Add utility macro to conditionally print CMake variables
When debugging configuration issues, I often find that it would be helpful to print out a subset of CMake's variables and their values.
I'd like to add a new utility macro that can filter the variables and their values by a regular expression and then print the results. E.g. something like:
blt_print_variables(
[NAME_REGEX <regex_on_variable_names>] # optional
[VALUE_REGEX <regex_on_variable_values>] # optional
[ENV TRUE|FALSE] # optional, include environment variables in results, default is false
)
Here is a simple script to print out all values (without filtering):
get_cmake_property(_variableNames VARIABLES)
list (SORT _variableNames)
foreach (_variableName ${_variableNames})
message(STATUS "${_variableName}=${${_variableName}}")
endforeach()
