| Summary | 0008851: Allow to globally set which compiler to use with a given file extension | ||||||||
| Description | CMAKE_CXX_SOURCE_FILE_EXTENSIONS and CMAKE_C_SOURCE_FILE_EXTENSIONS are currently read-only variables, as they are: - overwritten by project() or enable_language() if they are set before calling these functions. - not taken into account anymore after calling these functions. So the current and ugly way to let cmake know that you want, let's say all .c files considered as C++ is to set the LANGUAGE property for all of them. Modifications to CMAKE_CXX_SOURCE_FILE_EXTENSIONS and CMAKE_C_SOURCE_FILE_EXTENSIONS values should be honored after calling project() or enable_language(). Typical use case: project(MY_PROJECT C CXX) # also add "C" because a specific lib might need to be compiled in pure C. list(APPEND CMAKE_CXX_SOURCE_FILE_EXTENSIONS "c") list(REMOVE_ITEM CMAKE_C_SOURCE_FILE_EXTENSIONS "c") add_subdirectory(...) | ||||||||

I also would have needed this before and like to propose a quite simple solution for this: If CMAKE_<LANG>_SOURCE_FILE_EXTENSIONS and CMAKE_<LANG>_IGNORE_EXTENSIONS would be defined as cached variables (without FORCE) I could change/pre-define its value as I could do with CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS (including the possibility to set it in a toolchain file). E.g. changing CMakeCXXCompiler.cmake.in to: ... set(CMAKE_CXX_IGNORE_EXTENSIONS inl;h;hpp;HPP;H;o;O;obj;OBJ;def;DEF;rc;RC CACHE INTERNAL "") set(CMAKE_CXX_SOURCE_FILE_EXTENSIONS C;M;c++;cc;cpp;cxx;mm;CPP CACHE INTERNAL "") ... That would still need to be defined before the project()/enable_language() commands, but at least I could change the values. Possible workaround with current versions: using one of the "hooks"/configuration variables inside e.g. CMakeCXXCompiler.cmake.in: cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8) set(CMAKE_CXX_SYSROOT_FLAG_CODE "list(APPEND CMAKE_CXX_SOURCE_FILE_EXTENSIONS xyz)") project(Test CXX) add_executable(Test SomeOtherFile.xyz) |
