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.
Closes: #4720
Previously, the configuration worked fine, but the compiler raised an
error. Now, we explicitly check for the existence of files and print a
useful error message if they do not exist.
This doesn't touch everything as it's just based on the python3 module
tests, ported to the python module. It's still better than the one very
basic test in the unit test module.
Since `_process_libs` appends the lib's dependencies this list already,
the final return value of `_process_libs` will end up after its
dependencies, which is the wrong way around. (The lib must come first,
then its dependencies)
The easiest solution is to simply pre-pend the return value of
`_process_libs` rather than appending it, so that its dependencies come
after the library itself.
Closes#4091.
