The predef script is incorrect. This <
https://github.com/pfultz2/boost-cmake-demo/blob/bcm-test-demo/libs/predef/test/CMakeLists.txt#L25>
is not equivalent to the original <
https://github.com/pfultz2/boost-cmake-demo/blob/bcm-test-demo/libs/predef/test/build.jam#L60>.
As the "-DCHECK_VALUE=true" is not passed to compiler in response to the
evaluation of '"BOOST_COMP_CLANG > 0.0.0" "BOOST_OS_LINUX == 0"'. It needs
to try to compile and run one of the programs from here <
https://github.com/pfultz2/boost-cmake-demo/tree/bcm-test-demo/libs/predef/tools/check>.
The test is verifying that both this <
https://github.com/pfultz2/boost-cmake-demo/blob/bcm-test-demo/libs/predef/tools/check/predef.jam>
and this <
https://github.com/pfultz2/boost-cmake-demo/blob/bcm-test-demo/libs/predef/tools/check/predef_check.h>
work as expected. For cmake you would need still need to test the latter,
still.
