A property that can be set to indicate what programming language the
source file is. If it is not set the language is determined based on
2019-11-11 23:01:05 +01:00
the file extension. Typical values are ``CXX`` (i.e. C++), ``C``,

``CSharp``, ``CUDA``, ``Fortran``, ``HIP``, ``ISPC``, and ``ASM``. Setting
this property for a file means this file will be compiled. Do not set this

for headers or files that should not be compiled.

specified language, using explicit flags if possible. Previously it
only caused the specified language's compiler to be used.
