| Name
| |
| | |
| cpack - Packaging driver provided by CMake.
| |
| | |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Usage
| |
| | |
| cpack -G <generator> [options]
| |
| | |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Description
| |
| | |
| The "cpack" executable is the CMake packaging program. CMake-generated build
| |
| trees created for projects that use the INSTALL_* commands have packaging
| |
| support. This program will generate the package.
| |
| | |
| CMake is a cross-platform build system generator. Projects specify their
| |
| build process with platform-independent CMake listfiles included in each
| |
| directory of a source tree with the name CMakeLists.txt. Users build a
| |
| project by using CMake to generate a build system for a native tool on their
| |
| platform.
| |
| | |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Options
| |
| | |
| -G <generator>
| |
| Use the specified generator to generate package.
| |
| | |
| CPack may support multiple native packaging systems on certain
| |
| platforms. A generator is responsible for generating input files for
| |
| particular system and invoking that systems. Possible generator names
| |
| are specified in the Generators section.
| |
| | |
| -C <Configuration>
| |
| Specify the project configuration
| |
| | |
| This option specifies the configuration that the project was build
| |
| with, for example 'Debug', 'Release'.
| |
| | |
| -D <var>=<value>
| |
| Set a CPack variable.
| |
| | |
| Set a variable that can be used by the generator.
| |
| | |
| --config <config file>
| |
| Specify the config file.
| |
| | |
| Specify the config file to use to create the package. By default
| |
| CPackConfig.cmake in the current directory will be used.

| | |
| --verbose,-V
| |
| enable verbose output
| |
| | |
| Run cpack with verbose output.
| |
| | |
| --debug
| |
| enable debug output (for CPack developers)
| |
| | |
| Run cpack with debug output (for CPack developers).
| |
| | |
| -P <package name>
| |
| override/define CPACK_PACKAGE_NAME
| |
| | |
| If the package name is not specified on cpack commmand line
| |
| thenCPack.cmake defines it as CMAKE_PROJECT_NAME
| |
| | |
| -R <package version>
| |
| override/define CPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION
| |
| | |
| If version is not specified on cpack command line thenCPack.cmake
| |
| defines it from CPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION_[MAJOR|MINOR|PATCH]look into
| |
| CPack.cmake for detail
| |
| | |
| -B <package directory>
| |
| override/define CPACK_PACKAGE_DIRECTORY
| |
| | |
| The directory where CPack will be doing its packaging work.The
| |
| resulting package will be found there. Inside this directoryCPack
| |
| creates '_CPack_Packages' sub-directory which is theCPack temporary
| |
| directory.
| |
| | |
| --vendor <vendor name>
| |
| override/define CPACK_PACKAGE_VENDOR
| |
| | |
| If vendor is not specified on cpack command line (or inside
| |
| CMakeLists.txt) thenCPack.cmake defines it with a default value

| Commands
| |
| | |
| cpack_add_component
| |
| Describes a CPack installation component named by the COMPONENT
| |
| argument to a CMake INSTALL command.
| |
| | |
| cpack_add_component(compname
| |
| [DISPLAY_NAME name]
| |
| [DESCRIPTION description]
| |
| [HIDDEN | REQUIRED | DISABLED ]
| |
| [GROUP group]
| |
| [DEPENDS comp1 comp2 ... ]
| |
| [INSTALL_TYPES type1 type2 ... ]
| |
| [DOWNLOADED]
| |
| [ARCHIVE_FILE filename])
| |
| | |
|
| |
| | |
| The cmake_add_component command describes an installation component,
| |
| which the user can opt to install or remove as part of the graphical
| |
| installation process. compname is the name of the component, as
| |
| provided to the COMPONENT argument of one or more CMake INSTALL
| |
| commands.
| |
| | |
| DISPLAY_NAME is the displayed name of the component, used in graphical
| |
| installers to display the component name. This value can be any
| |
| string.
| |
| | |
| DESCRIPTION is an extended description of the component, used in
| |
| graphical installers to give the user additional information about the
| |
| component. Descriptions can span multiple lines using "\n" as the
| |
| line separator. Typically, these descriptions should be no more than
| |
| a few lines long.
| |
| | |
| HIDDEN indicates that this component will be hidden in the graphical
| |
| installer, so that the user cannot directly change whether it is
| |
| installed or not.
| |
| | |
| REQUIRED indicates that this component is required, and therefore will
| |
| always be installed. It will be visible in the graphical installer,
| |
| but it cannot be unselected. (Typically, required components are
| |
| shown greyed out).
| |
| | |
| DISABLED indicates that this component should be disabled (unselected)
| |
| by default. The user is free to select this component for
| |
| installation, unless it is also HIDDEN.
| |
| | |
| DEPENDS lists the components on which this component depends. If this
| |
| component is selected, then each of the components listed must also be
| |
| selected. The dependency information is encoded within the installer
| |
| itself, so that users cannot install inconsistent sets of components.
| |
| | |
| GROUP names the component group of which this component is a part. If
| |
| not provided, the component will be a standalone component, not part
| |
| of any component group. Component groups are described with the
| |
| cpack_add_component_group command, detailed below.
| |
| | |
| INSTALL_TYPES lists the installation types of which this component is
| |
| a part. When one of these installations types is selected, this
| |
| component will automatically be selected. Installation types are
| |
| described with the cpack_add_install_type command, detailed below.
| |
| | |
| DOWNLOADED indicates that this component should be downloaded
| |
| on-the-fly by the installer, rather than packaged in with the
| |
| installer itself. For more information, see the
| |
| cpack_configure_downloads command.
| |
| | |
| ARCHIVE_FILE provides a name for the archive file created by CPack to
| |
| be used for downloaded components. If not supplied, CPack will create
| |
| a file with some name based on CPACK_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME and the name of
| |
| the component. See cpack_configure_downloads for more information.
| |
| | |
| cpack_add_component_group
| |
| Describes a group of related CPack installation components.
| |
| | |
| cpack_add_component_group(groupname
| |
| [DISPLAY_NAME name]
| |
| [DESCRIPTION description]
| |
| [PARENT_GROUP parent]
| |
| [EXPANDED]
| |
| [BOLD_TITLE])
| |
| | |
|
| |
| | |
| The cpack_add_component_group describes a group of installation
| |
| components, which will be placed together within the listing of
| |
| options. Typically, component groups allow the user to
| |
| select/deselect all of the components within a single group via a
| |
| single group-level option. Use component groups to reduce the
| |
| complexity of installers with many options. groupname is an arbitrary
| |
| name used to identify the group in the GROUP argument of the
| |
| cpack_add_component command, which is used to place a component in a
| |
| group. The name of the group must not conflict with the name of any
| |
| component.
| |
| | |
| DISPLAY_NAME is the displayed name of the component group, used in
| |
| graphical installers to display the component group name. This value
| |
| can be any string.
| |
| | |
| DESCRIPTION is an extended description of the component group, used in
| |
| graphical installers to give the user additional information about the
| |
| components within that group. Descriptions can span multiple lines
| |
| using "\n" as the line separator. Typically, these descriptions
| |
| should be no more than a few lines long.
| |
| | |
| PARENT_GROUP, if supplied, names the parent group of this group.
| |
| Parent groups are used to establish a hierarchy of groups, providing
| |
| an arbitrary hierarchy of groups.
| |
| | |
| EXPANDED indicates that, by default, the group should show up as
| |
| "expanded", so that the user immediately sees all of the components
| |
| within the group. Otherwise, the group will initially show up as a
| |
| single entry.
| |
| | |
| BOLD_TITLE indicates that the group title should appear in bold, to
| |
| call the user's attention to the group.
| |
| | |
| cpack_add_install_type
| |
| Add a new installation type containing a set of predefined component
| |
| selections to the graphical installer.
| |
| | |
| cpack_add_install_type(typename
| |
| [DISPLAY_NAME name])
| |
| | |
|
| |
| | |
| The cpack_add_install_type command identifies a set of preselected
| |
| components that represents a common use case for an application. For
| |
| example, a "Developer" install type might include an application along
| |
| with its header and library files, while an "End user" install type
| |
| might just include the application's executable. Each component
| |
| identifies itself with one or more install types via the INSTALL_TYPES
| |
| argument to cpack_add_component.
| |
| | |
| DISPLAY_NAME is the displayed name of the install type, which will
| |
| typically show up in a drop-down box within a graphical installer.
| |
| This value can be any string.
| |
| | |
| cpack_configure_downloads
| |
| Configure CPack to download selected components on-the-fly as part of
| |
| the installation process.
| |
| | |
| cpack_configure_downloads(site
| |
| [UPLOAD_DIRECTORY dirname]
| |
| [ALL]
| |
| [ADD_REMOVE|NO_ADD_REMOVE])
| |
| | |
|
| |
| | |
| The cpack_configure_downloads command configures installation-time
| |
| downloads of selected components. For each downloadable component,
| |
| CPack will create an archive containing the contents of that
| |
| component, which should be uploaded to the given site. When the user
| |
| selects that component for installation, the installer will download
| |
| and extract the component in place. This feature is useful for
| |
| creating small installers that only download the requested components,
| |
| saving bandwidth. Additionally, the installers are small enough that
| |
| they will be installed as part of the normal installation process, and
| |
| the "Change" button in Windows Add/Remove Programs control panel will
| |
| allow one to add or remove parts of the application after the original
| |
| installation. On Windows, the downloaded-components functionality
| |
| requires the ZipDLL plug-in for NSIS, available at:
| |
| | |
| http://nsis.sourceforge.net/ZipDLL_plug-in
| |
| | |
|
| |
| | |
| On Mac OS X, installers that download components on-the-fly can only
| |
| be built and installed on system using Mac OS X 10.5 or later.
| |
| | |
| The site argument is a URL where the archives for downloadable
| |
| components will reside, e.g.,
| |
| http://www.cmake.org/files/2.6.1/installer/ All of the archives
| |
| produced by CPack should be uploaded to that location.
| |
| | |
| UPLOAD_DIRECTORY is the local directory where CPack will create the
| |
| various archives for each of the components. The contents of this
| |
| directory should be uploaded to a location accessible by the URL given
| |
| in the site argument. If omitted, CPack will use the directory
| |
| CPackUploads inside the CMake binary directory to store the generated
| |
| archives.
| |
| | |
| The ALL flag indicates that all components be downloaded. Otherwise,
| |
| only those components explicitly marked as DOWNLOADED or that have a
| |
| specified ARCHIVE_FILE will be downloaded. Additionally, the ALL
| |
| option implies ADD_REMOVE (unless NO_ADD_REMOVE is specified).
| |
| | |
| ADD_REMOVE indicates that CPack should install a copy of the installer
| |
| that can be called from Windows' Add/Remove Programs dialog (via the
| |
| "Modify" button) to change the set of installed components.
| |
| NO_ADD_REMOVE turns off this behavior. This option is ignored on Mac
| |
| OS X.
| |
| | |
| break
| |
| Break from an enclosing foreach or while loop.
| |
| | |
| break()
| |
| | |
| Breaks from an enclosing foreach loop or while loop
| |
| | |
| cmake_minimum_required
| |
| Set the minimum required version of cmake for a project.
| |
| | |
| cmake_minimum_required(VERSION major[.minor[.patch[.tweak]]]
| |
| [FATAL_ERROR])
| |
| | |
| If the current version of CMake is lower than that required it will
| |
| stop processing the project and report an error. When a version
| |
| higher than 2.4 is specified the command implicitly invokes
| |
| | |
| cmake_policy(VERSION major[.minor[.patch[.tweak]]])
| |
| | |
| which sets the cmake policy version level to the version specified.
| |
| When version 2.4 or lower is given the command implicitly invokes
| |
| | |
| cmake_policy(VERSION 2.4)
| |
| | |
| which enables compatibility features for CMake 2.4 and lower.
| |
| | |
| The FATAL_ERROR option is accepted but ignored by CMake 2.6 and
| |
| higher. It should be specified so CMake versions 2.4 and lower fail
| |
| with an error instead of just a warning.
| |
| | |
| cmake_policy
| |
| Manage CMake Policy settings.
| |
| | |
| As CMake evolves it is sometimes necessary to change existing behavior
| |
| in order to fix bugs or improve implementations of existing features.
| |
| The CMake Policy mechanism is designed to help keep existing projects
| |
| building as new versions of CMake introduce changes in behavior. Each
| |
| new policy (behavioral change) is given an identifier of the form
| |
| "CMP<NNNN>" where "<NNNN>" is an integer index. Documentation
| |
| associated with each policy describes the OLD and NEW behavior and the
| |
| reason the policy was introduced. Projects may set each policy to
| |
| select the desired behavior. When CMake needs to know which behavior
| |
| to use it checks for a setting specified by the project. If no
| |
| setting is available the OLD behavior is assumed and a warning is
| |
| produced requesting that the policy be set.
| |
| | |
| The cmake_policy command is used to set policies to OLD or NEW
| |
| behavior. While setting policies individually is supported, we
| |
| encourage projects to set policies based on CMake versions.
| |
| | |
| cmake_policy(VERSION major.minor[.patch[.tweak]])
| |
| | |
| Specify that the current CMake list file is written for the given
| |
| version of CMake. All policies introduced in the specified version or
| |
| earlier will be set to use NEW behavior. All policies introduced
| |
| after the specified version will be unset (unless variable
| |
| CMAKE_POLICY_DEFAULT_CMP<NNNN> sets a default). This effectively
| |
| requests behavior preferred as of a given CMake version and tells
| |
| newer CMake versions to warn about their new policies. The policy
| |
| version specified must be at least 2.4 or the command will report an
| |
| error. In order to get compatibility features supporting versions
| |
| earlier than 2.4 see documentation of policy CMP0001.
| |
| | |
| cmake_policy(SET CMP<NNNN> NEW)
| |
| cmake_policy(SET CMP<NNNN> OLD)
| |
| | |
| Tell CMake to use the OLD or NEW behavior for a given policy.
| |
| Projects depending on the old behavior of a given policy may silence a
| |
| policy warning by setting the policy state to OLD. Alternatively one
| |
| may fix the project to work with the new behavior and set the policy
| |
| state to NEW.
| |
| | |
| cmake_policy(GET CMP<NNNN> <variable>)
| |
| | |
| Check whether a given policy is set to OLD or NEW behavior. The
| |
| output variable value will be "OLD" or "NEW" if the policy is set, and
| |
| empty otherwise.
| |
| | |
| CMake keeps policy settings on a stack, so changes made by the
| |
| cmake_policy command affect only the top of the stack. A new entry on
| |
| the policy stack is managed automatically for each subdirectory to
| |
| protect its parents and siblings. CMake also manages a new entry for
| |
| scripts loaded by include() and find_package() commands except when
| |
| invoked with the NO_POLICY_SCOPE option (see also policy CMP0011).
| |
| The cmake_policy command provides an interface to manage custom
| |
| entries on the policy stack:
| |
| | |
| cmake_policy(PUSH)
| |
| cmake_policy(POP)
| |
| | |
| Each PUSH must have a matching POP to erase any changes. This is
| |
| useful to make temporary changes to policy settings.
| |
| | |
| Functions and macros record policy settings when they are created and
| |
| use the pre-record policies when they are invoked. If the function or
| |
| macro implementation sets policies, the changes automatically
| |
| propagate up through callers until they reach the closest nested
| |
| policy stack entry.
| |
| | |
| configure_file
| |
| Copy a file to another location and modify its contents.
| |
| | |
| configure_file(<input> <output>
| |
| [COPYONLY] [ESCAPE_QUOTES] [@ONLY]
| |
| [NEWLINE_STYLE [UNIX|DOS|WIN32|LF|CRLF] ])
| |
| | |
| Copies a file <input> to file <output> and substitutes variable values
| |
| referenced in the file content. If <input> is a relative path it is
| |
| evaluated with respect to the current source directory. The <input>
| |
| must be a file, not a directory. If <output> is a relative path it is
| |
| evaluated with respect to the current binary directory. If <output>
| |
| names an existing directory the input file is placed in that directory
| |
| with its original name.
| |
| | |
| If the <input> file is modified the build system will re-run CMake to
| |
| re-configure the file and generate the build system again.
| |
| | |
| This command replaces any variables in the input file referenced as
| |
| ${VAR} or @VAR@ with their values as determined by CMake. If a
| |
| variable is not defined, it will be replaced with nothing. If
| |
| COPYONLY is specified, then no variable expansion will take place. If
| |
| ESCAPE_QUOTES is specified then any substituted quotes will be C-style
| |
| escaped. The file will be configured with the current values of CMake
| |
| variables. If @ONLY is specified, only variables of the form @VAR@
| |
| will be replaced and ${VAR} will be ignored. This is useful for
| |
| configuring scripts that use ${VAR}.
| |
| | |
| Input file lines of the form "#cmakedefine VAR ..." will be replaced
| |
| with either "#define VAR ..." or "/* #undef VAR */" depending on
| |
| whether VAR is set in CMake to any value not considered a false
| |
| constant by the if() command. (Content of "...", if any, is processed
| |
| as above.) Input file lines of the form "#cmakedefine01 VAR" will be
| |
| replaced with either "#define VAR 1" or "#define VAR 0" similarly.
| |
| | |
| With NEWLINE_STYLE the line ending could be adjusted:
| |
| | |
| 'UNIX' or 'LF' for \n, 'DOS', 'WIN32' or 'CRLF' for \r\n.
| |
| | |
| COPYONLY must not be used with NEWLINE_STYLE.

| Runs the given sequence of one or more commands with the standard
| |
| output of each process piped to the standard input of the next. A
| |
| single standard error pipe is used for all processes. If
| |
| WORKING_DIRECTORY is given the named directory will be set as the
| |
| current working directory of the child processes. If TIMEOUT is given
| |
| the child processes will be terminated if they do not finish in the
| |
| specified number of seconds (fractions are allowed). If
| |
| RESULT_VARIABLE is given the variable will be set to contain the
| |
| result of running the processes. This will be an integer return code
| |
| from the last child or a string describing an error condition. If
| |
| OUTPUT_VARIABLE or ERROR_VARIABLE are given the variable named will be
| |
| set with the contents of the standard output and standard error pipes
| |
| respectively. If the same variable is named for both pipes their
| |
| output will be merged in the order produced. If INPUT_FILE,
| |
| OUTPUT_FILE, or ERROR_FILE is given the file named will be attached to
| |
| the standard input of the first process, standard output of the last
| |
| process, or standard error of all processes respectively. If
| |
| OUTPUT_QUIET or ERROR_QUIET is given then the standard output or
| |
| standard error results will be quietly ignored. If more than one
| |
| OUTPUT_* or ERROR_* option is given for the same pipe the precedence
| |
| is not specified. If no OUTPUT_* or ERROR_* options are given the
| |
| output will be shared with the corresponding pipes of the CMake

| | |
| WRITE will write a message into a file called 'filename'. It
| |
| overwrites the file if it already exists, and creates the file if it
| |
| does not exist. (If the file is a build input, use configure_file to
| |
| update the file only when its content changes.)
| |
| | |
| APPEND will write a message into a file same as WRITE, except it will
| |
| append it to the end of the file
| |
| | |
| READ will read the content of a file and store it into the variable.
| |
| It will start at the given offset and read up to numBytes. If the
| |
| argument HEX is given, the binary data will be converted to
| |
| hexadecimal representation and this will be stored in the variable.
| |
| | |
| MD5, SHA1, SHA224, SHA256, SHA384, and SHA512 will compute a
| |
| cryptographic hash of the content of a file.
| |
| | |
| STRINGS will parse a list of ASCII strings from a file and store it in
| |
| a variable. Binary data in the file are ignored. Carriage return
| |
| (CR) characters are ignored. It works also for Intel Hex and Motorola
| |
| S-record files, which are automatically converted to binary format
| |
| when reading them. Disable this using NO_HEX_CONVERSION.
| |
| | |
| LIMIT_COUNT sets the maximum number of strings to return. LIMIT_INPUT
| |
| sets the maximum number of bytes to read from the input file.
| |
| LIMIT_OUTPUT sets the maximum number of bytes to store in the output
| |
| variable. LENGTH_MINIMUM sets the minimum length of a string to
| |
| return. Shorter strings are ignored. LENGTH_MAXIMUM sets the maximum
| |
| length of a string to return. Longer strings are split into strings
| |
| no longer than the maximum length. NEWLINE_CONSUME allows newlines to
| |
| be included in strings instead of terminating them.
| |
| | |
| REGEX specifies a regular expression that a string must match to be
| |
| returned. Typical usage
| |
| | |
| file(STRINGS myfile.txt myfile)
| |
| | |
| stores a list in the variable "myfile" in which each item is a line
| |
| from the input file.
| |
| | |
| GLOB will generate a list of all files that match the globbing
| |
| expressions and store it into the variable. Globbing expressions are
| |
| similar to regular expressions, but much simpler. If RELATIVE flag is
| |
| specified for an expression, the results will be returned as a
| |
| relative path to the given path. (We do not recommend using GLOB to
| |
| collect a list of source files from your source tree. If no
| |
| CMakeLists.txt file changes when a source is added or removed then the
| |
| generated build system cannot know when to ask CMake to regenerate.)
| |
| | |
| Examples of globbing expressions include:
| |
| | |
| *.cxx - match all files with extension cxx
| |
| *.vt? - match all files with extension vta,...,vtz
| |
| f[3-5].txt - match files f3.txt, f4.txt, f5.txt
| |
| | |
| GLOB_RECURSE will generate a list similar to the regular GLOB, except
| |
| it will traverse all the subdirectories of the matched directory and
| |
| match the files. Subdirectories that are symlinks are only traversed
| |
| if FOLLOW_SYMLINKS is given or cmake policy CMP0009 is not set to NEW.
| |
| See cmake --help-policy CMP0009 for more information.
| |
| | |
| Examples of recursive globbing include:
| |
| | |
| /dir/*.py - match all python files in /dir and subdirectories
| |
| | |
| MAKE_DIRECTORY will create the given directories, also if their parent
| |
| directories don't exist yet
| |
| | |
| RENAME moves a file or directory within a filesystem, replacing the
| |
| destination atomically.
| |
| | |
| REMOVE will remove the given files, also in subdirectories
| |
| | |
| REMOVE_RECURSE will remove the given files and directories, also
| |
| non-empty directories
| |
| | |
| RELATIVE_PATH will determine relative path from directory to the given
| |
| file.
| |
| | |
| TO_CMAKE_PATH will convert path into a cmake style path with unix /.
| |
| The input can be a single path or a system path like "$ENV{PATH}".
| |
| Note the double quotes around the ENV call TO_CMAKE_PATH only takes
| |
| one argument. This command will also convert the native list
| |
| delimiters for a list of paths like the PATH environment variable.
| |
| | |
| TO_NATIVE_PATH works just like TO_CMAKE_PATH, but will convert from a
| |
| cmake style path into the native path style \ for windows and / for
| |
| UNIX.
| |
| | |
| DOWNLOAD will download the given URL to the given file. If LOG var is
| |
| specified a log of the download will be put in var. If STATUS var is
| |
| specified the status of the operation will be put in var. The status
| |
| is returned in a list of length 2. The first element is the numeric
| |
| return value for the operation, and the second element is a string
| |
| value for the error. A 0 numeric error means no error in the
| |
| operation. If TIMEOUT time is specified, the operation will timeout
| |
| after time seconds, time should be specified as an integer. The
| |
| INACTIVITY_TIMEOUT specifies an integer number of seconds of
| |
| inactivity after which the operation should terminate. If
| |
| EXPECTED_HASH ALGO=value is specified, the operation will verify that
| |
| the downloaded file's actual hash matches the expected value, where
| |
| ALGO is one of MD5, SHA1, SHA224, SHA256, SHA384, or SHA512. If it
| |
| does not match, the operation fails with an error. ("EXPECTED_MD5
| |
| sum" is short-hand for "EXPECTED_HASH MD5=sum".) If SHOW_PROGRESS is
| |
| specified, progress information will be printed as status messages
| |
| until the operation is complete. For https URLs CMake must be built
| |
| with OpenSSL. TLS/SSL certificates are not checked by default. Set
| |
| TLS_VERIFY to ON to check certificates and/or use EXPECTED_HASH to
| |
| verify downloaded content. Set TLS_CAINFO to specify a custom
| |
| Certificate Authority file. If either TLS option is not given CMake
| |
| will check variables CMAKE_TLS_VERIFY and CMAKE_TLS_CAINFO,
| |
| respectively.
| |
| | |
| UPLOAD will upload the given file to the given URL. If LOG var is
| |
| specified a log of the upload will be put in var. If STATUS var is
| |
| specified the status of the operation will be put in var. The status
| |
| is returned in a list of length 2. The first element is the numeric
| |
| return value for the operation, and the second element is a string
| |
| value for the error. A 0 numeric error means no error in the
| |
| operation. If TIMEOUT time is specified, the operation will timeout
| |
| after time seconds, time should be specified as an integer. The
| |
| INACTIVITY_TIMEOUT specifies an integer number of seconds of
| |
| inactivity after which the operation should terminate. If
| |
| SHOW_PROGRESS is specified, progress information will be printed as
| |
| status messages until the operation is complete.
| |
| | |
| TIMESTAMP will write a string representation of the modification time
| |
| of filename to variable.
| |
| | |
| Should the command be unable to obtain a timestamp variable will be
| |
| set to the empty string "".
| |
| | |
| See documentation of the string TIMESTAMP sub-command for more
| |
| details.
| |
| | |
| The file() command also provides COPY and INSTALL signatures:
| |
| | |
| file(<COPY|INSTALL> files... DESTINATION <dir>
| |
| [FILE_PERMISSIONS permissions...]
| |
| [DIRECTORY_PERMISSIONS permissions...]
| |
| [NO_SOURCE_PERMISSIONS] [USE_SOURCE_PERMISSIONS]
| |
| [FILES_MATCHING]
| |
| [[PATTERN <pattern> | REGEX <regex>]
| |
| [EXCLUDE] [PERMISSIONS permissions...]] [...])
| |
| | |
| The COPY signature copies files, directories, and symlinks to a
| |
| destination folder. Relative input paths are evaluated with respect
| |
| to the current source directory, and a relative destination is
| |
| evaluated with respect to the current build directory. Copying
| |
| preserves input file timestamps, and optimizes out a file if it exists
| |
| at the destination with the same timestamp. Copying preserves input
| |
| permissions unless explicit permissions or NO_SOURCE_PERMISSIONS are
| |
| given (default is USE_SOURCE_PERMISSIONS). See the install(DIRECTORY)
| |
| command for documentation of permissions, PATTERN, REGEX, and EXCLUDE
| |
| options.
| |
| | |
| The INSTALL signature differs slightly from COPY: it prints status
| |
| messages, and NO_SOURCE_PERMISSIONS is default. Installation scripts
| |
| generated by the install() command use this signature (with some
| |
| undocumented options for internal use).
| |
| | |
| find_file
| |
| Find the full path to a file.
| |
| | |
| find_file(<VAR> name1 [path1 path2 ...])
| |
| | |
| This is the short-hand signature for the command that is sufficient in
| |
| many cases. It is the same as find_file(<VAR> name1 [PATHS path1
| |
| path2 ...])
| |
| | |
| find_file(
| |
| <VAR>
| |
| name | NAMES name1 [name2 ...]
| |
| [HINTS path1 [path2 ... ENV var]]
| |
| [PATHS path1 [path2 ... ENV var]]
| |
| [PATH_SUFFIXES suffix1 [suffix2 ...]]
| |
| [DOC "cache documentation string"]
| |
| [NO_DEFAULT_PATH]
| |
| [NO_CMAKE_ENVIRONMENT_PATH]
| |
| [NO_CMAKE_PATH]
| |
| [NO_SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT_PATH]
| |
| [NO_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PATH]
| |

| |
| ONLY_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH |
| |
| NO_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH]
| |
| )
| |
| | |
| This command is used to find a full path to named file. A cache entry
| |
| named by <VAR> is created to store the result of this command. If the
| |
| full path to a file is found the result is stored in the variable and
| |
| the search will not be repeated unless the variable is cleared. If
| |
| nothing is found, the result will be <VAR>-NOTFOUND, and the search
| |
| will be attempted again the next time find_file is invoked with the
| |
| same variable. The name of the full path to a file that is searched
| |
| for is specified by the names listed after the NAMES argument.
| |
| Additional search locations can be specified after the PATHS argument.
| |
| If ENV var is found in the HINTS or PATHS section the environment
| |
| variable var will be read and converted from a system environment
| |
| variable to a cmake style list of paths. For example ENV PATH would
| |
| be a way to list the system path variable. The argument after DOC
| |
| will be used for the documentation string in the cache. PATH_SUFFIXES
| |
| specifies additional subdirectories to check below each search path.
| |
| | |
| If NO_DEFAULT_PATH is specified, then no additional paths are added to
| |
| the search. If NO_DEFAULT_PATH is not specified, the search process
| |
| is as follows:
| |
| | |
| 1. Search paths specified in cmake-specific cache variables. These
| |
| are intended to be used on the command line with a -DVAR=value. This
| |
| can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_PATH is passed.
| |
| | |
| <prefix>/include/<arch> if CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE is set, and
| |
| <prefix>/include for each <prefix> in CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_FRAMEWORK_PATH
| |
| | |
| 2. Search paths specified in cmake-specific environment variables.
| |
| These are intended to be set in the user's shell configuration. This
| |
| can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_ENVIRONMENT_PATH is passed.
| |
| | |
| <prefix>/include/<arch> if CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE is set, and
| |
| <prefix>/include for each <prefix> in CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_FRAMEWORK_PATH
| |
| | |
| 3. Search the paths specified by the HINTS option. These should be
| |
| paths computed by system introspection, such as a hint provided by the
| |
| location of another item already found. Hard-coded guesses should be
| |
| specified with the PATHS option.
| |
| | |
| 4. Search the standard system environment variables. This can be
| |
| skipped if NO_SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT_PATH is an argument.
| |
| | |
| PATH
| |
| INCLUDE
| |
| | |
| 5. Search cmake variables defined in the Platform files for the
| |
| current system. This can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PATH is
| |
| passed.
| |
| | |
| <prefix>/include/<arch> if CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE is set, and
| |
| <prefix>/include for each <prefix> in CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_FRAMEWORK_PATH
| |
| | |
| 6. Search the paths specified by the PATHS option or in the
| |
| short-hand version of the command. These are typically hard-coded
| |
| guesses.
| |
| | |
| On Darwin or systems supporting OS X Frameworks, the cmake variable
| |
| CMAKE_FIND_FRAMEWORK can be set to empty or one of the following:
| |
| | |
| "FIRST" - Try to find frameworks before standard
| |
| libraries or headers. This is the default on Darwin.
| |
| "LAST" - Try to find frameworks after standard
| |
| libraries or headers.
| |
| "ONLY" - Only try to find frameworks.
| |
| "NEVER" - Never try to find frameworks.
| |
| | |
| On Darwin or systems supporting OS X Application Bundles, the cmake
| |
| variable CMAKE_FIND_APPBUNDLE can be set to empty or one of the
| |
| following:
| |
| | |
| "FIRST" - Try to find application bundles before standard
| |
| programs. This is the default on Darwin.
| |
| "LAST" - Try to find application bundles after standard
| |
| programs.
| |
| "ONLY" - Only try to find application bundles.
| |
| "NEVER" - Never try to find application bundles.
| |
| | |
| The CMake variable CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH specifies one or more
| |
| directories to be prepended to all other search directories. This
| |
| effectively "re-roots" the entire search under given locations. By
| |
| default it is empty. It is especially useful when cross-compiling to
| |
| point to the root directory of the target environment and CMake will
| |
| search there too. By default at first the directories listed in
| |
| CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH and then the non-rooted directories will be
| |
| searched. The default behavior can be adjusted by setting
| |
| CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_INCLUDE. This behavior can be manually
| |
| overridden on a per-call basis. By using CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_BOTH
| |
| the search order will be as described above. If
| |
| NO_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH is used then CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH will not be
| |
| used. If ONLY_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH is used then only the re-rooted
| |
| directories will be searched.
| |
| | |
| The default search order is designed to be most-specific to
| |
| least-specific for common use cases. Projects may override the order
| |
| by simply calling the command multiple times and using the NO_*
| |
| options:
| |
| | |
| find_file(<VAR> NAMES name PATHS paths... NO_DEFAULT_PATH)
| |
| find_file(<VAR> NAMES name)
| |
| | |
| Once one of the calls succeeds the result variable will be set and
| |
| stored in the cache so that no call will search again.
| |
| | |
| find_library
| |
| Find a library.
| |
| | |
| find_library(<VAR> name1 [path1 path2 ...])
| |
| | |
| This is the short-hand signature for the command that is sufficient in
| |
| many cases. It is the same as find_library(<VAR> name1 [PATHS path1
| |
| path2 ...])
| |
| | |
| find_library(
| |
| <VAR>
| |
| name | NAMES name1 [name2 ...] [NAMES_PER_DIR]

