* CMP0163: Make GENERATED source file property globally visibleDeniz Bahadir2024-03-292-0/+43
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This was originally attempted by policy CMP0118, but its implementation did not cover all intended use cases. We fixed its documentation in commit 1dabbbb5e0 (CMP0118: Revise documentation to describe actual behavior, 2024-03-20). Add new policy CMP0163 to cover the remaining use cases. In particular, make the `GENERATED` property visible to `get_property` calls in other directories. In order to capture the original intention of CMP0118, define CMP0163's NEW behavior to also imply CMP0118's NEW behavior. Fixes: #25437 Fixes: #25058
* CMP0118: Revise documentation to describe actual behaviorDeniz Bahadir2024-03-211-12/+17
| | | | | | | | The policy was originally intended to make the `GENERATED` source file property globally visible, but the implementation didn't fully achieve that goal. Revise the documentation to describe what it actually does. Issue: #25437

* Help: Clarify standard policy advice paragraph wording on how policies are setBrad King2024-01-111-1/+1

* Help: Drop current CMake version from standard policy advice paragraphBrad King2024-01-111-1/+1
| | | | | | Every policy documents whether CMake warns when it is not set. This behavior does not change with the CMake version, so avoid possibly confusing mention of the current CMake version.
* Help: Normalize and consolidate standard policy advice paragraphBrad King2024-01-11152-557/+510
| | | | | | | | Every policy's documentation has a paragraph on what version of CMake introduced it, how to set the policy, and whether CMake warns if the policy is not set. The wording of this paragraph has diverged across policies over time. Factor the paragraph out into a standard advice document included by every policy.

* | Swift: Add abstraction for compilation modeEvan Wilde2023-11-171-0/+48
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add a `CMAKE_Swift_COMPILATION_MODE` variable and corresponding `Swift_COMPILATION_MODE` target property to control the compilation mode. Select among `wholemodule`, `singlefile`, and `incremental`. Add policy CMP0157 to remove the default `-wmo` flags in favor of the abstract setting. Issue: #25366
* | Link step: Enable to configure deduplication of librariesMarc Chevrier2023-11-091-0/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some platforms, Apple or Windows for instance, do not require to duplicate static libraries to resolve mutual dependencies. Moreover, Xcode version 15 emits a warning if a library is duplicated. On Windows, enable a better control of libraries order. Fixes: #20722, #25297
* | CMP0155: ignore scanning for sources if no scanner is availableBen Boeckel2023-11-011-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This allows for a more graceful transition for projects using C++20 without scanner support (e.g., Clang 15 or GCC 13). While newer compilers will (needlessly) scan, it allows C++20-using projects to use older compilers without having to set `CMAKE_CXX_SCAN_FOR_MODULES` to support newer CMake minimum versions. Fixes: #25357
* | cmNinjaTargetGenerator: do not order-depend on C++ module sourcesBen Boeckel2023-10-201-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | C++ module sources should not be included by any other TUs, so their presence cannot matter for order-only dependencies of the entire target. Exclude them. Update CMP0154 to take this into consideration and add tests to the `CXXModules` suite (which already deals with module support detection).

* | Ninja: Allow compilation before generation of dependencies' private sourcesMartin Duffy2023-09-201-0/+53
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This requires knowing when a generated header is public, which we can model using file sets. Add policy CMP0154 to treat generated sources as private by default in targets with file sets. Generated public headers can be specified in public file sets. Fixes: #24959 Issue: #15555

* | file(REAL_PATH): resolve symlinks before '..' componentsRobert Maynard2023-07-201-0/+20
|/ | | | | | | | Previously REAL_PATH would collapse paths before resolving any symlinks so if `..` crossed a symlink the output from `REAL_PATH` would be wrong. It looked like REAL_PATH did this by mistake since it was a side-effect of ensuring we had an absolute path before resolving symlinks.

Add a policy to use `BuildInParallel` for custom commands in projects that have been updated to set the policy to `NEW`. Fixes: #18405
