#[===[.md:
# vcpkg_list
A replacement for CMake's `list()` function, which correctly handles elements
with internal semicolons (in other words, escaped semicolons).
Use `vcpkg_list()` instead of `list()` whenever possible.
```cmake
vcpkg_list(SET <out-var> [<element>...])
vcpkg_list(<COMMAND> <list-var> [<other-arguments>...])
```
In addition to all of the commands from `list()`, `vcpkg_list` adds
a `vcpkg_list(SET)` command.
This command takes its arguments, escapes them, and then concatenates
them into a list; this should be used instead of `set()` for setting any
list variable.
Otherwise, the `vcpkg_list()` function is the same as the built-in
`list()` function, with the following restrictions:
- `GET`, `REMOVE_ITEM`, and `REMOVE_AT` support only one index/value
- `POP_BACK` and `POP_FRONT` do not support getting the value into
another out variable. Use C++ style `GET` then `POP_(BACK|FRONT)`.
- `FILTER` and `TRANSFORM` are unsupported.
See the [CMake documentation for `list()`](https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/list.html)
for more information.
## Notes: Some Weirdnesses
The most major weirdness is due to `""` pulling double-duty as "list of zero elements",
and "list of one element, which is empty". `vcpkg_list` always uses the former understanding.
This can cause weird behavior, for example:
```cmake
set(lst "")
vcpkg_list(APPEND lst "" "")
# lst = ";"
```
This is because you're appending two elements to the empty list.
One very weird behavior that comes out of this would be:
```cmake
set(lst "")
vcpkg_list(APPEND lst "")
# lst = ""
```
since `""` is the empty list, we append the empty element and end up with a list
of one element, which is empty. This does not happen for non-empty lists;
for example:
```cmake
set(lst "a")
vcpkg_list(APPEND lst "")
# lst = "a;"
```
only the empty list has this odd behavior.
## Examples
### Creating a list
```cmake
vcpkg_list(SET foo_param)
if(DEFINED arg_FOO)
vcpkg_list(SET foo_param FOO "${arg_FOO}")
endif()
```
### Appending to a list
```cmake
set(OPTIONS -DFOO=BAR)
if(VCPKG_TARGET_IS_WINDOWS)
vcpkg_list(APPEND OPTIONS "-DOS=WINDOWS;FOO")
endif()
```
### Popping the end off a list
```cmake
if(NOT list STREQUAL "")
vcpkg_list(GET list end -1)
vcpkg_list(POP_BACK list)
endif()
```
