This reverts commit v3.1.0-rc1~557^2~2 (ClearMatches: Only clear matches
which were actually set, 2014-03-12). The optimization did not track
the match count in the same scope as the variables, allowing possible
inconsistency.
Resolve conflicts in Source/cmIfCommand.cxx, Source/cmMakefile.cxx,
and Source/cmMakefile.h by moving the changes to the new location
of the code involved.
It gets incremented while entering a loop block (e.g. foreach or while)
and gets decremented when leaving the block. Because scope borders for
example at function borders must be taken into account the counter is
put into a stack. With every new scope an empty counter is pushed on the
stack, when leaving the scope the original value is restored.
This will allow easy querying if the break command is properly nested
within a loop scope.

A common idiom in CMake-based build systems is to have custom commands
that generate files not listed explicitly as outputs so that these
files do not have to be newer than the inputs. The file modification
times of such "byproducts" are updated only when their content changes.
Then other build rules can depend on the byproducts explicitly so that
their dependents rebuild when the content of the original byproducts
really does change.
This "undeclared byproduct" approach is necessary for Makefile, VS, and
Xcode build tools because if a byproduct were listed as an output of a
rule then the rule would always rerun when the input is newer than the
byproduct but the byproduct may never be updated.
Ninja solves this problem by offering a 'restat' feature to check
whether an output was really modified after running a rule and tracking
the fact that it is up to date separately from its timestamp. However,
Ninja also stats all dependencies up front and will only restat files
that are listed as outputs of rules with the 'restat' option enabled.
Therefore an undeclared byproduct that does not exist at the start of
the build will be considered missing and the build will fail even if
other dependencies would cause the byproduct to be available before its
dependents build.
CMake works around this limitation by adding 'phony' build rules for
custom command dependencies in the build tree that do not have any
explicit specification of what produces them. This is not optimal
because it prevents Ninja from reporting an error when an input to a
rule really is missing. A better approach is to allow projects to
explicitly specify the byproducts of their custom commands so that no
phony rules are needed for them. In order to work with the non-Ninja
generators, the byproducts must be known separately from the outputs.
Add a new "BYPRODUCTS" option to the add_custom_command and
add_custom_target commands to specify byproducts explicitly. Teach the
Ninja generator to specify byproducts as outputs of the custom commands.
In the case of POST_BUILD, PRE_LINK, and PRE_BUILD events on targets
that link, the byproducts must be specified as outputs of the link rule
that runs the commands. Activate 'restat' for such rules so that Ninja
knows it needs to check the byproducts, but not for link rules that have
no byproducts.
Teach the add_custom_command and add_custom_target commands a new
USES_TERMINAL option. Use it to tell the generator to give the command
direct access to the terminal if possible.
d1b62185 Merge branch 'parent-scope-tests' into variable-pull-failure
5f414cef Revert "cmDefinitions: Don't store parent lookups"
e0c0b1ac test: add a test for PARENT_SCOPE with multiple scopes
064c415d test: add test for PARENT_SCOPE behavior
This reverts commit 5abfde6cb8.
The behaviors associated with implicit pulldown on variable lookup
seriously conflict with the optimizations made in these commits.
Basically, since values were copied upon variable lookup, not just on
PARENT_SCOPE, coupled with PARENT_SCOPE's behavior based on whether the
variable is in the current scope or not causes serious problems with not
storing a value for every variable at every scope.
The commit changed behavior of the following example, among other cases:
function(test_set)
set(blah "value2")
message("before PARENT_SCOPE blah=${blah}")
set(blah ${blah} PARENT_SCOPE)
message("after PARENT_SCOPE blah=${blah}")
endfunction()
set(blah value1)
test_set()
message("in parent scope, blah=${blah}")

