You need to guard the flags with `$<COMPILE_LANGUAGE:CXX>` the evaluation on a given compiler id is done for all sources of a target, and not on each target source file.
So you will need something like: set(cxx_flags "$<$<OR:$<CXX_COMPILER_ID:GNU>,$<CXX_COMPILER_ID:Clang>>:-Wall -Wextra -pedantic> $<$<CXX_COMPILER_ID:MSVC>:/W4") target_compile_options(${PROJECT_NAME} PRIVATE $<$<COMPILE_LANGUAGE:CXX>:${cxx_flags}>) On Fri, Feb 22, 2019 at 4:11 AM Máté Ferenc Nagy-Egri via CMake <cmake@cmake.org> wrote: > > Hi All! > > I am trying to compile CUDA code with controlling both host and device > compiler flags. > > Currently my CMakeLists.txt looks like: > > ``` > cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.8) # CUDA language support > > project(CUDA_test LANGUAGES CXX CUDA) > > if (MSVC) > string(REGEX REPLACE "/W[0-9]" "" CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS ${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS}) > endif (MSVC) > > set(Hdrs) > > set(Srcs Main.cu) > > add_executable(${PROJECT_NAME} ${Hdrs} ${Srcs}) > > target_include_directories(${PROJECT_NAME} PRIVATE > ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}) > > target_compile_options(${PROJECT_NAME} PRIVATE > $<$<OR:$<CXX_COMPILER_ID:GNU>,$<CXX_COMPILER_ID:Clang>>:-Wall -Wextra > -pedantic> > $<$<CXX_COMPILER_ID:MSVC>:/W4>) > > set_target_properties(${PROJECT_NAME} PROPERTIES CUDA_SEPARABLE_COMPILATION ON > CUDA_STANDARD 14 > CUDA_STANDARD_REQUIRED ON > CUDA_EXTENSIONS OFF > CXX_STANDARD 14 > CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED ON > CXX_EXTENSIONS OFF) > > source_group ("Headers" FILES ${Hdrs}) > source_group ("Sources" FILES ${Srcs}) > ``` > > However, when I compile the code I get the following error: > > [1/3] Building CUDA object CMakeFiles/CUDA_test.dir/Main.cu.o > FAILED: CMakeFiles/CUDA_test.dir/Main.cu.o > /usr/bin/nvcc > -I/var/tmp/src/e75971a9-7e91-6137-abfa-df34048cc171/GCC-Debug-WSL -g -Wall > -Wextra -pedantic -std=c++14 -x cu -dc > /var/tmp/src/e75971a9-7e91-6137-abfa-df34048cc171/GCC-Debug-WSL/Main.cu -o > CMakeFiles/CUDA_test.dir/Main.cu.o && /usr/bin/nvcc > -I/var/tmp/src/e75971a9-7e91-6137-abfa-df34048cc171/GCC-Debug-WSL -g -Wall > -Wextra -pedantic -std=c++14 -x cu -M > /var/tmp/src/e75971a9-7e91-6137-abfa-df34048cc171/GCC-Debug-WSL/Main.cu -MT > CMakeFiles/CUDA_test.dir/Main.cu.o -o CMakeFiles/CUDA_test.dir/Main.cu.o.d > nvcc fatal : Unknown option 'Wall' > ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed. > > CMake seems to pass -Wall -Wextra -pedantic to the device compiler as well, > even though it is neither GNU nor Clang, but CUDA.
