||||
|
||||
Changes made since CMake 3.5 include the following.
|
||||
|
||||
New Features
|
||||
============
|
||||
|
||||
Generators
|
||||
----------
|
||||
|
||||
* The :generator:`Ninja` generator learned to produce phony targets
|
||||
of the form ``sub/dir/all`` to drive the build of a subdirectory.
|
||||
This is equivalent to ``cd sub/dir; make all`` with
|
||||
:ref:`Makefile Generators`.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :generator:`Ninja` generator now includes system header files in build
|
||||
dependencies to ensure correct re-builds when system packages are updated.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :generator:`Visual Studio 14 2015` generator learned to support the
|
||||
Clang/C2 toolsets, e.g. with the ``-T v140_clang_3_7`` option.
|
||||
This feature is experimental.
|
||||
|
||||
Commands
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
* The :command:`add_custom_command` and :command:`add_custom_target` commands
|
||||
learned how to use the :prop_tgt:`CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR` executable
|
||||
target property.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :command:`install` command learned a new ``EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL`` option
|
||||
to leave installation rules out of the default installation.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :command:`list` command gained a ``FILTER`` sub-command to filter
|
||||
list elements by regular expression.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :command:`string(TIMESTAMP)` and :command:`file(TIMESTAMP)`
|
||||
commands gained support for the ``%s`` placeholder. This is
|
||||
the number of seconds since the UNIX Epoch.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :command:`try_compile` command source file signature now honors
|
||||
configuration-specific flags (e.g. :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_DEBUG`)
|
||||
in the generated test project. Previously only the default such flags
|
||||
for the current toolchain were used.
|
||||
|
||||
Variables
|
||||
---------
|
||||
|
||||
* A :variable:`CMAKE_DEPENDS_IN_PROJECT_ONLY` variable was introduced
|
||||
to tell :ref:`Makefile Generators` to limit dependency scanning only
|
||||
to files in the project source and build trees.
|
||||
|
||||
* A new :variable:`CMAKE_HOST_SOLARIS` variable was introduced to
|
||||
indicate when CMake is running on an Oracle Solaris host.
|
||||
|
||||
* A :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_STANDARD_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES` variable was
|
||||
added for use by toolchain files to specify system include directories
|
||||
to be appended to all compiler command lines.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_STANDARD_LIBRARIES` variable is now documented.
|
||||
It is intended for use by toolchain files to specify system libraries to be
|
||||
added to all linker command lines.
|
||||
|
||||
* A :variable:`CMAKE_NINJA_OUTPUT_PATH_PREFIX` variable was introduced
|
||||
to tell the :generator:`Ninja` generator to configure the generated
|
||||
``build.ninja`` file for use as a ``subninja``.
|
||||
|
||||
* A :variable:`CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_PLATFORM_VARIABLES` variable was
|
||||
added for use by toolchain files to specify platform-specific
|
||||
variables that must be propagated by the :command:`try_compile`
|
||||
command into test projects.
|
||||
|
||||
* A :variable:`CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE` variable was added
|
||||
to optionally tell the :command:`try_compile` command to build
|
||||
a static library instead of an executable. This is useful for
|
||||
cross-compiling toolchains that cannot link binaries without
|
||||
custom flags or scripts.
|
||||
|
||||
Properties
|
||||
----------
|
||||
|
||||
* A :prop_tgt:`DEPLOYMENT_REMOTE_DIRECTORY` target property was introduced
|
||||
to tell the :generator:`Visual Studio 9 2008` and
|
||||
:generator:`Visual Studio 8 2005` generators to generate the "remote
|
||||
directory" for WinCE project deployment and debugger settings.
|
||||
|
||||
* A :prop_tgt:`<LANG>_CLANG_TIDY` target property and supporting
|
||||
:variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_CLANG_TIDY` variable were introduced to tell the
|
||||
:ref:`Makefile Generators` and the :generator:`Ninja` generator to run
|
||||
``clang-tidy`` along with the compiler for ``C`` and ``CXX`` languages.
|
||||
|
||||
* A :prop_test:`TIMEOUT_AFTER_MATCH` test property was introduced to
|
||||
optionally tell CTest to enforce a secondary timeout after matching
|
||||
certain output from a test.
|
||||
|
||||
* A :prop_tgt:`VS_CONFIGURATION_TYPE` target property was introduced
|
||||
to specify a custom project file type for :ref:`Visual Studio Generators`
|
||||
supporting VS 2010 and above.
|
||||
|
||||
* A :prop_dir:`VS_STARTUP_PROJECT` directory property was introduced
|
||||
to specify for :ref:`Visual Studio Generators` the default startup
|
||||
project for generated solutions (``.sln`` files).
|
||||
|
||||
Modules
|
||||
-------
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`CMakePushCheckState` module now pushes/pops/resets the variable
|
||||
``CMAKE_EXTRA_INCLUDE_FILE`` used in :module:`CheckTypeSize`.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`ExternalProject` module leared the ``GIT_SHALLOW 1``
|
||||
option to perform a shallow clone of a Git repository.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`ExternalProject` module learned to initialize Git submodules
|
||||
recursively and also to initialize new submodules on updates. Use the
|
||||
``GIT_SUBMODULES`` option to restrict which submodules are initalized and
