OSX Deprecation Warnings CMake

I'm building some code using CMake that should be compiled against the ScriptingBridge.

I'm seeing many tens of thousands of log lines such as:

In file included from /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/Security.framework/Headers/cssmapple.h:30,
                 from /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/Security.framework/Headers/Security.h:25,

The files are being compiled with:

/usr/bin/c++    -I/Users/codebeaker/Projects/watchedit-client-code/src/libwhatsplaying/include -I/Users/codebeaker/Projects/watchedit-client-code/src/libwhatsplaying/../libwatchedit/include    -x objective-c -o CMakeFiles/whatsplaying.dir/src/osx/itunes_scripting_bridge.m.o -c /Users/codebeaker/Projects/watchedit-client-code/src/libwhatsplaying/src/osx/itunes_scripting_bridge.m

/usr/bin/gcc -I/Users/codebeaker/Projects/watchedit-client-code/src/libwhatsplaying/include -I/Users/codebeaker/Projects/watchedit-client-code/src/libwhatsplaying/../libwatchedit/include    -F/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.7.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks  -x objective-c -o CMakeFiles/whatsplaying.dir/src/osx/itunes_scripting_bridge.m.o -c /Users/codebeaker/Projects/watchedit-client-code/src/libwhatsplaying/src/osx/itunes_scripting_bridge.m

Having reviewed the man page for (Clang) gcc on my Mac, there's this which sounds interesting:

       -Fdir
           Add the framework directory dir to the head of the list of directories to be searched for header files.  These directories are interleaved with those
           specified by -I options and are scanned in a left-to-right order.

           A framework directory is a directory with frameworks in it.  A framework is a directory with a "Headers" and/or "PrivateHeaders" directory contained
           directly in it that ends in ".framework".  The name of a framework is the name of this directory excluding the ".framework".  Headers associated with
           the framework are found in one of those two directories, with "Headers" being searched first.  A subframework is a framework directory that is in a
           framework's "Frameworks" directory.  Includes of subframework headers can only appear in a header of a framework that contains the subframework, or in
           a sibling subframework header.  Two subframeworks are siblings if they occur in the same framework.  A subframework should not have the same name as a
           framework, a warning will be issued if this is violated.  Currently a subframework cannot have subframeworks, in the future, the mechanism may be
           extended to support this.  The standard frameworks can be found in "/System/Library/Frameworks" and "/Library/Frameworks".  An example include looks
           like "#include ", where Framework denotes the name of the framework and header.h is found in the "PrivateHeaders" or "Headers"
           directory.

       -iframeworkdir
           Like -F except the directory is a treated as a system directory.  The main effect is to not warn about constructs contained within header files found
           via dir.

Maybe I ought to be looking for -iframework. When building with -iframework on the terminal, manually this completes without any deprecation warnings.

However CMake doesn't support an option to use -framework. From their find_library() documentation:

CMake will use a -framework A, and a -F to link the framework to the target.

I'm looking for any way to have a quiet build. I also have (4x) smaller warnings from OpenSSL'x EVA interface, those I can handle... thanks in advance.

The answer was to use -iframework, probably as this is intended to ignore system level deprecation warnings when you can't resolve them.

Instead I was able to use -Wno-deprecated-declarations, a flag to GCC which is documented and available everywhere. It's reliable, and I include it in my CMake declaration as such:

IF(${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME} MATCHES "Darwin")
  find_and_add_framework(Foundation watchedit)
  find_and_add_framework(Cocoa watchedit)
  find_and_add_framework(AppKit watchedit)
  find_and_add_framework(ScriptingBridge watchedit)
  set_source_files_properties(${sources} PROPERTIES COMPILE_FLAGS
    "-xobjective-c -Wno-deprecated-declarations")
  set_source_files_properties(${sources} PROPERTIES LANGUAGE C)
ENDIF(${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME} MATCHES "Darwin")

For anyone who would benefit, here's the implementation of find_and_add_framework. I'm not sure where I cribbed it from, but it's not my own work:

macro(FIND_AND_ADD_FRAMEWORK fwname appname)
    find_library(FRAMEWORK_${fwname}
        NAMES ${fwname}
        PATHS ${CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT}/System/Library
        PATH_SUFFIXES Frameworks
        NO_DEFAULT_PATH)
    if( ${FRAMEWORK_${fwname}} STREQUAL FRAMEWORK_${fwname}-NOTFOUND)
        MESSAGE(ERROR ": Framework ${fwname} not found")
    else()
        TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(${appname} ${FRAMEWORK_${fwname}})
        # MESSAGE(STATUS "Framework ${fwname} found at ${FRAMEWORK_${fwname}}")
    endif()
endmacro(FIND_AND_ADD_FRAMEWORK)