| [HINTS path1 [path2 ... ENV var]]
| |
| [PATHS path1 [path2 ... ENV var]]

| |
| [CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_BOTH |
| |
| ONLY_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH |
| |
| NO_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH]
| |
| )
| |
| | |
| This command is used to find a library. A cache entry named by <VAR>
| |
| is created to store the result of this command. If the library is
| |
| found the result is stored in the variable and the search will not be
| |
| repeated unless the variable is cleared. If nothing is found, the
| |
| result will be <VAR>-NOTFOUND, and the search will be attempted again
| |
| the next time find_library is invoked with the same variable. The
| |
| name of the library that is searched for is specified by the names
| |
| listed after the NAMES argument. Additional search locations can be
| |
| specified after the PATHS argument. If ENV var is found in the HINTS
| |
| or PATHS section the environment variable var will be read and
| |
| converted from a system environment variable to a cmake style list of
| |
| paths. For example ENV PATH would be a way to list the system path
| |
| variable. The argument after DOC will be used for the documentation
| |
| string in the cache. PATH_SUFFIXES specifies additional
| |
| subdirectories to check below each search path.
| |
| | |
| If NO_DEFAULT_PATH is specified, then no additional paths are added to
| |
| the search. If NO_DEFAULT_PATH is not specified, the search process
| |
| is as follows:

| CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_FRAMEWORK_PATH
| |
| | |
| 2. Search paths specified in cmake-specific environment variables.
| |
| These are intended to be set in the user's shell configuration. This
| |
| can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_ENVIRONMENT_PATH is passed.
| |
| | |
| <prefix>/lib/<arch> if CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE is set, and

| |
| | |
| 3. Search the paths specified by the HINTS option. These should be

| |
| skipped if NO_SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT_PATH is an argument.
| |
| | |
| PATH
| |
| LIB
| |
| | |
| 5. Search cmake variables defined in the Platform files for the

| current system. This can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PATH is
| |
| passed.
| |
| | |
| <prefix>/lib/<arch> if CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE is set, and

| <prefix>/lib for each <prefix> in CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_FRAMEWORK_PATH
| |
| | |
| 6. Search the paths specified by the PATHS option or in the

| | |
| find_library(<VAR> NAMES name PATHS paths... NO_DEFAULT_PATH)
| |
| find_library(<VAR> NAMES name)
| |
| | |
| Once one of the calls succeeds the result variable will be set and
| |
| stored in the cache so that no call will search again.
| |
| | |
| When more than one value is given to the NAMES option this command by
| |
| default will consider one name at a time and search every directory
| |
| for it. The NAMES_PER_DIR option tells this command to consider one
| |
| directory at a time and search for all names in it.
| |
| | |
| If the library found is a framework, then VAR will be set to the full
| |
| path to the framework <fullPath>/A.framework. When a full path to a
| |
| framework is used as a library, CMake will use a -framework A, and a
| |
| -F<fullPath> to link the framework to the target.
| |
| | |
| If the global property FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIB64_PATHS is set all search
| |
| paths will be tested as normal, with "64/" appended, and with all
| |
| matches of "lib/" replaced with "lib64/". This property is
| |
| automatically set for the platforms that are known to need it if at
| |
| least one of the languages supported by the PROJECT command is
| |
| enabled.
| |
| | |
| find_package
| |
| Load settings for an external project.
| |
| | |
| find_package(<package> [version] [EXACT] [QUIET] [MODULE]
| |
| [REQUIRED] [[COMPONENTS] [components...]]
| |
| [OPTIONAL_COMPONENTS components...]
| |
| [NO_POLICY_SCOPE])
| |
| | |
| Finds and loads settings from an external project. <package>_FOUND
| |
| will be set to indicate whether the package was found. When the
| |
| package is found package-specific information is provided through
| |
| variables and imported targets documented by the package itself. The
| |
| QUIET option disables messages if the package cannot be found. The
| |
| MODULE option disables the second signature documented below. The
| |
| REQUIRED option stops processing with an error message if the package
| |
| cannot be found.
| |
| | |
| A package-specific list of required components may be listed after the
| |
| COMPONENTS option (or after the REQUIRED option if present).
| |
| Additional optional components may be listed after
| |
| OPTIONAL_COMPONENTS. Available components and their influence on
| |
| whether a package is considered to be found are defined by the target
| |
| package.
| |
| | |
| The [version] argument requests a version with which the package found
| |
| should be compatible (format is major[.minor[.patch[.tweak]]]). The
| |
| EXACT option requests that the version be matched exactly. If no
| |
| [version] and/or component list is given to a recursive invocation
| |
| inside a find-module, the corresponding arguments are forwarded
| |
| automatically from the outer call (including the EXACT flag for
| |
| [version]). Version support is currently provided only on a
| |
| package-by-package basis (details below).
| |
| | |
| User code should generally look for packages using the above simple
| |
| signature. The remainder of this command documentation specifies the
| |
| full command signature and details of the search process. Project
| |
| maintainers wishing to provide a package to be found by this command
| |
| are encouraged to read on.
| |
| | |
| The command has two modes by which it searches for packages: "Module"
| |
| mode and "Config" mode. Module mode is available when the command is
| |
| invoked with the above reduced signature. CMake searches for a file
| |
| called "Find<package>.cmake" in the CMAKE_MODULE_PATH followed by the
| |
| CMake installation. If the file is found, it is read and processed by
| |
| CMake. It is responsible for finding the package, checking the
| |
| version, and producing any needed messages. Many find-modules provide
| |
| limited or no support for versioning; check the module documentation.
| |
| If no module is found and the MODULE option is not given the command
| |
| proceeds to Config mode.
| |
| | |
| The complete Config mode command signature is:
| |
| | |
| find_package(<package> [version] [EXACT] [QUIET]
| |
| [REQUIRED] [[COMPONENTS] [components...]]
| |
| [CONFIG|NO_MODULE]
| |
| [NO_POLICY_SCOPE]
| |
| [NAMES name1 [name2 ...]]
| |
| [CONFIGS config1 [config2 ...]]
| |
| [HINTS path1 [path2 ... ]]
| |
| [PATHS path1 [path2 ... ]]
| |
| [PATH_SUFFIXES suffix1 [suffix2 ...]]
| |
| [NO_DEFAULT_PATH]
| |
| [NO_CMAKE_ENVIRONMENT_PATH]
| |
| [NO_CMAKE_PATH]
| |
| [NO_SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT_PATH]
| |
| [NO_CMAKE_PACKAGE_REGISTRY]
| |
| [NO_CMAKE_BUILDS_PATH]
| |
| [NO_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PATH]
| |
| [NO_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PACKAGE_REGISTRY]
| |
| [CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_BOTH |
| |
| ONLY_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH |
| |
| NO_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH])
| |
| | |
| The CONFIG option may be used to skip Module mode explicitly and
| |
| switch to Config mode. It is synonymous to using NO_MODULE. Config
| |
| mode is also implied by use of options not specified in the reduced
| |
| signature.
| |
| | |
| Config mode attempts to locate a configuration file provided by the
| |
| package to be found. A cache entry called <package>_DIR is created to
| |
| hold the directory containing the file. By default the command
| |
| searches for a package with the name <package>. If the NAMES option
| |
| is given the names following it are used instead of <package>. The
| |
| command searches for a file called "<name>Config.cmake" or
| |
| "<lower-case-name>-config.cmake" for each name specified. A
| |
| replacement set of possible configuration file names may be given
| |
| using the CONFIGS option. The search procedure is specified below.
| |
| Once found, the configuration file is read and processed by CMake.
| |
| Since the file is provided by the package it already knows the
| |
| location of package contents. The full path to the configuration file
| |
| is stored in the cmake variable <package>_CONFIG.
| |
| | |
| All configuration files which have been considered by CMake while
| |
| searching for an installation of the package with an appropriate
| |
| version are stored in the cmake variable <package>_CONSIDERED_CONFIGS,
| |
| the associated versions in <package>_CONSIDERED_VERSIONS.
| |
| | |
| If the package configuration file cannot be found CMake will generate
| |
| an error describing the problem unless the QUIET argument is
| |
| specified. If REQUIRED is specified and the package is not found a
| |
| fatal error is generated and the configure step stops executing. If
| |
| <package>_DIR has been set to a directory not containing a
| |
| configuration file CMake will ignore it and search from scratch.
| |
| | |
| When the [version] argument is given Config mode will only find a
| |
| version of the package that claims compatibility with the requested
| |
| version (format is major[.minor[.patch[.tweak]]]). If the EXACT
| |
| option is given only a version of the package claiming an exact match
| |
| of the requested version may be found. CMake does not establish any
| |
| convention for the meaning of version numbers. Package version
| |
| numbers are checked by "version" files provided by the packages
| |
| themselves. For a candidate package configuration file
| |
| "<config-file>.cmake" the corresponding version file is located next
| |
| to it and named either "<config-file>-version.cmake" or
| |
| "<config-file>Version.cmake". If no such version file is available
| |
| then the configuration file is assumed to not be compatible with any
| |
| requested version. A basic version file containing generic version
| |
| matching code can be created using the macro
| |
| write_basic_package_version_file(), see its documentation for more
| |
| details. When a version file is found it is loaded to check the
| |
| requested version number. The version file is loaded in a nested
| |
| scope in which the following variables have been defined:
| |
| | |
| PACKAGE_FIND_NAME = the <package> name
| |
| PACKAGE_FIND_VERSION = full requested version string
| |
| PACKAGE_FIND_VERSION_MAJOR = major version if requested, else 0
| |
| PACKAGE_FIND_VERSION_MINOR = minor version if requested, else 0
| |
| PACKAGE_FIND_VERSION_PATCH = patch version if requested, else 0
| |
| PACKAGE_FIND_VERSION_TWEAK = tweak version if requested, else 0
| |
| PACKAGE_FIND_VERSION_COUNT = number of version components, 0 to 4
| |
| | |
| The version file checks whether it satisfies the requested version and
| |
| sets these variables:
| |
| | |
| PACKAGE_VERSION = full provided version string
| |
| PACKAGE_VERSION_EXACT = true if version is exact match
| |
| PACKAGE_VERSION_COMPATIBLE = true if version is compatible
| |
| PACKAGE_VERSION_UNSUITABLE = true if unsuitable as any version
| |
| | |
| These variables are checked by the find_package command to determine
| |
| whether the configuration file provides an acceptable version. They
| |
| are not available after the find_package call returns. If the version
| |
| is acceptable the following variables are set:
| |
| | |
| <package>_VERSION = full provided version string
| |
| <package>_VERSION_MAJOR = major version if provided, else 0
| |
| <package>_VERSION_MINOR = minor version if provided, else 0
| |
| <package>_VERSION_PATCH = patch version if provided, else 0
| |
| <package>_VERSION_TWEAK = tweak version if provided, else 0
| |
| <package>_VERSION_COUNT = number of version components, 0 to 4
| |
| | |
| and the corresponding package configuration file is loaded. When
| |
| multiple package configuration files are available whose version files
| |
| claim compatibility with the version requested it is unspecified which
| |
| one is chosen. No attempt is made to choose a highest or closest
| |
| version number.
| |
| | |
| Config mode provides an elaborate interface and search procedure.
| |
| Much of the interface is provided for completeness and for use
| |
| internally by find-modules loaded by Module mode. Most user code
| |
| should simply call
| |
| | |
| find_package(<package> [major[.minor]] [EXACT] [REQUIRED|QUIET])
| |
| | |
| in order to find a package. Package maintainers providing CMake
| |
| package configuration files are encouraged to name and install them
| |
| such that the procedure outlined below will find them without
| |
| requiring use of additional options.
| |
| | |
| CMake constructs a set of possible installation prefixes for the
| |
| package. Under each prefix several directories are searched for a
| |
| configuration file. The tables below show the directories searched.
| |
| Each entry is meant for installation trees following Windows (W), UNIX
| |
| (U), or Apple (A) conventions.
| |
| | |
| <prefix>/ (W)
| |
| <prefix>/(cmake|CMake)/ (W)
| |
| <prefix>/<name>*/ (W)
| |
| <prefix>/<name>*/(cmake|CMake)/ (W)
| |
| <prefix>/(lib/<arch>|lib|share)/cmake/<name>*/ (U)
| |
| <prefix>/(lib/<arch>|lib|share)/<name>*/ (U)
| |
| <prefix>/(lib/<arch>|lib|share)/<name>*/(cmake|CMake)/ (U)
| |
| | |
| On systems supporting OS X Frameworks and Application Bundles the
| |
| following directories are searched for frameworks or bundles
| |
| containing a configuration file:
| |
| | |
| <prefix>/<name>.framework/Resources/ (A)
| |
| <prefix>/<name>.framework/Resources/CMake/ (A)
| |
| <prefix>/<name>.framework/Versions/*/Resources/ (A)
| |
| <prefix>/<name>.framework/Versions/*/Resources/CMake/ (A)
| |
| <prefix>/<name>.app/Contents/Resources/ (A)
| |
| <prefix>/<name>.app/Contents/Resources/CMake/ (A)
| |
| | |
| In all cases the <name> is treated as case-insensitive and corresponds
| |
| to any of the names specified (<package> or names given by NAMES).
| |
| Paths with lib/<arch> are enabled if CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE is
| |
| set. If PATH_SUFFIXES is specified the suffixes are appended to each
| |
| (W) or (U) directory entry one-by-one.
| |
| | |
| This set of directories is intended to work in cooperation with
| |
| projects that provide configuration files in their installation trees.
| |
| Directories above marked with (W) are intended for installations on
| |
| Windows where the prefix may point at the top of an application's
| |
| installation directory. Those marked with (U) are intended for
| |
| installations on UNIX platforms where the prefix is shared by multiple
| |
| packages. This is merely a convention, so all (W) and (U) directories
| |
| are still searched on all platforms. Directories marked with (A) are
| |
| intended for installations on Apple platforms. The cmake variables
| |
| CMAKE_FIND_FRAMEWORK and CMAKE_FIND_APPBUNDLE determine the order of
| |
| preference as specified below.
| |
| | |
| The set of installation prefixes is constructed using the following
| |
| steps. If NO_DEFAULT_PATH is specified all NO_* options are enabled.
| |
| | |
| 1. Search paths specified in cmake-specific cache variables. These
| |
| are intended to be used on the command line with a -DVAR=value. This
| |
| can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_PATH is passed.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_FRAMEWORK_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_APPBUNDLE_PATH
| |
| | |
| 2. Search paths specified in cmake-specific environment variables.
| |
| These are intended to be set in the user's shell configuration. This
| |
| can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_ENVIRONMENT_PATH is passed.
| |
| | |
| <package>_DIR
| |
| CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_FRAMEWORK_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_APPBUNDLE_PATH
| |
| | |
| 3. Search paths specified by the HINTS option. These should be paths
| |
| computed by system introspection, such as a hint provided by the
| |
| location of another item already found. Hard-coded guesses should be
| |
| specified with the PATHS option.
| |
| | |
| 4. Search the standard system environment variables. This can be
| |
| skipped if NO_SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT_PATH is passed. Path entries ending
| |
| in "/bin" or "/sbin" are automatically converted to their parent
| |
| directories.
| |
| | |
| PATH
| |
| | |
| 5. Search project build trees recently configured in a CMake GUI.
| |
| This can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_BUILDS_PATH is passed. It is intended
| |
| for the case when a user is building multiple dependent projects one
| |
| after another.
| |
| | |
| 6. Search paths stored in the CMake user package registry. This can
| |
| be skipped if NO_CMAKE_PACKAGE_REGISTRY is passed. On Windows a
| |
| <package> may appear under registry key
| |
| | |
| HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Kitware\CMake\Packages\<package>
| |
| | |
| as a REG_SZ value, with arbitrary name, that specifies the directory
| |
| containing the package configuration file. On UNIX platforms a
| |
| <package> may appear under the directory
| |
| | |
| ~/.cmake/packages/<package>
| |
| | |
| as a file, with arbitrary name, whose content specifies the directory
| |
| containing the package configuration file. See the export(PACKAGE)
| |
| command to create user package registry entries for project build
| |
| trees.
| |
| | |
| 7. Search cmake variables defined in the Platform files for the
| |
| current system. This can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PATH is
| |
| passed.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_FRAMEWORK_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_APPBUNDLE_PATH
| |
| | |
| 8. Search paths stored in the CMake system package registry. This
| |
| can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PACKAGE_REGISTRY is passed. On
| |
| Windows a <package> may appear under registry key
| |
| | |
| HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Kitware\CMake\Packages\<package>
| |
| | |
| as a REG_SZ value, with arbitrary name, that specifies the directory
| |
| containing the package configuration file. There is no system package
| |
| registry on non-Windows platforms.
| |
| | |
| 9. Search paths specified by the PATHS option. These are typically
| |
| hard-coded guesses.
| |
| | |
| On Darwin or systems supporting OS X Frameworks, the cmake variable
| |
| CMAKE_FIND_FRAMEWORK can be set to empty or one of the following:
| |
| | |
| "FIRST" - Try to find frameworks before standard
| |
| libraries or headers. This is the default on Darwin.
| |
| "LAST" - Try to find frameworks after standard
| |
| libraries or headers.
| |
| "ONLY" - Only try to find frameworks.
| |
| "NEVER" - Never try to find frameworks.
| |
| | |
| On Darwin or systems supporting OS X Application Bundles, the cmake
| |
| variable CMAKE_FIND_APPBUNDLE can be set to empty or one of the
| |
| following:
| |
| | |
| "FIRST" - Try to find application bundles before standard
| |
| programs. This is the default on Darwin.
| |
| "LAST" - Try to find application bundles after standard
| |
| programs.
| |
| "ONLY" - Only try to find application bundles.
| |
| "NEVER" - Never try to find application bundles.
| |
| | |
| The CMake variable CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH specifies one or more
| |
| directories to be prepended to all other search directories. This
| |
| effectively "re-roots" the entire search under given locations. By
| |
| default it is empty. It is especially useful when cross-compiling to
| |
| point to the root directory of the target environment and CMake will
| |
| search there too. By default at first the directories listed in
| |
| CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH and then the non-rooted directories will be
| |
| searched. The default behavior can be adjusted by setting
| |
| CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_PACKAGE. This behavior can be manually
| |
| overridden on a per-call basis. By using CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_BOTH
| |
| the search order will be as described above. If
| |
| NO_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH is used then CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH will not be
| |
| used. If ONLY_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH is used then only the re-rooted
| |
| directories will be searched.
| |
| | |
| The default search order is designed to be most-specific to
| |
| least-specific for common use cases. Projects may override the order
| |
| by simply calling the command multiple times and using the NO_*
| |
| options:
| |
| | |
| find_package(<package> PATHS paths... NO_DEFAULT_PATH)
| |
| find_package(<package>)
| |
| | |
| Once one of the calls succeeds the result variable will be set and
| |
| stored in the cache so that no call will search again.
| |
| | |
| Every non-REQUIRED find_package() call can be disabled by setting the
| |
| variable CMAKE_DISABLE_FIND_PACKAGE_<package> to TRUE. See the
| |
| documentation for the CMAKE_DISABLE_FIND_PACKAGE_<package> variable
| |
| for more information.
| |
| | |
| When loading a find module or package configuration file find_package
| |
| defines variables to provide information about the call arguments (and
| |
| restores their original state before returning):
| |
| | |
| <package>_FIND_REQUIRED = true if REQUIRED option was given
| |
| <package>_FIND_QUIETLY = true if QUIET option was given
| |
| <package>_FIND_VERSION = full requested version string
| |
| <package>_FIND_VERSION_MAJOR = major version if requested, else 0
| |
| <package>_FIND_VERSION_MINOR = minor version if requested, else 0
| |
| <package>_FIND_VERSION_PATCH = patch version if requested, else 0
| |
| <package>_FIND_VERSION_TWEAK = tweak version if requested, else 0
| |
| <package>_FIND_VERSION_COUNT = number of version components, 0 to 4
| |
| <package>_FIND_VERSION_EXACT = true if EXACT option was given
| |
| <package>_FIND_COMPONENTS = list of requested components
| |
| <package>_FIND_REQUIRED_<c> = true if component <c> is required
| |
| false if component <c> is optional
| |
| | |
| In Module mode the loaded find module is responsible to honor the
| |
| request detailed by these variables; see the find module for details.
| |
| In Config mode find_package handles REQUIRED, QUIET, and version
| |
| options automatically but leaves it to the package configuration file
| |
| to handle components in a way that makes sense for the package. The
| |
| package configuration file may set <package>_FOUND to false to tell
| |
| find_package that component requirements are not satisfied.
| |
| | |
| See the cmake_policy() command documentation for discussion of the
| |
| NO_POLICY_SCOPE option.
| |
| | |
| find_path
| |
| Find the directory containing a file.
| |
| | |
| find_path(<VAR> name1 [path1 path2 ...])
| |
| | |
| This is the short-hand signature for the command that is sufficient in
| |
| many cases. It is the same as find_path(<VAR> name1 [PATHS path1
| |
| path2 ...])
| |
| | |
| find_path(
| |
| <VAR>
| |
| name | NAMES name1 [name2 ...]
| |
| [HINTS path1 [path2 ... ENV var]]
| |
| [PATHS path1 [path2 ... ENV var]]
| |
| [PATH_SUFFIXES suffix1 [suffix2 ...]]
| |
| [DOC "cache documentation string"]
| |
| [NO_DEFAULT_PATH]
| |
| [NO_CMAKE_ENVIRONMENT_PATH]
| |
| [NO_CMAKE_PATH]
| |
| [NO_SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT_PATH]
| |
| [NO_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PATH]
| |
| [CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_BOTH |
| |
| ONLY_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH |
| |
| NO_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH]
| |
| )
| |
| | |
| This command is used to find a directory containing the named file. A
| |
| cache entry named by <VAR> is created to store the result of this
| |
| command. If the file in a directory is found the result is stored in
| |
| the variable and the search will not be repeated unless the variable
| |
| is cleared. If nothing is found, the result will be <VAR>-NOTFOUND,
| |
| and the search will be attempted again the next time find_path is
| |
| invoked with the same variable. The name of the file in a directory
| |
| that is searched for is specified by the names listed after the NAMES
| |
| argument. Additional search locations can be specified after the
| |
| PATHS argument. If ENV var is found in the HINTS or PATHS section the
| |
| environment variable var will be read and converted from a system
| |
| environment variable to a cmake style list of paths. For example ENV
| |
| PATH would be a way to list the system path variable. The argument
| |
| after DOC will be used for the documentation string in the cache.
| |
| PATH_SUFFIXES specifies additional subdirectories to check below each
| |
| search path.
| |
| | |
| If NO_DEFAULT_PATH is specified, then no additional paths are added to
| |
| the search. If NO_DEFAULT_PATH is not specified, the search process
| |
| is as follows:
| |
| | |
| 1. Search paths specified in cmake-specific cache variables. These
| |
| are intended to be used on the command line with a -DVAR=value. This
| |
| can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_PATH is passed.
| |
| | |
| <prefix>/include/<arch> if CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE is set, and
| |
| <prefix>/include for each <prefix> in CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_FRAMEWORK_PATH
| |
| | |
| 2. Search paths specified in cmake-specific environment variables.
| |
| These are intended to be set in the user's shell configuration. This
| |
| can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_ENVIRONMENT_PATH is passed.
| |
| | |
| <prefix>/include/<arch> if CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE is set, and
| |
| <prefix>/include for each <prefix> in CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_FRAMEWORK_PATH
| |
| | |
| 3. Search the paths specified by the HINTS option. These should be
| |
| paths computed by system introspection, such as a hint provided by the
| |
| location of another item already found. Hard-coded guesses should be
| |
| specified with the PATHS option.
| |
| | |
| 4. Search the standard system environment variables. This can be
| |
| skipped if NO_SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT_PATH is an argument.
| |
| | |
| PATH
| |
| INCLUDE
| |
| | |
| 5. Search cmake variables defined in the Platform files for the
| |
| current system. This can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PATH is
| |
| passed.
| |
| | |
| <prefix>/include/<arch> if CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE is set, and
| |
| <prefix>/include for each <prefix> in CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_FRAMEWORK_PATH
| |
| | |
| 6. Search the paths specified by the PATHS option or in the
| |
| short-hand version of the command. These are typically hard-coded
| |
| guesses.
| |
| | |
| On Darwin or systems supporting OS X Frameworks, the cmake variable
| |
| CMAKE_FIND_FRAMEWORK can be set to empty or one of the following:
| |
| | |
| "FIRST" - Try to find frameworks before standard
| |
| libraries or headers. This is the default on Darwin.
| |
| "LAST" - Try to find frameworks after standard
| |
| libraries or headers.
| |
| "ONLY" - Only try to find frameworks.
| |
| "NEVER" - Never try to find frameworks.
| |
| | |
| On Darwin or systems supporting OS X Application Bundles, the cmake
| |
| variable CMAKE_FIND_APPBUNDLE can be set to empty or one of the
| |
| following:
| |
| | |
| "FIRST" - Try to find application bundles before standard
| |
| programs. This is the default on Darwin.
| |
| "LAST" - Try to find application bundles after standard
| |
| programs.
| |
| "ONLY" - Only try to find application bundles.
| |
| "NEVER" - Never try to find application bundles.
| |
| | |
| The CMake variable CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH specifies one or more
| |
| directories to be prepended to all other search directories. This
| |
| effectively "re-roots" the entire search under given locations. By
| |
| default it is empty. It is especially useful when cross-compiling to
| |
| point to the root directory of the target environment and CMake will
| |
| search there too. By default at first the directories listed in
| |
| CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH and then the non-rooted directories will be
| |
| searched. The default behavior can be adjusted by setting
| |
| CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_INCLUDE. This behavior can be manually
| |
| overridden on a per-call basis. By using CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_BOTH
| |
| the search order will be as described above. If
| |
| NO_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH is used then CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH will not be
| |
| used. If ONLY_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH is used then only the re-rooted
| |
| directories will be searched.
| |
| | |
| The default search order is designed to be most-specific to
| |
| least-specific for common use cases. Projects may override the order
| |
| by simply calling the command multiple times and using the NO_*
| |
| options:
| |
| | |
| find_path(<VAR> NAMES name PATHS paths... NO_DEFAULT_PATH)
| |
| find_path(<VAR> NAMES name)
| |
| | |
| Once one of the calls succeeds the result variable will be set and
| |
| stored in the cache so that no call will search again.
| |
| | |
| When searching for frameworks, if the file is specified as A/b.h, then
| |
| the framework search will look for A.framework/Headers/b.h. If that
| |
| is found the path will be set to the path to the framework. CMake
| |
| will convert this to the correct -F option to include the file.
| |
| | |
| find_program
| |
| Find an executable program.
| |
| | |
| find_program(<VAR> name1 [path1 path2 ...])
| |
| | |
| This is the short-hand signature for the command that is sufficient in
| |
| many cases. It is the same as find_program(<VAR> name1 [PATHS path1
| |
| path2 ...])
| |
| | |
| find_program(
| |
| <VAR>
| |
| name | NAMES name1 [name2 ...]
| |
| [HINTS path1 [path2 ... ENV var]]
| |
| [PATHS path1 [path2 ... ENV var]]
| |
| [PATH_SUFFIXES suffix1 [suffix2 ...]]
| |
| [DOC "cache documentation string"]
| |
| [NO_DEFAULT_PATH]
| |
| [NO_CMAKE_ENVIRONMENT_PATH]
| |
| [NO_CMAKE_PATH]
| |
| [NO_SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT_PATH]
| |
| [NO_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PATH]
| |
| [CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_BOTH |
| |
| ONLY_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH |
| |
| NO_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH]
| |
| )
| |
| | |
| This command is used to find a program. A cache entry named by <VAR>
| |
| is created to store the result of this command. If the program is
| |
| found the result is stored in the variable and the search will not be
| |
| repeated unless the variable is cleared. If nothing is found, the
| |
| result will be <VAR>-NOTFOUND, and the search will be attempted again
| |
| the next time find_program is invoked with the same variable. The
| |
| name of the program that is searched for is specified by the names
| |
| listed after the NAMES argument. Additional search locations can be
| |
| specified after the PATHS argument. If ENV var is found in the HINTS
| |
| or PATHS section the environment variable var will be read and
| |
| converted from a system environment variable to a cmake style list of
| |
| paths. For example ENV PATH would be a way to list the system path
| |
| variable. The argument after DOC will be used for the documentation
| |
| string in the cache. PATH_SUFFIXES specifies additional
| |
| subdirectories to check below each search path.
| |
| | |
| If NO_DEFAULT_PATH is specified, then no additional paths are added to
| |
| the search. If NO_DEFAULT_PATH is not specified, the search process
| |
| is as follows:
| |
| | |
| 1. Search paths specified in cmake-specific cache variables. These
| |
| are intended to be used on the command line with a -DVAR=value. This
| |
| can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_PATH is passed.
| |
| | |
| <prefix>/[s]bin for each <prefix> in CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_PROGRAM_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_APPBUNDLE_PATH
| |
| | |
| 2. Search paths specified in cmake-specific environment variables.
| |
| These are intended to be set in the user's shell configuration. This
| |
| can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_ENVIRONMENT_PATH is passed.
| |
| | |
| <prefix>/[s]bin for each <prefix> in CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_PROGRAM_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_APPBUNDLE_PATH
| |
| | |
| 3. Search the paths specified by the HINTS option. These should be
| |
| paths computed by system introspection, such as a hint provided by the
| |
| location of another item already found. Hard-coded guesses should be
| |
| specified with the PATHS option.
| |
| | |
| 4. Search the standard system environment variables. This can be
| |
| skipped if NO_SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT_PATH is an argument.
| |
| | |
| PATH
| |
|
| |
| | |
| 5. Search cmake variables defined in the Platform files for the
| |
| current system. This can be skipped if NO_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PATH is
| |
| passed.
| |
| | |
| <prefix>/[s]bin for each <prefix> in CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROGRAM_PATH
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_APPBUNDLE_PATH
| |
| | |
| 6. Search the paths specified by the PATHS option or in the
| |
| short-hand version of the command. These are typically hard-coded
| |
| guesses.
| |
| | |
| On Darwin or systems supporting OS X Frameworks, the cmake variable
| |
| CMAKE_FIND_FRAMEWORK can be set to empty or one of the following:
| |
| | |
| "FIRST" - Try to find frameworks before standard
| |
| libraries or headers. This is the default on Darwin.
| |
| "LAST" - Try to find frameworks after standard
| |
| libraries or headers.
| |
| "ONLY" - Only try to find frameworks.
| |
| "NEVER" - Never try to find frameworks.
| |
| | |
| On Darwin or systems supporting OS X Application Bundles, the cmake
| |
| variable CMAKE_FIND_APPBUNDLE can be set to empty or one of the
| |
| following:
| |
| | |
| "FIRST" - Try to find application bundles before standard
| |
| programs. This is the default on Darwin.
| |
| "LAST" - Try to find application bundles after standard
| |
| programs.
| |
| "ONLY" - Only try to find application bundles.
| |
| "NEVER" - Never try to find application bundles.
| |
| | |
| The CMake variable CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH specifies one or more
| |
| directories to be prepended to all other search directories. This
| |
| effectively "re-roots" the entire search under given locations. By
| |
| default it is empty. It is especially useful when cross-compiling to
| |
| point to the root directory of the target environment and CMake will
| |
| search there too. By default at first the directories listed in
| |
| CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH and then the non-rooted directories will be
| |
| searched. The default behavior can be adjusted by setting
| |
| CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_MODE_PROGRAM. This behavior can be manually
| |
| overridden on a per-call basis. By using CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH_BOTH
| |
| the search order will be as described above. If
| |
| NO_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH is used then CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH will not be
| |
| used. If ONLY_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH is used then only the re-rooted
| |
| directories will be searched.
| |
| | |
| The default search order is designed to be most-specific to
| |
| least-specific for common use cases. Projects may override the order
| |
| by simply calling the command multiple times and using the NO_*
| |
| options:
| |
| | |
| find_program(<VAR> NAMES name PATHS paths... NO_DEFAULT_PATH)
| |
| find_program(<VAR> NAMES name)
| |
| | |
| Once one of the calls succeeds the result variable will be set and
| |
| stored in the cache so that no call will search again.
| |
| | |
| foreach
| |
| Evaluate a group of commands for each value in a list.
| |
| | |
| foreach(loop_var arg1 arg2 ...)
| |
| COMMAND1(ARGS ...)
| |
| COMMAND2(ARGS ...)
| |
| ...
| |
| endforeach(loop_var)
| |
| | |
| All commands between foreach and the matching endforeach are recorded
| |
| without being invoked. Once the endforeach is evaluated, the recorded
| |
| list of commands is invoked once for each argument listed in the
| |
| original foreach command. Before each iteration of the loop
| |
| "${loop_var}" will be set as a variable with the current value in the
| |
| list.
| |
| | |
| foreach(loop_var RANGE total)
| |
| foreach(loop_var RANGE start stop [step])
| |
| | |
| Foreach can also iterate over a generated range of numbers. There are
| |
| three types of this iteration:
| |
| | |
| * When specifying single number, the range will have elements 0 to
| |
| "total".
| |
| | |
| * When specifying two numbers, the range will have elements from the
| |
| first number to the second number.
| |
| | |
| * The third optional number is the increment used to iterate from the
| |
| first number to the second number.
| |
| | |
| foreach(loop_var IN [LISTS [list1 [...]]]
| |
| [ITEMS [item1 [...]]])
| |
| | |
| Iterates over a precise list of items. The LISTS option names
| |
| list-valued variables to be traversed, including empty elements (an
| |
| empty string is a zero-length list). The ITEMS option ends argument
| |
| parsing and includes all arguments following it in the iteration.
| |
| | |
| function
| |
| Start recording a function for later invocation as a command.
| |
| | |
| function(<name> [arg1 [arg2 [arg3 ...]]])
| |
| COMMAND1(ARGS ...)
| |
| COMMAND2(ARGS ...)
| |
| ...
| |
| endfunction(<name>)
| |
| | |
| Define a function named <name> that takes arguments named arg1 arg2
| |
| arg3 (...). Commands listed after function, but before the matching
| |
| endfunction, are not invoked until the function is invoked. When it
| |
| is invoked, the commands recorded in the function are first modified
| |
| by replacing formal parameters (${arg1}) with the arguments passed,
| |
| and then invoked as normal commands. In addition to referencing the
| |
| formal parameters you can reference the variable ARGC which will be
| |
| set to the number of arguments passed into the function as well as
| |
| ARGV0 ARGV1 ARGV2 ... which will have the actual values of the
| |
| arguments passed in. This facilitates creating functions with
| |
| optional arguments. Additionally ARGV holds the list of all arguments
| |
| given to the function and ARGN holds the list of arguments past the
| |
| last expected argument.
| |
| | |
| A function opens a new scope: see set(var PARENT_SCOPE) for details.
| |
| | |
| See the cmake_policy() command documentation for the behavior of
| |
| policies inside functions.
| |
| | |
| get_cmake_property
| |
| Get a property of the CMake instance.
| |
| | |
| get_cmake_property(VAR property)
| |
| | |
| Get a property from the CMake instance. The value of the property is
| |
| stored in the variable VAR. If the property is not found, VAR will be
| |
| set to "NOTFOUND". Some supported properties include: VARIABLES,
| |
| CACHE_VARIABLES, COMMANDS, MACROS, and COMPONENTS.
| |
| | |
| See also the more general get_property() command.
| |
| | |
| get_directory_property
| |
| Get a property of DIRECTORY scope.
| |
| | |
| get_directory_property(<variable> [DIRECTORY <dir>] <prop-name>)
| |
| | |
| Store a property of directory scope in the named variable. If the
| |
| property is not defined the empty-string is returned. The DIRECTORY
| |
| argument specifies another directory from which to retrieve the
| |
| property value. The specified directory must have already been
| |
| traversed by CMake.
| |
| | |
| get_directory_property(<variable> [DIRECTORY <dir>]
| |
| DEFINITION <var-name>)
| |
| | |
| Get a variable definition from a directory. This form is useful to
| |
| get a variable definition from another directory.
| |
| | |
| See also the more general get_property() command.
| |
| | |
| get_filename_component
| |
| Get a specific component of a full filename.
| |
| | |
| get_filename_component(<VAR> <FileName> <COMP> [CACHE])
| |
| | |
| Set <VAR> to a component of <FileName>, where <COMP> is one of:
| |
| | |
| PATH = Directory without file name
| |
| NAME = File name without directory
| |
| EXT = File name longest extension (.b.c from d/a.b.c)
| |
| NAME_WE = File name without directory or longest extension
| |
| ABSOLUTE = Full path to file
| |
| REALPATH = Full path to existing file with symlinks resolved
| |
| | |
| Paths are returned with forward slashes and have no trailing slahes.
| |
| The longest file extension is always considered. If the optional
| |
| CACHE argument is specified, the result variable is added to the
| |
| cache.
| |
| | |
| get_filename_component(<VAR> FileName
| |
| PROGRAM [PROGRAM_ARGS <ARG_VAR>]
| |
| [CACHE])
| |
| | |
| The program in FileName will be found in the system search path or
| |
| left as a full path. If PROGRAM_ARGS is present with PROGRAM, then
| |
| any command-line arguments present in the FileName string are split
| |
| from the program name and stored in <ARG_VAR>. This is used to
| |
| separate a program name from its arguments in a command line string.
| |
| | |
| get_property
| |
| Get a property.
| |
| | |
| get_property(<variable>
| |
| <GLOBAL |
| |
| DIRECTORY [dir] |
| |
| TARGET <target> |
| |
| SOURCE <source> |
| |
| TEST <test> |
| |
| CACHE <entry> |
| |
| VARIABLE>
| |
| PROPERTY <name>
| |
| [SET | DEFINED | BRIEF_DOCS | FULL_DOCS])
| |
| | |
| Get one property from one object in a scope. The first argument
| |
| specifies the variable in which to store the result. The second
| |
| argument determines the scope from which to get the property. It must
| |
| be one of the following:
| |
| | |
| GLOBAL scope is unique and does not accept a name.
| |
| | |
| DIRECTORY scope defaults to the current directory but another
| |
| directory (already processed by CMake) may be named by full or
| |
| relative path.
| |
| | |
| TARGET scope must name one existing target.
| |
| | |
| SOURCE scope must name one source file.
| |
| | |
| TEST scope must name one existing test.
| |
| | |
| CACHE scope must name one cache entry.
| |
| | |
| VARIABLE scope is unique and does not accept a name.
| |
| | |
| The required PROPERTY option is immediately followed by the name of
| |
| the property to get. If the property is not set an empty value is
| |
| returned. If the SET option is given the variable is set to a boolean
| |
| value indicating whether the property has been set. If the DEFINED
| |
| option is given the variable is set to a boolean value indicating
| |
| whether the property has been defined such as with define_property.
| |
| If BRIEF_DOCS or FULL_DOCS is given then the variable is set to a
| |
| string containing documentation for the requested property. If
| |
| documentation is requested for a property that has not been defined
| |
| NOTFOUND is returned.
| |
| | |
| if
| |
| Conditionally execute a group of commands.
| |
| | |
| if(expression)
| |
| # then section.
| |
| COMMAND1(ARGS ...)
| |
| COMMAND2(ARGS ...)
| |
| ...
| |
| elseif(expression2)
| |
| # elseif section.
| |
| COMMAND1(ARGS ...)
| |
| COMMAND2(ARGS ...)
| |
| ...
| |
| else(expression)
| |
| # else section.
| |
| COMMAND1(ARGS ...)
| |
| COMMAND2(ARGS ...)
| |
| ...
| |
| endif(expression)
| |
| | |
| Evaluates the given expression. If the result is true, the commands
| |
| in the THEN section are invoked. Otherwise, the commands in the else
| |
| section are invoked. The elseif and else sections are optional. You
| |
| may have multiple elseif clauses. Note that the expression in the
| |
| else and endif clause is optional. Long expressions can be used and
| |
| there is a traditional order of precedence. Parenthetical expressions
| |
| are evaluated first followed by unary operators such as EXISTS,
| |
| COMMAND, and DEFINED. Then any EQUAL, LESS, GREATER, STRLESS,
| |
| STRGREATER, STREQUAL, MATCHES will be evaluated. Then NOT operators
| |
| and finally AND, OR operators will be evaluated. Possible expressions
| |
| are:
| |
| | |
| if(<constant>)
| |
| | |
| True if the constant is 1, ON, YES, TRUE, Y, or a non-zero number.
| |
| False if the constant is 0, OFF, NO, FALSE, N, IGNORE, NOTFOUND, '',
| |
| or ends in the suffix '-NOTFOUND'. Named boolean constants are
| |
| case-insensitive. If the argument is not one of these constants, it
| |
| is treated as a variable:
| |
| | |
| if(<variable>)
| |
| | |
| True if the variable is defined to a value that is not a false
| |
| constant. False otherwise. (Note macro arguments are not variables.)
| |
| | |
| if(NOT <expression>)
| |
| | |
| True if the expression is not true.
| |
| | |
| if(<expr1> AND <expr2>)
| |
| | |
| True if both expressions would be considered true individually.
| |
| | |
| if(<expr1> OR <expr2>)
| |
| | |
| True if either expression would be considered true individually.
| |
| | |
| if(COMMAND command-name)
| |
| | |
| True if the given name is a command, macro or function that can be
| |
| invoked.
| |
| | |
| if(POLICY policy-id)
| |
| | |
| True if the given name is an existing policy (of the form CMP<NNNN>).
| |
| | |
| if(TARGET target-name)
| |
| | |
| True if the given name is an existing target, built or imported.
| |
| | |
| if(EXISTS file-name)
| |
| if(EXISTS directory-name)
| |
| | |
| True if the named file or directory exists. Behavior is well-defined
| |
| only for full paths.
| |
| | |
| if(file1 IS_NEWER_THAN file2)
| |
| | |
| True if file1 is newer than file2 or if one of the two files doesn't
| |
| exist. Behavior is well-defined only for full paths. If the file
| |
| time stamps are exactly the same, an IS_NEWER_THAN comparison returns
| |
| true, so that any dependent build operations will occur in the event
| |
| of a tie. This includes the case of passing the same file name for
| |
| both file1 and file2.
| |
| | |
| if(IS_DIRECTORY directory-name)
| |
| | |
| True if the given name is a directory. Behavior is well-defined only
| |
| for full paths.
| |
| | |
| if(IS_SYMLINK file-name)
| |
| | |
| True if the given name is a symbolic link. Behavior is well-defined
| |
| only for full paths.
| |
| | |
| if(IS_ABSOLUTE path)
| |
| | |
| True if the given path is an absolute path.
| |
| | |
| if(<variable|string> MATCHES regex)
| |
| | |
| True if the given string or variable's value matches the given regular
| |
| expression.
| |
| | |
| if(<variable|string> LESS <variable|string>)
| |
| if(<variable|string> GREATER <variable|string>)
| |
| if(<variable|string> EQUAL <variable|string>)
| |
| | |
| True if the given string or variable's value is a valid number and the
| |
| inequality or equality is true.
| |
| | |
| if(<variable|string> STRLESS <variable|string>)
| |
| if(<variable|string> STRGREATER <variable|string>)
| |
| if(<variable|string> STREQUAL <variable|string>)
| |
| | |
| True if the given string or variable's value is lexicographically less
| |
| (or greater, or equal) than the string or variable on the right.
| |
| | |
| if(<variable|string> VERSION_LESS <variable|string>)
| |
| if(<variable|string> VERSION_EQUAL <variable|string>)
| |
| if(<variable|string> VERSION_GREATER <variable|string>)
| |
| | |
| Component-wise integer version number comparison (version format is
| |
| major[.minor[.patch[.tweak]]]).
| |
| | |
| if(DEFINED <variable>)
| |
| | |
| True if the given variable is defined. It does not matter if the
| |
| variable is true or false just if it has been set.
| |
| | |
| if((expression) AND (expression OR (expression)))
| |
| | |
| The expressions inside the parenthesis are evaluated first and then
| |
| the remaining expression is evaluated as in the previous examples.
| |
| Where there are nested parenthesis the innermost are evaluated as part
| |
| of evaluating the expression that contains them.
| |
| | |
| The if command was written very early in CMake's history, predating
| |
| the ${} variable evaluation syntax, and for convenience evaluates
| |
| variables named by its arguments as shown in the above signatures.
| |
| Note that normal variable evaluation with ${} applies before the if
| |
| command even receives the arguments. Therefore code like
| |
| | |
| set(var1 OFF)
| |
| set(var2 "var1")
| |
| if(${var2})
| |
| | |
| appears to the if command as
| |
| | |
| if(var1)
| |
| | |
| and is evaluated according to the if(<variable>) case documented
| |
| above. The result is OFF which is false. However, if we remove the
| |
| ${} from the example then the command sees
| |
| | |
| if(var2)
| |
| | |
| which is true because var2 is defined to "var1" which is not a false
| |
| constant.
| |
| | |
| Automatic evaluation applies in the other cases whenever the
| |
| above-documented signature accepts <variable|string>:
| |
| | |
| 1) The left hand argument to MATCHES is first checked to see if it is
| |
| a defined variable, if so the variable's value is used, otherwise the
| |
| original value is used.
| |
| | |
| 2) If the left hand argument to MATCHES is missing it returns false
| |
| without error
| |
| | |
| 3) Both left and right hand arguments to LESS GREATER EQUAL are
| |
| independently tested to see if they are defined variables, if so their
| |
| defined values are used otherwise the original value is used.
| |
| | |
| 4) Both left and right hand arguments to STRLESS STREQUAL STRGREATER
| |
| are independently tested to see if they are defined variables, if so
| |
| their defined values are used otherwise the original value is used.
| |
| | |
| 5) Both left and right hand argumemnts to VERSION_LESS VERSION_EQUAL
| |
| VERSION_GREATER are independently tested to see if they are defined
| |
| variables, if so their defined values are used otherwise the original
| |
| value is used.
| |
| | |
| 6) The right hand argument to NOT is tested to see if it is a boolean
| |
| constant, if so the value is used, otherwise it is assumed to be a
| |
| variable and it is dereferenced.
| |
| | |
| 7) The left and right hand arguments to AND OR are independently
| |
| tested to see if they are boolean constants, if so they are used as
| |
| such, otherwise they are assumed to be variables and are dereferenced.
| |
| | |

