* Prefer CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM over CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL (#14548)Brad King2013-11-181-8/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Historically these were both added for the Makefile and Visual Studio generators, respectively. Later the VS generators started using the CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM cache entry to find the IDE build tool, and the CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL was simply set as an alias. Fix the documentation to explain that CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM is the modern variable and that CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL is the compatibility alias, not the other way around. Replace uses of CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL with CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM in CMake-provided modules. Nothing needs to lookup CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL in the cache, so simply set it as a normal variable.

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