CMake wants to query the dependency information for a single file from time to time due to its current structure. And according to @ben.boeckel , the compilation database can't do very well for the files which don't exist during the configuration time. (Maybe @ben.boeckel can add some additional information). For the reason why we need `--p1689-targeted-file-name` and `--p1689-targeted-output` is that `FixedCompilationDatabase` wouldn't generate the input and output entry from the command line. See the inline comments for example. I feel it is easier and simpler to add 2 flags for it. I add the prefix `-p1689` to tell all other users to not use it unintentionally. ================ Comment at: clang/lib/Tooling/CompilationDatabase.cpp:376-378 - CompileCommands.emplace_back(Directory, StringRef(), - std::move(ToolCommandLine), - StringRef()); ---------------- Here: we can find the file path and the output entry are left empty for the FixedCompilationDatabase.
