Summary0013021: Support for SCM bindings in .sln files
DescriptionWe are using CMake in a project controlled by ClearCase. For ClearCase-Visual Studio integration to function correctly, the ClearCase plugin must be mentioned in the .sln file "Global" section (as follows):

Global
  GlobalSection(RationalClearCase) = preSolution
    SourceControlProvider = RationalClearCase
  EndGlobalSection
  ...
EndGlobal

CMake has support for putting SCM bindings into .vcproj files, but there is no way to put this into the generated .sln file. Could such functionality be added?

I'll be happy to try to create a patch, if this doesn't get backlogged.

Re 0013021:0028844: Backlog *means* that we do not plan to actively work on a topic but are open to the change if a contributor submits a reasonable patch.

For .vcproj files we already have:

  http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html#prop_tgt:VS_GLOBAL_variable [^]
  http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/cmake-2-8-docs.html#prop_tgt:VS_SCC_AUXPATH [^]

and some other VS_SCC_* properties.

Something similar could be done for .sln files by using the *directory* property from the directory invoking the project() command that drives generation of the .sln.

Sorry about the misunderstanding. I'll try my hand at it, then. Thanks for the clarification.

Pter,

Did you solve this? I have the same problem and am looking for a solution.

Thanks,

No, not yet. As tends to happen, our team's priorities have been changed in the meantime.

I've created a patch implementing this. I did some research and found that different SCM bindings require vastly different format of the solution GlobalSection-s, so I added generic properties for defining an arbitrary GlobalSection in the .sln file (using directory properties, as per Brad's idea). I hope this approach is acceptable.

The patch is based on commit a8fa4c0, and includes a test for the functionality, identifiable as -R GlobalSections

I'll be happy to make changes to it as necessary.

I added a merge commit to resolve a conflict with your other recently-contributed topic:
