Hello, For our CI and production build we call cmake --build to execute the actual build. To be able to examine the build logs we added -DCMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=ON to the configuration step. This worked as expected for the Makefile generator but is ignored for Ninja.
As far as I understand the code, the Makefile generator adds a VERBOSE statement to the Makefile so that make automatically switches to verbose mode when being executed. Unfortunately Ninja has no equivalent option. As a work-around would it be possible that cmake --build examines the cache, detects CMAKE_VERBOSE_MAKEFILE=ON and adds a -v to the Ninja invocation? If you think that this is a reasonable approach could you please give me some pointers where to insert the necessary code?
