Per-source copyright/license notice headers that spell out copyright holder
names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.
Precise contributor information is already maintained automatically by the
version control tool. Ultimately it is the receiver of a file who is
responsible for determining its licensing status, and per-source notices are
merely a convenience. Therefore it is simpler and more accurate for
each source to have a generic notice of the license name and references to
more detailed information on copyright holders and full license terms.
Our `Copyright.txt` file now contains a list of Contributors whose names
appeared source-level copyright notices. It also references version control
history for more precise information. Therefore we no longer need to spell
out the list of Contributors in each source file notice.
Replace CMake per-source copyright/license notice headers with a short
description of the license and links to `Copyright.txt` and online information
available from "https://cmake.org/licensing". The online URL also handles
cases of modules being copied out of our source into other projects, so we
can drop our notices about replacing links with full license text.
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/filter-notices.bash` script to perform the majority
of the replacements mechanically. Manually fix up shebang lines and trailing
newlines in a few files. Manually update the notices in a few files that the
script does not handle.
Since commit 14a8d61f (cmMakefile: Port nested error logic away from
cmExecutionStatus) we fail to continue processing function and macro
bodies after non-fatal errors. A non-fatal error should not stop
foreach loops, macro bodies, nested bodies, or the outer script.
Add a test covering these cases, and revert the change to fix them.
Also revert commit 2af853de (cmMakefile: Simplify IssueMessage
implementation) because the assertion it added (which was removed by the
above commit and is restored by reverting it) is incorrect. We do have
code paths that call cmMakefile::IssueMessage with an empty execution
stack, such as in CheckForUnusedVariables's LogUnused call.
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/clang-format.bash` script to update
all our C++ code to a new style defined by `.clang-format`.
Use `clang-format` version 3.8.

The cmListFileArgument currently stores a FilePath for use in this
method. The filename is the same as the CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_FILE,
except if executing a macro or function defined in another file.
Set the context filename when expanding the arguments of macros and
functions using the filename recorded when defining the prototype.
The lexical scope counting added by commit v3.2.0-rc1~332^2~1 (Track
nested loop levels in CMake language with a stack of counters,
2014-11-18) forgot to account for scopes popped by error messages about
unclosed scopes. Teach the error handler to pop the lexical scope it
reports as unclosed. Re-order the lexical scope RAII object to be
inside the variable scope RAII object scope so that the lexical scope
is fully closed before we check assertions about variable scopes.
Extend the RunCMake.Syntax test with a case covering this.
Use the clang RemoveCStrCalls tool to automatically migrate the
code. This was only run on linux, so does not have any positive or
negative effect on other platforms.
- Enhance extract doc parser. Seems robust now. The legacy
module documentation parser works as before ignoring
the new markup.
- Proof of concept for CPack (generic), CPack RPM and CPack Deb
generator for macro and variables.
Try cpack --help-command and cpack --help-variables
From email explaining existence in the first place:
This is from before when the used checks throwing false
positives about unused due to changing the definition without
checking whether it *had* a value to begin with and me not
realizing they were false positives. I was thinking that it was
warning from ARGC et. al. not being used since the previous
macro or function call and the new value warning about
overwriting the old value.
This converts the CMake license to a pure 3-clause OSI-approved BSD
License. We drop the previous license clause requiring modified
versions to be plainly marked. We also update the CMake copyright to
cover the full development time range.
This teaches functions and macros to use policies recorded at creation
time when they are invoked. It restores the policies as a weak policy
stack entry so that any policies set by a function escape to its caller
as before.
If a logical block terminates with mismatching arguments we previously
failed to remove the function blocker but replayed the commands anyway,
which led to cases in which we failed to report the mismatch (return
shortly after the ending command). The recent refactoring of function
blocker deletion changed this behavior to produce an error on the ending
line by not blocking the command. Furthermore, the function blocker
would stay in place and complain at the end of every equal-level block
of the same type.
This teaches CMake to treat the begin/end commands (if/endif, etc.) as
correct and just warns when the arguments mismatch. The change allows
cases in which CMake 2.6.2 silently ignored a mismatch to run as before
but with a warning.
This centralizes construction of the error message for an unclosed
logical block (if, foreach, etc.). We record the line at which each
block is opened so it can be reported in the error message.
This uses an automatic variable to push and pop variable scope inside a
function call. Previously if the function failed its scope would not be
popped. This approach guarantees a balanced push/pop.
- Add cmMakefile methods IssueError and IssueWarning
- Maintain an explicit call stack in cmMakefile
- Include context/call-stack info in messages
- Nested errors now unwind the call stack
- Use new mechanism for policy warnings and errors
- Improve policy error message
- Include cmExecutionStatus pointer in call stack
so that errors deeper in the C++ stack under
a command invocation will become errors for the
command