Reject the option by default. It will be implemented on a per-generator
basis. Pass the setting into try_compile project generation. Add cache
entry CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM and associated variable documentation to
hold the value persistently.
Add a RunCMake.GeneratorPlatform test to cover basic use cases for the
option. Verify that CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM is empty by default, and
that it is rejected when the generator does not support a user setting.
No call sites pass NULL to the output argument, so take it by
reference to avoid the if(output) conditions. Propagate the
change through the TryCompile APIs that call it.
When CMP0053 is in WARN mode, variables get expanded twice, leaking the
fact that the string was expanded twice and changing behavior. Instead,
suppress variable watches when running the expansion to trigger the
CMP0053 warning.
The ALLOWED_UNKNOWN_VARIABLE_READ_ACCESS access type was switched on an
undocumented variable and its lookup caused an unnecessary performance
impact. Remove it.
Allow setting build properties based on the features available
for a target. The availability of features is determined at
generate-time by evaluating the link implementation.
Ensure that the <LANG>_STANDARD determined while evaluating
COMPILE_FEATURES in the link implementation is not lower than that
provided by the INTERFACE of the link implementation. This is
similar to handling of transitive properties such as
POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE.
Add properties and variables corresponding to CXX equivalents.
Add features for c_function_prototypes (C90), c_restrict (C99),
c_variadic_macros (C99) and c_static_assert (C11). This feature
set can be extended later.
Add a <PREFIX>_RESTRICT symbol define to WriteCompilerDetectionHeader
to conditionally represent the c_restrict feature.
Introduce a new implementation of ExpandVariablesInString and select
between the old and new implementations based on policy CMP0053.
Instead of cmCommandArgumentParserHelper, use a custom parser with our
own stack. This is much faster and works well for our simple grammar.
The new behavior of CMP0053 should expand @VAR@ syntax only in certain
contexts. All existing EVIS callers use "replaceAt == true" so
hard-code our call to the old implementation. Update the signature to
default to "replaceAt == false" and pass "replaceAt == true" explicitly
in the call sites for configure_file and string(CONFIGURE).
Testing the configure (no generate) step with ParaView shows ~20%
performance improvement.
In terms of complete configure/generate steps, further testing with
ParaView shows a 20% performance improvement over 2.8.12.2 with Unix
Makefiles and minimal with Ninja. Ninja is less because it generate step
is the expensive part (future work will address this) by a long shot and
these changes help the configure step for the most part.
3f517522 StoreMatches: Minor cleanups
ef62fbad ClearMatches: Store match variable names statically
f718b30a ClearMatches: Only clear matches which were actually set
ClearMatches was clearing many variables which were never set in the
first place. Instead, store how many matches were made last time and
only clear those. It is moved to the cmMakefile class since it is a
common utility used by multiple commands.
Users of the new target_compile_features command are expected to
check the existence of the CMAKE_CXX_COMPILE_FEATURES variable before
attempting to use it to require features.
Expect cxx_variadic_templates to implement N2555.
N2555 is essentially a bugfix and predates most compiler releases which
aimed to experimentally support variadic templates.
Record the availability of this feature for GNU 4.8 on (UNIX AND
NOT APPLE) only. In the future, availability can be recorded for
earlier GNU, for other platforms and for other compilers. Initially
the affected configurations are as restricted as possible to allow
for easy testing while extending the features vector in only one
dimension.
The error message when using the set_property API directly is not
very good, but follow up commits will provide origin debugging of
the property and a target_compile_features command which will
provide a configure-time backtrace when possible.
Use the contents of it to upgrade the CXX_STANDARD target property,
if appropriate. This will have the effect of adding the -std=c++11
compile flag or other language specification on GNU when that is
needed for the feature.

...
This method was added in a commit based on a release branch that
pre-dated the std::string API changes. Port the implementation to use
the string APIs instead of c_str().
These policies are triggered by the use of a particular compiler rather
than outdated CMake code in a project. Avoid warning in every project
that enables a language by not displaying the policy warning by default.
Add variable CMAKE_POLICY_WARNING_CMP<NNNN> to control the warning
explicitly; otherwise enable the warning with --debug-output or --trace.
This breaks with strict policy convention because it does not provide
developers with any warning about the behavior change by default.
Existing projects will continue to build without a warning or change in
behavior. When a developer changes the minimum required version of
CMake in a project to a sufficiently high value (3.0), the project will
suddenly get the new compiler id and may break, but at least the
breakage comes with a change to the project rather than the version of
CMake used to build it.
Breaking strict policy convention is worthwhile in this case because
very few projects will be affected by the behavior change but every
project would have to see the warning if it were enabled by default.
