- Policy is WARN by default so projects will build
as they did in 2.4 without user intervention
- Remove CMAKE_LINK_OLD_PATHS variable since it was
never in a release and the policy supercedes it
- Report target creation backtrace in warning message
since policy should be set by that point
- Use a response file when enabled by
CMAKE_<LANG>_USE_RESPONSE_FILE_FOR_OBJECTS
- Enable for C and CXX with cl (MSVC)
- Enable for Fortran with ifort (Intel Fortran)
- Move runtime path ordering out of cmComputeLinkInformation
into its own class cmOrderRuntimeDirectories.
- Create an instance of cmOrderRuntimeDirectories for runtime
path ordering and another instance for dependent library
path ordering.
- Replace CMAKE_DEPENDENT_SHARED_LIBRARY_MODE with explicit
CMAKE_LINK_DEPENDENT_LIBRARY_FILES boolean.
- Create CMAKE_LINK_DEPENDENT_LIBRARY_DIRS boolean.
- Create variables to specify -rpath-link flags:
CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_RPATH_LINK_<LANG>_FLAG
CMAKE_EXECUTABLE_RPATH_LINK_<LANG>_FLAG
- Enable -rpath-link flag on Linux and QNX.
- Documentation and error message updates
- Split IMPORTED_LINK_LIBRARIES into two parts:
IMPORTED_LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES
IMPORTED_LINK_DEPENDENT_LIBRARIES
- Add CMAKE_DEPENDENT_SHARED_LIBRARY_MODE to select behavior
- Set mode to LINK for Darwin (fixes universal binary problem)
- Update ExportImport test to account for changes
- This is purely an implementation improvement. No interface has changed.
- Create cmComputeLinkInformation class
- Move and re-implement logic from:
cmLocalGenerator::ComputeLinkInformation
cmOrderLinkDirectories
- Link libraries to targets with their full path (if it is known)
- Dirs specified with link_directories command still added with -L
- Make link type specific to library names without paths
(name libfoo.a without path becomes -Wl,-Bstatic -lfoo)
- Make directory ordering specific to a runtime path computation feature
(look for conflicting SONAMEs instead of library names)
- Implement proper rpath support on HP-UX and AIX.
