Fortran_PREPROCESS ------------------ Control whether the Fortran source file should be unconditionally preprocessed. If unset or empty, rely on the compiler to determine whether the file should be preprocessed. If explicitly set to ``OFF`` then the file does not need to be preprocessed. If explicitly set to ``ON``, then the file does need to be preprocessed as part of the compilation step. When using the :generator:`Ninja` generator, all source files are first preprocessed in order to generate module dependency information. Setting this property to ``OFF`` will make ``Ninja`` skip this step. Use the source-specific :prop_sf:`Fortran_PREPROCESS` property if a single file needs to be preprocessed. If the variable :variable:`CMAKE_Fortran_PREPROCESS` is set when a target is created its value is used to initialize this property. .. note:: For some compilers, ``NAG``, ``PGI`` and ``Solaris Studio``, setting this to ``OFF`` will have no effect.
