:module:`ExternalProject` step targets fully adopt their steps.
|
|
|
|
The :command:`ExternalProject_Add` ``STEP_TARGETS`` option, and the
|
|
:command:`ExternalProject_Add_StepTargets` function, can be used to
|
|
create build targets for individual steps of an external project.
|
|
|
|
In CMake 3.18 and below, step targets have some limitations:
|
|
|
|
* Step targets always depend on targets named by the
|
|
:command:`ExternalProject_Add` ``DEPENDS`` option even though
|
|
not all steps need them. In order to allow step targets to be created
|
|
without those dependencies, the :command:`ExternalProject_Add`
|
|
``INDEPENDENT_STEP_TARGETS`` option or the
|
|
:command:`ExternalProject_Add_StepTargets` ``NO_DEPENDS`` option may
|
|
be used. However, adding such "independent" step targets makes sense
|
|
only for specific steps such as ``download``, ``update``, and ``patch``
|
|
because they do not need any of the external project's build dependencies.
|
|
Furthermore, it does not make sense to create independent step targets
|
|
for steps that depend on non-independent steps. Such rules are not
|
|
enforced, and projects that do not follow them can generate build systems
|
|
with confusing and generator-specific behavior.
|
|
|
|
* Step targets hold copies of the custom commands implementing their
|
|
steps that are separate from the copies in the primary target created
|
|
by :command:`ExternalProject_Add`, and the primary target does not
|
|
depend on the step targets. In parallel builds that drive the primary
|
|
target and step targets concurrently, multiple copies of the steps'
|
|
commands may run concurrently and race each other.
|
|
|
|
Also, prior to policy :policy:`CMP0113`, the step targets generated
|
|
by :ref:`Makefile Generators` also contain all the custom commands
|
|
on which their step depends. This can lead to repeated execution of
|
|
those steps even in serial builds.
|
|
|
|
In CMake 3.19 and above, the :module:`ExternalProject` module prefers
|
|
a revised design to address these problems:
|
|
|
|
* Each step is classified as "independent" if it does not depend
|
|
on other targets named by the :command:`ExternalProject_Add` ``DEPENDS``.
|
|
The predefined steps are automatically classified by default:
|
|
|
|
* The ``download``, ``update``, and ``patch`` steps are independent.
|
|
* The ``configure``, ``build``, ``test``, and ``install`` steps are not.
|
|
|
|
For custom steps, the :command:`ExternalProject_Add_Step` command provides
|
|
an ``INDEPENDENT`` option to mark them as independent. It is an error to
|
|
mark a step as independent if it depends on other steps that are not. Note
|
|
that this use of the term "independent" refers only to independence from
|
|
external targets and is orthogonal to a step's dependencies on other steps.
|
|
|
|
* Step targets created by the :command:`ExternalProject_Add` ``STEP_TARGETS``
|
|
option or the :command:`ExternalProject_Add_Step` function are now
|
|
independent if and only if their steps are marked as independent.
|
|
The :command:`ExternalProject_Add` ``INDEPENDENT_STEP_TARGETS`` option
|
|
and :command:`ExternalProject_Add_StepTargets` ``NO_DEPENDS`` option
|
|
are no longer allowed.
|
|
|
|
* Step targets, when created, are fully responsible for holding the
|
|
custom commands implementing their steps. The primary target created
|
|
by :command:`ExternalProject_Add` depends on the step targets, and the
|
|
step targets depend on each other. The target-level dependencies match
|
|
the file-level dependencies used by the custom commands for each step.
|
|
|
|
When the :command:`ExternalProject_Add` ``UPDATE_DISCONNECTED`` or
|
|
``TEST_EXCLUDE_FROM_MAIN`` option is used, or the
|
|
:command:`ExternalProject_Add_Step` ``EXCLUDE_FROM_MAIN`` option is used
|
|
for a custom step, some step targets may be created automatically.
|
|
These are needed to hold the steps commonly depended upon by the primary
|
|
target and the disconnected step targets.
|
|
|
|
Policy ``CMP0114`` provides compatibility for projects that have not been
|
|
updated to expect the new behavior. The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy
|
|
is to use the above-documented behavior from 3.18 and below. The ``NEW``
|
|
behavior for this policy is to use the above-documented behavior preferred
|
|
by 3.19 and above.
|
|
|
|
This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.19. CMake version
|
|
|release| warns when the policy is not set and uses ``OLD`` behavior.
|
|
Use the :command:`cmake_policy` command to set it to ``OLD`` or ``NEW``
|
|
explicitly.
