This allows the person running configure (either a developer, user, or
distro maintainer) to keep a configuration of where various kinds of
files should end up.
Instead of only doing a naive filesystem search, also run the linker
so that it can tell us whether the -F path specified actually contains
the framework we're looking for.
Unfortunately, `extraframework` searching is still not 100% correct in
the case when since we want to search in either /Library/Frameworks or
in /System/Library/Frameworks but not in both. The -Z flag disables
searching in those prefixes and would in theory allow this, but then
you cannot force the linker to look in those by manually adding -F
args, so that doesn't work.
This new cmake module allows to generate cmake package files. This may ease the
porting for cmake projects that are exporting cmake package informations for other
depending projects. The module uses as much as possible the templates provided by
the cmake installation (and so cmake needs to be installed).
A custom_target, if install is set to true, will always be built by
default even if build_by_default is explicitly set to false.
Ensure that this does not happen if it's set explicitly. To keep
backward compatibility, if build_by_default is not set explicitly and
install is true, set build_by_default to true.
Fixes#4107
* Fixed spelling
* Merged the Buildoptions and Projectinfo interpreter
* Moved detect_compilers to Environment
* Added removed test case
* Split detect_compilers and moved even more code into Environment
* Moved set_default_options to coredata
* Small code simplification in mintro.run
* Move cmd_line_options back to `environment`
We don't actually wish to persist something this unstructured, so we
shouldn't make it a field on `coredata`. It would also be data
denormalization since the information we already store in coredata
depends on the CLI args.
If a configure_file has an install_dir set, the supported install
argument is ignored, while this should have actually higher priority
than the install_dir itself.
Also check that correct types are used for `install` and `install_dir`.
Add test to verify this.
Fixes#3983
The documentation states: "In other cases you can get multi-line
statements by ending the line with a \." but that seems to never have
worked.
