The set of options is de-duplicated to avoid repetition. +While beneficial for individual options, the de-duplication step can break +up option groups. For example, ``-D A -D B`` becomes ``-D A B``. One may +specify a group of options using shell-like quoting along with a ``SHELL:`` +prefix. The ``SHELL:`` prefix is dropped and the rest of the option string +is parsed using the :command:`separate_arguments` ``UNIX_COMMAND`` mode. +For example, ``"SHELL:-D A" "SHELL:-D B"`` becomes ``-D A -D B``. diff --git a/Help/command/add_compile_options.rst b/Help/command/add_compile_options.rst index 3fe2a33..44924e6 100644 --- a/Help/command/add_compile_options.rst +++ b/Help/command/add_compile_options.rst @@ -21,3 +21,5 @@ Arguments to ``add_compile_options`` may use "generator expressions" with the syntax ``$<...>``.
