Summary0012055: Java: support source file lists for java compilation
DescriptionJavac allows to specify source files by using a list file containing paths to multiple java source files.
E.g. javac @my_list_file.txt

This way, one could deal with dynamically generated source files which are not known at configure time (swig output in my case).

Find an attached patch as an initial suggestion and basis for discussion.

In the suggested solution one can add a '@<path-to-file>' to the _JAVA_SOURCE_FILES argument handed to the add_jar function. Source files with leading '@' are detected and treated adequately.
Steps To Reproduce
Additional InformationAttached a git unified-diff created on 'Modules/UseJava.cmake' in 1df325da44520a4db2ddc6d2586b83d33d7ec807 of git://cmake.org/stage/cmake.git [^]

Hi,

thanks for your patch. The first check should be:

if (_JAVA_SOURCE_FILE MATCHES "^@")
    string(REGEX REPLACE "^@" "" _JAVA_SOURCE_FILE "${_JAVA_SOURCE_FILE}")
    set(_JAVA_IS_SOURCE_LIST_FILE TRUE)
else()
    set(_JAVA_IS_SOURCE_LIST_FILE FALSE)
endif()

Please test the TODO. Or write a test for it. We need to make sure this works.
