I once wanted to enchance the makefile generators with batch-mode support and built CMake myself and walked through the code in debug mode to see what it does. I identified the entry point where I should’ve placed my code, but essential it would’ve require a major rewrite of the makefile generators to enable deferred makefile generation. Daunted by the amount of work, I figured it was not worth the effort. (It was primarily motivated by NMake.)</p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>I’ll try giving the file API a spin and see if I understand the code enough to be able to add new queries and extract tests from the internal representation.
