MSVC runtime library flags are selected by an abstraction.
|
|
|
|
Compilers targeting the MSVC ABI have flags to select the MSVC runtime library.
|
|
Runtime library selection typically varies with build configuration because
|
|
there is a separate runtime library for Debug builds.
|
|
|
|
In CMake 3.14 and below, MSVC runtime library selection flags are added to
|
|
the default :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG>` cache entries by CMake
|
|
automatically. This allows users to edit their cache entries to adjust the
|
|
flags. However, the presence of such default flags is problematic for
|
|
projects that want to choose a different runtime library programmatically.
|
|
In particular, it requires string editing of the
|
|
:variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG>` variables with knowledge of the
|
|
CMake builtin defaults so they can be replaced.
|
|
|
|
CMake 3.15 and above prefer to leave the MSVC runtime library selection flags
|
|
out of the default :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG>` values and instead
|
|
offer a first-class abstraction. The :variable:`CMAKE_MSVC_RUNTIME_LIBRARY`
|
|
variable and :prop_tgt:`MSVC_RUNTIME_LIBRARY` target property may be set to
|
|
select the MSVC runtime library. If they are not set then CMake uses the
|
|
default value ``MultiThreaded$<$<CONFIG:Debug>:Debug>DLL`` which is
|
|
equivalent to the original flags.
|
|
|
|
This policy provides compatibility with projects that have not been updated
|
|
to be aware of the abstraction. The policy setting takes effect as of the
|
|
first :command:`project` or :command:`enable_language` command that enables
|
|
a language whose compiler targets the MSVC ABI.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
|
|
Once the policy has taken effect at the top of a project, that choice
|
|
must be used throughout the tree. In projects that have nested projects
|
|
in subdirectories, be sure to convert everything together.
|
|
|
|
The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is to place MSVC runtime library
|
|
flags in the default :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG>` cache
|
|
entries and ignore the :variable:`CMAKE_MSVC_RUNTIME_LIBRARY` abstraction.
|
|
The ``NEW`` behavior for this policy is to *not* place MSVC runtime
|
|
library flags in the default cache entries and use the abstraction instead.
|
|
|
|
This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.15. Use the
|
|
:command:`cmake_policy` command to set it to ``OLD`` or ``NEW`` explicitly.
|
|
Unlike many policies, CMake version |release| does *not* warn
|
|
when this policy is not set and simply uses ``OLD`` behavior.
