CheckOBJCXXSourceCompiles
-------------------------

.. versionadded:: 3.16

This module provides a command to check whether an Objective-C++ source can
be built.

Load this module in a CMake project with:

.. code-block:: cmake

  include(CheckOBJCXXSourceCompiles)

Commands
^^^^^^^^

This module provides the following command:

.. command:: check_objcxx_source_compiles

  Checks once whether the given Objective-C++ source code can be built:

  .. code-block:: cmake

    check_objcxx_source_compiles(<code> <variable> [FAIL_REGEX <regexes>...])

  This command checks once that the source supplied in ``<code>`` can be
  compiled (and linked into an executable).  The result of the check is
  stored in the internal cache variable specified by ``<variable>``.

  The arguments are:

  ``<code>``
    Objective-C++ source code to check.  This must be an entire program, as
    written in a file containing the body block.  All symbols used in the
    source code are expected to be declared as usual in their corresponding
    headers.

  ``<variable>``
    Variable name of an internal cache variable to store the result of the
    check, with boolean true for success and boolean false for failure.

  ``FAIL_REGEX <regexes>...``
    If this option is provided with one or more regular expressions, then
    failure is determined by checking if anything in the compiler output
    matches any of the specified regular expressions.

  .. rubric:: Variables Affecting the Check

  The following variables may be set before calling this command to modify
  the way the check is run:

  .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS.rst

  .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_DEFINITIONS.rst

  .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_INCLUDES.rst

  .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_LINK_OPTIONS.rst

  .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES.rst

  .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_LINK_DIRECTORIES.rst

  .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_QUIET.rst

  .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE.rst

Examples
^^^^^^^^

In the following example, this module is used to check whether the provided
Objective-C++ source code can be compiled and linked.  Result of the check
is stored in the internal cache variable ``HAVE_WORKING_CODE``.

.. code-block:: cmake

  include(CheckOBJCXXSourceCompiles)

  check_objcxx_source_compiles("
    #include <vector>
    #import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
    int main()
    {
      std::vector<int> v;
      NSObject *foo;
      return 0;
    }
  " HAVE_WORKING_CODE)
