- This file provides a few notes to CMake developers about how to add
- support for a new language to CMake. It is also possible to place
- these files in :variable:`CMAKE_MODULE_PATH` within an outside project
- to add languages not supported by upstream CMake. However, this is not
- a fully supported use case.
- The implementation behind the scenes of project/enable_language,
- including the compiler/platform modules, is an *internal* API that
- does not make any compatibility guarantees. It is not covered in the
- official reference documentation that is versioned with the source code.
- Maintainers of external language support are responsible for porting
- it to each version of CMake as upstream changes are made. Since
- the API is internal we will not necessarily include notice of any
- changes in release notes.
- CMakeDetermine(LANG)Compiler.cmake -> this should find the compiler for LANG and configure CMake(LANG)Compiler.cmake.in
- CMake(LANG)Compiler.cmake.in -> used by CMakeDetermine(LANG)Compiler.cmake
- This file is used to store compiler information and is copied down into try
- compile directories so that try compiles do not need to re-determine and test the LANG
- CMakeTest(LANG)Compiler.cmake -> test the compiler and set:
- SET(CMAKE_(LANG)_COMPILER_WORKS 1 CACHE INTERNAL "")
- CMake(LANG)Information.cmake -> set up rule variables for LANG :
- CMAKE_(LANG)_CREATE_SHARED_LIBRARY
- CMAKE_(LANG)_CREATE_SHARED_MODULE
- CMAKE_(LANG)_CREATE_STATIC_LIBRARY
- CMAKE_(LANG)_COMPILE_OBJECT
- CMAKE_(LANG)_LINK_EXECUTABLE