|
||||
updated.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`ExternalProject` module leared the ``DOWNLOAD_NO_EXTRACT 1``
|
||||
argument to skip extracting the file that is downloaded (e.g., for
|
||||
self-extracting shell installers or ``.msi`` files).
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`ExternalProject` module now uses ``TLS_VERIFY`` when fetching
|
||||
from git repositories.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`FindBLAS` and :module:`FindLAPACK` modules learned to
|
||||
support `OpenBLAS <http://www.openblas.net>`__.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`FindCUDA` module learned to find the ``cublas_device`` library.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`FindGTest` module ``gtest_add_tests`` function now causes
|
||||
CMake to automatically re-run when test sources change so that they
|
||||
can be re-scanned.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`FindLTTngUST` module was introduced to find the LTTng-UST
|
||||
library.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`FindPkgConfig` module learned to optionally create imported
|
||||
targets for the libraries it has found.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`FindProtobuf` module learned to provide a ``Protobuf_VERSION``
|
||||
variable and check the version number requested in a :command:`find_package`
|
||||
call.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`InstallRequiredSystemLibraries` module learned a new
|
||||
``CMAKE_INSTALL_UCRT_LIBRARIES`` option to enable app-local deployment
|
||||
of the Windows Universal CRT libraries with Visual Studio 2015.
|
||||
|
||||
Platforms
|
||||
---------
|
||||
|
||||
* The Clang compiler is now supported on CYGWIN.
|
||||
|
||||
* Support was added for the Bruce C Compiler with compiler id ``Bruce``.
|
||||
|
||||
CTest
|
||||
-----
|
||||
|
||||
* The :command:`ctest_update` command now looks at the
|
||||
:variable:`CTEST_GIT_INIT_SUBMODULES` variable to determine whether
|
||||
submodules should be updated or not before updating.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :command:`ctest_update` command will now synchronize submodules on an
|
||||
update. Updates which add submodules or change a submodule's URL will now be
|
||||
pulled properly.
|
||||
|
||||
CPack
|
||||
-----
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`CPackDeb` module learned how to handle ``$ORIGIN``
|
||||
in ``CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH`` when :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SHLIBDEPS`
|
||||
is used for dependency auto detection.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`CPackDeb` module learned how to generate ``DEBIAN/shlibs``
|
||||
contorl file when package contains shared libraries.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`CPackDeb` module learned how to generate ``DEBIAN/postinst`` and
|
||||
``DEBIAN/postrm`` files if the package installs libraries in
|
||||
ldconfig-controlled locations (e.g. ``/lib/``, ``/usr/lib/``).
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`CPackDeb` module learned how to generate dependencies between
|
||||
Debian packages if multi-component setup is used and
|
||||
:variable:`CPACK_COMPONENT_<compName>_DEPENDS` variables are set.
|
||||
For backward compatibility this feature is disabled by default.
|
||||
See :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_ENABLE_COMPONENT_DEPENDS`.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`CPackDeb` module learned how to set custom package file names
|
||||
including how to generate properly-named Debian packages::
|
||||
|
||||
<PackageName>_<VersionNumber>-<DebianRevisionNumber>_<DebianArchitecture>.deb
|
||||
|
||||
For backward compatibility this feature is disabled by default. See
|
||||
:variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_FILE_NAME` and
|
||||
:variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_FILE_NAME`.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`CPackDeb` module learned how to set the package release number
|
||||
(``DebianRevisionNumber`` in package file name when used in combination with
|
||||
``DEB-DEFAULT`` value set by :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_FILE_NAME`). See
|
||||
:variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_RELEASE`.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`CPackDeb` module learned how to set the package architecture
|
||||
per-component. See :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_ARCHITECTURE`.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`CPackDMG` module learned a new option to tell the CPack
|
||||
``DragNDrop`` generaor to skip the ``/Applications`` symlink.
|
||||
See the :variable:`CPACK_DMG_DISABLE_APPLICATIONS_SYMLINK` variable.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`CPackIFW` module gained a new
|
||||
:command:`cpack_ifw_update_repository` command to update a QtIFW-specific
|
||||
repository from a remote repository.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`CPackRPM` module learned how to set RPM ``dist`` tag as part of
|
||||
RPM ``Release:`` tag when enabled (mandatory on some Linux distributions for
|
||||
e.g. on Fedora).
|
||||
See :variable:`CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_RELEASE_DIST`.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`CPackRPM` module learned how to set default values for owning
|
||||
user/group and file/directory permissions of package content.
|
||||
See :variable:`CPACK_RPM_DEFAULT_USER`, :variable:`CPACK_RPM_DEFAULT_GROUP`,
|
||||
:variable:`CPACK_RPM_DEFAULT_FILE_PERMISSIONS`,
|
||||
:variable:`CPACK_RPM_DEFAULT_DIR_PERMISSIONS` and their per component
