UNITY_BUILD_MODE ---------------- CMake provides different algorithms for selecting which sources are grouped together into a *bucket*. Selection is decided by this property, which has the following acceptable values: ``BATCH`` When in this mode CMake determines which files are grouped together. The :prop_tgt:`UNITY_BUILD_BATCH_SIZE` property controls the upper limit on how many sources can be combined per unity source file. Example usage: .. code-block:: cmake add_library(example_library source1.cxx source2.cxx source3.cxx source4.cxx) set_target_properties(example_library PROPERTIES UNITY_BUILD_MODE BATCH UNITY_BUILD_BATCH_SIZE 2 ) ``GROUP`` When in this mode each target explicitly specifies how to group source files. Each source file that has the same :prop_sf:`UNITY_GROUP` value will be grouped together. Any sources that don't have this property will be compiled individually. The :prop_tgt:`UNITY_BUILD_BATCH_SIZE` property is ignored when using this mode. Example usage: .. code-block:: cmake add_library(example_library source1.cxx source2.cxx source3.cxx source4.cxx) set_target_properties(example_library PROPERTIES UNITY_BUILD_MODE GROUP ) set_source_files_properties(source1.cxx source2.cxx source3.cxx PROPERTIES UNITY_GROUP "bucket1" ) set_source_files_properties(source4.cxx PROPERTIES UNITY_GROUP "bucket2" ) If no explicit :prop_tgt:`UNITY_BUILD_MODE` has been specified, CMake will default to ``BATCH``.
