-# GenerateExportHeader
-# --------------------
-#
-# Function for generation of export macros for libraries
-#
-# This module provides the function GENERATE_EXPORT_HEADER().
-#
-# The ``GENERATE_EXPORT_HEADER`` function can be used to generate a file
-# suitable for preprocessor inclusion which contains EXPORT macros to be
-# used in library classes::
-#
-# GENERATE_EXPORT_HEADER( LIBRARY_TARGET
-# [BASE_NAME <base_name>]
-# [EXPORT_MACRO_NAME <export_macro_name>]
-# [EXPORT_FILE_NAME <export_file_name>]
-# [DEPRECATED_MACRO_NAME <deprecated_macro_name>]
-# [NO_EXPORT_MACRO_NAME <no_export_macro_name>]
-# [INCLUDE_GUARD_NAME <include_guard_name>]
-# [STATIC_DEFINE <static_define>]
-# [NO_DEPRECATED_MACRO_NAME <no_deprecated_macro_name>]
-# [DEFINE_NO_DEPRECATED]
-# [PREFIX_NAME <prefix_name>]
-# [CUSTOM_CONTENT_FROM_VARIABLE <variable>]
-# )
-#
-#
-# The target properties :prop_tgt:`CXX_VISIBILITY_PRESET <<LANG>_VISIBILITY_PRESET>`
-# and :prop_tgt:`VISIBILITY_INLINES_HIDDEN` can be used to add the appropriate
-# compile flags for targets. See the documentation of those target properties,
-# and the convenience variables
-# :variable:`CMAKE_CXX_VISIBILITY_PRESET <CMAKE_<LANG>_VISIBILITY_PRESET>` and
-# :variable:`CMAKE_VISIBILITY_INLINES_HIDDEN`.
-#
-# By default ``GENERATE_EXPORT_HEADER()`` generates macro names in a file
-# name determined by the name of the library. This means that in the
-# simplest case, users of ``GenerateExportHeader`` will be equivalent to:
-#
-# .. code-block:: cmake
-#
-# set(CMAKE_CXX_VISIBILITY_PRESET hidden)
-# set(CMAKE_VISIBILITY_INLINES_HIDDEN 1)
-# add_library(somelib someclass.cpp)
-# generate_export_header(somelib)
-# install(TARGETS somelib DESTINATION ${LIBRARY_INSTALL_DIR})
-# install(FILES
-# someclass.h
-# ${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}/somelib_export.h DESTINATION ${INCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR}
-# )
-#
-#
-# And in the ABI header files:
-#
-# .. code-block:: c++
-#
-# #include "somelib_export.h"
-# class SOMELIB_EXPORT SomeClass {
-# ...
-# };
-#
-#
-# The CMake fragment will generate a file in the
-# ``${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}`` called ``somelib_export.h`` containing the
-# macros ``SOMELIB_EXPORT``, ``SOMELIB_NO_EXPORT``, ``SOMELIB_DEPRECATED``,
-# ``SOMELIB_DEPRECATED_EXPORT`` and ``SOMELIB_DEPRECATED_NO_EXPORT``.
-# They will be followed by content taken from the variable specified by
-# the ``CUSTOM_CONTENT_FROM_VARIABLE`` option, if any.
-# The resulting file should be installed with other headers in the library.
-#
-# The ``BASE_NAME`` argument can be used to override the file name and the
-# names used for the macros:
-#
-# .. code-block:: cmake
-#
-# add_library(somelib someclass.cpp)
-# generate_export_header(somelib
-# BASE_NAME other_name
-# )
-#
-#
-# Generates a file called ``other_name_export.h`` containing the macros
-# ``OTHER_NAME_EXPORT``, ``OTHER_NAME_NO_EXPORT`` and ``OTHER_NAME_DEPRECATED``
-# etc.
-#
-# The ``BASE_NAME`` may be overridden by specifying other options in the
-# function. For example:
-#
-# .. code-block:: cmake
-#
-# add_library(somelib someclass.cpp)
-# generate_export_header(somelib
-# EXPORT_MACRO_NAME OTHER_NAME_EXPORT
-# )
-#
-#
-# creates the macro ``OTHER_NAME_EXPORT`` instead of ``SOMELIB_EXPORT``, but
-# other macros and the generated file name is as default:
-#
-# .. code-block:: cmake
-#
-# add_library(somelib someclass.cpp)
-# generate_export_header(somelib
-# DEPRECATED_MACRO_NAME KDE_DEPRECATED
-# )
-#
-#
-# creates the macro ``KDE_DEPRECATED`` instead of ``SOMELIB_DEPRECATED``.
-#
-# If ``LIBRARY_TARGET`` is a static library, macros are defined without
-# values.
-#
-# If the same sources are used to create both a shared and a static
-# library, the uppercased symbol ``${BASE_NAME}_STATIC_DEFINE`` should be
-# used when building the static library:
-#
-# .. code-block:: cmake
-#
-# add_library(shared_variant SHARED ${lib_SRCS})
-# add_library(static_variant ${lib_SRCS})
-# generate_export_header(shared_variant BASE_NAME libshared_and_static)
-# set_target_properties(static_variant PROPERTIES
-# COMPILE_FLAGS -DLIBSHARED_AND_STATIC_STATIC_DEFINE)
-#
-# This will cause the export macros to expand to nothing when building
-# the static library.
-#
-# If ``DEFINE_NO_DEPRECATED`` is specified, then a macro
-# ``${BASE_NAME}_NO_DEPRECATED`` will be defined This macro can be used to
-# remove deprecated code from preprocessor output:
-#
-# .. code-block:: cmake
-#
-# option(EXCLUDE_DEPRECATED "Exclude deprecated parts of the library" FALSE)
-# if (EXCLUDE_DEPRECATED)
-# set(NO_BUILD_DEPRECATED DEFINE_NO_DEPRECATED)
-# endif()
-# generate_export_header(somelib ${NO_BUILD_DEPRECATED})
-#
-#
-# And then in somelib:
-#
-# .. code-block:: c++
-#
-# class SOMELIB_EXPORT SomeClass
-# {
-# public:
-# #ifndef SOMELIB_NO_DEPRECATED
-# SOMELIB_DEPRECATED void oldMethod();
-# #endif
-# };
-#
-# .. code-block:: c++
-#
-# #ifndef SOMELIB_NO_DEPRECATED
-# void SomeClass::oldMethod() { }
-# #endif
-#
-#
-# If ``PREFIX_NAME`` is specified, the argument will be used as a prefix to
-# all generated macros.
-#
-# For example:
-#
-# .. code-block:: cmake
-#
-# generate_export_header(somelib PREFIX_NAME VTK_)
-#
-# Generates the macros ``VTK_SOMELIB_EXPORT`` etc.
-#
-# ::
-#
-# ADD_COMPILER_EXPORT_FLAGS( [<output_variable>] )
-#
-# The ``ADD_COMPILER_EXPORT_FLAGS`` function adds ``-fvisibility=hidden`` to
-# :variable:`CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS <CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS>` if supported, and is a no-op
-# on Windows which does not need extra compiler flags for exporting support.
-# You may optionally pass a single argument to ``ADD_COMPILER_EXPORT_FLAGS``
-# that will be populated with the ``CXX_FLAGS`` required to enable visibility
-# support for the compiler/architecture in use.
-#
-# This function is deprecated. Set the target properties
-# :prop_tgt:`CXX_VISIBILITY_PRESET <<LANG>_VISIBILITY_PRESET>` and