|
||||
counterparts.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`CPackRPM` module learned how to set user defined package file
|
||||
names, how to specify that rpmbuild should decide on file name format as
|
||||
well as handling of multiple rpm packages generated by a single user defined
|
||||
spec file.
|
||||
See :variable:`CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_NAME` and
|
||||
:variable:`CPACK_RPM_<component>_PACKAGE_NAME`.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`CPackRPM` module learned how to correctly handle symlinks
|
||||
that are pointing outside generated packages.
|
||||
|
||||
Other
|
||||
-----
|
||||
|
||||
* The :manual:`Compile Features <cmake-compile-features(7)>` functionality
|
||||
is now aware of features supported by Intel C++ compilers versions 12.1
|
||||
through 16.0 on UNIX platforms.
|
||||
|
||||
Deprecated and Removed Features
|
||||
===============================
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`CMakeForceCompiler` module and its macros are now deprecated.
|
||||
See module documentation for an explanation.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :command:`find_library`, :command:`find_path`, and :command:`find_file`
|
||||
commands no longer search in installation prefixes derived from the ``PATH``
|
||||
environment variable on non-Windows platforms. This behavior was added in
|
||||
CMake 3.3 to support Windows hosts but has proven problematic on UNIX hosts.
|
||||
Users that keep some ``<prefix>/bin`` directories in the ``PATH`` just for
|
||||
their tools do not necessarily want any supporting ``<prefix>/lib``
|
||||
directories searched. One may set the ``CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH`` environment
|
||||
variable with a :ref:`;-list <CMake Language Lists>` of prefixes that are
|
||||
to be searched.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :generator:`Visual Studio 7 .NET 2003` generator is now
|
||||
deprecated and will be removed in a future version of CMake.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :generator:`Visual Studio 7` generator (for VS .NET 2002) has been
|
||||
removed. It had been deprecated since CMake 3.3.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :generator:`Visual Studio 6` generator has been removed.
|
||||
It had been deprecated since CMake 3.3.
|
||||
|
||||
Other Changes
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||
* The precompiled OS X binary provided on ``cmake.org`` now requires
|
||||
OS X 10.7 or newer.
|
||||
|
||||
* On Linux and FreeBSD platforms, when building CMake itself from source and
|
||||
not using a system-provided libcurl, OpenSSL is now used by default if it is
|
||||
found on the system. This enables SSL/TLS support for commands supporting
|
||||
network communication via ``https``, such as :command:`file(DOWNLOAD)`,
|
||||
:command:`file(UPLOAD)`, and :command:`ctest_submit`.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :manual:`cmake(1)` ``--build`` command-line tool now rejects multiple
|
||||
``--target`` options with an error instead of silently ignoring all but the
|
||||
last one.
|
||||
|
||||
* :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` now diagnoses name collisions when multiple source
|
||||
files in different directories use ``#include <moc_foo.cpp>`` with the
|
||||
same name (because the generated ``moc_foo.cpp`` files would collide).
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`FindBISON` module ``BISON_TARGET`` macro now supports
|
||||
special characters by passing the ``VERBATIM`` option to internal
|
||||
:command:`add_custom_command` calls. This may break clients that
|
||||
added escaping manually to work around the bug.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`FindFLEX` module ``FLEX_TARGET`` macro now supports
|
||||
special characters by passing the ``VERBATIM`` option to internal
|
||||
:command:`add_custom_command` calls. This may break clients that
|
||||
added escaping manually to work around the bug.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`FindProtobuf` module input and output variables were all renamed
|
||||
from ``PROTOBUF_`` to ``Protobuf_`` for consistency with other find modules.
|
||||
Input variables of the old case will be honored if provided, and output
|
||||
variables of the old case are always provided.
|
||||
|
||||
* The :module:`CPackRPM` module now supports upper cased component
|
||||
names in per component CPackRPM specific variables.
|
||||
E.g. component named ``foo`` now expects component specific
|
||||
variable to be ``CPACK_RPM_FOO_PACKAGE_NAME`` while before
|
||||
it expected ``CPACK_RPM_foo_PACKAGE_NAME``.
|
||||
Upper cased component name part in variables is compatible
|
||||
with convention used for other CPack variables.
|
||||
For back compatibility old format of variables is still valid
|
||||
and preferred if both versions of variable are set, but the
|
||||
preferred future use is upper cased component names in variables.
|
||||
New variables that will be added to CPackRPM in later versions
|
||||
will only support upper cased component variable format.

--------------------------------

E.g. component named ``foo`` now expects component specific

it expected ``CPACK_RPM_foo_PACKAGE_NAME``.
|

Upper cased component name part in variables is compatible

with convention used for other CPack variables.
|

For back compatibility old format of variables is still valid

and preferred if both versions of variable are set, but the
|
||||
preferred future use is upper cased component names in variables.

New variables that will be added to CPackRPM in later versions

will only support upper cased component variable format.
