Honestly I don't understand your request. What would be then the name that better represents what the function does. Also please note this is proposed API to be handled directly by CMake, once there is a green light I'll propose patches to CMake itself. In meantime https://github.com/nanoant/CMakePCHCompiler is just an implementation that "emulates" desired behavior using many tricks. But I don't want this to be a part of CMake, but instead I want this to be handled natively adding some extra variables: CMAKE_<LANG>_PRECOMPILE_HEADER GCC, Clang: same as CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILE_OBJECT MSVC: CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILE_OBJECT with "-c" replaced with "/FoNUL /Yc /Fp" CMAKE_<LANG>_PRECOMPILED_HEADER_EXTENSION GCC: .gch MSVC, Clang: .pch CMAKE_PRECOMPILED_HEADER_FLAG_<LANG> GCC, Clang: -include <PATH> MSVC: /Yu<BASENAME> /Fp<PATH> /FI$<BASENAME> And extending CMake to generate proper build commands for Makefile, Ninja targets, and also Xcode, MSVC generators. -- Adam -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
