Re: [cmake-developers] Header-only library targets

I've recently switched from CMake 2.8.12 to 3.2, full of enthusiasm that header-only libraries would now be better supported through the INTERFACE option/target. However, the support for header-only libraries isn't really great, in particular if you're using an IDE like Visual Studio. The

Re: [cmake-developers] [PATCH 2/9] Xcode: Sort Xcode objects by Id

Xcode keeps the objects ordered by the object id. Because cmake stores them into an unordered container at creation time they must be sorted before writing the pbxproj file. out of curiosity: what exactly is the id? the uuid identifier or the target name? when ordering targets in the project,

Re: [cmake-developers] [PATCH 2/9] Xcode: Sort Xcode objects by Id

Effectively it is a UUID for our purposes. The ordering Gregor proposes is to match what Xcode writes when it generates the .pbxproj file, and we can't choose that. i see ... is it (easily) possible to lexicographically sort he user-visible appearance? this is something that can be changed

Re: [cmake-developers] [PATCH 2/9] Xcode: Sort Xcode objects by Id