| include
| |
| Read CMake listfile code from the given file.
| |
| | |
| include(<file|module> [OPTIONAL] [RESULT_VARIABLE <VAR>]
| |
| [NO_POLICY_SCOPE])
| |
| | |
| Reads CMake listfile code from the given file. Commands in the file
| |
| are processed immediately as if they were written in place of the
| |
| include command. If OPTIONAL is present, then no error is raised if
| |
| the file does not exist. If RESULT_VARIABLE is given the variable
| |
| will be set to the full filename which has been included or NOTFOUND
| |
| if it failed.
| |
| | |
| If a module is specified instead of a file, the file with name
| |
| <modulename>.cmake is searched first in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH, then in the
| |
| CMake module directory. There is one exception to this: if the file
| |
| which calls include() is located itself in the CMake module directory,
| |
| then first the CMake module directory is searched and
| |
| CMAKE_MODULE_PATH afterwards. See also policy CMP0017.

| |
| list(INSERT <list> <element_index> <element> [<element> ...])
| |
| list(REMOVE_ITEM <list> <value> [<value> ...])
| |
| list(REMOVE_AT <list> <index> [<index> ...])
| |
| list(REMOVE_DUPLICATES <list>)
| |
| list(REVERSE <list>)
| |
| list(SORT <list>)
| |
| | |
| LENGTH will return a given list's length.
| |
| | |
| GET will return list of elements specified by indices from the list.
| |
| | |
| APPEND will append elements to the list.
| |
| | |
| FIND will return the index of the element specified in the list or -1
| |
| if it wasn't found.
| |
| | |
| INSERT will insert elements to the list to the specified location.
| |
| | |
| REMOVE_AT and REMOVE_ITEM will remove items from the list. The
| |
| difference is that REMOVE_ITEM will remove the given items, while
| |
| REMOVE_AT will remove the items at the given indices.
| |
| | |
| REMOVE_DUPLICATES will remove duplicated items in the list.
| |
| | |
| REVERSE reverses the contents of the list in-place.
| |
| | |
| SORT sorts the list in-place alphabetically.
| |
| | |
| The list subcommands APPEND, INSERT, REMOVE_AT, REMOVE_ITEM,
| |
| REMOVE_DUPLICATES, REVERSE and SORT may create new values for the list
| |
| within the current CMake variable scope. Similar to the SET command,
| |
| the LIST command creates new variable values in the current scope,
| |
| even if the list itself is actually defined in a parent scope. To
| |
| propagate the results of these operations upwards, use SET with
| |
| PARENT_SCOPE, SET with CACHE INTERNAL, or some other means of value
| |
| propagation.
| |
| | |
| NOTES: A list in cmake is a ; separated group of strings. To create a
| |
| list the set command can be used. For example, set(var a b c d e)
| |
| creates a list with a;b;c;d;e, and set(var "a b c d e") creates a
| |
| string or a list with one item in it.
| |
| | |
| When specifying index values, if <element index> is 0 or greater, it
| |
| is indexed from the beginning of the list, with 0 representing the
| |
| first list element. If <element index> is -1 or lesser, it is indexed
| |
| from the end of the list, with -1 representing the last list element.
| |
| Be careful when counting with negative indices: they do not start from
| |
| 0. -0 is equivalent to 0, the first list element.
| |
| | |
| | |
| macro
| |
| Start recording a macro for later invocation as a command.
| |
| | |
| macro(<name> [arg1 [arg2 [arg3 ...]]])
| |
| COMMAND1(ARGS ...)
| |
| COMMAND2(ARGS ...)
| |
| ...
| |
| endmacro(<name>)
| |
| | |
| Define a macro named <name> that takes arguments named arg1 arg2 arg3
| |
| (...). Commands listed after macro, but before the matching endmacro,
| |
| are not invoked until the macro is invoked. When it is invoked, the
| |
| commands recorded in the macro are first modified by replacing formal
| |
| parameters (${arg1}) with the arguments passed, and then invoked as
| |
| normal commands. In addition to referencing the formal parameters you
| |
| can reference the values ${ARGC} which will be set to the number of
| |
| arguments passed into the function as well as ${ARGV0} ${ARGV1}
| |
| ${ARGV2} ... which will have the actual values of the arguments
| |
| passed in. This facilitates creating macros with optional arguments.
| |
| Additionally ${ARGV} holds the list of all arguments given to the
| |
| macro and ${ARGN} holds the list of arguments past the last expected
| |
| argument. Note that the parameters to a macro and values such as ARGN
| |
| are not variables in the usual CMake sense. They are string
| |
| replacements much like the C preprocessor would do with a macro. If
| |
| you want true CMake variables and/or better CMake scope control you
| |
| should look at the function command.
| |
| | |
| See the cmake_policy() command documentation for the behavior of
| |
| policies inside macros.
| |
| | |
| mark_as_advanced
| |
| Mark cmake cached variables as advanced.
| |
| | |
| mark_as_advanced([CLEAR|FORCE] VAR VAR2 VAR...)
| |
| | |
| Mark the named cached variables as advanced. An advanced variable
| |
| will not be displayed in any of the cmake GUIs unless the show
| |
| advanced option is on. If CLEAR is the first argument advanced
| |
| variables are changed back to unadvanced. If FORCE is the first
| |
| argument, then the variable is made advanced. If neither FORCE nor
| |
| CLEAR is specified, new values will be marked as advanced, but if the
| |
| variable already has an advanced/non-advanced state, it will not be
| |
| changed.
| |
| | |
| It does nothing in script mode.
| |
| | |
| math
| |
| Mathematical expressions.
| |
| | |
| math(EXPR <output variable> <math expression>)
| |
| | |
| EXPR evaluates mathematical expression and returns result in the
| |
| output variable. Example mathematical expression is '5 * ( 10 + 13
| |
| )'. Supported operators are + - * / % | & ^ ~ << >> * / %. They have
| |
| the same meaning as they do in C code.
| |
| | |
| message
| |
| Display a message to the user.
| |
| | |
| message([STATUS|WARNING|AUTHOR_WARNING|FATAL_ERROR|SEND_ERROR]
| |
| "message to display" ...)
| |
| | |
| The optional keyword determines the type of message:
| |
| | |
| (none) = Important information
| |
| STATUS = Incidental information
| |
| WARNING = CMake Warning, continue processing
| |
| AUTHOR_WARNING = CMake Warning (dev), continue processing
| |
| SEND_ERROR = CMake Error, continue processing,
| |
| but skip generation
| |
| FATAL_ERROR = CMake Error, stop processing and generation
| |
| | |
| The CMake command-line tool displays STATUS messages on stdout and all
| |
| other message types on stderr. The CMake GUI displays all messages in
| |
| its log area. The interactive dialogs (ccmake and CMakeSetup) show
| |
| STATUS messages one at a time on a status line and other messages in
| |
| interactive pop-up boxes.
| |
| | |
| CMake Warning and Error message text displays using a simple markup
| |
| language. Non-indented text is formatted in line-wrapped paragraphs
| |
| delimited by newlines. Indented text is considered pre-formatted.
| |
| | |
| option
| |
| Provides an option that the user can optionally select.
| |
| | |
| option(<option_variable> "help string describing option"
| |
| [initial value])
| |
| | |
| Provide an option for the user to select as ON or OFF. If no initial
| |
| value is provided, OFF is used.
| |
| | |
| If you have options that depend on the values of other options, see
| |
| the module help for CMakeDependentOption.
| |
| | |
| return
| |
| Return from a file, directory or function.
| |
| | |
| return()
| |
| | |
| Returns from a file, directory or function. When this command is
| |
| encountered in an included file (via include() or find_package()), it
| |
| causes processing of the current file to stop and control is returned
| |
| to the including file. If it is encountered in a file which is not
| |
| included by another file, e.g. a CMakeLists.txt, control is returned
| |
| to the parent directory if there is one. If return is called in a
| |
| function, control is returned to the caller of the function. Note
| |
| that a macro is not a function and does not handle return like a
| |
| function does.
| |
| | |
| separate_arguments
| |
| Parse space-separated arguments into a semicolon-separated list.
| |
| | |
| separate_arguments(<var> <UNIX|WINDOWS>_COMMAND "<args>")
| |
| | |
| Parses a unix- or windows-style command-line string "<args>" and
| |
| stores a semicolon-separated list of the arguments in <var>. The
| |
| entire command line must be given in one "<args>" argument.
| |
| | |
| The UNIX_COMMAND mode separates arguments by unquoted whitespace. It
| |
| recognizes both single-quote and double-quote pairs. A backslash
| |
| escapes the next literal character (\" is "); there are no special
| |
| escapes (\n is just n).
| |
| | |
| The WINDOWS_COMMAND mode parses a windows command-line using the same
| |
| syntax the runtime library uses to construct argv at startup. It
| |
| separates arguments by whitespace that is not double-quoted.
| |
| Backslashes are literal unless they precede double-quotes. See the
| |
| MSDN article "Parsing C Command-Line Arguments" for details.
| |
| | |
| separate_arguments(VARIABLE)
| |
| | |
| Convert the value of VARIABLE to a semi-colon separated list. All
| |
| spaces are replaced with ';'. This helps with generating command
| |
| lines.
| |
| | |
| set
| |
| Set a CMake, cache or environment variable to a given value.
| |
| | |
| set(<variable> <value>
| |
| [[CACHE <type> <docstring> [FORCE]] | PARENT_SCOPE])
| |
| | |
| Within CMake sets <variable> to the value <value>. <value> is
| |
| expanded before <variable> is set to it. Normally, set will set a
| |
| regular CMake variable. If CACHE is present, then the <variable> is
| |
| put in the cache instead, unless it is already in the cache. See
| |
| section 'Variable types in CMake' below for details of regular and
| |
| cache variables and their interactions. If CACHE is used, <type> and
| |
| <docstring> are required. <type> is used by the CMake GUI to choose a
| |
| widget with which the user sets a value. The value for <type> may be
| |
| one of
| |
| | |
| FILEPATH = File chooser dialog.
| |
| PATH = Directory chooser dialog.
| |
| STRING = Arbitrary string.
| |
| BOOL = Boolean ON/OFF checkbox.
| |
| INTERNAL = No GUI entry (used for persistent variables).
| |
| | |
| If <type> is INTERNAL, the cache variable is marked as internal, and
| |
| will not be shown to the user in tools like cmake-gui. This is
| |
| intended for values that should be persisted in the cache, but which
| |
| users should not normally change. INTERNAL implies FORCE.
| |
| | |
| Normally, set(...CACHE...) creates cache variables, but does not
| |
| modify them. If FORCE is specified, the value of the cache variable
| |
| is set, even if the variable is already in the cache. This should
| |
| normally be avoided, as it will remove any changes to the cache
| |
| variable's value by the user.
| |
| | |
| If PARENT_SCOPE is present, the variable will be set in the scope
| |
| above the current scope. Each new directory or function creates a new
| |
| scope. This command will set the value of a variable into the parent
| |
| directory or calling function (whichever is applicable to the case at
| |
| hand). PARENT_SCOPE cannot be combined with CACHE.
| |
| | |
| If <value> is not specified then the variable is removed instead of
| |
| set. See also: the unset() command.
| |
| | |
| set(<variable> <value1> ... <valueN>)
| |
| | |
| In this case <variable> is set to a semicolon separated list of
| |
| values.
| |
| | |
| <variable> can be an environment variable such as:
| |
| | |
| set( ENV{PATH} /home/martink )
| |
| | |
| in which case the environment variable will be set.
| |
| | |
| *** Variable types in CMake ***
| |
| | |
| In CMake there are two types of variables: normal variables and cache
| |
| variables. Normal variables are meant for the internal use of the
| |
| script (just like variables in most programming languages); they are
| |
| not persisted across CMake runs. Cache variables (unless set with
| |
| INTERNAL) are mostly intended for configuration settings where the
| |
| first CMake run determines a suitable default value, which the user
| |
| can then override, by editing the cache with tools such as ccmake or
| |
| cmake-gui. Cache variables are stored in the CMake cache file, and
| |
| are persisted across CMake runs.
| |
| | |
| Both types can exist at the same time with the same name but different
| |
| values. When ${FOO} is evaluated, CMake first looks for a normal
| |
| variable 'FOO' in scope and uses it if set. If and only if no normal
| |
| variable exists then it falls back to the cache variable 'FOO'.
| |
| | |
| Some examples:
| |
| | |
| The code 'set(FOO "x")' sets the normal variable 'FOO'. It does not
| |
| touch the cache, but it will hide any existing cache value 'FOO'.
| |
| | |
| The code 'set(FOO "x" CACHE ...)' checks for 'FOO' in the cache,
| |
| ignoring any normal variable of the same name. If 'FOO' is in the
| |
| cache then nothing happens to either the normal variable or the cache
| |
| variable. If 'FOO' is not in the cache, then it is added to the
| |
| cache.
| |
| | |
| Finally, whenever a cache variable is added or modified by a command,
| |
| CMake also *removes* the normal variable of the same name from the
| |
| current scope so that an immediately following evaluation of it will
| |
| expose the newly cached value.
| |
| | |
| Normally projects should avoid using normal and cache variables of the
| |
| same name, as this interaction can be hard to follow. However, in
| |
| some situations it can be useful. One example (used by some
| |
| projects):
| |
| | |
| A project has a subproject in its source tree. The child project has
| |
| its own CMakeLists.txt, which is included from the parent
| |
| CMakeLists.txt using add_subdirectory(). Now, if the parent and the
| |
| child project provide the same option (for example a compiler option),
| |
| the parent gets the first chance to add a user-editable option to the
| |
| cache. Normally, the child would then use the same value that the
| |
| parent uses. However, it may be necessary to hard-code the value for
| |
| the child project's option while still allowing the user to edit the
| |
| value used by the parent project. The parent project can achieve this
| |
| simply by setting a normal variable with the same name as the option
| |
| in a scope sufficient to hide the option's cache variable from the
| |
| child completely. The parent has already set the cache variable, so
| |
| the child's set(...CACHE...) will do nothing, and evaluating the
| |
| option variable will use the value from the normal variable, which
| |
| hides the cache variable.
| |
| | |
| set_directory_properties
| |
| Set a property of the directory.
| |
| | |
| set_directory_properties(PROPERTIES prop1 value1 prop2 value2)
| |
| | |
| Set a property for the current directory and subdirectories. If the
| |
| property is not found, CMake will report an error. The properties
| |
| include: INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES, LINK_DIRECTORIES,
| |
| INCLUDE_REGULAR_EXPRESSION, and ADDITIONAL_MAKE_CLEAN_FILES.
| |
| ADDITIONAL_MAKE_CLEAN_FILES is a list of files that will be cleaned as
| |
| a part of "make clean" stage.
| |
| | |
| set_property
| |
| Set a named property in a given scope.
| |
| | |
| set_property(<GLOBAL |
| |
| DIRECTORY [dir] |
| |
| TARGET [target1 [target2 ...]] |
| |
| SOURCE [src1 [src2 ...]] |
| |
| TEST [test1 [test2 ...]] |
| |
| CACHE [entry1 [entry2 ...]]>
| |
| [APPEND] [APPEND_STRING]
| |
| PROPERTY <name> [value1 [value2 ...]])
| |
| | |
| Set one property on zero or more objects of a scope. The first
| |
| argument determines the scope in which the property is set. It must
| |
| be one of the following:
| |
| | |
| GLOBAL scope is unique and does not accept a name.
| |
| | |
| DIRECTORY scope defaults to the current directory but another
| |
| directory (already processed by CMake) may be named by full or
| |
| relative path.
| |
| | |
| TARGET scope may name zero or more existing targets.
| |
| | |
| SOURCE scope may name zero or more source files. Note that source
| |
| file properties are visible only to targets added in the same
| |
| directory (CMakeLists.txt).
| |
| | |
| TEST scope may name zero or more existing tests.
| |
| | |
| CACHE scope must name zero or more cache existing entries.
| |
| | |
| The required PROPERTY option is immediately followed by the name of
| |
| the property to set. Remaining arguments are used to compose the
| |
| property value in the form of a semicolon-separated list. If the
| |
| APPEND option is given the list is appended to any existing property
| |
| value.If the APPEND_STRING option is given the string is append to any
| |
| existing property value as string, i.e. it results in a longer string
| |
| and not a list of strings.
| |
| | |
| site_name
| |
| Set the given variable to the name of the computer.
| |
| | |
| site_name(variable)
| |
| | |

