* Add usage requirements to update direct link dependenciesBrad King2022-01-291-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Link line construction starts with `LINK_LIBRARIES` and appends dependencies from the transitive closure of `INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES`. Only the entries of `LINK_LIBRARIES` are considered direct link dependencies. In some advanced use cases, particularly involving static libraries and static plugins, usage requirements need to update the list of direct link dependencies. This may mean adding new items, removing existing items, or both. Add target properties to encode these usage requirements: * INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES_DIRECT * INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES_DIRECT_EXCLUDE Fixes: #22496
* Help: Cross-reference LINK_LIBRARIES and INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIESBrad King2022-01-291-2/+5

* target_link_libraries: Allow use with targets in other directoriesBrad King2018-09-121-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously the command did not allow naming targets on the LHS that were not created in the calling directory. Lift this restriction to enable more flexible use by projects. Targets named on the RHS will need to be looked up during generation in the scope of the call site rather than the scope of the LHS target. Introduce an internal syntax in `[INTERFACE_]LINK_LIBRARIES` properties to specify target names that need to be looked up in a directory other than that containing the target on which the property is set. Add minimal documentation of the syntax to help users that encounter it. Unfortunately CMake previously did allow such calls in the case that only `INTERFACE` libraries are specified, but those libraries would be looked up in the target's directory rather than the caller's. Add policy `CMP0079` to enable the new behavior with new lookup scope in a compatible way. Fixes: #17943

* Help: Factor out cmake-generator-expressions manual pageBrad King2013-10-161-75/+3
| | | | | | | | | Generator expressions are supported in many places and are a distinct concept worthy of their own manual page. The old builtin documentation was previously represented by preprocessor macros to generate it into each place that supports them. Factor out the duplicate content into a dedicated cmake-generator-expressions manual page and reference it from each original location.

Run the convert-help.bash script to convert documentation: ./convert-help.bash "/path/to/CMake-build/bin" Then remove it.
