Summary

0010492: CMAKE_CXX_STACK_SIZE parameter incorrectly handled when generating Visual Studio 2010 projects

Description

Added this line to our CMakeLists.txt file:
  SET( CMAKE_CXX_STACK_SIZE "20000000" )
Generated VS 2010 .vcxproj file, compiled, linked, got error:
  LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file '20000000.obj'

The one-line fix to this problem is in cmVisualStudio10TargetGenerator.cxx, in cmVisualStudio10TargetGenerator::WriteLinkOptions, change:
  if(stackVal)
    {
    flags += " ";
    flags += stackVal;
    }
to:
  if(stackVal)
    {
    flags += " /STACK:";
    flags += stackVal;
    }

I applied the above fix to my local build of CMake, and now the CMAKE_CXX_STACK_SIZE option properly sets the "Stack Reserve Size" field in Visual Studio and the program links and runs just fine.

CMAKE_CXX_STACK_SIZE is an obscure flag, but it is a CMake feature that's totally broken for VS 2010. The one-line (7-character) fix described above (change flags += " " to flags += " /STACK:") will take < 5 minutes for you to commit. Thank you!

(0023997) David Cole (manager) 2010-12-14 18:23	Bill, is this still like this in git next and master?

(0028782) Conrad (reporter) 2012-03-02 02:11	The good news: I just downloaded CMake 2.8.7 and Visual Studio 2011 Beta and was happy to see that CMake generally works great with VS 2011! The bad news: This bug still exists. I haven't checked to see if VS 2010 and VS 2011 share the same project file generators, but it's either still a 7-character code fix or perhaps it has now become a 14-character code fix. The fix: change 'flags += " "' to 'flags += " /STACK:"'
