Added in version 3.16.
Check once if Objective-C source can be built.
check_objc_source_compiles(<code> <resultVar>
[FAIL_REGEX <regex1> [<regex2>...]])
Check once that the source supplied in <code>
can be built. The result is
stored in the internal cache variable specified by <resultVar>
, with
boolean true
for success and boolean false
for failure.
If FAIL_REGEX
is provided, then failure is determined by checking
if anything in the compiler output matches any of the specified regular
expressions.
Internally, try_compile()
is used to compile the source. If
CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE
is set to EXECUTABLE
(default),
the source is compiled and linked as an executable program. If set to
STATIC_LIBRARY
, the source is compiled but not linked. In any case, all
functions must be declared as usual.
See also check_source_compiles()
for a more general command syntax.
See also check_source_runs()
to run compiled source.
The compile and link commands can be influenced by setting any of the
following variables prior to calling check_objc_source_compiles()
CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS
String of additional flags to pass to the compiler. The string must be space-delimited--a ;-list will not work. The contents of
CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS
and its associated configuration-specific variable are automatically added to the compiler command before the contents ofCMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS
.
CMAKE_REQUIRED_DEFINITIONS
A ;-list of compiler definitions of the form
-DFOO
or-DFOO=bar
. A definition for the name specified by<resultVar>
will also be added automatically.
CMAKE_REQUIRED_INCLUDES
A ;-list of header search paths to pass to the compiler. These will be the only header search paths used--the contents of the
INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES
directory property will be ignored.
CMAKE_REQUIRED_LINK_OPTIONS
Added in version 3.14.
A ;-list of options to add to the link command (see
try_compile()
for further details).
CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES
A ;-list of libraries to add to the link command. These can be the name of system libraries or they can be Imported Targets (see
try_compile()
for further details).
CMAKE_REQUIRED_LINK_DIRECTORIES
Added in version 3.31.
A ;-list of libraries search paths to pass to the linker (see
try_compile()
for further details).
CMAKE_REQUIRED_QUIET
Added in version 3.1.
If this variable evaluates to a boolean true value, all status messages associated with the check will be suppressed.
