Setting this option informs CMake that it should pass
-fcolor-diagnostics flag to the compiler.
(Colorized build system output, like from GNU Make, is produced even
without this flag.)
Note that if the build is done using Ninja and the build output is
redirected (not a TTY), Ninja will still strip the escape codes from
the output. For the case of idf.py, this is handled in the next
commit.
This updates the minimal supported version of CMake to 3.16, which in turn enables us to use more CMake features and have a cleaner build system.
This is the version that provides most new features and also the one we use in our latest docker image for CI.
This component property allows including all component object files
into the executable. It is equivalent to wrapping the component
library with -Wl,--whole-archive and -Wl,--no-whole-archive flags.

COMPONENT_DIRS and EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS should be defined as CMake
lists, using 'set' or 'list' commands. Some applications written
for earlier versions of ESP-IDF used to define these variables as
space separated strings.
For example, the following is correct:
set(EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS path/to/components path/to/more/components)
The following is not correct:
set(EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS "${EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS} component1")
set(EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS "${EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS} component2")
The string "component1 component2" may indicate a single directory
name with a space, or two directory names separated by space.
However due to the fact that such way of defining EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS
was supported in IDF 4.3 and earlier, we need to provide backward
compatibility for it.
This commit introduces a new script, split_paths_by_spaces.py, which
is invoked if EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS or COMPONENT_DIRS variable contains
spaces. The script tries to determine if each space should be
interpreted as a separator or as part of the directory name.
When this cannot be done unambiguously, the script reports an error.
In all cases when space separators are detected, the script reports
a warning, and prints instructions for fixing the CMakeLists.txt.
Breaking change in this commit: specifying non-existent directories
in COMPONENT_DIRS or EXTRA_COMPONENT_DIRS is no longer allowed.
These optional feature produces a graphviz file showing component
dependencies. It is useful for debugging reasons why certain
components got added to the build.
Adds a hidden option to link components in projects as one big group for
debugging purposes. Makes it easy to single out if symbols are not
really defined or some requirements are missing for components leading
to undefined link errors.
This commit makes it so that BUILD_COMPONENT holds only the component,
and a new property BUILD_COMPONENT_ALIASES hold the full name of the
component.
This also removes erroneous check for duplicate components, as this can
never happen:
(1) if two components have the same name but different prefixes,
the internal names are still unique between them
(2)if two components happen to have the same name and same prefix, the
latter would override the former
