cmake_language
--------------
Call meta-operations on CMake commands.
Synopsis
^^^^^^^^
.. parsed-literal::
cmake_language(`CALL`_ <command> [<args>...])
cmake_language(`EVAL`_ CODE <code>...)
Introduction
^^^^^^^^^^^^
This command will call meta-operations on built-in CMake commands or
those created via the :command:`macro` or :command:`function` commands.
``cmake_language`` does not introduce a new variable or policy scope.
Calling Commands
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. _CALL:
.. code-block:: cmake
cmake_language(CALL <command> [<args>...])
Calls the named ``<command>`` with the given arguments (if any).
For example, the code:
.. code-block:: cmake
set(message_command "message")
cmake_language(CALL ${message_command} STATUS "Hello World!")
is equivalent to
.. code-block:: cmake
message(STATUS "Hello World!")
.. note::
To ensure consistency of the code, the following commands are not allowed:
* ``if`` / ``elseif`` / ``else`` / ``endif``
* ``while`` / ``endwhile``
* ``foreach`` / ``endforeach``
* ``function`` / ``endfunction``
* ``macro`` / ``endmacro``
Evaluating Code
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. _EVAL:
.. code-block:: cmake
cmake_language(EVAL CODE <code>...)
Evaluates the ``<code>...`` as CMake code.
For example, the code:
.. code-block:: cmake
set(A TRUE)
set(B TRUE)
set(C TRUE)
set(condition "(A AND B) OR C")
cmake_language(EVAL CODE "
if (${condition})
message(STATUS TRUE)
else()
message(STATUS FALSE)
endif()"
)
is equivalent to
.. code-block:: cmake
set(A TRUE)
set(B TRUE)
set(C TRUE)
set(condition "(A AND B) OR C")
file(WRITE ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/eval.cmake "
if (${condition})
message(STATUS TRUE)
else()
message(STATUS FALSE)
endif()"
)
include(${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/eval.cmake)
