Ninja ----- Generates build.ninja files. A ``build.ninja`` file is generated into the build tree. Use the ninja program to build the project through the ``all`` target and install the project through the ``install`` (or ``install/strip``) target. For each subdirectory ``sub/dir`` of the project, additional targets are generated: ``sub/dir/all`` Depends on all targets required by the subdirectory. ``sub/dir/install`` Runs the install step in the subdirectory, if any. ``sub/dir/install/strip`` Runs the install step in the subdirectory followed by a ``CMAKE_STRIP`` command, if any. The ``CMAKE_STRIP`` variable will contain the platform's ``strip`` utility, which removes symbols information from generated binaries. ``sub/dir/test`` Runs the test step in the subdirectory, if any. ``sub/dir/package`` Runs the package step in the subdirectory, if any. Fortran Support ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The ``Ninja`` generator conditionally supports Fortran when the ``ninja`` tool has the required features. As of this version of CMake the needed features have not been integrated into upstream Ninja. Kitware maintains a branch of Ninja with the required features on `github.com/Kitware/ninja`_. .. _`github.com/Kitware/ninja`: https://github.com/Kitware/ninja/tree/features-for-fortran#readme
