We're (Microsoft) investigating tighter integration with CMake -Server and the 
IDE.

One of the things we need is to be able to get the location of where a property 
is set.

CMake has a backtracing capability but it looks to me like properties don't 
actually keep track of their set location.

I think the easiest way for me to do this would be to add a backtrace to every 
command execute (not 100% sure yet), but I wanted to query the alias for advice


  1.  Is this a good approach for getting the location of every Set, 
Link_Libraries, etc?
  2.  Should I only do this in server mode so as to not affect normal execution 
with a bunch of extra tracing?

Thanks