| |
| | |
| REGEX MATCH will match the regular expression once and store the match
| |
| in the output variable.
| |
| | |
| REGEX MATCHALL will match the regular expression as many times as
| |
| possible and store the matches in the output variable as a list.
| |
| | |
| REGEX REPLACE will match the regular expression as many times as
| |
| possible and substitute the replacement expression for the match in
| |
| the output. The replace expression may refer to paren-delimited
| |
| subexpressions of the match using \1, \2, ..., \9. Note that two
| |
| backslashes (\\1) are required in CMake code to get a backslash
| |
| through argument parsing.
| |
| | |
| REPLACE will replace all occurrences of match_string in the input with
| |
| replace_string and store the result in the output.
| |
| | |
| MD5, SHA1, SHA224, SHA256, SHA384, and SHA512 will compute a
| |
| cryptographic hash of the input string.
| |
| | |
| COMPARE EQUAL/NOTEQUAL/LESS/GREATER will compare the strings and store
| |
| true or false in the output variable.
| |
| | |
| ASCII will convert all numbers into corresponding ASCII characters.
| |
| | |
| CONFIGURE will transform a string like CONFIGURE_FILE transforms a
| |
| file.
| |
| | |
| TOUPPER/TOLOWER will convert string to upper/lower characters.
| |
| | |
| LENGTH will return a given string's length.
| |
| | |
| SUBSTRING will return a substring of a given string. If length is -1
| |
| the remainder of the string starting at begin will be returned.
| |
| | |
| STRIP will return a substring of a given string with leading and
| |
| trailing spaces removed.
| |
| | |
| RANDOM will return a random string of given length consisting of
| |
| characters from the given alphabet. Default length is 5 characters
| |
| and default alphabet is all numbers and upper and lower case letters.
| |
| If an integer RANDOM_SEED is given, its value will be used to seed the
| |
| random number generator.
| |
| | |
| FIND will return the position where the given substring was found in
| |
| the supplied string. If the REVERSE flag was used, the command will
| |
| search for the position of the last occurrence of the specified
| |
| substring.
| |
| | |
| The following characters have special meaning in regular expressions:
| |
| | |
| ^ Matches at beginning of input
| |
| $ Matches at end of input
| |
| . Matches any single character
| |
| [ ] Matches any character(s) inside the brackets
| |
| [^ ] Matches any character(s) not inside the brackets
| |
| - Inside brackets, specifies an inclusive range between
| |
| characters on either side e.g. [a-f] is [abcdef]
| |
| To match a literal - using brackets, make it the first
| |
| or the last character e.g. [+*/-] matches basic
| |
| mathematical operators.
| |
| * Matches preceding pattern zero or more times
| |
| + Matches preceding pattern one or more times
| |
| ? Matches preceding pattern zero or once only
| |
| | Matches a pattern on either side of the |
| |
| () Saves a matched subexpression, which can be referenced
| |
| in the REGEX REPLACE operation. Additionally it is saved
| |
| by all regular expression-related commands, including
| |
| e.g. if( MATCHES ), in the variables CMAKE_MATCH_(0..9).
| |
| | |
| *, + and ? have higher precedence than concatenation. | has lower
| |
| precedence than concatenation. This means that the regular expression
| |
| "^ab+d$" matches "abbd" but not "ababd", and the regular expression
| |
| "^(ab|cd)$" matches "ab" but not "abd".
| |
| | |
| TIMESTAMP will write a string representation of the current date
| |
| and/or time to the output variable.
| |
| | |
| Should the command be unable to obtain a timestamp the output variable
| |
| will be set to the empty string "".
| |
| | |
| The optional UTC flag requests the current date/time representation to
| |
| be in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) rather than local time.
| |
| | |
| The optional <format string> may contain the following format
| |
| specifiers:
| |
| | |
| %d The day of the current month (01-31).
| |
| %H The hour on a 24-hour clock (00-23).
| |
| %I The hour on a 12-hour clock (01-12).
| |
| %j The day of the current year (001-366).
| |
| %m The month of the current year (01-12).
| |
| %M The minute of the current hour (00-59).
| |
| %S The second of the current minute.
| |
| 60 represents a leap second. (00-60)
| |
| %U The week number of the current year (00-53).
| |
| %w The day of the current week. 0 is Sunday. (0-6)
| |
| %y The last two digits of the current year (00-99)
| |
| %Y The current year.
| |
| | |
| Unknown format specifiers will be ignored and copied to the output
| |
| as-is.
| |
| | |
| If no explicit <format string> is given it will default to:
| |
| | |
| %Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S for local time.
| |
| %Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ for UTC.
| |
| | |
| unset
| |
| Unset a variable, cache variable, or environment variable.
| |
| | |
| unset(<variable> [CACHE])
| |
| | |
| Removes the specified variable causing it to become undefined. If
| |
| CACHE is present then the variable is removed from the cache instead
| |
| of the current scope.
| |
| | |
| <variable> can be an environment variable such as:
| |
| | |
| unset(ENV{LD_LIBRARY_PATH})
| |
| | |
| in which case the variable will be removed from the current
| |
| environment.
| |
| | |
| variable_watch
| |
| Watch the CMake variable for change.
| |
| | |
| variable_watch(<variable name> [<command to execute>])
| |
| | |
| If the specified variable changes, the message will be printed about
| |
| the variable being changed. If the command is specified, the command
| |
| will be executed. The command will receive the following arguments:
| |
| COMMAND(<variable> <access> <value> <current list file> <stack>)
| |
| | |
| while
| |
| Evaluate a group of commands while a condition is true
| |
| | |
| while(condition)
| |
| COMMAND1(ARGS ...)
| |
| COMMAND2(ARGS ...)
| |
| ...
| |
| endwhile(condition)
| |
| | |
| All commands between while and the matching endwhile are recorded
| |
| without being invoked. Once the endwhile is evaluated, the recorded
| |
| list of commands is invoked as long as the condition is true. The
| |
| condition is evaluated using the same logic as the if command.

| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Properties of Global Scope
| |
| | |
| ALLOW_DUPLICATE_CUSTOM_TARGETS
| |
| Allow duplicate custom targets to be created.
| |
| | |
| Normally CMake requires that all targets built in a project have
| |
| globally unique logical names (see policy CMP0002). This is necessary
| |
| to generate meaningful project file names in Xcode and VS IDE
| |
| generators. It also allows the target names to be referenced
| |
| unambiguously.
| |
| | |
| Makefile generators are capable of supporting duplicate custom target
| |
| names. For projects that care only about Makefile generators and do
| |
| not wish to support Xcode or VS IDE generators, one may set this
| |
| property to true to allow duplicate custom targets. The property
| |
| allows multiple add_custom_target command calls in different
| |
| directories to specify the same target name. However, setting this
| |
| property will cause non-Makefile generators to produce an error and
| |
| refuse to generate the project.
| |
| | |
| DEBUG_CONFIGURATIONS
| |
| Specify which configurations are for debugging.
| |
| | |
| The value must be a semi-colon separated list of configuration names.
| |
| Currently this property is used only by the target_link_libraries
| |
| command (see its documentation for details). Additional uses may be
| |
| defined in the future.
| |
| | |
| This property must be set at the top level of the project and before
| |
| the first target_link_libraries command invocation. If any entry in
| |
| the list does not match a valid configuration for the project the
| |
| behavior is undefined.
| |
| | |
| DISABLED_FEATURES
| |
| List of features which are disabled during the CMake run.
| |
| | |
| List of features which are disabled during the CMake run. By default
| |
| it contains the names of all packages which were not found. This is
| |
| determined using the <NAME>_FOUND variables. Packages which are
| |
| searched QUIET are not listed. A project can add its own features to
| |
| this list. This property is used by the macros in
| |
| FeatureSummary.cmake.
| |
| | |
| ENABLED_FEATURES
| |
| List of features which are enabled during the CMake run.
| |
| | |
| List of features which are enabled during the CMake run. By default
| |
| it contains the names of all packages which were found. This is
| |
| determined using the <NAME>_FOUND variables. Packages which are
| |
| searched QUIET are not listed. A project can add its own features to
| |
| this list. This property is used by the macros in
| |
| FeatureSummary.cmake.
| |
| | |
| ENABLED_LANGUAGES
| |
| Read-only property that contains the list of currently enabled
| |
| languages
| |
| | |
| Set to list of currently enabled languages.
| |
| | |
| FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIB64_PATHS
| |
| Whether FIND_LIBRARY should automatically search lib64 directories.
| |
| | |
| FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIB64_PATHS is a boolean specifying whether the
| |
| FIND_LIBRARY command should automatically search the lib64 variant of
| |
| directories called lib in the search path when building 64-bit
| |
| binaries.
| |
| | |
| FIND_LIBRARY_USE_OPENBSD_VERSIONING
| |
| Whether FIND_LIBRARY should find OpenBSD-style shared libraries.
| |
| | |
| This property is a boolean specifying whether the FIND_LIBRARY command
| |
| should find shared libraries with OpenBSD-style versioned extension:
| |
| ".so.<major>.<minor>". The property is set to true on OpenBSD and
| |
| false on other platforms.
| |
| | |
| GLOBAL_DEPENDS_DEBUG_MODE
| |
| Enable global target dependency graph debug mode.
| |
| | |
| CMake automatically analyzes the global inter-target dependency graph
| |
| at the beginning of native build system generation. This property
| |
| causes it to display details of its analysis to stderr.
| |
| | |
| GLOBAL_DEPENDS_NO_CYCLES
| |
| Disallow global target dependency graph cycles.
| |
| | |
| CMake automatically analyzes the global inter-target dependency graph
| |
| at the beginning of native build system generation. It reports an
| |
| error if the dependency graph contains a cycle that does not consist
| |
| of all STATIC library targets. This property tells CMake to disallow
| |
| all cycles completely, even among static libraries.
| |
| | |
| IN_TRY_COMPILE
| |
| Read-only property that is true during a try-compile configuration.
| |
| | |
| True when building a project inside a TRY_COMPILE or TRY_RUN command.
| |
| | |
| PACKAGES_FOUND
| |
| List of packages which were found during the CMake run.
| |
| | |
| List of packages which were found during the CMake run. Whether a
| |
| package has been found is determined using the <NAME>_FOUND variables.
| |
| | |
| PACKAGES_NOT_FOUND
| |
| List of packages which were not found during the CMake run.
| |
| | |
| List of packages which were not found during the CMake run. Whether a
| |
| package has been found is determined using the <NAME>_FOUND variables.
| |
| | |
| PREDEFINED_TARGETS_FOLDER
| |
| Name of FOLDER for targets that are added automatically by CMake.
| |
| | |
| If not set, CMake uses "CMakePredefinedTargets" as a default value for
| |
| this property. Targets such as INSTALL, PACKAGE and RUN_TESTS will be
| |
| organized into this FOLDER. See also the documentation for the FOLDER
| |
| target property.
| |
| | |
| REPORT_UNDEFINED_PROPERTIES
| |
| If set, report any undefined properties to this file.
| |
| | |
| If this property is set to a filename then when CMake runs it will
| |
| report any properties or variables that were accessed but not defined
| |
| into the filename specified in this property.
| |
| | |
| RULE_LAUNCH_COMPILE
| |
| Specify a launcher for compile rules.
| |
| | |
| Makefile generators prefix compiler commands with the given launcher
| |
| command line. This is intended to allow launchers to intercept build
| |
| problems with high granularity. Non-Makefile generators currently
| |
| ignore this property.
| |
| | |
| RULE_LAUNCH_CUSTOM
| |
| Specify a launcher for custom rules.
| |
| | |
| Makefile generators prefix custom commands with the given launcher
| |
| command line. This is intended to allow launchers to intercept build
| |
| problems with high granularity. Non-Makefile generators currently
| |
| ignore this property.
| |
| | |
| RULE_LAUNCH_LINK
| |
| Specify a launcher for link rules.
| |
| | |
| Makefile generators prefix link and archive commands with the given
| |
| launcher command line. This is intended to allow launchers to
| |
| intercept build problems with high granularity. Non-Makefile
| |
| generators currently ignore this property.
| |
| | |
| RULE_MESSAGES
| |
| Specify whether to report a message for each make rule.
| |
| | |
| This property specifies whether Makefile generators should add a
| |
| progress message describing what each build rule does. If the
| |
| property is not set the default is ON. Set the property to OFF to
| |
| disable granular messages and report only as each target completes.
| |
| This is intended to allow scripted builds to avoid the build time cost
| |
| of detailed reports. If a CMAKE_RULE_MESSAGES cache entry exists its
| |
| value initializes the value of this property. Non-Makefile generators
| |
| currently ignore this property.
| |
| | |
| TARGET_ARCHIVES_MAY_BE_SHARED_LIBS
| |
| Set if shared libraries may be named like archives.
| |
| | |
| On AIX shared libraries may be named "lib<name>.a". This property is
| |
| set to true on such platforms.
| |
| | |
| TARGET_SUPPORTS_SHARED_LIBS
| |
| Does the target platform support shared libraries.
| |
| | |
| TARGET_SUPPORTS_SHARED_LIBS is a boolean specifying whether the target
| |
| platform supports shared libraries. Basically all current general
| |
| general purpose OS do so, the exception are usually embedded systems
| |
| with no or special OSs.
| |
| | |
| USE_FOLDERS
| |
| Use the FOLDER target property to organize targets into folders.
| |
| | |
| If not set, CMake treats this property as OFF by default. CMake
| |
| generators that are capable of organizing into a hierarchy of folders
| |
| use the values of the FOLDER target property to name those folders.
| |
| See also the documentation for the FOLDER target property.
| |
| | |
| __CMAKE_DELETE_CACHE_CHANGE_VARS_
| |
| Internal property
| |
| | |
| Used to detect compiler changes, Do not set.
| |
| | |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Properties on Cache Entries
| |
| | |
| ADVANCED
| |
| True if entry should be hidden by default in GUIs.
| |
| | |
| This is a boolean value indicating whether the entry is considered
| |
| interesting only for advanced configuration. The mark_as_advanced()
| |
| command modifies this property.
| |
| | |
| HELPSTRING
| |
| Help associated with entry in GUIs.
| |
| | |
| This string summarizes the purpose of an entry to help users set it
| |
| through a CMake GUI.
| |
| | |
| MODIFIED
| |
| Internal management property. Do not set or get.
| |
| | |
| This is an internal cache entry property managed by CMake to track
| |
| interactive user modification of entries. Ignore it.
| |
| | |
| STRINGS
| |
| Enumerate possible STRING entry values for GUI selection.
| |
| | |
| For cache entries with type STRING, this enumerates a set of values.
| |
| CMake GUIs may use this to provide a selection widget instead of a
| |
| generic string entry field. This is for convenience only. CMake does
| |
| not enforce that the value matches one of those listed.
| |
| | |
| TYPE
| |
| Widget type for entry in GUIs.
| |
| | |
| Cache entry values are always strings, but CMake GUIs present widgets
| |
| to help users set values. The GUIs use this property as a hint to
| |
| determine the widget type. Valid TYPE values are:
| |
| | |
| BOOL = Boolean ON/OFF value.
| |
| PATH = Path to a directory.
| |
| FILEPATH = Path to a file.
| |
| STRING = Generic string value.
| |
| INTERNAL = Do not present in GUI at all.
| |
| STATIC = Value managed by CMake, do not change.
| |
| UNINITIALIZED = Type not yet specified.
| |
| | |
| Generally the TYPE of a cache entry should be set by the command which
| |
| creates it (set, option, find_library, etc.).
| |
| | |
| VALUE
| |
| Value of a cache entry.
| |
| | |
| This property maps to the actual value of a cache entry. Setting this
| |
| property always sets the value without checking, so use with care.
| |
| | |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Properties on Directories
| |
| | |
| ADDITIONAL_MAKE_CLEAN_FILES
| |
| Additional files to clean during the make clean stage.
| |
| | |
| A list of files that will be cleaned as a part of the "make clean"
| |
| stage.
| |
| | |
| CACHE_VARIABLES
| |
| List of cache variables available in the current directory.
| |
| | |
| This read-only property specifies the list of CMake cache variables
| |
| currently defined. It is intended for debugging purposes.
| |
| | |
| CLEAN_NO_CUSTOM
| |
| Should the output of custom commands be left.
| |
| | |
| If this is true then the outputs of custom commands for this directory
| |
| will not be removed during the "make clean" stage.
| |
| | |
| COMPILE_DEFINITIONS
| |
| Preprocessor definitions for compiling a directory's sources.
| |
| | |
| The COMPILE_DEFINITIONS property may be set to a semicolon-separated
| |
| list of preprocessor definitions using the syntax VAR or VAR=value.
| |
| Function-style definitions are not supported. CMake will
| |
| automatically escape the value correctly for the native build system
| |
| (note that CMake language syntax may require escapes to specify some
| |
| values). This property may be set on a per-configuration basis using
| |
| the name COMPILE_DEFINITIONS_<CONFIG> where <CONFIG> is an upper-case
| |
| name (ex. "COMPILE_DEFINITIONS_DEBUG"). This property will be
| |
| initialized in each directory by its value in the directory's parent.
| |
| | |
| CMake will automatically drop some definitions that are not supported
| |
| by the native build tool. The VS6 IDE does not support definition
| |
| values with spaces (but NMake does).
| |
| | |
| Disclaimer: Most native build tools have poor support for escaping
| |
| certain values. CMake has work-arounds for many cases but some values
| |
| may just not be possible to pass correctly. If a value does not seem
| |
| to be escaped correctly, do not attempt to work-around the problem by
| |
| adding escape sequences to the value. Your work-around may break in a
| |
| future version of CMake that has improved escape support. Instead
| |
| consider defining the macro in a (configured) header file. Then
| |
| report the limitation. Known limitations include:
| |
| | |
| # - broken almost everywhere
| |
| ; - broken in VS IDE and Borland Makefiles
| |
| , - broken in VS IDE
| |
| % - broken in some cases in NMake
| |
| & | - broken in some cases on MinGW
| |
| ^ < > \" - broken in most Make tools on Windows
| |
| | |
| CMake does not reject these values outright because they do work in
| |
| some cases. Use with caution.
| |
| | |
| COMPILE_DEFINITIONS_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration preprocessor definitions in a directory.
| |
| | |
| This is the configuration-specific version of COMPILE_DEFINITIONS.
| |
| This property will be initialized in each directory by its value in
| |
| the directory's parent.
| |
| | |
| | |
| DEFINITIONS
| |
| For CMake 2.4 compatibility only. Use COMPILE_DEFINITIONS instead.
| |
| | |
| This read-only property specifies the list of flags given so far to
| |
| the add_definitions command. It is intended for debugging purposes.
| |
| Use the COMPILE_DEFINITIONS instead.
| |
| | |
| EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL
| |
| Exclude the directory from the all target of its parent.
| |
| | |
| A property on a directory that indicates if its targets are excluded
| |
| from the default build target. If it is not, then with a Makefile for
| |
| example typing make will cause the targets to be built. The same
| |
| concept applies to the default build of other generators.
| |
| | |
| IMPLICIT_DEPENDS_INCLUDE_TRANSFORM
| |
| Specify #include line transforms for dependencies in a directory.
| |
| | |
| This property specifies rules to transform macro-like #include lines
| |
| during implicit dependency scanning of C and C++ source files. The
| |
| list of rules must be semicolon-separated with each entry of the form
| |
| "A_MACRO(%)=value-with-%" (the % must be literal). During dependency
| |
| scanning occurrences of A_MACRO(...) on #include lines will be
| |
| replaced by the value given with the macro argument substituted for
| |
| '%'. For example, the entry
| |
| | |
| MYDIR(%)=<mydir/%>
| |
| | |
| will convert lines of the form
| |
| | |
| #include MYDIR(myheader.h)
| |
| | |
| to
| |
| | |
| #include <mydir/myheader.h>
| |
| | |
| allowing the dependency to be followed.
| |
| | |
| This property applies to sources in all targets within a directory.
| |
| The property value is initialized in each directory by its value in
| |
| the directory's parent.
| |
| | |
| INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES
| |
| List of preprocessor include file search directories.
| |
| | |
| This property specifies the list of directories given so far to the
| |
| include_directories command. This property exists on directories and
| |
| targets. In addition to accepting values from the include_directories
| |
| command, values may be set directly on any directory or any target
| |
| using the set_property command. A target gets its initial value for
| |
| this property from the value of the directory property. A directory
| |
| gets its initial value from its parent directory if it has one. Both
| |
| directory and target property values are adjusted by calls to the
| |
| include_directories command.
| |
| | |
| The target property values are used by the generators to set the
| |
| include paths for the compiler. See also the include_directories
| |
| command.
| |
| | |
| INCLUDE_REGULAR_EXPRESSION
| |
| Include file scanning regular expression.
| |
| | |
| This read-only property specifies the regular expression used during
| |
| dependency scanning to match include files that should be followed.
| |
| See the include_regular_expression command.
| |
| | |
| INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION
| |
| Enable interprocedural optimization for targets in a directory.
| |
| | |
| If set to true, enables interprocedural optimizations if they are
| |
| known to be supported by the compiler.
| |
| | |
| INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration interprocedural optimization for a directory.
| |
| | |
| This is a per-configuration version of INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION.
| |
| If set, this property overrides the generic property for the named
| |
| configuration.
| |
| | |
| LINK_DIRECTORIES
| |
| List of linker search directories.
| |
| | |
| This read-only property specifies the list of directories given so far
| |
| to the link_directories command. It is intended for debugging
| |
| purposes.
| |
| | |
| LISTFILE_STACK
| |
| The current stack of listfiles being processed.
| |
| | |
| This property is mainly useful when trying to debug errors in your
| |
| CMake scripts. It returns a list of what list files are currently
| |
| being processed, in order. So if one listfile does an INCLUDE command
| |
| then that is effectively pushing the included listfile onto the stack.
| |
| | |
| MACROS
| |
| List of macro commands available in the current directory.
| |
| | |
| This read-only property specifies the list of CMake macros currently
| |
| defined. It is intended for debugging purposes. See the macro
| |
| command.
| |
| | |
| PARENT_DIRECTORY
| |
| Source directory that added current subdirectory.
| |
| | |
| This read-only property specifies the source directory that added the
| |
| current source directory as a subdirectory of the build. In the
| |
| top-level directory the value is the empty-string.
| |
| | |
| RULE_LAUNCH_COMPILE
| |
| Specify a launcher for compile rules.
| |
| | |
| See the global property of the same name for details. This overrides
| |
| the global property for a directory.
| |
| | |
| RULE_LAUNCH_CUSTOM
| |
| Specify a launcher for custom rules.
| |
| | |
| See the global property of the same name for details. This overrides
| |
| the global property for a directory.
| |
| | |
| RULE_LAUNCH_LINK
| |
| Specify a launcher for link rules.
| |
| | |
| See the global property of the same name for details. This overrides
| |
| the global property for a directory.
| |
| | |
| TEST_INCLUDE_FILE
| |
| A cmake file that will be included when ctest is run.
| |
| | |
| If you specify TEST_INCLUDE_FILE, that file will be included and
| |
| processed when ctest is run on the directory.
| |
| | |
| VARIABLES
| |
| List of variables defined in the current directory.
| |
| | |
| This read-only property specifies the list of CMake variables
| |
| currently defined. It is intended for debugging purposes.
| |
| | |
| VS_GLOBAL_SECTION_POST_<section>
| |
| Specify a postSolution global section in Visual Studio.
| |
| | |
| Setting a property like this generates an entry of the following form
| |
| in the solution file:
| |
| | |
| GlobalSection(<section>) = postSolution
| |
| <contents based on property value>
| |
| EndGlobalSection
| |
| | |
| The property must be set to a semicolon-separated list of key=value
| |
| pairs. Each such pair will be transformed into an entry in the
| |
| solution global section. Whitespace around key and value is ignored.
| |
| List elements which do not contain an equal sign are skipped.
| |
| | |
| This property only works for Visual Studio 7 and above; it is ignored
| |
| on other generators. The property only applies when set on a
| |
| directory whose CMakeLists.txt conatins a project() command.
| |
| | |
| Note that CMake generates postSolution sections ExtensibilityGlobals
| |
| and ExtensibilityAddIns by default. If you set the corresponding
| |
| property, it will override the default section. For example, setting
| |
| VS_GLOBAL_SECTION_POST_ExtensibilityGlobals will override the default
| |
| contents of the ExtensibilityGlobals section, while keeping
| |
| ExtensibilityAddIns on its default.
| |
| | |
| VS_GLOBAL_SECTION_PRE_<section>
| |
| Specify a preSolution global section in Visual Studio.
| |
| | |
| Setting a property like this generates an entry of the following form
| |
| in the solution file:
| |
| | |
| GlobalSection(<section>) = preSolution
| |
| <contents based on property value>
| |
| EndGlobalSection
| |
| | |
| The property must be set to a semicolon-separated list of key=value
| |
| pairs. Each such pair will be transformed into an entry in the
| |
| solution global section. Whitespace around key and value is ignored.
| |
| List elements which do not contain an equal sign are skipped.
| |
| | |
| This property only works for Visual Studio 7 and above; it is ignored
| |
| on other generators. The property only applies when set on a
| |
| directory whose CMakeLists.txt conatins a project() command.
| |
| | |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Properties on Source Files
| |
| | |
| ABSTRACT
| |
| Is this source file an abstract class.
| |
| | |
| A property on a source file that indicates if the source file
| |
| represents a class that is abstract. This only makes sense for
| |
| languages that have a notion of an abstract class and it is only used
| |
| by some tools that wrap classes into other languages.
| |
| | |
| COMPILE_DEFINITIONS
| |
| Preprocessor definitions for compiling a source file.
| |
| | |
| The COMPILE_DEFINITIONS property may be set to a semicolon-separated
| |
| list of preprocessor definitions using the syntax VAR or VAR=value.
| |
| Function-style definitions are not supported. CMake will
| |
| automatically escape the value correctly for the native build system
| |
| (note that CMake language syntax may require escapes to specify some
| |
| values). This property may be set on a per-configuration basis using
| |
| the name COMPILE_DEFINITIONS_<CONFIG> where <CONFIG> is an upper-case
| |
| name (ex. "COMPILE_DEFINITIONS_DEBUG").
| |
| | |
| CMake will automatically drop some definitions that are not supported
| |
| by the native build tool. The VS6 IDE does not support definition
| |
| values with spaces (but NMake does). Xcode does not support
| |
| per-configuration definitions on source files.
| |
| | |
| Disclaimer: Most native build tools have poor support for escaping
| |
| certain values. CMake has work-arounds for many cases but some values
| |
| may just not be possible to pass correctly. If a value does not seem
| |
| to be escaped correctly, do not attempt to work-around the problem by
| |
| adding escape sequences to the value. Your work-around may break in a
| |
| future version of CMake that has improved escape support. Instead
| |
| consider defining the macro in a (configured) header file. Then
| |
| report the limitation. Known limitations include:
| |
| | |
| # - broken almost everywhere
| |
| ; - broken in VS IDE and Borland Makefiles
| |
| , - broken in VS IDE
| |
| % - broken in some cases in NMake
| |
| & | - broken in some cases on MinGW
| |
| ^ < > \" - broken in most Make tools on Windows
| |
| | |
| CMake does not reject these values outright because they do work in
| |
| some cases. Use with caution.
| |
| | |
| COMPILE_DEFINITIONS_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration preprocessor definitions on a source file.
| |
| | |
| This is the configuration-specific version of COMPILE_DEFINITIONS.
| |
| Note that Xcode does not support per-configuration source file flags
| |
| so this property will be ignored by the Xcode generator.
| |
| | |
| COMPILE_FLAGS
| |
| Additional flags to be added when compiling this source file.
| |
| | |
| These flags will be added to the list of compile flags when this
| |
| source file builds. Use COMPILE_DEFINITIONS to pass additional
| |
| preprocessor definitions.
| |
| | |
| EXTERNAL_OBJECT
| |
| If set to true then this is an object file.
| |
| | |
| If this property is set to true then the source file is really an
| |
| object file and should not be compiled. It will still be linked into
| |
| the target though.
| |
| | |
| Fortran_FORMAT
| |
| Set to FIXED or FREE to indicate the Fortran source layout.
| |
| | |
| This property tells CMake whether a given Fortran source file uses
| |
| fixed-format or free-format. CMake will pass the corresponding format
| |
| flag to the compiler. Consider using the target-wide Fortran_FORMAT
| |
| property if all source files in a target share the same format.
| |
| | |
| GENERATED
| |
| Is this source file generated as part of the build process.
| |
| | |
| If a source file is generated by the build process CMake will handle
| |
| it differently in terms of dependency checking etc. Otherwise having
| |
| a non-existent source file could create problems.
| |
| | |
| HEADER_FILE_ONLY
| |
| Is this source file only a header file.
| |
| | |
| A property on a source file that indicates if the source file is a
| |
| header file with no associated implementation. This is set
| |
| automatically based on the file extension and is used by CMake to
| |
| determine if certain dependency information should be computed.
| |
| | |
| KEEP_EXTENSION
| |
| Make the output file have the same extension as the source file.
| |
| | |
| If this property is set then the file extension of the output file
| |
| will be the same as that of the source file. Normally the output file
| |
| extension is computed based on the language of the source file, for
| |
| example .cxx will go to a .o extension.
| |
| | |
| LABELS
| |
| Specify a list of text labels associated with a source file.
| |
| | |
| This property has meaning only when the source file is listed in a
| |
| target whose LABELS property is also set. No other semantics are
| |
| currently specified.
| |
| | |
| LANGUAGE
| |
| What programming language is the file.
| |
| | |
| A property that can be set to indicate what programming language the
| |
| source file is. If it is not set the language is determined based on
| |
| the file extension. Typical values are CXX C etc. Setting this
| |
| property for a file means this file will be compiled. Do not set this
| |
| for header or files that should not be compiled.
| |
| | |
| LOCATION
| |
| The full path to a source file.
| |
| | |
| A read only property on a SOURCE FILE that contains the full path to
| |
| the source file.
| |
| | |
| MACOSX_PACKAGE_LOCATION
| |
| Place a source file inside a Mac OS X bundle, CFBundle, or framework.
| |
| | |
| Executable targets with the MACOSX_BUNDLE property set are built as
| |
| Mac OS X application bundles on Apple platforms. Shared library
| |
| targets with the FRAMEWORK property set are built as Mac OS X
| |
| frameworks on Apple platforms. Module library targets with the BUNDLE
| |
| property set are built as Mac OS X CFBundle bundles on Apple
| |
| platforms. Source files listed in the target with this property set
| |
| will be copied to a directory inside the bundle or framework content
| |
| folder specified by the property value. For bundles the content
| |
| folder is "<name>.app/Contents". For frameworks the content folder is
| |
| "<name>.framework/Versions/<version>". For cfbundles the content
| |
| folder is "<name>.bundle/Contents" (unless the extension is changed).
| |
| See the PUBLIC_HEADER, PRIVATE_HEADER, and RESOURCE target properties
| |
| for specifying files meant for Headers, PrivateHeaders, or Resources
| |
| directories.
| |
| | |
| OBJECT_DEPENDS
| |
| Additional files on which a compiled object file depends.
| |
| | |
| Specifies a semicolon-separated list of full-paths to files on which
| |
| any object files compiled from this source file depend. An object
| |
| file will be recompiled if any of the named files is newer than it.
| |
| | |
| This property need not be used to specify the dependency of a source
| |
| file on a generated header file that it includes. Although the
| |
| property was originally introduced for this purpose, it is no longer
| |
| necessary. If the generated header file is created by a custom
| |
| command in the same target as the source file, the automatic
| |
| dependency scanning process will recognize the dependency. If the
| |
| generated header file is created by another target, an inter-target
| |
| dependency should be created with the add_dependencies command (if one
| |
| does not already exist due to linking relationships).
| |
| | |
| OBJECT_OUTPUTS
| |
| Additional outputs for a Makefile rule.
| |
| | |
| Additional outputs created by compilation of this source file. If any
| |
| of these outputs is missing the object will be recompiled. This is
| |
| supported only on Makefile generators and will be ignored on other
| |
| generators.
| |
| | |
| SYMBOLIC
| |
| Is this just a name for a rule.
| |
| | |
| If SYMBOLIC (boolean) is set to true the build system will be informed
| |
| that the source file is not actually created on disk but instead used
| |
| as a symbolic name for a build rule.
| |
| | |
| WRAP_EXCLUDE
| |
| Exclude this source file from any code wrapping techniques.
| |
| | |
| Some packages can wrap source files into alternate languages to
| |
| provide additional functionality. For example, C++ code can be
| |
| wrapped into Java or Python etc using SWIG etc. If WRAP_EXCLUDE is
| |
| set to true (1 etc) that indicates then this source file should not be
| |
| wrapped.
| |
| | |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Properties on Targets
| |
| | |
| <CONFIG>_OUTPUT_NAME
| |
| Old per-configuration target file base name.
| |
| | |
| This is a configuration-specific version of OUTPUT_NAME. Use
| |
| OUTPUT_NAME_<CONFIG> instead.
| |
| | |
| <CONFIG>_POSTFIX
| |
| Postfix to append to the target file name for configuration <CONFIG>.
| |
| | |
| When building with configuration <CONFIG> the value of this property
| |
| is appended to the target file name built on disk. For non-executable
| |
| targets, this property is initialized by the value of the variable
| |
| CMAKE_<CONFIG>_POSTFIX if it is set when a target is created. This
| |
| property is ignored on the Mac for Frameworks and App Bundles.
| |
| | |
| ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
| |
| Output directory in which to build ARCHIVE target files.
| |
| | |
| This property specifies the directory into which archive target files
| |
| should be built. Multi-configuration generators (VS, Xcode) append a
| |
| per-configuration subdirectory to the specified directory. There are
| |
| three kinds of target files that may be built: archive, library, and
| |
| runtime. Executables are always treated as runtime targets. Static
| |
| libraries are always treated as archive targets. Module libraries are
| |
| always treated as library targets. For non-DLL platforms shared
| |
| libraries are treated as library targets. For DLL platforms the DLL
| |
| part of a shared library is treated as a runtime target and the
| |
| corresponding import library is treated as an archive target. All
| |
| Windows-based systems including Cygwin are DLL platforms. This
| |
| property is initialized by the value of the variable
| |
| CMAKE_ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY if it is set when a target is created.
| |
| | |
| ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration output directory for ARCHIVE target files.
| |
| | |
| This is a per-configuration version of ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY, but
| |
| multi-configuration generators (VS, Xcode) do NOT append a
| |
| per-configuration subdirectory to the specified directory. This
| |
| property is initialized by the value of the variable
| |
| CMAKE_ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG> if it is set when a target is
| |
| created.
| |
| | |
| ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_NAME
| |
| Output name for ARCHIVE target files.
| |
| | |
| This property specifies the base name for archive target files. It
| |
| overrides OUTPUT_NAME and OUTPUT_NAME_<CONFIG> properties. There are
| |
| three kinds of target files that may be built: archive, library, and
| |
| runtime. Executables are always treated as runtime targets. Static
| |
| libraries are always treated as archive targets. Module libraries are
| |
| always treated as library targets. For non-DLL platforms shared
| |
| libraries are treated as library targets. For DLL platforms the DLL
| |
| part of a shared library is treated as a runtime target and the
| |
| corresponding import library is treated as an archive target. All
| |
| Windows-based systems including Cygwin are DLL platforms.
| |
| | |
| ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_NAME_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration output name for ARCHIVE target files.
| |
| | |
| This is the configuration-specific version of ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_NAME.
| |
| | |
| AUTOMOC
| |
| Should the target be processed with automoc (for Qt projects).
| |
| | |
| AUTOMOC is a boolean specifying whether CMake will handle the Qt moc
| |
| preprocessor automatically, i.e. without having to use the
| |
| QT4_WRAP_CPP() or QT5_WRAP_CPP() macro. Currently Qt4 and Qt5 are
| |
| supported. When this property is set to TRUE, CMake will scan the
| |
| source files at build time and invoke moc accordingly. If an #include
| |
| statement like #include "moc_foo.cpp" is found, the Q_OBJECT class
| |
| declaration is expected in the header, and moc is run on the header
| |
| file. If an #include statement like #include "foo.moc" is found, then
| |
| a Q_OBJECT is expected in the current source file and moc is run on
| |
| the file itself. Additionally, all header files are parsed for
| |
| Q_OBJECT macros, and if found, moc is also executed on those files.
| |
| The resulting moc files, which are not included as shown above in any
| |
| of the source files are included in a generated
| |
| <targetname>_automoc.cpp file, which is compiled as part of the
| |
| target.This property is initialized by the value of the variable
| |
| CMAKE_AUTOMOC if it is set when a target is created.
| |
| | |
| Additional command line options for moc can be set via the
| |
| AUTOMOC_MOC_OPTIONS property.
| |
| | |
| By setting the CMAKE_AUTOMOC_RELAXED_MODE variable to TRUE the rules
| |
| for searching the files which will be processed by moc can be relaxed.
| |
| See the documentation for this variable for more details.
| |
| | |
| AUTOMOC_MOC_OPTIONS
| |
| Additional options for moc when using automoc (see the AUTOMOC
| |
| property)
| |
| | |
| This property is only used if the AUTOMOC property is set to TRUE for
| |
| this target. In this case, it holds additional command line options
| |
| which will be used when moc is executed during the build, i.e. it is
| |
| equivalent to the optional OPTIONS argument of the qt4_wrap_cpp()
| |
| macro.
| |
| | |
| By default it is empty.
| |
| | |
| BUILD_WITH_INSTALL_RPATH
| |
| Should build tree targets have install tree rpaths.
| |
| | |
| BUILD_WITH_INSTALL_RPATH is a boolean specifying whether to link the
| |
| target in the build tree with the INSTALL_RPATH. This takes
| |
| precedence over SKIP_BUILD_RPATH and avoids the need for relinking
| |
| before installation. This property is initialized by the value of the
| |
| variable CMAKE_BUILD_WITH_INSTALL_RPATH if it is set when a target is
| |
| created.
| |
| | |
| BUNDLE
| |
| This target is a CFBundle on the Mac.
| |
| | |
| If a module library target has this property set to true it will be
| |
| built as a CFBundle when built on the mac. It will have the directory
| |
| structure required for a CFBundle and will be suitable to be used for
| |
| creating Browser Plugins or other application resources.
| |
| | |
| BUNDLE_EXTENSION
| |
| The file extension used to name a BUNDLE target on the Mac.
| |
| | |
| The default value is "bundle" - you can also use "plugin" or whatever
| |
| file extension is required by the host app for your bundle.
| |
| | |
| COMPATIBLE_INTERFACE_BOOL
| |
| Properties which must be compatible with their link interface
| |
| | |
| The COMPATIBLE_INTERFACE_BOOL property may contain a list of
| |
| propertiesfor this target which must be consistent when evaluated as a
| |
| boolean in the INTERFACE of all linked dependees. For example, if a
| |
| property "FOO" appears in the list, then for each dependee, the
| |
| "INTERFACE_FOO" property content in all of its dependencies must be
| |
| consistent with each other, and with the "FOO" property in the
| |
| dependee. Consistency in this sense has the meaning that if the
| |
| property is set, then it must have the same boolean value as all
| |
| others, and if the property is not set, then it is ignored. Note that
| |
| for each dependee, the set of properties from this property must not
| |
| intersect with the set of properties from the
| |
| COMPATIBLE_INTERFACE_STRING property.
| |
| | |
| COMPATIBLE_INTERFACE_STRING
| |
| Properties which must be string-compatible with their link interface
| |
| | |
| The COMPATIBLE_INTERFACE_STRING property may contain a list of
| |
| properties for this target which must be the same when evaluated as a
| |
| string in the INTERFACE of all linked dependees. For example, if a
| |
| property "FOO" appears in the list, then for each dependee, the
| |
| "INTERFACE_FOO" property content in all of its dependencies must be
| |
| equal with each other, and with the "FOO" property in the dependee.
| |
| If the property is not set, then it is ignored. Note that for each
| |
| dependee, the set of properties from this property must not intersect
| |
| with the set of properties from the COMPATIBLE_INTERFACE_BOOL
| |
| property.
| |
| | |
| COMPILE_DEFINITIONS
| |
| Preprocessor definitions for compiling a target's sources.
| |
| | |
| The COMPILE_DEFINITIONS property may be set to a semicolon-separated
| |
| list of preprocessor definitions using the syntax VAR or VAR=value.
| |
| Function-style definitions are not supported. CMake will
| |
| automatically escape the value correctly for the native build system
| |
| (note that CMake language syntax may require escapes to specify some
| |
| values). This property may be set on a per-configuration basis using
| |
| the name COMPILE_DEFINITIONS_<CONFIG> where <CONFIG> is an upper-case
| |
| name (ex. "COMPILE_DEFINITIONS_DEBUG").
| |
| | |
| CMake will automatically drop some definitions that are not supported
| |
| by the native build tool. The VS6 IDE does not support definition
| |
| values with spaces (but NMake does).
| |
| | |
| Contents of COMPILE_DEFINITIONS may use "generator expressions" with
| |
| the syntax "$<...>". Generator expressions are evaluted during build
| |
| system generation to produce information specific to each build
| |
| configuration. Valid expressions are:
| |
| | |
| $<0:...> = empty string (ignores "...")
| |
| $<1:...> = content of "..."
| |
| $<CONFIG:cfg> = '1' if config is "cfg", else '0'
| |
| $<CONFIGURATION> = configuration name
| |
| $<BOOL:...> = '1' if the '...' is true, else '0'
| |
| $<STREQUAL:a,b> = '1' if a is STREQUAL b, else '0'
| |
| $<ANGLE-R> = A literal '>'. Used to compare strings which contain a '>' for example.
| |
| $<COMMA> = A literal ','. Used to compare strings which contain a ',' for example.
| |
| $<SEMICOLON> = A literal ';'. Used to prevent list expansion on an argument with ';'.
| |
| $<TARGET_NAME:...> = Marks ... as being the name of a target. This is required if exporting targets to multiple dependent export sets. The '...' must be a literal name of a target- it may not contain generator expressions.
| |
| $<INSTALL_INTERFACE:...> = content of "..." when the property is exported using install(EXPORT), and empty otherwise.
| |
| $<BUILD_INTERFACE:...> = content of "..." when the property is exported using export(), or when the target is used by another target in the same buildsystem. Expands to the empty string otherwise.
| |
| $<TARGET_FILE:tgt> = main file (.exe, .so.1.2, .a)
| |
| $<TARGET_LINKER_FILE:tgt> = file used to link (.a, .lib, .so)
| |
| $<TARGET_SONAME_FILE:tgt> = file with soname (.so.3)
| |
| | |
| where "tgt" is the name of a target. Target file expressions produce
| |
| a full path, but _DIR and _NAME versions can produce the directory and
| |
| file name components:
| |
| | |
| $<TARGET_FILE_DIR:tgt>/$<TARGET_FILE_NAME:tgt>
| |
| $<TARGET_LINKER_FILE_DIR:tgt>/$<TARGET_LINKER_FILE_NAME:tgt>
| |
| $<TARGET_SONAME_FILE_DIR:tgt>/$<TARGET_SONAME_FILE_NAME:tgt>
| |
| | |
|
| |
| | |
| $<TARGET_PROPERTY:tgt,prop> = The value of the property prop on the target tgt.
| |
| | |
| Note that tgt is not added as a dependency of the target this
| |
| expression is evaluated on.
| |
| | |
| $<TARGET_POLICY:pol> = '1' if the policy was NEW when the 'head' target was created, else '0'. If the policy was not set, the warning message for the policy will be emitted. This generator expression only works for a subset of policies.
| |
| $<INSTALL_PREFIX> = Content of the install prefix when the target is exported via INSTALL(EXPORT) and empty otherwise.
| |
| | |
| Boolean expressions:
| |
| | |
| $<AND:?[,?]...> = '1' if all '?' are '1', else '0'
| |
| $<OR:?[,?]...> = '0' if all '?' are '0', else '1'
| |
| $<NOT:?> = '0' if '?' is '1', else '1'
| |
| | |
| where '?' is always either '0' or '1'.
| |
| | |
| Expressions with an implicit 'this' target:
| |
| | |
| $<TARGET_PROPERTY:prop> = The value of the property prop on the target on which the generator expression is evaluated.
| |
| | |
| Disclaimer: Most native build tools have poor support for escaping
| |
| certain values. CMake has work-arounds for many cases but some values
| |
| may just not be possible to pass correctly. If a value does not seem
| |
| to be escaped correctly, do not attempt to work-around the problem by
| |
| adding escape sequences to the value. Your work-around may break in a
| |
| future version of CMake that has improved escape support. Instead
| |
| consider defining the macro in a (configured) header file. Then
| |
| report the limitation. Known limitations include:
| |
| | |
| # - broken almost everywhere
| |
| ; - broken in VS IDE and Borland Makefiles
| |
| , - broken in VS IDE
| |
| % - broken in some cases in NMake
| |
| & | - broken in some cases on MinGW
| |
| ^ < > \" - broken in most Make tools on Windows
| |
| | |
| CMake does not reject these values outright because they do work in
| |
| some cases. Use with caution.
| |
| | |
| COMPILE_DEFINITIONS_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration preprocessor definitions on a target.
| |
| | |
| This is the configuration-specific version of COMPILE_DEFINITIONS.
| |
| | |
| COMPILE_FLAGS
| |
| Additional flags to use when compiling this target's sources.
| |
| | |
| The COMPILE_FLAGS property sets additional compiler flags used to
| |
| build sources within the target. Use COMPILE_DEFINITIONS to pass
| |
| additional preprocessor definitions.
| |
| | |
| DEBUG_POSTFIX
| |
| See target property <CONFIG>_POSTFIX.
| |
| | |
| This property is a special case of the more-general <CONFIG>_POSTFIX
| |
| property for the DEBUG configuration.
| |
| | |
| DEFINE_SYMBOL
| |
| Define a symbol when compiling this target's sources.
| |
| | |
| DEFINE_SYMBOL sets the name of the preprocessor symbol defined when
| |
| compiling sources in a shared library. If not set here then it is set
| |
| to target_EXPORTS by default (with some substitutions if the target is
| |
| not a valid C identifier). This is useful for headers to know whether
| |
| they are being included from inside their library our outside to
| |
| properly setup dllexport/dllimport decorations.
| |
| | |
| ENABLE_EXPORTS
| |
| Specify whether an executable exports symbols for loadable modules.
| |
| | |
| Normally an executable does not export any symbols because it is the
| |
| final program. It is possible for an executable to export symbols to
| |
| be used by loadable modules. When this property is set to true CMake
| |
| will allow other targets to "link" to the executable with the
| |
| TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES command. On all platforms a target-level
| |
| dependency on the executable is created for targets that link to it.
| |
| For DLL platforms an import library will be created for the exported
| |
| symbols and then used for linking. All Windows-based systems
| |
| including Cygwin are DLL platforms. For non-DLL platforms that
| |
| require all symbols to be resolved at link time, such as Mac OS X, the
| |
| module will "link" to the executable using a flag like
| |
| "-bundle_loader". For other non-DLL platforms the link rule is simply
| |
| ignored since the dynamic loader will automatically bind symbols when
| |
| the module is loaded.
| |
| | |
| EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL
| |
| Exclude the target from the all target.
| |
| | |
| A property on a target that indicates if the target is excluded from
| |
| the default build target. If it is not, then with a Makefile for
| |
| example typing make will cause this target to be built. The same
| |
| concept applies to the default build of other generators. Installing
| |
| a target with EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL set to true has undefined behavior.
| |
| | |
| EXCLUDE_FROM_DEFAULT_BUILD
| |
| Exclude target from "Build Solution".
| |
| | |
| This property is only used by Visual Studio generators 7 and above.
| |
| When set to TRUE, the target will not be built when you press "Build
| |
| Solution".
| |
| | |
| EXCLUDE_FROM_DEFAULT_BUILD_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration version of target exclusion from "Build Solution".
| |
| | |
| This is the configuration-specific version of
| |
| EXCLUDE_FROM_DEFAULT_BUILD. If the generic EXCLUDE_FROM_DEFAULT_BUILD
| |
| is also set on a target, EXCLUDE_FROM_DEFAULT_BUILD_<CONFIG> takes
| |
| precedence in configurations for which it has a value.
| |
| | |
| EchoString
| |
| A message to be displayed when the target is built.
| |
| | |
| A message to display on some generators (such as makefiles) when the
| |
| target is built.
| |
| | |
| FOLDER
| |
| Set the folder name. Use to organize targets in an IDE.
| |
| | |
| Targets with no FOLDER property will appear as top level entities in
| |
| IDEs like Visual Studio. Targets with the same FOLDER property value
| |
| will appear next to each other in a folder of that name. To nest
| |
| folders, use FOLDER values such as 'GUI/Dialogs' with '/' characters
| |
| separating folder levels.
| |
| | |
| FRAMEWORK
| |
| This target is a framework on the Mac.
| |
| | |
| If a shared library target has this property set to true it will be
| |
| built as a framework when built on the mac. It will have the
| |
| directory structure required for a framework and will be suitable to
| |
| be used with the -framework option
| |
| | |
| Fortran_FORMAT
| |
| Set to FIXED or FREE to indicate the Fortran source layout.
| |
| | |
| This property tells CMake whether the Fortran source files in a target
| |
| use fixed-format or free-format. CMake will pass the corresponding
| |
| format flag to the compiler. Use the source-specific Fortran_FORMAT
| |
| property to change the format of a specific source file. If the
| |
| variable CMAKE_Fortran_FORMAT is set when a target is created its
| |
| value is used to initialize this property.
| |
| | |
| Fortran_MODULE_DIRECTORY
| |
| Specify output directory for Fortran modules provided by the target.
| |
| | |
| If the target contains Fortran source files that provide modules and
| |
| the compiler supports a module output directory this specifies the
| |
| directory in which the modules will be placed. When this property is
| |
| not set the modules will be placed in the build directory
| |
| corresponding to the target's source directory. If the variable
| |
| CMAKE_Fortran_MODULE_DIRECTORY is set when a target is created its
| |
| value is used to initialize this property.
| |
| | |
| Note that some compilers will automatically search the module output
| |
| directory for modules USEd during compilation but others will not. If
| |
| your sources USE modules their location must be specified by
| |
| INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES regardless of this property.
| |
| | |
| GENERATOR_FILE_NAME
| |
| Generator's file for this target.
| |
| | |
| An internal property used by some generators to record the name of
| |
| project or dsp file associated with this target. Note that at
| |
| configure time, this property is only set for targets created by
| |
| include_external_msproject().
| |
| | |
| GNUtoMS
| |
| Convert GNU import library (.dll.a) to MS format (.lib).
| |
| | |
| When linking a shared library or executable that exports symbols using
| |
| GNU tools on Windows (MinGW/MSYS) with Visual Studio installed convert
| |
| the import library (.dll.a) from GNU to MS format (.lib). Both import
| |
| libraries will be installed by install(TARGETS) and exported by
| |
| install(EXPORT) and export() to be linked by applications with either
| |
| GNU- or MS-compatible tools.
| |
| | |
| If the variable CMAKE_GNUtoMS is set when a target is created its
| |
| value is used to initialize this property. The variable must be set
| |
| prior to the first command that enables a language such as project()
| |
| or enable_language(). CMake provides the variable as an option to the
| |
| user automatically when configuring on Windows with GNU tools.
| |
| | |
| HAS_CXX
| |
| Link the target using the C++ linker tool (obsolete).
| |
| | |
| This is equivalent to setting the LINKER_LANGUAGE property to CXX.
| |
| See that property's documentation for details.
| |
| | |
| IMPLICIT_DEPENDS_INCLUDE_TRANSFORM
| |
| Specify #include line transforms for dependencies in a target.
| |
| | |
| This property specifies rules to transform macro-like #include lines
| |
| during implicit dependency scanning of C and C++ source files. The
| |
| list of rules must be semicolon-separated with each entry of the form
| |
| "A_MACRO(%)=value-with-%" (the % must be literal). During dependency
| |
| scanning occurrences of A_MACRO(...) on #include lines will be
| |
| replaced by the value given with the macro argument substituted for
| |
| '%'. For example, the entry
| |
| | |
| MYDIR(%)=<mydir/%>
| |
| | |
| will convert lines of the form
| |
| | |
| #include MYDIR(myheader.h)
| |
| | |
| to
| |
| | |
| #include <mydir/myheader.h>
| |
| | |
| allowing the dependency to be followed.
| |
| | |
| This property applies to sources in the target on which it is set.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED
| |
| Read-only indication of whether a target is IMPORTED.
| |
| | |
| The boolean value of this property is true for targets created with
| |
| the IMPORTED option to add_executable or add_library. It is false for
| |
| targets built within the project.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_CONFIGURATIONS
| |
| Configurations provided for an IMPORTED target.
| |
| | |
| Set this to the list of configuration names available for an IMPORTED
| |
| target. The names correspond to configurations defined in the project
| |
| from which the target is imported. If the importing project uses a
| |
| different set of configurations the names may be mapped using the
| |
| MAP_IMPORTED_CONFIG_<CONFIG> property. Ignored for non-imported
| |
| targets.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_IMPLIB
| |
| Full path to the import library for an IMPORTED target.
| |
| | |
| Set this to the location of the ".lib" part of a windows DLL. Ignored
| |
| for non-imported targets.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_IMPLIB_<CONFIG>
| |
| <CONFIG>-specific version of IMPORTED_IMPLIB property.
| |
| | |
| Configuration names correspond to those provided by the project from
| |
| which the target is imported.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_LINK_DEPENDENT_LIBRARIES
| |
| Dependent shared libraries of an imported shared library.
| |
| | |
| Shared libraries may be linked to other shared libraries as part of
| |
| their implementation. On some platforms the linker searches for the
| |
| dependent libraries of shared libraries they are including in the
| |
| link. Set this property to the list of dependent shared libraries of
| |
| an imported library. The list should be disjoint from the list of
| |
| interface libraries in the IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES property.
| |
| On platforms requiring dependent shared libraries to be found at link
| |
| time CMake uses this list to add appropriate files or paths to the
| |
| link command line. Ignored for non-imported targets.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_LINK_DEPENDENT_LIBRARIES_<CONFIG>
| |
| <CONFIG>-specific version of IMPORTED_LINK_DEPENDENT_LIBRARIES.
| |
| | |
| Configuration names correspond to those provided by the project from
| |
| which the target is imported. If set, this property completely
| |
| overrides the generic property for the named configuration.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LANGUAGES
| |
| Languages compiled into an IMPORTED static library.
| |
| | |
| Set this to the list of languages of source files compiled to produce
| |
| a STATIC IMPORTED library (such as "C" or "CXX"). CMake accounts for
| |
| these languages when computing how to link a target to the imported
| |
| library. For example, when a C executable links to an imported C++
| |
| static library CMake chooses the C++ linker to satisfy language
| |
| runtime dependencies of the static library.
| |
| | |
| This property is ignored for targets that are not STATIC libraries.
| |
| This property is ignored for non-imported targets.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LANGUAGES_<CONFIG>
| |
| <CONFIG>-specific version of IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LANGUAGES.
| |
| | |
| Configuration names correspond to those provided by the project from
| |
| which the target is imported. If set, this property completely
| |
| overrides the generic property for the named configuration.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES
| |
| Transitive link interface of an IMPORTED target.
| |
| | |
| Set this to the list of libraries whose interface is included when an
| |
| IMPORTED library target is linked to another target. The libraries
| |
| will be included on the link line for the target. Unlike the
| |
| LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES property, this property applies to all
| |
| imported target types, including STATIC libraries. This property is
| |
| ignored for non-imported targets.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES_<CONFIG>
| |
| <CONFIG>-specific version of IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES.
| |
| | |
| Configuration names correspond to those provided by the project from
| |
| which the target is imported. If set, this property completely
| |
| overrides the generic property for the named configuration.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_MULTIPLICITY
| |
| Repetition count for cycles of IMPORTED static libraries.
| |
| | |
| This is LINK_INTERFACE_MULTIPLICITY for IMPORTED targets.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_MULTIPLICITY_<CONFIG>
| |
| <CONFIG>-specific version of IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_MULTIPLICITY.
| |
| | |
| If set, this property completely overrides the generic property for
| |
| the named configuration.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_LOCATION
| |
| Full path to the main file on disk for an IMPORTED target.
| |
| | |
| Set this to the location of an IMPORTED target file on disk. For
| |
| executables this is the location of the executable file. For bundles
| |
| on OS X this is the location of the executable file inside
| |
| Contents/MacOS under the application bundle folder. For static
| |
| libraries and modules this is the location of the library or module.
| |
| For shared libraries on non-DLL platforms this is the location of the
| |
| shared library. For frameworks on OS X this is the location of the
| |
| library file symlink just inside the framework folder. For DLLs this
| |
| is the location of the ".dll" part of the library. For UNKNOWN
| |
| libraries this is the location of the file to be linked. Ignored for
| |
| non-imported targets.
| |
| | |
| Projects may skip IMPORTED_LOCATION if the configuration-specific
| |
| property IMPORTED_LOCATION_<CONFIG> is set. To get the location of an
| |
| imported target read one of the LOCATION or LOCATION_<CONFIG>
| |
| properties.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_LOCATION_<CONFIG>
| |
| <CONFIG>-specific version of IMPORTED_LOCATION property.
| |
| | |
| Configuration names correspond to those provided by the project from
| |
| which the target is imported.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_NO_SONAME
| |
| Specifies that an IMPORTED shared library target has no "soname".
| |
| | |
| Set this property to true for an imported shared library file that has
| |
| no "soname" field. CMake may adjust generated link commands for some
| |
| platforms to prevent the linker from using the path to the library in
| |
| place of its missing soname. Ignored for non-imported targets.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_NO_SONAME_<CONFIG>
| |
| <CONFIG>-specific version of IMPORTED_NO_SONAME property.
| |
| | |
| Configuration names correspond to those provided by the project from
| |
| which the target is imported.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_SONAME
| |
| The "soname" of an IMPORTED target of shared library type.
| |
| | |
| Set this to the "soname" embedded in an imported shared library. This
| |
| is meaningful only on platforms supporting the feature. Ignored for
| |
| non-imported targets.
| |
| | |
| IMPORTED_SONAME_<CONFIG>
| |
| <CONFIG>-specific version of IMPORTED_SONAME property.
| |
| | |
| Configuration names correspond to those provided by the project from
| |
| which the target is imported.
| |
| | |
| IMPORT_PREFIX
| |
| What comes before the import library name.
| |
| | |
| Similar to the target property PREFIX, but used for import libraries
| |
| (typically corresponding to a DLL) instead of regular libraries. A
| |
| target property that can be set to override the prefix (such as "lib")
| |
| on an import library name.
| |
| | |
| IMPORT_SUFFIX
| |
| What comes after the import library name.
| |
| | |
| Similar to the target property SUFFIX, but used for import libraries
| |
| (typically corresponding to a DLL) instead of regular libraries. A
| |
| target property that can be set to override the suffix (such as
| |
| ".lib") on an import library name.
| |
| | |
| INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES
| |
| List of preprocessor include file search directories.
| |
| | |
| This property specifies the list of directories given so far to the
| |
| include_directories command. This property exists on directories and
| |
| targets. In addition to accepting values from the include_directories
| |
| command, values may be set directly on any directory or any target
| |
| using the set_property command. A target gets its initial value for
| |
| this property from the value of the directory property. A directory
| |
| gets its initial value from its parent directory if it has one. Both
| |
| directory and target property values are adjusted by calls to the
| |
| include_directories command.
| |
| | |
| The target property values are used by the generators to set the
| |
| include paths for the compiler. See also the include_directories
| |
| command.
| |
| | |
| Contents of INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES may use "generator expressions" with
| |
| the syntax "$<...>". Generator expressions are evaluted during build
| |
| system generation to produce information specific to each build
| |
| configuration. Valid expressions are:
| |
| | |
| $<0:...> = empty string (ignores "...")
| |
| $<1:...> = content of "..."
| |
| $<CONFIG:cfg> = '1' if config is "cfg", else '0'

| |
| $<INSTALL_INTERFACE:...> = content of "..." when the property is exported using install(EXPORT), and empty otherwise.
| |
| $<BUILD_INTERFACE:...> = content of "..." when the property is exported using export(), or when the target is used by another target in the same buildsystem. Expands to the empty string otherwise.

| |
| $<TARGET_SONAME_FILE:tgt> = file with soname (.so.3)
| |
| | |
| where "tgt" is the name of a target. Target file expressions produce
| |
| a full path, but _DIR and _NAME versions can produce the directory and
| |
| file name components:
| |
| | |
| $<TARGET_FILE_DIR:tgt>/$<TARGET_FILE_NAME:tgt>
| |
| $<TARGET_LINKER_FILE_DIR:tgt>/$<TARGET_LINKER_FILE_NAME:tgt>
| |
| $<TARGET_SONAME_FILE_DIR:tgt>/$<TARGET_SONAME_FILE_NAME:tgt>
| |
| | |
|
| |
| | |
| $<TARGET_PROPERTY:tgt,prop> = The value of the property prop on the target tgt.
| |
| | |
| Note that tgt is not added as a dependency of the target this
| |
| expression is evaluated on.
| |
| | |
| $<TARGET_POLICY:pol> = '1' if the policy was NEW when the 'head' target was created, else '0'. If the policy was not set, the warning message for the policy will be emitted. This generator expression only works for a subset of policies.
| |
| $<INSTALL_PREFIX> = Content of the install prefix when the target is exported via INSTALL(EXPORT) and empty otherwise.
| |
| | |
| Boolean expressions:
| |
| | |

| |
| $<OR:?[,?]...> = '0' if all '?' are '0', else '1'
| |
| $<NOT:?> = '0' if '?' is '1', else '1'
| |
| | |
| where '?' is always either '0' or '1'.

