Summary

0014309: CHECK_C_COMPILER_FLAG does not behave like the manpage states

Description

The manpage states that CHECK_C_COMPILER_FLAG accepts the same flags as CHECK_C_SOURCE_COMPILES, but then it overwrites CMAKE_REQUIRED_DEFINITIONS.

So either the manpage is wrong or the implementation is wrong. I found the bug because I relied on the documented behaviour - I want to have some fixed flags to be passed to all tests.

Workaround (as of now untested): pass the flag to test plus all the fixed flags to
CHECK_C_COMPILER_FLAG

Steps To Reproduce

Read the source, Luke (Modules/CheckCCompilerFlag.cmake)

Additional Information

At least versions 2.8.9 and git HEAD.
