CMake 3.25 added the SYSTEM directory property one can add to add_subdirectory() and FetchContent_Declare and the SYSTEM target property.
I use a library that has a conflicting compilation flag standard leading to a multitude of warnings leaking from the headers. I would like to emulate or reproduce the directory SYSTEM property. Or at least, silence the warnings, exclusively for the headers of this library (i.e., use something like -isystem). I could use #pragma shenanigans but I’m of the opinion that it should be handled by the build system.
The library producing the warnings is imported using FetchContent_Declare.
Ideally the solution would work with CMake 3.20. It should rely on CMake and not user (me) specified compiler flags.
