f73718c9 Features: Enable writing of MSVC compiler feature header.
64c30bdc Features: Record for MSVC C++ 2015 and MSVC C 2010-2015.
225c0ef8 Features: Record for MSVC 2010-2013.
This topic was merged to master prematurely, so remove it.
Notes:
VS2015 and above are the only MSVC versions to support cxx_final, so remove
usages from the tests, and instead only test for cxx_override.
VS2012 and above to conform to cxx_decltype_incomplete_return_types
proposal, but without support for auto return types the dcl.type.simple
example in the proposal doesn't compile.
VS2013 and above to conform to the updated cxx_contextual_conversions proposal,
but VS2010 and above pass the test.
Compilers such as MSVC have no explicit flags to enable C++11 mode,
it just is always on. So only run the link tests with compilers that require
a flag to specify the language version.
Initializer lists are only properly supported in 2015 and above.
Previous Visual Studio releases said they supported initializer lists
but silently produced bad code.
The SunPro Fortran compiler uses "-F" instead of "-E" to request
preprocessing. The output does not go to stdout so use "-o" to
specify the output file.
This fixes the guess originally made by commit b6b37e30 (Makefile: Add
assembly and preprocessed targets for Fortran, 2014-11-05).

b341799e Tests: Fix RunCMake.CompileFeatures test NonValidTarget2 case
Fix capitalization of Qt4_FOUND variable when setting it to false in
this case. This caused find_package(Qt4) to appear successful when it
was not. Note that the legacy QT4_FOUND variable is unconditionally
overwritten at the end of the file with the value of Qt4_FOUND.
If this option is enabled, the test step is created with the
EXCLUDE_FROM_MAIN option, and if TEST_BEFORE_INSTALL is enabled, the
install step does not depend on the test step.
This means that the test step is never executed, unless the test target
is explicitly created by calling ExternalProject_Add_StepTarget, or by
passing it with the STEP_TARGETS option, or with the EP_STEP_TARGETS
directory property.
The FindXerces module was added in commit v3.1.0-rc1~155^2 (FindXerces:
New module to find Apache Xerces-C++, 2014-08-17). However, there are
two implementations of Xerces, one in C++:
http://xerces.apache.org/xerces-c/
and one in Java:
http://xerces.apache.org/xerces-j/
Rename FindXerces to FindXercesC to clarify that it is about the C++
implementation.
While at it, add the missing CMake 3.1 release note about this module.

When compiling the ABI detection test project, do not override
CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS completely. The normally selected value of this
variable may influence how the link is done and may be needed to be
representative of how the calling project will be built. Instead pass a
variable that try_compile will reference as additional flags. Leave
this behavior of try_compile undocumented for now.
Revert the feature added by commit v3.1.0-rc1~420^2~2 (FindOpenGL:
Provide imported targets for GL and GLU, 2014-05-31). Unfortunately it
does not work on Windows because the full path to each library file is
not actually known. The IMPORTED_LOCATION of an imported target must be
a full path, but OPENGL_gl_LIBRARY is just 'opengl32' on Windows because
the actual library file is in some implicit link directory that we may
know know.
More infrastructure will be needed in CMake to allow a name-only
imported library. Until that exists, we will not be able to provide
imported targets in FindOpenGL.
In commit v3.1.0-rc1~640^2~5 (Clean up usage of if(... MATCHES regex)
followed string(REGEX REPLACE regex), 2014-04-06) we accidentally broke
logging of the implicit library detection. Restore use of the
intermediate 'lib' variable so that the log message is constructed
properly.

In commit 079e8469ab (... OpenGL always needs X11 on Unix, 2002-09-05)
the FindOpenGL module was taught to search for X11 as a dependency of
the OpenGL library. This was done without a detailed explanation, and
the dependency should not be explicitly needed because OpenGL headers
should not expose applications to X11 APIs directly.
Unfortunately the only way to know if anything legitimately depends on
this behavior (perhaps in static library cases) is to simply remove it
and wait for issues to be reported. If so, then we can add some kind of
compatibility setting for this later. Add a release note to draw
attention to this change.

Some applications only need the OpenSSL crypto library and want to avoid
linking against the SSL library. Set OPENSSL_CRYPTO_LIBRARY and
OPENSSL_SSL_LIBRARY in the code paths that do not need to find them
separately, and document them publicly. This allows applications to be
more specific when linking against OpenSSL.