| $<TARGET_PROPERTY:prop> = The value of the property prop on the target on which the generator expression is evaluated.
| |
| | |
| | |
| INSTALL_NAME_DIR
| |
| Mac OSX directory name for installed targets.
| |
| | |
| INSTALL_NAME_DIR is a string specifying the directory portion of the
| |
| "install_name" field of shared libraries on Mac OSX to use in the

| INSTALL_RPATH
| |
| The rpath to use for installed targets.
| |
| | |
| A semicolon-separated list specifying the rpath to use in installed

| targets (for platforms that support it). This property is initialized
| |
| by the value of the variable CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH if it is set when a
| |
| target is created.
| |
| | |
| INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH
| |
| Add paths to linker search and installed rpath.
| |
| | |
| INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH is a boolean that if set to true will
| |
| append directories in the linker search path and outside the project
| |
| to the INSTALL_RPATH. This property is initialized by the value of
| |
| the variable CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH if it is set when a
| |
| target is created.
| |
| | |
| INTERFACE_COMPILE_DEFINITIONS
| |
| List of public compile definitions for a library.
| |
| | |
| Targets may populate this property to publish the compile definitions
| |
| required to compile against the headers for the target. Consuming
| |
| targets can add entries to their own COMPILE_DEFINITIONS property such
| |
| as $<TARGET_PROPERTY:foo,INTERFACE_COMPILE_DEFINITIONS> to use the
| |
| compile definitions specified in the interface of 'foo'.
| |
| | |

| $<TARGET_SONAME_FILE:tgt> = file with soname (.so.3)
| |
| | |
| where "tgt" is the name of a target. Target file expressions produce

| INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES
| |
| List of public include directories for a library.
| |
| | |
| Targets may populate this property to publish the include directories
| |

| | |
| INTERFACE_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE
| |
| Whether consumers need to create a position-independent target
| |
| | |
| The INTERFACE_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE property informs consumers of
| |
| this target whether they must set their POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE
| |
| property to ON. If this property is set to ON, then the
| |
| POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE property on all consumers will be set to ON.
| |
| Similarly, if this property is set to OFF, then the
| |
| POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE property on all consumers will be set to
| |
| OFF. If this property is undefined, then consumers will determine
| |
| their POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE property by other means. Consumers
| |
| must ensure that the targets that they link to have a consistent
| |
| requirement for their INTERFACE_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE property.
| |
| | |
| INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION
| |
| Enable interprocedural optimization for a target.
| |
| | |
| If set to true, enables interprocedural optimizations if they are
| |
| known to be supported by the compiler.
| |
| | |
| INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration interprocedural optimization for a target.
| |
| | |
| This is a per-configuration version of INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION.
| |
| If set, this property overrides the generic property for the named
| |
| configuration.
| |
| | |
| LABELS
| |
| Specify a list of text labels associated with a target.
| |
| | |
| Target label semantics are currently unspecified.
| |
| | |
| LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
| |
| Output directory in which to build LIBRARY target files.
| |
| | |
| This property specifies the directory into which library target files
| |
| should be built. Multi-configuration generators (VS, Xcode) append a
| |
| per-configuration subdirectory to the specified directory. There are
| |
| three kinds of target files that may be built: archive, library, and
| |
| runtime. Executables are always treated as runtime targets. Static
| |
| libraries are always treated as archive targets. Module libraries are
| |
| always treated as library targets. For non-DLL platforms shared
| |
| libraries are treated as library targets. For DLL platforms the DLL
| |
| part of a shared library is treated as a runtime target and the
| |
| corresponding import library is treated as an archive target. All
| |
| Windows-based systems including Cygwin are DLL platforms. This
| |
| property is initialized by the value of the variable
| |
| CMAKE_LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY if it is set when a target is created.
| |
| | |
| LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration output directory for LIBRARY target files.
| |
| | |
| This is a per-configuration version of LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY, but
| |
| multi-configuration generators (VS, Xcode) do NOT append a
| |
| per-configuration subdirectory to the specified directory. This
| |
| property is initialized by the value of the variable
| |
| CMAKE_LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG> if it is set when a target is
| |
| created.
| |
| | |
| LIBRARY_OUTPUT_NAME
| |
| Output name for LIBRARY target files.
| |
| | |
| This property specifies the base name for library target files. It
| |
| overrides OUTPUT_NAME and OUTPUT_NAME_<CONFIG> properties. There are
| |
| three kinds of target files that may be built: archive, library, and
| |
| runtime. Executables are always treated as runtime targets. Static
| |
| libraries are always treated as archive targets. Module libraries are
| |
| always treated as library targets. For non-DLL platforms shared
| |
| libraries are treated as library targets. For DLL platforms the DLL
| |
| part of a shared library is treated as a runtime target and the
| |
| corresponding import library is treated as an archive target. All
| |
| Windows-based systems including Cygwin are DLL platforms.
| |
| | |
| LIBRARY_OUTPUT_NAME_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration output name for LIBRARY target files.
| |
| | |
| This is the configuration-specific version of LIBRARY_OUTPUT_NAME.
| |
| | |
| LINKER_LANGUAGE
| |
| Specifies language whose compiler will invoke the linker.
| |
| | |
| For executables, shared libraries, and modules, this sets the language
| |
| whose compiler is used to link the target (such as "C" or "CXX"). A
| |
| typical value for an executable is the language of the source file
| |
| providing the program entry point (main). If not set, the language
| |
| with the highest linker preference value is the default. See
| |
| documentation of CMAKE_<LANG>_LINKER_PREFERENCE variables.
| |
| | |
| LINK_DEPENDS
| |
| Additional files on which a target binary depends for linking.
| |
| | |
| Specifies a semicolon-separated list of full-paths to files on which
| |
| the link rule for this target depends. The target binary will be
| |
| linked if any of the named files is newer than it.
| |
| | |
| This property is ignored by non-Makefile generators. It is intended
| |
| to specify dependencies on "linker scripts" for custom Makefile link
| |
| rules.
| |
| | |
| LINK_DEPENDS_NO_SHARED
| |
| Do not depend on linked shared library files.
| |
| | |
| Set this property to true to tell CMake generators not to add
| |
| file-level dependencies on the shared library files linked by this
| |
| target. Modification to the shared libraries will not be sufficient
| |
| to re-link this target. Logical target-level dependencies will not be
| |
| affected so the linked shared libraries will still be brought up to
| |
| date before this target is built.
| |
| | |
| This property is initialized by the value of the variable
| |
| CMAKE_LINK_DEPENDS_NO_SHARED if it is set when a target is created.
| |
| | |
| LINK_FLAGS
| |
| Additional flags to use when linking this target.
| |
| | |
| The LINK_FLAGS property can be used to add extra flags to the link
| |
| step of a target. LINK_FLAGS_<CONFIG> will add to the configuration
| |
| <CONFIG>, for example, DEBUG, RELEASE, MINSIZEREL, RELWITHDEBINFO.
| |
| | |
| LINK_FLAGS_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration linker flags for a target.
| |
| | |
| This is the configuration-specific version of LINK_FLAGS.
| |
| | |
| LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES
| |
| List public interface libraries for a shared library or executable.
| |
| | |
| By default linking to a shared library target transitively links to
| |
| targets with which the library itself was linked. For an executable
| |
| with exports (see the ENABLE_EXPORTS property) no default transitive
| |
| link dependencies are used. This property replaces the default
| |
| transitive link dependencies with an explicit list. When the target
| |
| is linked into another target the libraries listed (and recursively
| |
| their link interface libraries) will be provided to the other target
| |
| also. If the list is empty then no transitive link dependencies will
| |
| be incorporated when this target is linked into another target even if
| |
| the default set is non-empty. This property is initialized by the
| |
| value of the variable CMAKE_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES if it is set when
| |
| a target is created. This property is ignored for STATIC libraries.
| |
| | |
| LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration list of public interface libraries for a target.
| |
| | |
| This is the configuration-specific version of
| |
| LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES. If set, this property completely overrides
| |
| the generic property for the named configuration.
| |
| | |
| LINK_INTERFACE_MULTIPLICITY
| |
| Repetition count for STATIC libraries with cyclic dependencies.
| |
| | |
| When linking to a STATIC library target with cyclic dependencies the
| |
| linker may need to scan more than once through the archives in the
| |
| strongly connected component of the dependency graph. CMake by
| |
| default constructs the link line so that the linker will scan through
| |
| the component at least twice. This property specifies the minimum
| |
| number of scans if it is larger than the default. CMake uses the
| |
| largest value specified by any target in a component.
| |
| | |
| LINK_INTERFACE_MULTIPLICITY_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration repetition count for cycles of STATIC libraries.
| |
| | |
| This is the configuration-specific version of
| |
| LINK_INTERFACE_MULTIPLICITY. If set, this property completely
| |
| overrides the generic property for the named configuration.
| |
| | |
| LINK_LIBRARIES
| |
| List of direct link dependencies.
| |
| | |
| This property specifies the list of libraries or targets which will be
| |
| used for linking. In addition to accepting values from the
| |
| target_link_libraries command, values may be set directly on any
| |
| target using the set_property command.
| |
| | |
| The target property values are used by the generators to set the link
| |
| libraries for the compiler. See also the target_link_libraries
| |
| command.
| |
| | |
| Contents of LINK_LIBRARIES may use "generator expressions" with the
| |
| syntax "$<...>". Generator expressions are evaluted during build
| |
| system generation to produce information specific to each build
| |
| configuration. Valid expressions are:
| |
| | |
| $<0:...> = empty string (ignores "...")
| |
| $<1:...> = content of "..."
| |
| $<CONFIG:cfg> = '1' if config is "cfg", else '0'
| |
| $<CONFIGURATION> = configuration name
| |
| $<BOOL:...> = '1' if the '...' is true, else '0'
| |
| $<STREQUAL:a,b> = '1' if a is STREQUAL b, else '0'
| |
| $<ANGLE-R> = A literal '>'. Used to compare strings which contain a '>' for example.
| |
| $<COMMA> = A literal ','. Used to compare strings which contain a ',' for example.
| |
| $<SEMICOLON> = A literal ';'. Used to prevent list expansion on an argument with ';'.
| |
| $<TARGET_NAME:...> = Marks ... as being the name of a target. This is required if exporting targets to multiple dependent export sets. The '...' must be a literal name of a target- it may not contain generator expressions.
| |
| $<INSTALL_INTERFACE:...> = content of "..." when the property is exported using install(EXPORT), and empty otherwise.
| |
| $<BUILD_INTERFACE:...> = content of "..." when the property is exported using export(), or when the target is used by another target in the same buildsystem. Expands to the empty string otherwise.
| |
| $<TARGET_FILE:tgt> = main file (.exe, .so.1.2, .a)
| |
| $<TARGET_LINKER_FILE:tgt> = file used to link (.a, .lib, .so)
| |
| $<TARGET_SONAME_FILE:tgt> = file with soname (.so.3)
| |
| | |
| where "tgt" is the name of a target. Target file expressions produce
| |
| a full path, but _DIR and _NAME versions can produce the directory and
| |
| file name components:
| |
| | |
| $<TARGET_FILE_DIR:tgt>/$<TARGET_FILE_NAME:tgt>
| |
| $<TARGET_LINKER_FILE_DIR:tgt>/$<TARGET_LINKER_FILE_NAME:tgt>
| |
| $<TARGET_SONAME_FILE_DIR:tgt>/$<TARGET_SONAME_FILE_NAME:tgt>
| |
| | |
|
| |
| | |
| $<TARGET_PROPERTY:tgt,prop> = The value of the property prop on the target tgt.
| |
| | |
| Note that tgt is not added as a dependency of the target this
| |
| expression is evaluated on.
| |
| | |
| $<TARGET_POLICY:pol> = '1' if the policy was NEW when the 'head' target was created, else '0'. If the policy was not set, the warning message for the policy will be emitted. This generator expression only works for a subset of policies.
| |
| $<INSTALL_PREFIX> = Content of the install prefix when the target is exported via INSTALL(EXPORT) and empty otherwise.
| |
| | |
| Boolean expressions:
| |
| | |
| $<AND:?[,?]...> = '1' if all '?' are '1', else '0'
| |
| $<OR:?[,?]...> = '0' if all '?' are '0', else '1'
| |
| $<NOT:?> = '0' if '?' is '1', else '1'
| |
| | |
| where '?' is always either '0' or '1'.
| |
| | |
| Expressions with an implicit 'this' target:
| |
| | |
| $<TARGET_PROPERTY:prop> = The value of the property prop on the target on which the generator expression is evaluated.
| |
| | |
| | |
| LINK_SEARCH_END_STATIC
| |
| End a link line such that static system libraries are used.
| |
| | |
| Some linkers support switches such as -Bstatic and -Bdynamic to
| |
| determine whether to use static or shared libraries for -lXXX options.
| |
| CMake uses these options to set the link type for libraries whose full
| |
| paths are not known or (in some cases) are in implicit link
| |
| directories for the platform. By default CMake adds an option at the
| |
| end of the library list (if necessary) to set the linker search type
| |
| back to its starting type. This property switches the final linker
| |
| search type to -Bstatic regardless of how it started. See also
| |
| LINK_SEARCH_START_STATIC.
| |
| | |
| LINK_SEARCH_START_STATIC
| |
| Assume the linker looks for static libraries by default.
| |
| | |
| Some linkers support switches such as -Bstatic and -Bdynamic to
| |
| determine whether to use static or shared libraries for -lXXX options.
| |
| CMake uses these options to set the link type for libraries whose full
| |
| paths are not known or (in some cases) are in implicit link
| |
| directories for the platform. By default the linker search type is
| |
| assumed to be -Bdynamic at the beginning of the library list. This
| |
| property switches the assumption to -Bstatic. It is intended for use
| |
| when linking an executable statically (e.g. with the GNU -static
| |
| option). See also LINK_SEARCH_END_STATIC.
| |
| | |
| LOCATION
| |
| Read-only location of a target on disk.
| |
| | |
| For an imported target, this read-only property returns the value of
| |
| the LOCATION_<CONFIG> property for an unspecified configuration
| |
| <CONFIG> provided by the target.
| |
| | |
| For a non-imported target, this property is provided for compatibility
| |
| with CMake 2.4 and below. It was meant to get the location of an
| |
| executable target's output file for use in add_custom_command. The
| |
| path may contain a build-system-specific portion that is replaced at
| |
| build time with the configuration getting built (such as
| |
| "$(ConfigurationName)" in VS). In CMake 2.6 and above
| |
| add_custom_command automatically recognizes a target name in its
| |
| COMMAND and DEPENDS options and computes the target location. In
| |
| CMake 2.8.4 and above add_custom_command recognizes generator
| |
| expressions to refer to target locations anywhere in the command.
| |
| Therefore this property is not needed for creating custom commands.
| |
| | |
| Do not set properties that affect the location of a target after
| |
| reading this property. These include properties whose names match
| |
| "(RUNTIME|LIBRARY|ARCHIVE)_OUTPUT_(NAME|DIRECTORY)(_<CONFIG>)?",
| |
| "(IMPLIB_)?(PREFIX|SUFFIX)", or "LINKER_LANGUAGE". Failure to follow
| |
| this rule is not diagnosed and leaves the location of the target
| |
| undefined.
| |
| | |
| LOCATION_<CONFIG>
| |
| Read-only property providing a target location on disk.
| |
| | |
| A read-only property that indicates where a target's main file is
| |
| located on disk for the configuration <CONFIG>. The property is
| |
| defined only for library and executable targets. An imported target
| |
| may provide a set of configurations different from that of the
| |
| importing project. By default CMake looks for an exact-match but
| |
| otherwise uses an arbitrary available configuration. Use the
| |
| MAP_IMPORTED_CONFIG_<CONFIG> property to map imported configurations
| |
| explicitly.
| |
| | |
| Do not set properties that affect the location of a target after
| |
| reading this property. These include properties whose names match
| |
| "(RUNTIME|LIBRARY|ARCHIVE)_OUTPUT_(NAME|DIRECTORY)(_<CONFIG>)?",
| |
| "(IMPLIB_)?(PREFIX|SUFFIX)", or "LINKER_LANGUAGE". Failure to follow
| |
| this rule is not diagnosed and leaves the location of the target
| |
| undefined.
| |
| | |
| MACOSX_BUNDLE
| |
| Build an executable as an application bundle on Mac OS X.
| |
| | |
| When this property is set to true the executable when built on Mac OS
| |
| X will be created as an application bundle. This makes it a GUI
| |
| executable that can be launched from the Finder. See the
| |
| MACOSX_BUNDLE_INFO_PLIST target property for information about
| |
| creation of the Info.plist file for the application bundle. This
| |
| property is initialized by the value of the variable
| |
| CMAKE_MACOSX_BUNDLE if it is set when a target is created.
| |
| | |
| MACOSX_BUNDLE_INFO_PLIST
| |
| Specify a custom Info.plist template for a Mac OS X App Bundle.
| |
| | |
| An executable target with MACOSX_BUNDLE enabled will be built as an
| |
| application bundle on Mac OS X. By default its Info.plist file is
| |
| created by configuring a template called MacOSXBundleInfo.plist.in
| |
| located in the CMAKE_MODULE_PATH. This property specifies an
| |
| alternative template file name which may be a full path.
| |
| | |
| The following target properties may be set to specify content to be
| |
| configured into the file:
| |
| | |
| MACOSX_BUNDLE_INFO_STRING
| |
| MACOSX_BUNDLE_ICON_FILE
| |
| MACOSX_BUNDLE_GUI_IDENTIFIER
| |
| MACOSX_BUNDLE_LONG_VERSION_STRING
| |
| MACOSX_BUNDLE_BUNDLE_NAME
| |
| MACOSX_BUNDLE_SHORT_VERSION_STRING
| |
| MACOSX_BUNDLE_BUNDLE_VERSION
| |
| MACOSX_BUNDLE_COPYRIGHT
| |
| | |
| CMake variables of the same name may be set to affect all targets in a
| |
| directory that do not have each specific property set. If a custom
| |
| Info.plist is specified by this property it may of course hard-code
| |
| all the settings instead of using the target properties.
| |
| | |
| MACOSX_FRAMEWORK_INFO_PLIST
| |
| Specify a custom Info.plist template for a Mac OS X Framework.
| |
| | |
| An library target with FRAMEWORK enabled will be built as a framework
| |
| on Mac OS X. By default its Info.plist file is created by configuring
| |
| a template called MacOSXFrameworkInfo.plist.in located in the
| |
| CMAKE_MODULE_PATH. This property specifies an alternative template
| |
| file name which may be a full path.
| |
| | |
| The following target properties may be set to specify content to be
| |
| configured into the file:
| |
| | |
| MACOSX_FRAMEWORK_ICON_FILE
| |
| MACOSX_FRAMEWORK_IDENTIFIER
| |
| MACOSX_FRAMEWORK_SHORT_VERSION_STRING
| |
| MACOSX_FRAMEWORK_BUNDLE_VERSION
| |
| | |
| CMake variables of the same name may be set to affect all targets in a
| |
| directory that do not have each specific property set. If a custom
| |
| Info.plist is specified by this property it may of course hard-code
| |
| all the settings instead of using the target properties.
| |
| | |
| MAP_IMPORTED_CONFIG_<CONFIG>
| |
| Map from project configuration to IMPORTED target's configuration.
| |
| | |
| Set this to the list of configurations of an imported target that may
| |
| be used for the current project's <CONFIG> configuration. Targets
| |
| imported from another project may not provide the same set of
| |
| configuration names available in the current project. Setting this
| |
| property tells CMake what imported configurations are suitable for use
| |
| when building the <CONFIG> configuration. The first configuration in
| |
| the list found to be provided by the imported target is selected. If
| |
| this property is set and no matching configurations are available,
| |
| then the imported target is considered to be not found. This property
| |
| is ignored for non-imported targets.
| |
| | |
| NO_SONAME
| |
| Whether to set "soname" when linking a shared library or module.
| |
| | |
| Enable this boolean property if a generated shared library or module
| |
| should not have "soname" set. Default is to set "soname" on all
| |
| shared libraries and modules as long as the platform supports it.
| |
| Generally, use this property only for leaf private libraries or
| |
| plugins. If you use it on normal shared libraries which other targets
| |
| link against, on some platforms a linker will insert a full path to
| |
| the library (as specified at link time) into the dynamic section of
| |
| the dependent binary. Therefore, once installed, dynamic loader may
| |
| eventually fail to locate the library for the binary.
| |
| | |
| OSX_ARCHITECTURES
| |
| Target specific architectures for OS X.
| |
| | |
| The OSX_ARCHITECTURES property sets the target binary architecture for
| |
| targets on OS X. This property is initialized by the value of the
| |
| variable CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES if it is set when a target is
| |
| created. Use OSX_ARCHITECTURES_<CONFIG> to set the binary
| |
| architectures on a per-configuration basis. <CONFIG> is an upper-case
| |
| name (ex: "OSX_ARCHITECTURES_DEBUG").
| |
| | |
| OSX_ARCHITECTURES_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration OS X binary architectures for a target.
| |
| | |
| This property is the configuration-specific version of
| |
| OSX_ARCHITECTURES.
| |
| | |
| OUTPUT_NAME
| |
| Output name for target files.
| |
| | |
| This sets the base name for output files created for an executable or
| |
| library target. If not set, the logical target name is used by
| |
| default.
| |
| | |
| OUTPUT_NAME_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration target file base name.
| |
| | |
| This is the configuration-specific version of OUTPUT_NAME.
| |
| | |
| PDB_NAME
| |
| Output name for MS debug symbols .pdb file.
| |
| | |
| Set the base name for debug symbols file created for an executable or
| |
| library target. If not set, the logical target name is used by
| |
| default.
| |
| | |
| This property is not implemented by the Visual Studio 6 generator.
| |
| | |
| PDB_NAME_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration name for MS debug symbols .pdb file.
| |
| | |
| This is the configuration-specific version of PDB_NAME.
| |
| | |
| This property is not implemented by the Visual Studio 6 generator.
| |
| | |
| PDB_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
| |
| Output directory for MS debug symbols .pdb files.
| |
| | |
| This property specifies the directory into which the MS debug symbols
| |
| will be placed. This property is initialized by the value of the
| |
| variable CMAKE_PDB_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY if it is set when a target is
| |
| created.
| |
| | |
| This property is not implemented by the Visual Studio 6 generator.
| |
| | |
| PDB_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration output directory for MS debug symbols .pdb files.
| |
| | |
| This is a per-configuration version of PDB_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY, but
| |
| multi-configuration generators (VS, Xcode) do NOT append a
| |
| per-configuration subdirectory to the specified directory. This
| |
| property is initialized by the value of the variable
| |
| CMAKE_PDB_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG> if it is set when a target is
| |
| created.
| |
| | |
| This property is not implemented by the Visual Studio 6 generator.
| |
| | |
| POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE
| |
| Whether to create a position-independent target
| |
| | |
| The POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE property determines whether position
| |
| independent executables or shared libraries will be created. This
| |
| property is true by default for SHARED and MODULE library targets and
| |
| false otherwise. This property is initialized by the value of the
| |
| variable CMAKE_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE if it is set when a target is
| |
| created.
| |
| | |
| POST_INSTALL_SCRIPT
| |
| Deprecated install support.
| |
| | |
| The PRE_INSTALL_SCRIPT and POST_INSTALL_SCRIPT properties are the old
| |
| way to specify CMake scripts to run before and after installing a
| |
| target. They are used only when the old INSTALL_TARGETS command is
| |
| used to install the target. Use the INSTALL command instead.
| |
| | |
| PREFIX
| |
| What comes before the library name.
| |
| | |
| A target property that can be set to override the prefix (such as
| |
| "lib") on a library name.
| |
| | |
| PRE_INSTALL_SCRIPT
| |
| Deprecated install support.
| |
| | |
| The PRE_INSTALL_SCRIPT and POST_INSTALL_SCRIPT properties are the old
| |
| way to specify CMake scripts to run before and after installing a
| |
| target. They are used only when the old INSTALL_TARGETS command is
| |
| used to install the target. Use the INSTALL command instead.
| |
| | |
| PRIVATE_HEADER
| |
| Specify private header files in a FRAMEWORK shared library target.
| |
| | |
| Shared library targets marked with the FRAMEWORK property generate
| |
| frameworks on OS X and normal shared libraries on other platforms.
| |
| This property may be set to a list of header files to be placed in the
| |
| PrivateHeaders directory inside the framework folder. On non-Apple
| |
| platforms these headers may be installed using the PRIVATE_HEADER
| |
| option to the install(TARGETS) command.
| |
| | |
| PROJECT_LABEL
| |
| Change the name of a target in an IDE.
| |
| | |
| Can be used to change the name of the target in an IDE like Visual
| |
| Studio.
| |
| | |
| PUBLIC_HEADER
| |
| Specify public header files in a FRAMEWORK shared library target.
| |
| | |
| Shared library targets marked with the FRAMEWORK property generate
| |
| frameworks on OS X and normal shared libraries on other platforms.
| |
| This property may be set to a list of header files to be placed in the
| |
| Headers directory inside the framework folder. On non-Apple platforms
| |
| these headers may be installed using the PUBLIC_HEADER option to the
| |
| install(TARGETS) command.
| |
| | |
| RESOURCE
| |
| Specify resource files in a FRAMEWORK shared library target.
| |
| | |
| Shared library targets marked with the FRAMEWORK property generate
| |
| frameworks on OS X and normal shared libraries on other platforms.
| |
| This property may be set to a list of files to be placed in the
| |
| Resources directory inside the framework folder. On non-Apple
| |
| platforms these files may be installed using the RESOURCE option to
| |
| the install(TARGETS) command.
| |
| | |
| RULE_LAUNCH_COMPILE
| |
| Specify a launcher for compile rules.
| |
| | |
| See the global property of the same name for details. This overrides
| |
| the global and directory property for a target.
| |
| | |
| RULE_LAUNCH_CUSTOM
| |
| Specify a launcher for custom rules.
| |
| | |
| See the global property of the same name for details. This overrides
| |
| the global and directory property for a target.
| |
| | |
| RULE_LAUNCH_LINK
| |
| Specify a launcher for link rules.
| |
| | |
| See the global property of the same name for details. This overrides
| |
| the global and directory property for a target.
| |
| | |
| RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
| |
| Output directory in which to build RUNTIME target files.
| |
| | |
| This property specifies the directory into which runtime target files
| |
| should be built. Multi-configuration generators (VS, Xcode) append a
| |
| per-configuration subdirectory to the specified directory. There are
| |
| three kinds of target files that may be built: archive, library, and
| |
| runtime. Executables are always treated as runtime targets. Static
| |
| libraries are always treated as archive targets. Module libraries are
| |
| always treated as library targets. For non-DLL platforms shared
| |
| libraries are treated as library targets. For DLL platforms the DLL
| |
| part of a shared library is treated as a runtime target and the
| |
| corresponding import library is treated as an archive target. All
| |
| Windows-based systems including Cygwin are DLL platforms. This
| |
| property is initialized by the value of the variable
| |
| CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY if it is set when a target is created.
| |
| | |
| RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration output directory for RUNTIME target files.
| |
| | |
| This is a per-configuration version of RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY, but
| |
| multi-configuration generators (VS, Xcode) do NOT append a
| |
| per-configuration subdirectory to the specified directory. This
| |
| property is initialized by the value of the variable
| |
| CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG> if it is set when a target is
| |
| created.
| |
| | |
| RUNTIME_OUTPUT_NAME
| |
| Output name for RUNTIME target files.
| |
| | |
| This property specifies the base name for runtime target files. It
| |
| overrides OUTPUT_NAME and OUTPUT_NAME_<CONFIG> properties. There are
| |
| three kinds of target files that may be built: archive, library, and
| |
| runtime. Executables are always treated as runtime targets. Static
| |
| libraries are always treated as archive targets. Module libraries are
| |
| always treated as library targets. For non-DLL platforms shared
| |
| libraries are treated as library targets. For DLL platforms the DLL
| |
| part of a shared library is treated as a runtime target and the
| |
| corresponding import library is treated as an archive target. All
| |
| Windows-based systems including Cygwin are DLL platforms.
| |
| | |
| RUNTIME_OUTPUT_NAME_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration output name for RUNTIME target files.
| |
| | |
| This is the configuration-specific version of RUNTIME_OUTPUT_NAME.
| |
| | |
| SKIP_BUILD_RPATH
| |
| Should rpaths be used for the build tree.
| |
| | |
| SKIP_BUILD_RPATH is a boolean specifying whether to skip automatic
| |
| generation of an rpath allowing the target to run from the build tree.
| |
| This property is initialized by the value of the variable
| |
| CMAKE_SKIP_BUILD_RPATH if it is set when a target is created.
| |
| | |
| SOURCES
| |
| Source names specified for a target.
| |
| | |
| Read-only list of sources specified for a target. The names returned
| |
| are suitable for passing to the set_source_files_properties command.
| |
| | |
| SOVERSION
| |
| What version number is this target.
| |
| | |
| For shared libraries VERSION and SOVERSION can be used to specify the
| |
| build version and api version respectively. When building or
| |
| installing appropriate symlinks are created if the platform supports
| |
| symlinks and the linker supports so-names. If only one of both is
| |
| specified the missing is assumed to have the same version number.
| |
| SOVERSION is ignored if NO_SONAME property is set. For shared
| |
| libraries and executables on Windows the VERSION attribute is parsed
| |
| to extract a "major.minor" version number. These numbers are used as
| |
| the image version of the binary.
| |
| | |
| STATIC_LIBRARY_FLAGS
| |
| Extra flags to use when linking static libraries.
| |
| | |
| Extra flags to use when linking a static library.
| |
| | |
| STATIC_LIBRARY_FLAGS_<CONFIG>
| |
| Per-configuration flags for creating a static library.
| |
| | |
| This is the configuration-specific version of STATIC_LIBRARY_FLAGS.
| |
| | |
| SUFFIX
| |
| What comes after the target name.
| |
| | |
| A target property that can be set to override the suffix (such as
| |
| ".so" or ".exe") on the name of a library, module or executable.
| |
| | |
| TYPE
| |
| The type of the target.
| |
| | |
| This read-only property can be used to test the type of the given
| |
| target. It will be one of STATIC_LIBRARY, MODULE_LIBRARY,
| |
| SHARED_LIBRARY, EXECUTABLE or one of the internal target types.
| |
| | |
| VERSION
| |
| What version number is this target.
| |
| | |
| For shared libraries VERSION and SOVERSION can be used to specify the
| |
| build version and api version respectively. When building or
| |
| installing appropriate symlinks are created if the platform supports
| |
| symlinks and the linker supports so-names. If only one of both is
| |
| specified the missing is assumed to have the same version number. For
| |
| executables VERSION can be used to specify the build version. When
| |
| building or installing appropriate symlinks are created if the
| |
| platform supports symlinks. For shared libraries and executables on
| |
| Windows the VERSION attribute is parsed to extract a "major.minor"
| |
| version number. These numbers are used as the image version of the
| |
| binary.

