cmake_parse_arguments
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
Parse function or macro arguments.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cmake
|
|
|
|
cmake_parse_arguments(<prefix> <options> <one_value_keywords>
|
|
<multi_value_keywords> <args>...)
|
|
|
|
cmake_parse_arguments(PARSE_ARGV <N> <prefix> <options>
|
|
<one_value_keywords> <multi_value_keywords>)
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.5
|
|
This command is implemented natively. Previously, it has been defined in the
|
|
module :module:`CMakeParseArguments`.
|
|
|
|
This command is for use in macros or functions.
|
|
It processes the arguments given to that macro or function,
|
|
and defines a set of variables which hold the values of the
|
|
respective options.
|
|
|
|
The first signature reads processes arguments passed in the ``<args>...``.
|
|
This may be used in either a :command:`macro` or a :command:`function`.
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.7
|
|
The ``PARSE_ARGV`` signature is only for use in a :command:`function`
|
|
body. In this case the arguments that are parsed come from the
|
|
``ARGV#`` variables of the calling function. The parsing starts with
|
|
the ``<N>``-th argument, where ``<N>`` is an unsigned integer.
|
|
This allows for the values to have special characters like ``;`` in them.
|
|
|
|
The ``<options>`` argument contains all options for the respective macro,
|
|
i.e. keywords which can be used when calling the macro without any value
|
|
following, like e.g. the ``OPTIONAL`` keyword of the :command:`install`
|
|
command.
|
|
|
|
The ``<one_value_keywords>`` argument contains all keywords for this macro
|
|
which are followed by one value, like e.g. ``DESTINATION`` keyword of the
|
|
:command:`install` command.
|
|
|
|
The ``<multi_value_keywords>`` argument contains all keywords for this
|
|
macro which can be followed by more than one value, like e.g. the
|
|
``TARGETS`` or ``FILES`` keywords of the :command:`install` command.
|
|
|
|
.. versionchanged:: 3.5
|
|
All keywords shall be unique. I.e. every keyword shall only be specified
|
|
once in either ``<options>``, ``<one_value_keywords>`` or
|
|
``<multi_value_keywords>``. A warning will be emitted if uniqueness is
|
|
violated.
|
|
|
|
When done, ``cmake_parse_arguments`` will consider for each of the
|
|
keywords listed in ``<options>``, ``<one_value_keywords>`` and
|
|
``<multi_value_keywords>`` a variable composed of the given ``<prefix>``
|
|
followed by ``"_"`` and the name of the respective keyword. These
|
|
variables will then hold the respective value from the argument list
|
|
or be undefined if the associated option could not be found.
|
|
For the ``<options>`` keywords, these will always be defined,
|
|
to ``TRUE`` or ``FALSE``, whether the option is in the argument list or not.
|
|
|
|
All remaining arguments are collected in a variable
|
|
``<prefix>_UNPARSED_ARGUMENTS`` that will be undefined if all arguments
|
|
were recognized. This can be checked afterwards to see
|
|
whether your macro was called with unrecognized parameters.
|
|
|
|
.. versionadded:: 3.15
|
|
``<one_value_keywords>`` and ``<multi_value_keywords>`` that were given no
|
|
values at all are collected in a variable
|
|
``<prefix>_KEYWORDS_MISSING_VALUES`` that will be undefined if all keywords
|
|
received values. This can be checked to see if there were keywords without
|
|
any values given.
|
|
|
|
Consider the following example macro, ``my_install()``, which takes similar
|
|
arguments to the real :command:`install` command:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cmake
|
|
|
|
macro(my_install)
|
|
set(options OPTIONAL FAST)
|
|
set(oneValueArgs DESTINATION RENAME)
|
|
set(multiValueArgs TARGETS CONFIGURATIONS)
|
|
cmake_parse_arguments(MY_INSTALL "${options}" "${oneValueArgs}"
|
|
"${multiValueArgs}" ${ARGN} )
|
|
|
|
# ...
|
|
|
|
Assume ``my_install()`` has been called like this:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cmake
|
|
|
|
my_install(TARGETS foo bar DESTINATION bin OPTIONAL blub CONFIGURATIONS)
|
|
|
|
After the ``cmake_parse_arguments`` call the macro will have set or undefined
|
|
the following variables::
|
|
|
|
MY_INSTALL_OPTIONAL = TRUE
|
|
MY_INSTALL_FAST = FALSE # was not used in call to my_install
|
|
MY_INSTALL_DESTINATION = "bin"
|
|
MY_INSTALL_RENAME <UNDEFINED> # was not used
|
|
MY_INSTALL_TARGETS = "foo;bar"
|
|
MY_INSTALL_CONFIGURATIONS <UNDEFINED> # was not used
|
|
MY_INSTALL_UNPARSED_ARGUMENTS = "blub" # nothing expected after "OPTIONAL"
|
|
MY_INSTALL_KEYWORDS_MISSING_VALUES = "CONFIGURATIONS"
|
|
# No value for "CONFIGURATIONS" given
|
|
|
|
You can then continue and process these variables.
|
|
|
|
Keywords terminate lists of values, e.g. if directly after a
|
|
``one_value_keyword`` another recognized keyword follows, this is
|
|
interpreted as the beginning of the new option. E.g.
|
|
``my_install(TARGETS foo DESTINATION OPTIONAL)`` would result in
|
|
``MY_INSTALL_DESTINATION`` set to ``"OPTIONAL"``, but as ``OPTIONAL``
|
|
is a keyword itself ``MY_INSTALL_DESTINATION`` will be empty (but added
|
|
to ``MY_INSTALL_KEYWORDS_MISSING_VALUES``) and ``MY_INSTALL_OPTIONAL`` will
|
|
therefore be set to ``TRUE``.
