How to configure CMake output

Question

For example, when compiling .c files, I want cmake to simply print

CC    xxx.c

in stdout, for example linux kbuild.

Answer 1

CMake output can be configured by suppressing the standard messages generated by CMake and outputting the user message to the script launcher. Add the following code to your external CMakeLists.txt:

set_property(GLOBAL PROPERTY RULE_MESSAGES OFF)
set_property(GLOBAL PROPERTY RULE_LAUNCH_COMPILE "${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/custom_output.sh")

RULE_MESSAGES OFF . RULE_LAUNCH_COMPILE script custom_output.sh, CMake:

#!/bin/sh

# shell script invoked with the following arguments
# $(CXX) $(CXX_DEFINES) $(CXX_FLAGS) -o OBJECT_FILE -c SOURCE_FILE

# extract parameters
SOURCE_FILE="${@: -1:1}"
OBJECT_FILE="${@: -3:1}"

echo "CC `basename \"$SOURCE_FILE\"`"

# invoke compiler
exec "$@"

script.

, RULE_LAUNCH_LINK script.