| Adds one or more semicolon-delimited .NET references to a generated
| |
| Visual Studio project. For example, "System;System.Windows.Forms".
| |
| | |
| VS_GLOBAL_<variable>
| |
| Visual Studio project-specific global variable.
| |
| | |
| Tell the Visual Studio generator to set the global variable
| |
| '<variable>' to a given value in the generated Visual Studio project.
| |
| Ignored on other generators. Qt integration works better if
| |
| VS_GLOBAL_QtVersion is set to the version FindQt4.cmake found. For
| |
| example, "4.7.3"
| |
| | |
| VS_GLOBAL_KEYWORD
| |
| Visual Studio project keyword.
| |
| | |
| Sets the "keyword" attribute for a generated Visual Studio project.
| |
| Defaults to "Win32Proj". You may wish to override this value with
| |
| "ManagedCProj", for example, in a Visual Studio managed C++ unit test
| |
| project.
| |
| | |
| VS_GLOBAL_PROJECT_TYPES
| |
| Visual Studio project type(s).
| |
| | |
| Can be set to one or more UUIDs recognized by Visual Studio to
| |
| indicate the type of project. This value is copied verbatim into the
| |
| generated project file. Example for a managed C++ unit testing
| |
| project:
| |
| | |
| {3AC096D0-A1C2-E12C-1390-A8335801FDAB};{8BC9CEB8-8B4A-11D0-8D11-00A0C91BC942}
| |
| | |
| UUIDs are semicolon-delimited.
| |
| | |
| VS_KEYWORD
| |
| Visual Studio project keyword.
| |
| | |
| Can be set to change the visual studio keyword, for example Qt
| |
| integration works better if this is set to Qt4VSv1.0.
| |
| | |
| VS_SCC_AUXPATH
| |
| Visual Studio Source Code Control Aux Path.
| |
| | |
| Can be set to change the visual studio source code control auxpath
| |
| property.
| |
| | |
| VS_SCC_LOCALPATH
| |
| Visual Studio Source Code Control Local Path.
| |
| | |
| Can be set to change the visual studio source code control local path
| |
| property.
| |
| | |
| VS_SCC_PROJECTNAME
| |
| Visual Studio Source Code Control Project.
| |
| | |
| Can be set to change the visual studio source code control project
| |
| name property.
| |
| | |
| VS_SCC_PROVIDER
| |
| Visual Studio Source Code Control Provider.
| |
| | |
| Can be set to change the visual studio source code control provider
| |
| property.
| |
| | |
| VS_WINRT_EXTENSIONS
| |
| Visual Studio project C++/CX language extensions for Windows Runtime
| |
| | |
| Can be set to enable C++/CX language extensions.
| |
| | |
| VS_WINRT_REFERENCES
| |
| Visual Studio project Windows Runtime Metadata references
| |
| | |
| Adds one or more semicolon-delimited WinRT references to a generated
| |
| Visual Studio project. For example, "Windows;Windows.UI.Core".
| |
| | |
| WIN32_EXECUTABLE
| |
| Build an executable with a WinMain entry point on windows.
| |
| | |
| When this property is set to true the executable when linked on
| |
| Windows will be created with a WinMain() entry point instead of just
| |
| main(). This makes it a GUI executable instead of a console
| |
| application. See the CMAKE_MFC_FLAG variable documentation to
| |
| configure use of MFC for WinMain executables. This property is
| |
| initialized by the value of the variable CMAKE_WIN32_EXECUTABLE if it
| |
| is set when a target is created.
| |
| | |
| XCODE_ATTRIBUTE_<an-attribute>
| |
| Set Xcode target attributes directly.
| |
| | |
| Tell the Xcode generator to set '<an-attribute>' to a given value in
| |
| the generated Xcode project. Ignored on other generators.
| |
| | |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Properties on Tests
| |
| | |
| ATTACHED_FILES
| |
| Attach a list of files to a dashboard submission.
| |
| | |
| Set this property to a list of files that will be encoded and
| |
| submitted to the dashboard as an addition to the test result.
| |
| | |
| ATTACHED_FILES_ON_FAIL
| |
| Attach a list of files to a dashboard submission if the test fails.
| |
| | |
| Same as ATTACHED_FILES, but these files will only be included if the
| |
| test does not pass.
| |
| | |
| COST
| |
| Set this to a floating point value. Tests in a test set will be run
| |
| in descending order of cost.
| |
| | |
| This property describes the cost of a test. You can explicitly set
| |
| this value; tests with higher COST values will run first.
| |
| | |
| DEPENDS
| |
| Specifies that this test should only be run after the specified list
| |
| of tests.
| |
| | |
| Set this to a list of tests that must finish before this test is run.
| |
| | |
| ENVIRONMENT
| |
| Specify environment variables that should be defined for running a
| |
| test.
| |
| | |
| If set to a list of environment variables and values of the form
| |
| MYVAR=value those environment variables will be defined while running
| |
| the test. The environment is restored to its previous state after the
| |
| test is done.
| |
| | |
| FAIL_REGULAR_EXPRESSION
| |
| If the output matches this regular expression the test will fail.
| |
| | |
| If set, if the output matches one of specified regular expressions,
| |
| the test will fail.For example: PASS_REGULAR_EXPRESSION
| |
| "[^a-z]Error;ERROR;Failed"
| |
| | |
| LABELS
| |
| Specify a list of text labels associated with a test.
| |
| | |
| The list is reported in dashboard submissions.
| |
| | |
| MEASUREMENT
| |
| Specify a CDASH measurement and value to be reported for a test.
| |
| | |
| If set to a name then that name will be reported to CDASH as a named
| |
| measurement with a value of 1. You may also specify a value by
| |
| setting MEASUREMENT to "measurement=value".
| |
| | |
| PASS_REGULAR_EXPRESSION
| |
| The output must match this regular expression for the test to pass.
| |
| | |
| If set, the test output will be checked against the specified regular
| |
| expressions and at least one of the regular expressions has to match,
| |
| otherwise the test will fail.
| |
| | |
| PROCESSORS
| |
| How many process slots this test requires
| |
| | |
| Denotes the number of processors that this test will require. This is
| |
| typically used for MPI tests, and should be used in conjunction with
| |
| the ctest_test PARALLEL_LEVEL option.
| |
| | |
| REQUIRED_FILES
| |
| List of files required to run the test.
| |
| | |
| If set to a list of files, the test will not be run unless all of the
| |
| files exist.
| |
| | |
| RESOURCE_LOCK
| |
| Specify a list of resources that are locked by this test.
| |
| | |
| If multiple tests specify the same resource lock, they are guaranteed
| |
| not to run concurrently.
| |
| | |
| RUN_SERIAL
| |
| Do not run this test in parallel with any other test.
| |
| | |
| Use this option in conjunction with the ctest_test PARALLEL_LEVEL
| |
| option to specify that this test should not be run in parallel with
| |
| any other tests.
| |
| | |
| TIMEOUT
| |
| How many seconds to allow for this test.
| |
| | |
| This property if set will limit a test to not take more than the
| |
| specified number of seconds to run. If it exceeds that the test
| |
| process will be killed and ctest will move to the next test. This
| |
| setting takes precedence over CTEST_TESTING_TIMEOUT.
| |
| | |
| WILL_FAIL
| |
| If set to true, this will invert the pass/fail flag of the test.
| |
| | |
| This property can be used for tests that are expected to fail and
| |
| return a non zero return code.
| |
| | |
| WORKING_DIRECTORY
| |
| The directory from which the test executable will be called.
| |
| | |
| If this is not set it is called from the directory the test executable
| |
| is located in.
| |
| | |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Variables
| |
| | |
| CPACK_ERROR_ON_ABSOLUTE_INSTALL_DESTINATION
| |
| Ask CPack to error out as soon as a file with absolute INSTALL
| |
| DESTINATION is encountered.
| |
| | |
| The fatal error is emitted before the installation of the offending
| |
| file takes place. Some CPack generators, like NSIS,enforce this
| |
| internally. This variable triggers the definition
| |
| ofCMAKE_ERROR_ON_ABSOLUTE_INSTALL_DESTINATION when CPack runsVariables
| |
| common to all CPack generators
| |
| | |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Variables That Change Behavior
| |
| | |
| BUILD_SHARED_LIBS
| |
| Global flag to cause add_library to create shared libraries if on.
| |
| | |
| If present and true, this will cause all libraries to be built shared
| |
| unless the library was explicitly added as a static library. This
| |
| variable is often added to projects as an OPTION so that each user of
| |
| a project can decide if they want to build the project using shared or
| |
| static libraries.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_ABSOLUTE_DESTINATION_FILES
| |
| List of files which have been installed using an ABSOLUTE DESTINATION
| |
| path.
| |
| | |
| This variable is defined by CMake-generated cmake_install.cmake
| |
| scripts. It can be used (read-only) by program or script that source
| |
| those install scripts. This is used by some CPack generators (e.g.
| |
| RPM).
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_AUTOMOC_RELAXED_MODE
| |
| Switch between strict and relaxed automoc mode.
| |
| | |
| By default, automoc behaves exactly as described in the documentation
| |
| of the AUTOMOC target property. When set to TRUE, it accepts more
| |
| input and tries to find the correct input file for moc even if it
| |
| differs from the documented behaviour. In this mode it e.g. also
| |
| checks whether a header file is intended to be processed by moc when a
| |
| "foo.moc" file has been included.
| |
| | |
| Relaxed mode has to be enabled for KDE4 compatibility.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY
| |
| Version of cmake required to build project
| |
| | |
| From the point of view of backwards compatibility, this specifies what
| |
| version of CMake should be supported. By default this value is the
| |
| version number of CMake that you are running. You can set this to an
| |
| older version of CMake to support deprecated commands of CMake in
| |
| projects that were written to use older versions of CMake. This can
| |
| be set by the user or set at the beginning of a CMakeLists file.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE
| |
| Specifies the build type for make based generators.
| |
| | |
| This specifies what build type will be built in this tree. Possible
| |
| values are empty, Debug, Release, RelWithDebInfo and MinSizeRel. This
| |
| variable is only supported for make based generators. If this
| |
| variable is supported, then CMake will also provide initial values for
| |
| the variables with the name
| |
| CMAKE_C_FLAGS_[DEBUG|RELEASE|RELWITHDEBINFO|MINSIZEREL]. For example,
| |
| if CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE is Debug, then CMAKE_C_FLAGS_DEBUG will be added
| |
| to the CMAKE_C_FLAGS.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_COLOR_MAKEFILE
| |
| Enables color output when using the Makefile generator.
| |
| | |
| When enabled, the generated Makefiles will produce colored output.
| |
| Default is ON.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES
| |
| Specifies the available build types.
| |
| | |
| This specifies what build types will be available such as Debug,
| |
| Release, RelWithDebInfo etc. This has reasonable defaults on most
| |
| platforms. But can be extended to provide other build types. See
| |
| also CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_DEBUG_TARGET_PROPERTIES
| |
| Enables tracing output for target properties.
| |
| | |
| This variable can be populated with a list of properties to generate
| |
| debug output for when evaluating target properties. Currently it can
| |
| only be used when evaluating the INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES target property.
| |
| In that case, it outputs a backtrace for each include directory in the
| |
| build. Default is unset.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_DISABLE_FIND_PACKAGE_<PackageName>
| |
| Variable for disabling find_package() calls.
| |
| | |
| Every non-REQUIRED find_package() call in a project can be disabled by
| |
| setting the variable CMAKE_DISABLE_FIND_PACKAGE_<PackageName> to TRUE.
| |
| This can be used to build a project without an optional package,
| |
| although that package is installed.
| |
| | |
| This switch should be used during the initial CMake run. Otherwise if
| |
| the package has already been found in a previous CMake run, the
| |
| variables which have been stored in the cache will still be there. In
| |
| the case it is recommended to remove the cache variables for this
| |
| package from the cache using the cache editor or cmake -U
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_ERROR_ON_ABSOLUTE_INSTALL_DESTINATION
| |
| Ask cmake_install.cmake script to error out as soon as a file with
| |
| absolute INSTALL DESTINATION is encountered.
| |
| | |
| The fatal error is emitted before the installation of the offending
| |
| file takes place. This variable is used by CMake-generated
| |
| cmake_install.cmake scripts. If ones set this variable to ON while
| |
| running the script, it may get fatal error messages from the script.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_PREFIXES
| |
| Prefixes to prepend when looking for libraries.
| |
| | |
| This specifies what prefixes to add to library names when the
| |
| find_library command looks for libraries. On UNIX systems this is
| |
| typically lib, meaning that when trying to find the foo library it
| |
| will look for libfoo.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES
| |
| Suffixes to append when looking for libraries.
| |
| | |
| This specifies what suffixes to add to library names when the
| |
| find_library command looks for libraries. On Windows systems this is
| |
| typically .lib and .dll, meaning that when trying to find the foo
| |
| library it will look for foo.dll etc.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_WARN_NO_MODULE
| |
| Tell find_package to warn if called without an explicit mode.
| |
| | |
| If find_package is called without an explicit mode option (MODULE,
| |
| CONFIG or NO_MODULE) and no Find<pkg>.cmake module is in
| |
| CMAKE_MODULE_PATH then CMake implicitly assumes that the caller
| |
| intends to search for a package configuration file. If no package
| |
| configuration file is found then the wording of the failure message
| |
| must account for both the case that the package is really missing and
| |
| the case that the project has a bug and failed to provide the intended
| |
| Find module. If instead the caller specifies an explicit mode option
| |
| then the failure message can be more specific.
| |
| | |
| Set CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_WARN_NO_MODULE to TRUE to tell find_package to
| |
| warn when it implicitly assumes Config mode. This helps developers
| |
| enforce use of an explicit mode in all calls to find_package within a
| |
| project.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_IGNORE_PATH
| |
| Path to be ignored by FIND_XXX() commands.
| |
| | |
| Specifies directories to be ignored by searches in FIND_XXX()
| |
| commands. This is useful in cross-compiled environments where some
| |
| system directories contain incompatible but possibly linkable
| |
| libraries. For example, on cross-compiled cluster environments, this
| |
| allows a user to ignore directories containing libraries meant for the
| |
| front-end machine that modules like FindX11 (and others) would
| |
| normally search. By default this is empty; it is intended to be set
| |
| by the project. Note that CMAKE_IGNORE_PATH takes a list of directory
| |
| names, NOT a list of prefixes. If you want to ignore paths under
| |
| prefixes (bin, include, lib, etc.), you'll need to specify them
| |
| explicitly. See also CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH, CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH,
| |
| CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH, CMAKE_PROGRAM_PATH.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH
| |
| Path used for searching by FIND_FILE() and FIND_PATH().
| |
| | |
| Specifies a path which will be used both by FIND_FILE() and
| |
| FIND_PATH(). Both commands will check each of the contained
| |
| directories for the existence of the file which is currently searched.
| |
| By default it is empty, it is intended to be set by the project. See
| |
| also CMAKE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_PATH, CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_INSTALL_DEFAULT_COMPONENT_NAME
| |
| Default component used in install() commands.
| |
| | |
| If an install() command is used without the COMPONENT argument, these
| |
| files will be grouped into a default component. The name of this
| |
| default install component will be taken from this variable. It
| |
| defaults to "Unspecified".
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
| |
| Install directory used by install.
| |
| | |
| If "make install" is invoked or INSTALL is built, this directory is
| |
| pre-pended onto all install directories. This variable defaults to
| |
| /usr/local on UNIX and c:/Program Files on Windows.
| |
| | |
| On UNIX one can use the DESTDIR mechanism in order to relocate the
| |
| whole installation. DESTDIR means DESTination DIRectory. It is
| |
| commonly used by makefile users in order to install software at
| |
| non-default location. It is usually invoked like this:
| |
| | |
| make DESTDIR=/home/john install
| |
| | |
| which will install the concerned software using the installation
| |
| prefix, e.g. "/usr/local" pre-pended with the DESTDIR value which
| |
| finally gives "/home/john/usr/local".
| |
| | |
| WARNING: DESTDIR may not be used on Windows because installation
| |
| prefix usually contains a drive letter like in "C:/Program Files"
| |
| which cannot be pre-pended with some other prefix.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH
| |
| Path used for searching by FIND_LIBRARY().
| |
| | |
| Specifies a path which will be used by FIND_LIBRARY(). FIND_LIBRARY()
| |
| will check each of the contained directories for the existence of the
| |
| library which is currently searched. By default it is empty, it is
| |
| intended to be set by the project. See also
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_PATH, CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_MFC_FLAG
| |
| Tell cmake to use MFC for an executable or dll.
| |
| | |
| This can be set in a CMakeLists.txt file and will enable MFC in the
| |
| application. It should be set to 1 for the static MFC library, and 2
| |
| for the shared MFC library. This is used in Visual Studio 6 and 7
| |
| project files. The CMakeSetup dialog used MFC and the CMakeLists.txt
| |
| looks like this:
| |
| | |
| add_definitions(-D_AFXDLL)
| |
| set(CMAKE_MFC_FLAG 2)
| |
| add_executable(CMakeSetup WIN32 ${SRCS})
| |
| | |
| | |
| CMAKE_MODULE_PATH
| |
| List of directories to search for CMake modules.
| |
| | |
| Commands like include() and find_package() search for files in
| |
| directories listed by this variable before checking the default
| |
| modules that come with CMake.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_NOT_USING_CONFIG_FLAGS
| |
| Skip _BUILD_TYPE flags if true.
| |
| | |
| This is an internal flag used by the generators in CMake to tell CMake
| |
| to skip the _BUILD_TYPE flags.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_POLICY_DEFAULT_CMP<NNNN>
| |
| Default for CMake Policy CMP<NNNN> when it is otherwise left unset.
| |
| | |
| Commands cmake_minimum_required(VERSION) and cmake_policy(VERSION) by
| |
| default leave policies introduced after the given version unset. Set
| |
| CMAKE_POLICY_DEFAULT_CMP<NNNN> to OLD or NEW to specify the default
| |
| for policy CMP<NNNN>, where <NNNN> is the policy number.
| |
| | |
| This variable should not be set by a project in CMake code; use
| |
| cmake_policy(SET) instead. Users running CMake may set this variable
| |
| in the cache (e.g. -DCMAKE_POLICY_DEFAULT_CMP<NNNN>=<OLD|NEW>) to set
| |
| a policy not otherwise set by the project. Set to OLD to quiet a
| |
| policy warning while using old behavior or to NEW to try building the
| |
| project with new behavior.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
| |
| Path used for searching by FIND_XXX(), with appropriate suffixes
| |
| added.
| |
| | |
| Specifies a path which will be used by the FIND_XXX() commands. It
| |
| contains the "base" directories, the FIND_XXX() commands append
| |
| appropriate subdirectories to the base directories. So FIND_PROGRAM()
| |
| adds /bin to each of the directories in the path, FIND_LIBRARY()
| |
| appends /lib to each of the directories, and FIND_PATH() and
| |
| FIND_FILE() append /include . By default it is empty, it is intended
| |
| to be set by the project. See also CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH,
| |
| CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH, CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH, CMAKE_PROGRAM_PATH.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_PROGRAM_PATH
| |
| Path used for searching by FIND_PROGRAM().
| |
| | |
| Specifies a path which will be used by FIND_PROGRAM(). FIND_PROGRAM()
| |
| will check each of the contained directories for the existence of the
| |
| program which is currently searched. By default it is empty, it is
| |
| intended to be set by the project. See also
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROGRAM_PATH, CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_ALL_DEPENDENCY
| |
| Don't make the install target depend on the all target.
| |
| | |
| By default, the "install" target depends on the "all" target. This
| |
| has the effect, that when "make install" is invoked or INSTALL is
| |
| built, first the "all" target is built, then the installation starts.
| |
| If CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_ALL_DEPENDENCY is set to TRUE, this dependency
| |
| is not created, so the installation process will start immediately,
| |
| independent from whether the project has been completely built or not.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_IGNORE_PATH
| |
| Path to be ignored by FIND_XXX() commands.
| |
| | |
| Specifies directories to be ignored by searches in FIND_XXX()
| |
| commands. This is useful in cross-compiled environments where some
| |
| system directories contain incompatible but possibly linkable
| |
| libraries. For example, on cross-compiled cluster environments, this
| |
| allows a user to ignore directories containing libraries meant for the
| |
| front-end machine that modules like FindX11 (and others) would
| |
| normally search. By default this contains a list of directories
| |
| containing incompatible binaries for the host system. See also
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH, CMAKE_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_PATH,
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_PATH, and CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROGRAM_PATH.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_PATH
| |
| Path used for searching by FIND_FILE() and FIND_PATH().
| |
| | |
| Specifies a path which will be used both by FIND_FILE() and
| |
| FIND_PATH(). Both commands will check each of the contained
| |
| directories for the existence of the file which is currently searched.
| |
| By default it contains the standard directories for the current
| |
| system. It is NOT intended to be modified by the project, use
| |
| CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH for this. See also CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_PATH
| |
| Path used for searching by FIND_LIBRARY().
| |
| | |
| Specifies a path which will be used by FIND_LIBRARY(). FIND_LIBRARY()
| |
| will check each of the contained directories for the existence of the
| |
| library which is currently searched. By default it contains the
| |
| standard directories for the current system. It is NOT intended to be
| |
| modified by the project, use CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH for this. See also
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH
| |
| Path used for searching by FIND_XXX(), with appropriate suffixes
| |
| added.
| |
| | |
| Specifies a path which will be used by the FIND_XXX() commands. It
| |
| contains the "base" directories, the FIND_XXX() commands append
| |
| appropriate subdirectories to the base directories. So FIND_PROGRAM()
| |
| adds /bin to each of the directories in the path, FIND_LIBRARY()
| |
| appends /lib to each of the directories, and FIND_PATH() and
| |
| FIND_FILE() append /include . By default this contains the standard
| |
| directories for the current system. It is NOT intended to be modified
| |
| by the project, use CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH for this. See also
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_PATH, CMAKE_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_PATH,
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROGRAM_PATH, and CMAKE_SYSTEM_IGNORE_PATH.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROGRAM_PATH
| |
| Path used for searching by FIND_PROGRAM().
| |
| | |
| Specifies a path which will be used by FIND_PROGRAM(). FIND_PROGRAM()
| |
| will check each of the contained directories for the existence of the
| |
| program which is currently searched. By default it contains the
| |
| standard directories for the current system. It is NOT intended to be
| |
| modified by the project, use CMAKE_PROGRAM_PATH for this. See also
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH.

| CMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE
| |
| Specify a CMake file that overrides platform information.
| |
| | |
| CMake loads the specified file while enabling support for each
| |
| language from either the project() or enable_language() commands. It
| |
| is loaded after CMake's builtin compiler and platform information
| |
| modules have been loaded but before the information is used. The file
| |
| may set platform information variables to override CMake's defaults.
| |
| | |
| This feature is intended for use only in overriding information
| |
| variables that must be set before CMake builds its first test project
| |
| to check that the compiler for a language works. It should not be
| |
| used to load a file in cases that a normal include() will work. Use
| |
| it only as a last resort for behavior that cannot be achieved any
| |
| other way. For example, one may set CMAKE_C_FLAGS_INIT to change the
| |
| default value used to initialize CMAKE_C_FLAGS before it is cached.
| |
| The override file should NOT be used to set anything that could be set
| |
| after languages are enabled, such as variables like
| |
| CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY that affect the placement of binaries.
| |
| Information set in the file will be used for try_compile and try_run
| |
| builds too.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_WARN_ON_ABSOLUTE_INSTALL_DESTINATION
| |
| Ask cmake_install.cmake script to warn each time a file with absolute
| |
| INSTALL DESTINATION is encountered.
| |
| | |
| This variable is used by CMake-generated cmake_install.cmake scripts.
| |
| If ones set this variable to ON while running the script, it may get
| |
| warning messages from the script.
| |

| Set to true when using the Visual Studio 2005 compiler from Microsoft.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_HOST_APPLE
| |
| True for Apple OSXoperating systems.
| |
| | |
| Set to true when the host system is Apple OSX.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM
| |
| Name of system cmake is being run on.
| |
| | |
| The same as CMAKE_SYSTEM but for the host system instead of the target
| |
| system when cross compiling.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_NAME
| |
| Name of the OS CMake is running on.
| |
| | |
| The same as CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME but for the host system instead of the
| |
| target system when cross compiling.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR
| |
| The name of the CPU CMake is running on.
| |
| | |
| The same as CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR but for the host system instead of
| |
| the target system when cross compiling.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_VERSION
| |
| OS version CMake is running on.
| |
| | |
| The same as CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION but for the host system instead of
| |
| the target system when cross compiling.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_HOST_UNIX
| |
| True for UNIX and UNIX like operating systems.
| |
| | |
| Set to true when the host system is UNIX or UNIX like (i.e. APPLE and
| |
| CYGWIN).
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_HOST_WIN32
| |
| True on windows systems, including win64.
| |
| | |
| Set to true when the host system is Windows and on cygwin.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE
| |
| Target architecture library directory name, if detected.
| |
| | |
| This is the value of CMAKE_<lang>_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE as detected for
| |
| one of the enabled languages.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE_REGEX
| |
| Regex matching possible target architecture library directory names.
| |
| | |
| This is used to detect CMAKE_<lang>_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE from the
| |
| implicit linker search path by matching the <arch> name.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_OBJECT_PATH_MAX
| |
| Maximum object file full-path length allowed by native build tools.
| |
| | |
| CMake computes for every source file an object file name that is
| |
| unique to the source file and deterministic with respect to the full
| |
| path to the source file. This allows multiple source files in a
| |
| target to share the same name if they lie in different directories
| |
| without rebuilding when one is added or removed. However, it can
| |
| produce long full paths in a few cases, so CMake shortens the path
| |
| using a hashing scheme when the full path to an object file exceeds a
| |
| limit. CMake has a built-in limit for each platform that is
| |
| sufficient for common tools, but some native tools may have a lower
| |
| limit. This variable may be set to specify the limit explicitly. The
| |
| value must be an integer no less than 128.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM
| |
| Name of system cmake is compiling for.
| |
| | |
| This variable is the composite of CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME and
| |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION, like this
| |
| ${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME}-${CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION}. If CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION
| |
| is not set, then CMAKE_SYSTEM is the same as CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME
| |
| Name of the OS CMake is building for.
| |
| | |
| This is the name of the operating system on which CMake is targeting.
| |
| On systems that have the uname command, this variable is set to the
| |
| output of uname -s. Linux, Windows, and Darwin for Mac OSX are the
| |
| values found on the big three operating systems.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR
| |
| The name of the CPU CMake is building for.
| |
| | |
| On systems that support uname, this variable is set to the output of
| |
| uname -p, on windows it is set to the value of the environment
| |
| variable PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION
| |
| OS version CMake is building for.
| |
| | |
| A numeric version string for the system, on systems that support
| |

