The property cannot be implemented on other generators because the
corresponding native build tools (VS IDE, Xcode, Ninja) all implement
their own `clean` operations that affect all outputs. Document this
limitation.
The -T parameter to CMake may now be specified through cmake-gui via a
new text field in the first-time configure wizard (below the generator
chooser).
The generator factories specify whether or not they support toolsets.
This information is propagated to the Qt code and used to determine if
the selected generator should also display the optional Toolset widgets.

Also add GTK2_TARGETS variable containing all imported targets.
Previously, the GTK2_LIBRARIES variable was filled with the paths to the
libraries, and only the GTK2_XXX_LIBRARY variables contained the imported
targets.
Multiple languages for SLAs and the SLA UI can be added via the CPack
variables CPACK_DMG_SLA_DIR and CPACK_DMG_SLA_LANGUAGES. For each
language defined in the languages variable, CPack will search for
<language>.menu.txt and <language>.license.txt in CPACK_DMG_SLA_DIR.
If the sla directory variable is not defined, the old behaviour using
CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_LICENSE is retained.
This module was added by commit v2.6.0~1489 (...supporting embedded
compilers..., 2007-07-02) to avoid needing to build the compiler id
detection source on toolchains that need special flags or linker files
to produce executables. Since then CMake has learned other ways to
identify such compilers (e.g. passing vendor-specific version flags and
checking for vendor-specific banners in the output). Furthermore, CMake
now detects a lot more than just the compiler id during language
initialization in order to support things like <LANG>_STANDARD and
COMPILE_FEATURES. Therefore CMakeForceCompiler is no longer a viable
approach because it skips such detection.
One remaining challenge to support toolchains that require special
linker files is to build the test for a working compiler, compiler ABI
detection binary, and other try_compile cases. This will have to be
worked out as such cases are encountered.
The change made by commit v3.4.0-rc1~342^2 (Factor an <INCLUDES>
placeholder out of <FLAGS> in rule variables, 2015-07-13) affects an
internal interface. Since it is commonly used by projects anyway, add a
release note covering the change in placeholders.
Starting with sigc++ 2.5.1, c++11 must be enabled in order to use
sigc++. The GTK2::sigc++ imported target will automatically enable the
required build flags in order to build with the version found on the
system.
CMake assumes that a SHARED library compiled on Windows will export a LIB file.
This is not actually the case on Visual C++ if the library does not export any
symbols, and causes incremental builds to break if the user specifies SHARED
anyway. (Users should use MODULE libraries instead.)
Revert commit v3.4.0-rc1~10^2~2 (Features: Disable support for Oracle
SolarisStudio on non-Linux, 2015-09-29) and two follow-up commits.
The support of compile features and language standards on Orcale
SolarisStudio needs more investigation so for CMake 3.4 we should
just act as 3.3 did.
