We may not need the "else" part but we still need a strict and extensible syntax to delimit the value in the "..." part above. > Perhaps we can get object-orientated: > > populate_target_usage_requirements( > NAME fooRequirements > [PUBLIC|PRIVATE] > INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES "/foo/bar" > INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES "/bat/bug" IF $<CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE> MATCHES Debug > COMPILE_DEFINITIONS "-DQT_CORE_LIB" > COMPILE_DEFINITIONS "-DQT_GUI_LIB" IF BUILD_TESTING > ) I think it will be hard to define the reach to the left of IF in non-trivial cases, especially when the arguments are built up inside a variable and some parts might end up empty. Also the result of this command will still need to be stored in the property as some kind of generator expression, so we still need to define such an expression. -Brad -- Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cmake-developers