| in "Xcode.app/Contents/version.plist" (such as "3.1.2").
| |
| | |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Variables common to all CPack generators
| |
| | |
| CPACK_ABSOLUTE_DESTINATION_FILES
| |
| List of files which have been installed using an ABSOLUTE DESTINATION
| |
| path.
| |
| | |
| This variable is a Read-Only variable which is set internally by CPack
| |
| during installation and before packaging using
| |
| CMAKE_ABSOLUTE_DESTINATION_FILES defined in cmake_install.cmake
| |
| scripts. The value can be used within CPack project configuration
| |
| file and/or CPack<GEN>.cmake file of <GEN> generator.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_BINARY_<GENNAME>
| |
| CPack generated options for binary generators
| |
| | |
| The CPack.cmake module generates (when CPACK_GENERATOR is not set) a
| |
| set of CMake options (see CMake option command) which may then be used
| |
| to select the CPack generator(s) to be used when launching the package
| |
| target.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_CMAKE_GENERATOR
| |
| What CMake generator should be used if the project is CMake project.
| |
| | |
| Defaults to the value of CMAKE_GENERATOR few users will want to change
| |
| this setting.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_COMPONENT_INCLUDE_TOPLEVEL_DIRECTORY
| |
| Boolean toggle to include/exclude top level directory (component
| |
| case).
| |
| | |
| Similar usage as CPACK_INCLUDE_TOPLEVEL_DIRECTORY but for the
| |
| component case. See CPACK_INCLUDE_TOPLEVEL_DIRECTORY documentation
| |
| for the detail.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_CREATE_DESKTOP_LINKS
| |
| List of desktop links to create
| |
| | |
| CPACK_GENERATOR
| |
| List of CPack generators to use
| |
| | |
| If not specified, CPack will create a set of options
| |
| CPACK_BINARY_<GENNAME> (e.g., CPACK_BINARY_NSIS) allowing the user to
| |
| enable/disable individual generators. This variable may be used on
| |
| the command line as well as in:
| |
| | |
| cpack -D CPACK_GENERATOR="ZIP;TGZ" /path/to/build/tree
| |
| | |
| | |
| CPACK_INCLUDE_TOPLEVEL_DIRECTORY
| |
| Boolean toggle to include/exclude top level directory.
| |
| | |
| When preparing a package CPack installs the item under the so-called
| |
| top level directory. The purpose of is to include (set to 1 or ON or
| |
| TRUE) the top level directory in the package or not (set to 0 or OFF
| |
| or FALSE).
| |
| | |
| Each CPack generator as a built-in default value for this variable.
| |
| E.g. Archive generators (ZIP, TGZ, ...) includes the top level
| |
| whereas RPM or DEB don't. The user may override the default value by
| |
| setting this variable.
| |
| | |
| There is a similar variable CPACK_COMPONENT_INCLUDE_TOPLEVEL_DIRECTORY
| |
| which may be used to override the behavior for the component packaging
| |
| case which may have different default value for historical (now
| |
| backward compatibility) reason.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_INSTALLED_DIRECTORIES
| |
| Extra directories to install
| |
| | |
| CPACK_INSTALL_CMAKE_PROJECTS
| |
| List of four values that specify what project to install.
| |
| | |
| The four values are: Build directory, Project Name, Project Component,
| |
| Directory. If omitted, CPack will build an installer that installers
| |
| everything.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_INSTALL_COMMANDS
| |
| Extra commands to install components
| |
| | |
| CPACK_INSTALL_SCRIPT
| |
| Extra CMake script provided by the user.
| |
| | |
| If set this CMake script will be executed by CPack during its local
| |
| [CPack-private] installation which is done right before packaging the
| |
| files. The script is not called by e.g.: make install.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_MONOLITHIC_INSTALL
| |
| Disables the component-based installation mechanism.
| |
| | |
| When set the component specification is ignored and all installed
| |
| items are put in a single "MONOLITHIC" package. Some CPack generators
| |
| do monolithic packaging by default and may be asked to do component
| |
| packaging by setting CPACK_<GENNAME>_COMPONENT_INSTALL to 1/TRUE.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_OUTPUT_CONFIG_FILE
| |
| The name of the CPack binary configuration file.
| |
| | |
| This file is the CPack configuration generated by the CPack module for
| |
| binary installers. Defaults to CPackConfig.cmake.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION_FILE
| |
| A text file used to describe the project.
| |
| | |
| Used, for example, the introduction screen of a CPack-generated
| |
| Windows installer to describe the project.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION_SUMMARY
| |
| Short description of the project (only a few words).
| |
| | |
| CPACK_PACKAGE_DIRECTORY
| |
| The directory in which CPack is doing its packaging.
| |
| | |
| If it is not set then this will default (internally) to the build dir.
| |
| This variable may be defined in CPack config file or from the cpack
| |
| command line option "-B". If set the command line option override the
| |
| value found in the config file.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_PACKAGE_EXECUTABLES
| |
| Lists each of the executables and associated text label to be used to
| |
| create Start Menu shortcuts.
| |
| | |
| For example, setting this to the list ccmake;CMake will create a
| |
| shortcut named "CMake" that will execute the installed executable
| |
| ccmake. Not all CPack generators use it (at least NSIS and OSXX11
| |
| do).
| |
| | |
| CPACK_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME
| |
| The name of the package file to generate, not including the extension.
| |
| | |
| For example, cmake-2.6.1-Linux-i686. The default value is
| |
| | |
| ${CPACK_PACKAGE_NAME}-${CPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION}-${CPACK_SYSTEM_NAME}.
| |
| | |
| | |
| CPACK_PACKAGE_ICON
| |
| A branding image that will be displayed inside the installer (used by
| |
| GUI installers).
| |
| | |
| CPACK_PACKAGE_INSTALL_DIRECTORY
| |
| Installation directory on the target system.
| |
| | |
| This may be used by some CPack generators like NSIS to create an
| |
| installation directory e.g., "CMake 2.5" below the installation
| |
| prefix. All installed element will be put inside this directory.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_PACKAGE_INSTALL_REGISTRY_KEY
| |
| Registry key used when installing this project.
| |
| | |
| This is only used by installer for Windows.
| |
| | |
| | |
| CPACK_PACKAGE_NAME
| |
| The name of the package (or application)
| |
| | |
| If not specified, defaults to the project name.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_PACKAGE_VENDOR
| |
| The name of the package vendor
| |
| | |
| (e.g., "Kitware").
| |
| | |
| CPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION
| |
| Package full version, used internally
| |
| | |
| By default, this is built from CPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION_MAJOR,
| |
| CPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION_MINOR, and CPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION_PATCH.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION_MAJOR
| |
| Package major Version
| |
| | |
| CPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION_MINOR
| |
| Package minor Version
| |
| | |
| CPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION_PATCH
| |
| Package patch Version
| |
| | |
| CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX
| |
| The prefix used in the built package.
| |
| | |
| Each CPack generator has a default value (like /usr). This default
| |
| value may be overwritten from the CMakeLists.txt or the cpack command
| |
| line by setting an alternative value.
| |
| | |
| e.g. set(CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX "/opt")
| |
| | |
| This is not the same purpose as CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX which is used
| |
| when installing from the build tree without building a package.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_PROJECT_CONFIG_FILE
| |
| CPack-time project CPack configuration file.
| |
| | |
| This file included at cpack time, once per generator after CPack has
| |
| set CPACK_GENERATOR to the actual generator being used. It allows
| |
| per-generator setting of CPACK_* variables at cpack time.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_LICENSE
| |
| License to be embedded in the installer
| |
| | |
| It will typically be displayed to the user by the produced installer
| |
| (often with an explicit "Accept" button, for graphical installers)
| |
| prior to installation. This license file is NOT added to installed
| |
| file but is used by some CPack generators like NSIS. If you want to
| |
| install a license file (may be the same as this one) along with your
| |
| project you must add an appropriate CMake INSTALL command in your
| |
| CMakeLists.txt.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_README
| |
| ReadMe file to be embedded in the installer
| |
| | |
| It typically describes in some detail the purpose of the project
| |
| during the installation. Not all CPack generators uses this file.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_WELCOME
| |
| Welcome file to be embedded in the installer.
| |
| | |
| It welcomes users to this installer. Typically used in the graphical
| |
| installers on Windows and Mac OS X.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_SET_DESTDIR
| |
| Boolean toggle to make CPack use DESTDIR mechanism when packaging.
| |
| | |
| DESTDIR means DESTination DIRectory. It is commonly used by makefile
| |
| users in order to install software at non-default location. It is a
| |
| basic relocation mechanism that should not be used on Windows (see
| |
| CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX documentation). It is usually invoked like this:
| |
| | |
| make DESTDIR=/home/john install
| |
| | |
| which will install the concerned software using the installation
| |
| prefix, e.g. "/usr/local" pre-pended with the DESTDIR value which
| |
| finally gives "/home/john/usr/local". When preparing a package, CPack
| |
| first installs the items to be packaged in a local (to the build tree)
| |
| directory by using the same DESTDIR mechanism. Nevertheless, if
| |
| CPACK_SET_DESTDIR is set then CPack will set DESTDIR before doing the
| |
| local install. The most noticeable difference is that without
| |
| CPACK_SET_DESTDIR, CPack uses CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX as a
| |
| prefix whereas with CPACK_SET_DESTDIR set, CPack will use
| |
| CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX as a prefix.
| |
| | |
| Manually setting CPACK_SET_DESTDIR may help (or simply be necessary)
| |
| if some install rules uses absolute DESTINATION (see CMake INSTALL
| |
| command). However, starting with CPack/CMake 2.8.3 RPM and DEB
| |
| installers tries to handle DESTDIR automatically so that it is seldom
| |
| necessary for the user to set it.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_SOURCE_GENERATOR
| |
| List of generators used for the source packages.
| |
| | |
| As with CPACK_GENERATOR, if this is not specified then CPack will
| |
| create a set of options (e.g., CPACK_SOURCE_ZIP) allowing users to
| |
| select which packages will be generated.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_SOURCE_IGNORE_FILES
| |
| Pattern of files in the source tree that won't be packaged when
| |
| building a source package.
| |
| | |
| This is a list of regular expression patterns (that must be properly
| |
| escaped), e.g., /CVS/;/\\.svn/;\\.swp$;\\.#;/#;.*~;cscope.*
| |
| | |
| CPACK_SOURCE_OUTPUT_CONFIG_FILE
| |
| The name of the CPack source configuration file.
| |
| | |
| This file is the CPack configuration generated by the CPack module for
| |
| source installers. Defaults to CPackSourceConfig.cmake.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_SOURCE_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME
| |
| The name of the source package
| |
| | |
| For example cmake-2.6.1.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_SOURCE_STRIP_FILES
| |
| List of files in the source tree that will be stripped.
| |
| | |
| Starting with CMake 2.6.0 CPACK_SOURCE_STRIP_FILES will be a boolean
| |
| variable which enables stripping of all files (a list of files
| |
| evaluates to TRUE in CMake, so this change is compatible).
| |
| | |
| CPACK_STRIP_FILES
| |
| List of files to be stripped
| |
| | |
| Starting with CMake 2.6.0 CPACK_STRIP_FILES will be a boolean variable
| |
| which enables stripping of all files (a list of files evaluates to
| |
| TRUE in CMake, so this change is compatible).
| |
| | |
| CPACK_SYSTEM_NAME
| |
| System name, defaults to the value of ${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME}.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_TOPLEVEL_TAG
| |
| Directory for the installed files
| |
| | |
| CPACK_WARN_ON_ABSOLUTE_INSTALL_DESTINATION
| |
| Ask CPack to warn each time a file with absolute INSTALL DESTINATION
| |
| is encountered.
| |
| | |
| This variable triggers the definition of
| |
| CMAKE_WARN_ON_ABSOLUTE_INSTALL_DESTINATION when CPack runs
| |
| cmake_install.cmake scripts.
| |
| | |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Variables concerning CPack Components
| |
| | |
| CPACK_<GENNAME>_COMPONENT_INSTALL
| |
| Enable/Disable component install for CPack generator <GENNAME>.
| |
| | |
| Each CPack Generator (RPM, DEB, ARCHIVE, NSIS, DMG, etc...) has a
| |
| legacy default behavior. e.g. RPM builds monolithic whereas NSIS
| |
| builds component. One can change the default behavior by setting this
| |
| variable to 0/1 or OFF/ON.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_COMPONENTS_ALL
| |
| The list of component to install
| |
| | |
| The default value of this variable is computed by CPack and contains
| |
| all components defined by the project. The user may set it to only
| |
| include the specified components.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_COMPONENTS_GROUPING
| |
| Specify how components are grouped for multi-package component-aware
| |
| CPack generators.
| |
| | |
| Some generators like RPM or ARCHIVE family (TGZ, ZIP, ...) generates
| |
| several packages files when asked for component packaging. They group
| |
| the component differently depending on the value of this variable:
| |
| | |
| - ONE_PER_GROUP (default): creates one package file per component group
| |
| - ALL_COMPONENTS_IN_ONE : creates a single package with all (requested) component
| |
| - IGNORE : creates one package per component, i.e. IGNORE component group
| |
| | |
| One can specify different grouping for different CPack generator by
| |
| using a CPACK_PROJECT_CONFIG_FILE.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_COMPONENT_<compName>_DEPENDS
| |
| The dependencies (list of components) on which this component depends.
| |
| | |
| CPACK_COMPONENT_<compName>_DESCRIPTION
| |
| The description of a component
| |
| | |
| CPACK_COMPONENT_<compName>_DISPLAY_NAME
| |
| The name to be displayed for a component
| |
| | |
| CPACK_COMPONENT_<compName>_GROUP
| |
| The group of a component
| |
| | |
| CPACK_COMPONENT_<compName>_REQUIRED
| |
| True is this component is required
| |
| | |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Variables for Languages
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_<LANG>_ARCHIVE_APPEND
| |
| Rule variable to append to a static archive.

| languages.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILE_OBJECT
| |
| Rule variable to compile a single object file.
| |
| | |

| |
| object file for for the language <LANG>.
| |
| | |

| |
| | |
| CMAKE_<LANG>_IGNORE_EXTENSIONS
| |
| File extensions that should be ignored by the build.
| |
| | |
| This is a list of file extensions that may be part of a project for a
| |
| given language but are not compiled.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES
| |
| Directories implicitly searched by the compiler for header files.
| |
| | |
| CMake does not explicitly specify these directories on compiler
| |
| command lines for language <LANG>. This prevents system include
| |
| directories from being treated as user include directories on some
| |
| compilers.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_DIRECTORIES
| |
| Implicit linker search path detected for language <LANG>.
| |
| | |
| Compilers typically pass directories containing language runtime
| |
| libraries and default library search paths when they invoke a linker.
| |
| These paths are implicit linker search directories for the compiler's
| |
| language. CMake automatically detects these directories for each
| |
| language and reports the results in this variable.
| |
| | |
| When a library in one of these directories is given by full path to
| |
| target_link_libraries() CMake will generate the -l<name> form on link
| |
| lines to ensure the linker searches its implicit directories for the
| |
| library. Note that some toolchains read implicit directories from an
| |
| environment variable such as LIBRARY_PATH so keep its value consistent
| |
| when operating in a given build tree.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_FRAMEWORK_DIRECTORIES
| |
| Implicit linker framework search path detected for language <LANG>.
| |
| | |
| These paths are implicit linker framework search directories for the
| |
| compiler's language. CMake automatically detects these directories
| |
| for each language and reports the results in this variable.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_LIBRARIES
| |
| Implicit link libraries and flags detected for language <LANG>.
| |
| | |
| Compilers typically pass language runtime library names and other
| |
| flags when they invoke a linker. These flags are implicit link
| |
| options for the compiler's language. CMake automatically detects
| |
| these libraries and flags for each language and reports the results in
| |
| this variable.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_<LANG>_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE
| |
| Target architecture library directory name detected for <lang>.
| |
| | |
| If the <lang> compiler passes to the linker an architecture-specific
| |
| system library search directory such as <prefix>/lib/<arch> this
| |
| variable contains the <arch> name if/as detected by CMake.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_<LANG>_LINKER_PREFERENCE
| |
| Preference value for linker language selection.
| |
| | |
| The "linker language" for executable, shared library, and module
| |
| targets is the language whose compiler will invoke the linker. The
| |
| LINKER_LANGUAGE target property sets the language explicitly.
| |
| Otherwise, the linker language is that whose linker preference value
| |
| is highest among languages compiled and linked into the target. See
| |
| also the CMAKE_<LANG>_LINKER_PREFERENCE_PROPAGATES variable.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_<LANG>_LINKER_PREFERENCE_PROPAGATES
| |
| True if CMAKE_<LANG>_LINKER_PREFERENCE propagates across targets.
| |
| | |
| This is used when CMake selects a linker language for a target.
| |
| Languages compiled directly into the target are always considered. A
| |
| language compiled into static libraries linked by the target is
| |
| considered if this variable is true.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_<LANG>_LINK_EXECUTABLE
| |
| Rule variable to link and executable.
| |
| | |
| Rule variable to link and executable for the given language.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_<LANG>_OUTPUT_EXTENSION
| |
| Extension for the output of a compile for a single file.
| |
| | |
| This is the extension for an object file for the given <LANG>. For
| |
| example .obj for C on Windows.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_<LANG>_PLATFORM_ID
| |
| An internal variable subject to change.
| |
| | |
| This is used in determining the platform and is subject to change.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_<LANG>_SIZEOF_DATA_PTR
| |
| Size of pointer-to-data types for language <LANG>.
| |
| | |
| This holds the size (in bytes) of pointer-to-data types in the target
| |
| platform ABI. It is defined for languages C and CXX (C++).
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_<LANG>_SOURCE_FILE_EXTENSIONS
| |
| Extensions of source files for the given language.
| |
| | |
| This is the list of extensions for a given languages source files.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_COMPILER_IS_GNU<LANG>
| |
| True if the compiler is GNU.
| |
| | |
| If the selected <LANG> compiler is the GNU compiler then this is TRUE,
| |
| if not it is FALSE. Unlike the other per-language variables, this
| |
| uses the GNU syntax for identifying languages instead of the CMake
| |
| syntax. Recognized values of the <LANG> suffix are:
| |
| | |
| CC = C compiler
| |
| CXX = C++ compiler
| |
| G77 = Fortran compiler
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_Fortran_MODDIR_DEFAULT
| |
| Fortran default module output directory.
| |
| | |
| Most Fortran compilers write .mod files to the current working
| |
| directory. For those that do not, this is set to "." and used when
| |
| the Fortran_MODULE_DIRECTORY target property is not set.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_Fortran_MODDIR_FLAG
| |
| Fortran flag for module output directory.
| |
| | |
| This stores the flag needed to pass the value of the
| |
| Fortran_MODULE_DIRECTORY target property to the compiler.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_Fortran_MODOUT_FLAG
| |
| Fortran flag to enable module output.
| |
| | |
| Most Fortran compilers write .mod files out by default. For others,
| |
| this stores the flag needed to enable module output.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_INTERNAL_PLATFORM_ABI
| |
| An internal variable subject to change.
| |
| | |
| This is used in determining the compiler ABI and is subject to change.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE_<LANG>
| |
| Specify a CMake file that overrides platform information for <LANG>.
| |
| | |
| This is a language-specific version of CMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE
| |
| loaded only when enabling language <LANG>.

| | |
| CPACK_OSX_PACKAGE_VERSION
| |
| The version of Mac OS X that the resulting PackageMaker archive should
| |
| be compatible with.
| |
| | |
| Different versions of Mac OS X support different features. For

| example, CPack can only build component-based installers for Mac OS X
| |
| 10.4 or newer, and can only build installers that download component
| |
| son-the-fly for Mac OS X 10.5 or newer. If left blank, this value
| |
| will be set to the minimum version of Mac OS X that supports the
| |
| requested features. Set this variable to some value (e.g., 10.4) only
| |
| if you want to guarantee that your installer will work on that version
| |
| of Mac OS X, and don't mind missing extra features available in the
| |
| installer shipping with later versions of Mac OS X.

| the list of files (and directories) the user specified files of
| |
| the CPACK_RPM_<COMPONENT>_USER_FILELIST list will be removed from the generated list.
| |
| | |
| | |
| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Variables specific to CPack WiX generator
| |
| | |
| CPACK_WIX_LICENSE_RTF
| |
| RTF License File
| |
| | |
| If CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_LICENSE has an .rtf extension it is used as-is.
| |
| | |
| If CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_LICENSE has an .txt extension it is implicitly
| |
| converted to RTF by the WiX Generator.
| |
| | |
| With CPACK_WIX_LICENSE_RTF you can override the license file used by
| |
| the WiX Generator in case CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_LICENSE is in an
| |
| unsupported format or the .txt -> .rtf conversion does not work as
| |
| expected.
| |
| | |
| | |
| CPACK_WIX_PRODUCT_GUID
| |
| Product GUID (Product/@Id)
| |
| | |
| Will be automatically generated unless explicitly provided.

| |
| | |
| | |
| CPACK_WIX_UPGRADE_GUID
| |
| Upgrade GUID (Product/@UpgradeCode)
| |
| | |
| Will be automatically generated unless explicitly provided.
| |
| | |
| It should be explicitly set to a constant generated gloabally unique
| |
| identifier (GUID) to allow your installers to replace existing
| |
| installations that use the same GUID.
| |
| | |
| You may for example explicitly set this variable in your
| |
| CMakeLists.txt to the value that has been generated per default. You
| |
| should not use GUIDs that you did not generate yourself or which may
| |
| belong to other projects.
| |
| | |
| A GUID shall have the following fixed length syntax:
| |
| XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX
| |
| | |
| (each X represents an uppercase hexadecimal digit)

| |
| information.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_BUILD_WITH_INSTALL_RPATH
| |
| Use the install path for the RPATH
| |
| | |
| Normally CMake uses the build tree for the RPATH when building
| |
| executables etc on systems that use RPATH. When the software is
| |
| installed the executables etc are relinked by CMake to have the
| |
| install RPATH. If this variable is set to true then the software is
| |
| always built with the install path for the RPATH and does not need to
| |
| be relinked when installed.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_DEBUG_POSTFIX
| |
| See variable CMAKE_<CONFIG>_POSTFIX.

| |
| information.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_GNUtoMS
| |
| Convert GNU import libraries (.dll.a) to MS format (.lib).
| |
| | |
| This variable is used to initialize the GNUtoMS property on targets
| |
| when they are created. See that target property for additional
| |
| information.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_INCLUDE_CURRENT_DIR
| |
| Automatically add the current source- and build directories to the
| |
| include path.
| |
| | |
| If this variable is enabled, CMake automatically adds in each
| |
| directory ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR} and ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}
| |
| to the include path for this directory. These additional include
| |
| directories do not propagate down to subdirectories. This is useful
| |
| mainly for out-of-source builds, where files generated into the build
| |
| tree are included by files located in the source tree.
| |
| | |
| By default CMAKE_INCLUDE_CURRENT_DIR is OFF.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_INCLUDE_CURRENT_DIR_IN_INTERFACE
| |
| Automatically add the current source- and build directories to the
| |
| INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES.
| |
| | |
| If this variable is enabled, CMake automatically adds for each shared
| |
| library target, static library target, module target and executable
| |
| target, ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR} and ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR} to
| |
| the INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES.By default
| |
| CMAKE_INCLUDE_CURRENT_DIR_IN_INTERFACE is OFF.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_INSTALL_NAME_DIR
| |
| Mac OSX directory name for installed targets.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_INSTALL_NAME_DIR is used to initialize the INSTALL_NAME_DIR
| |
| property on all targets. See that target property for more
| |
| information.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH
| |
| The rpath to use for installed targets.
| |
| | |
| A semicolon-separated list specifying the rpath to use in installed
| |
| targets (for platforms that support it). This is used to initialize
| |
| the target property INSTALL_RPATH for all targets.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH
| |
| Add paths to linker search and installed rpath.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH is a boolean that if set to true
| |
| will append directories in the linker search path and outside the
| |
| project to the INSTALL_RPATH. This is used to initialize the target
| |
| property INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH for all targets.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
| |
| Where to put all the LIBRARY targets when built.
| |

| | |
| The flag used to specify a library directory to the compiler. On most
| |
| compilers this is "-L".
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_LINK_DEF_FILE_FLAG
| |
| Linker flag used to specify a .def file for dll creation.
| |
| | |
| The flag used to add a .def file when creating a dll on Windows, this
| |
| is only defined on Windows.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_LINK_DEPENDS_NO_SHARED
| |
| Whether to skip link dependencies on shared library files.
| |
| | |
| This variable initializes the LINK_DEPENDS_NO_SHARED property on
| |
| targets when they are created. See that target property for
| |
| additional information.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES
| |
| Default value for LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES of targets.
| |
| | |
| This variable is used to initialize the LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES
| |
| property on all the targets. See that target property for additional
| |
| information.

| |
| is needed only on very few platforms.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARY_FLAG
| |
| Flag used to link a library into an executable.
| |
| | |
| The flag used to specify a library to link to an executable. On most

| compilers this is "-l".
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_MACOSX_BUNDLE
| |
| Default value for MACOSX_BUNDLE of targets.
| |
| | |
| This variable is used to initialize the MACOSX_BUNDLE property on all
| |
| the targets. See that target property for additional information.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_NO_BUILTIN_CHRPATH
| |
| Do not use the builtin ELF editor to fix RPATHs on installation.
| |
| | |
| When an ELF binary needs to have a different RPATH after installation
| |
| than it does in the build tree, CMake uses a builtin editor to change
| |
| the RPATH in the installed copy. If this variable is set to true then
| |
| CMake will relink the binary before installation instead of using its
| |
| builtin editor.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_PDB_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
| |
| Where to put all the MS debug symbol files.
| |
| | |
| This variable is used to initialize the PDB_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY property
| |
| on all the targets. See that target property for additional
| |
| information.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE
| |
| Default value for POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE of targets.

| |
| information.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_SKIP_BUILD_RPATH
| |
| Do not include RPATHs in the build tree.
| |
| | |
| Normally CMake uses the build tree for the RPATH when building
| |
| executables etc on systems that use RPATH. When the software is
| |
| installed the executables etc are relinked by CMake to have the
| |
| install RPATH. If this variable is set to true then the software is
| |
| always built with no RPATH.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_RPATH
| |
| Do not include RPATHs in the install tree.
| |
| | |
| Normally CMake uses the build tree for the RPATH when building
| |
| executables etc on systems that use RPATH. When the software is
| |
| installed the executables etc are relinked by CMake to have the
| |
| install RPATH. If this variable is set to true then the software is
| |
| always installed without RPATH, even if RPATH is enabled when
| |
| building. This can be useful for example to allow running tests from
| |
| the build directory with RPATH enabled before the installation step.
| |
| To omit RPATH in both the build and install steps, use
| |
| CMAKE_SKIP_RPATH instead.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_CONFIGURATION
| |
| Build configuration used for try_compile and try_run projects.
| |
| | |
| Projects built by try_compile and try_run are built synchronously
| |
| during the CMake configuration step. Therefore a specific build
| |
| configuration must be chosen even if the generated build system
| |
| supports multiple configurations.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_USE_RELATIVE_PATHS
| |
| Use relative paths (May not work!).
| |
| | |
| If this is set to TRUE, then the CMake will use relative paths between
| |
| the source and binary tree. This option does not work for more
| |
| complicated projects, and relative paths are used when possible. In
| |
| general, it is not possible to move CMake generated makefiles to a
| |
| different location regardless of the value of this variable.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_WIN32_EXECUTABLE
| |
| Default value for WIN32_EXECUTABLE of targets.
| |
| | |
| This variable is used to initialize the WIN32_EXECUTABLE property on
| |
| all the targets. See that target property for additional information.
| |
| | |
| EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH
| |
| Old executable location variable.
| |
| | |
| The target property RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY supercedes this variable
| |
| for a target if it is set. Executable targets are otherwise placed in
| |
| this directory.
| |
| | |
| LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH
| |
| Old library location variable.
| |
| | |
| The target properties ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY,
| |
| LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY, and RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY supercede this
| |
| variable for a target if they are set. Library targets are otherwise
| |
| placed in this directory.
| |

| ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| |
| Variables that Provide Information
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_AR
| |
| Name of archiving tool for static libraries.
| |
| | |
| This specifies name of the program that creates archive or static
| |
| libraries.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_ARGC
| |
| Number of command line arguments passed to CMake in script mode.
| |
| | |
| When run in -P script mode, CMake sets this variable to the number of
| |
| command line arguments. See also CMAKE_ARGV0, 1, 2 ...
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_ARGV0
| |
| Command line argument passed to CMake in script mode.
| |
| | |
| When run in -P script mode, CMake sets this variable to the first
| |
| command line argument. It then also sets CMAKE_ARGV1, CMAKE_ARGV2,
| |
| ... and so on, up to the number of command line arguments given. See
| |
| also CMAKE_ARGC.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_BINARY_DIR
| |
| The path to the top level of the build tree.
| |
| | |
| This is the full path to the top level of the current CMake build
| |
| tree. For an in-source build, this would be the same as
| |
| CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL
| |
| Tool used for the actual build process.
| |
| | |
| This variable is set to the program that will be needed to build the
| |
| output of CMake. If the generator selected was Visual Studio 6, the
| |
| CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL will be set to msdev, for Unix makefiles it will be
| |
| set to make or gmake, and for Visual Studio 7 it set to devenv. For
| |
| Nmake Makefiles the value is nmake. This can be useful for adding
| |
| special flags and commands based on the final build environment.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_CACHEFILE_DIR
| |
| The directory with the CMakeCache.txt file.
| |
| | |
| This is the full path to the directory that has the CMakeCache.txt
| |
| file in it. This is the same as CMAKE_BINARY_DIR.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_CACHE_MAJOR_VERSION
| |
| Major version of CMake used to create the CMakeCache.txt file
| |
| | |
| This is stores the major version of CMake used to write a CMake cache
| |
| file. It is only different when a different version of CMake is run
| |
| on a previously created cache file.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_CACHE_MINOR_VERSION
| |
| Minor version of CMake used to create the CMakeCache.txt file
| |
| | |
| This is stores the minor version of CMake used to write a CMake cache
| |
| file. It is only different when a different version of CMake is run
| |
| on a previously created cache file.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_CACHE_PATCH_VERSION
| |
| Patch version of CMake used to create the CMakeCache.txt file
| |
| | |
| This is stores the patch version of CMake used to write a CMake cache
| |
| file. It is only different when a different version of CMake is run
| |
| on a previously created cache file.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR
| |
| Build-time reference to per-configuration output subdirectory.
| |
| | |
| For native build systems supporting multiple configurations in the
| |
| build tree (such as Visual Studio and Xcode), the value is a reference
| |
| to a build-time variable specifying the name of the per-configuration
| |
| output subdirectory. On Makefile generators this evaluates to "."
| |
| because there is only one configuration in a build tree. Example
| |
| values:
| |
| | |
| $(IntDir) = Visual Studio 6
| |
| $(OutDir) = Visual Studio 7, 8, 9
| |
| $(Configuration) = Visual Studio 10
| |
| $(CONFIGURATION) = Xcode
| |
| . = Make-based tools
| |
| | |
| Since these values are evaluated by the native build system, this
| |
| variable is suitable only for use in command lines that will be
| |
| evaluated at build time. Example of intended usage:
| |
| | |
| add_executable(mytool mytool.c)
| |
| add_custom_command(
| |
| OUTPUT out.txt
| |
| COMMAND ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR}/mytool
| |
| ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/in.txt out.txt
| |
| DEPENDS mytool in.txt
| |
| )
| |
| add_custom_target(drive ALL DEPENDS out.txt)
| |
| | |
| Note that CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR is no longer necessary for this purpose but
| |
| has been left for compatibility with existing projects. Instead
| |
| add_custom_command() recognizes executable target names in its COMMAND
| |
| option, so "${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR}/mytool"
| |
| can be replaced by just "mytool".
| |
| | |
| This variable is read-only. Setting it is undefined behavior. In
| |
| multi-configuration build systems the value of this variable is passed
| |
| as the value of preprocessor symbol "CMAKE_INTDIR" to the compilation
| |
| of all source files.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_COMMAND
| |
| The full path to the cmake executable.
| |
| | |
| This is the full path to the CMake executable cmake which is useful
| |
| from custom commands that want to use the cmake -E option for portable
| |
| system commands. (e.g. /usr/local/bin/cmake
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING
| |
| Is CMake currently cross compiling.
| |
| | |
| This variable will be set to true by CMake if CMake is cross
| |
| compiling. Specifically if the build platform is different from the
| |
| target platform.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_CTEST_COMMAND
| |
| Full path to ctest command installed with cmake.
| |
| | |
| This is the full path to the CTest executable ctest which is useful
| |
| from custom commands that want to use the cmake -E option for portable
| |
| system commands.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR
| |
| The path to the binary directory currently being processed.
| |
| | |
| This the full path to the build directory that is currently being
| |
| processed by cmake. Each directory added by add_subdirectory will
| |
| create a binary directory in the build tree, and as it is being
| |
| processed this variable will be set. For in-source builds this is the
| |
| current source directory being processed.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR
| |
| Full directory of the listfile currently being processed.
| |
| | |
| As CMake processes the listfiles in your project this variable will
| |
| always be set to the directory where the listfile which is currently
| |
| being processed (CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_FILE) is located. The value has
| |
| dynamic scope. When CMake starts processing commands in a source file
| |
| it sets this variable to the directory where this file is located.
| |
| When CMake finishes processing commands from the file it restores the
| |
| previous value. Therefore the value of the variable inside a macro or
| |
| function is the directory of the file invoking the bottom-most entry
| |
| on the call stack, not the directory of the file containing the macro
| |
| or function definition.
| |
| | |
| See also CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_FILE.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_FILE
| |
| Full path to the listfile currently being processed.
| |
| | |
| As CMake processes the listfiles in your project this variable will
| |
| always be set to the one currently being processed. The value has
| |
| dynamic scope. When CMake starts processing commands in a source file
| |
| it sets this variable to the location of the file. When CMake
| |
| finishes processing commands from the file it restores the previous
| |
| value. Therefore the value of the variable inside a macro or function
| |
| is the file invoking the bottom-most entry on the call stack, not the
| |
| file containing the macro or function definition.
| |
| | |
| See also CMAKE_PARENT_LIST_FILE.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_LINE
| |
| The line number of the current file being processed.

| |
| -ldl on most UNIX machines.
| |
| | |

| |
| | |
| CMAKE_EXTRA_GENERATOR
| |
| The extra generator used to build the project.
| |
| | |
| When using the Eclipse, CodeBlocks or KDevelop generators, CMake
| |
| generates Makefiles (CMAKE_GENERATOR) and additionally project files
| |
| for the respective IDE. This IDE project file generator is stored in
| |
| CMAKE_EXTRA_GENERATOR (e.g. "Eclipse CDT4").
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_EXTRA_SHARED_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES
| |
| Additional suffixes for shared libraries.
| |
| | |

| |
| target.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_GENERATOR
| |

| path is modified to look for 64 bit libraries first.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_SKIP_RPATH
| |
| If true, do not add run time path information.
| |
| | |
| If this is set to TRUE, then the rpath information is not added to
| |
| compiled executables. The default is to add rpath information if the
| |
| platform supports it. This allows for easy running from the build
| |
| tree. To omit RPATH in the install step, but not the build step, use
| |
| CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_RPATH instead.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR
| |
| The path to the top level of the source tree.
| |
| | |
| This is the full path to the top level of the current CMake source

| format CCYYMMDD for the tweak level.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE
| |
| Create verbose makefiles if on.

| |
| component appears in non-release versions and may be arbitrary text.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_VS_PLATFORM_TOOLSET
| |
| Visual Studio Platform Toolset name.
| |
| | |
| VS 10 and above use MSBuild under the hood and support multiple
| |
| compiler toolchains. CMake may specify a toolset explicitly, such as
| |
| "v110" for VS 11 or "Windows7.1SDK" for 64-bit support in VS 10
| |
| Express. CMake provides the name of the chosen toolset in this
| |
| variable.
| |
| | |
| CMAKE_XCODE_PLATFORM_TOOLSET
| |
| Xcode compiler selection.
| |
| | |
| Xcode supports selection of a compiler from one of the installed
| |
| toolsets. CMake provides the name of the chosen toolset in this

| |
| SUBDIR is used to connect several projects.
| |
| | |
| [Project name]_SOURCE_DIR
| |
| Top level source directory for the named project.
| |
| | |
| A variable is created with the name used in the PROJECT command, and
