Include the name of the `EXPORT` in the filename when generating export
information for C++ modules. This allows the same directory to be used
for multiple sets of C++ module-using targets.
For `export(TARGETS)` uses, generate a name based on the hash of the
concatenation of the target names involved with the `export()` call.
Fixes: #25609
When consuming exported targets which contain C++ modules, the consuming
project must be able to recompile BMI files using the original target's
flags. This is because a module source may use some private target usage
requirement but not want to propagate it to consumers. To facilitate
this, export the private information as necessary for consumers to be
able to perform the BMI compilations.
Calling `install(EXPORT)` with the `CXX_MODULES_DIRECTORY` parameter
leads to installation rules being generated which `include()` CMake
scripts that set the `IMPORTED_CXX_MODULES_[CONFIG]` target property for
relevant targets. However, these scripts don't get generated for
targets in an export set which don't have any C++20 modules. When the
installation rules attempt to `include()` the missing scripts, the
install fails.

Add this target property to specify macro names that propagate to
dependents as `AUTOMOC_MACRO_NAMES`. The dependents will automatically
generate MOC files for source files that contain the inherited macro
names.

C++ modules have two variants which are of importance to CMake:
- `CXX_MODULES`: interface modules (those using `export module M;`,
`export module M:part;`, or `module M:internal_part;`)
- `CXX_MODULE_HEADER_UNITS`: importable header units
Creating C++ modules or partitions are *not* supported in any other
source listing. This is because the source files must be installed (so
their scope matters), but not part of usage requirements (what it means
for a module source to be injected into a consumer is not clear at this
moment). Due to the way `FILE_SET` works with scopes, they are a perfect
fit as long as `INTERFACE` is not allowed (which it is not).
Previously a fileset with `$<$<CONFIG:Debug>:some_file>` would show up
as-is (with escaping) in the build directory export. Instead, evaluate
all fileset entries as generator expressions and list them as they are
similar to the installation information.
Allow `cmGlobalGenerator`s to decide `HasKnownObjectFileLocation()` per given
`cmTarget`
- `cmGlobalGenerator::HasKnownObjectFileLocation()` now takes an optional `cmGeneratorTarget`
- `cmTarget::HasKnownObjectFileLocation()` added as a shorthand
To handle safely the values used by CMake variables and properties,
introduce the class cmProp as a replacement from the simple pointer
to std::string instance.
Update the change from commit 64690f6df0 (export: Do not fail generation
for namelink-only case, 2020-10-09, v3.19.0-rc1~7^2) to also handle
separate namelink-only and namelink-skip calls.
Fixes: #21529
This patch is generated by a python script that uses regular expressions to
search for string concatenation patterns of the kind
```
std::string str = <ARG0>;
str += <ARG1>;
str += <ARG2>;
...
```
and replaces them with a single `cmStrCat` call
```
std::string str = cmStrCat(<ARG0>, <ARG1>, <ARG2>, ...);
```
If any `<ARGX>` is itself a concatenated string of the kind
```
a + b + c + ...;
```
then `<ARGX>` is split into multiple arguments for the `cmStrCat` call.
If there's a sequence of literals in the `<ARGX>`, then all literals in the
sequence are concatenated and merged into a single literal argument for
the `cmStrCat` call.
Single character strings are converted to single char arguments for
the `cmStrCat` call.
`std::to_string(...)` wrappings are removed from `cmStrCat` arguments,
because it supports numeric types as well as string types.
`arg.substr(x)` arguments to `cmStrCat` are replaced with
`cm::string_view(arg).substr(x)`
When an exported target depends on another exported target that is
included in multiple build export sets, the error message was woefully
unhelpful. Now, include information about what build exports the
dependent target was included in with instructions for fixing the
problem that are actually helpful.
These new capabilities enable to manage link directories
Two new properties:
* target properties: LINK_DIRECTORIES and INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES
One new command
* target_link_directories(): to populate target properties

* target properties: LINK_OPTIONS and INTERFACE_LINK_OPTIONS
Two new commands
* add_link_options(): to populate directory property
* target_link_options(): to populate target properties
Fixes: #16543
This change introduces an additional property that may be set on a
target to allow additional properties to be exported. Normally only a
limited number of properties are exported.
Additional properties may be exported by simply setting the
`EXPORT_PROPERTIES` property on a target that is exported.
Note: This only allows `OBJECT` libraries to be on the right-hand side
of `target_link_libraries` but still does not link its object-files to
the target on the left-hand side.
Issue: #14778
Teach the `install` and `export` commands to support installing and
exporting `OBJECT` libraries without their object files. Transform
them to `INTERFACE` libraries in such cases.
For `install(TARGETS)`, activate this when no destination for the object
files is specified. For `export`, activate this only under Xcode with
multiple architectures when we have no well-defined object file
locations to give to clients.
