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names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.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 v3.6.0-rc1~182^2 (FindOpenSSL: Prefer libs early in search
path regardless of name, 2016-04-04) we use the `NAMES_PER_DIR` option
to `find_library` calls to consider all names in each directory before
moving on to the next directory. Fix our library search directory
ordering to place more-specific (e.g. VC/) directories before the
general directories. Otherwise they may never be considered.
Closes: #16320
Since OpenSSL 1.1.0, Windows binaries are libcrypto and libssl instead of
the old names libeay32 and ssleay32.
When using MSVC, FindOpenSSL was searching for the old lib names only so
this add the new names to be able to find OpenSSL 1.1.0 libraries.
For example, the files in lib directory of OpenSSL 1.1.0 Win64 :
- libcrypto.lib
- libssl.lib
- VC/libcrypto64MD.lib
- VC/libcrypto64MDd.lib
- VC/libcrypto64MT.lib
- VC/libcrypto64MTd.lib
- VC/libssl64MD.lib
- VC/libssl64MDd.lib
- VC/libssl64MT.lib
- VC/libssl64MTd.lib
32 bits OpenSSL has the same files with "32" instead of "64" for files in
VC directory.
MinGW still works and use lib/libcrypto.lib and lib/libssl.lib.
This patch also add libssl and libcrypto for other windows compilers too (like
Intel).
Find modules only detect Debug and Release configurations. All other
configurations will fall back to the configuration listed as the first
entry in `IMPORTED_CONFIGURATIONS`. Switch the order so that `Release`
is listed first, as this is a better fallback than `Debug` for the
`RelWithDebInfo` and `MinSizeRel` configurations. See issue #16091.
This approach is recommended by documentation in `cmake-developer(7)`
added by commit v3.2.0-rc1~286^2~1 (Help: Document IMPORTED_CONFIGURATIONS
target property for Find modules, 2014-12-04).
Add NAMES_PER_DIR to all find_library invocations so that we consider
all possible names in each search directory before moving on to the next
directory. Otherwise we may not find self-built libraries first even if
they appear early in the search path.
Generalize the change made by commit v2.8.10~228^2~4 (FindOpenSSL: find
cross-compiled OpenSSL from MinGW, 2012-07-23) to be used on builds
hosted on Windows too. When building for MinGW, consider library names
that come with MinGW before looking for the main Windows distribution of
OpenSSL.
Add an OPENSSL_USE_STATIC_LIBS option to enable it. Adjust
CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES to only look for .a and .lib files. Also
adjust the search paths on Windows for installer locations of static
libraries.
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.
In commit v2.8.5~176^2~2 (FindOpenSSL: We should only use hints to find
OpenSSL, 2011-03-28) values for HINTS and PATHS of find_* calls were
computed everywhere but only used on Windows. Use them everywhere.
Use of the mis-spelled variable name 'CMAKE_CROSS_COMPILING' was
introduced by commit 4b793ad1 (FindOpenSSL: find cross-compiled OpenSSL
from MinGW, 2012-07-23). Fix the spelling.
Ancient versions of CMake required else(), endif(), and similar block
termination commands to have arguments matching the command starting the
block. This is no longer the preferred style.
Run the following shell code:
for c in else endif endforeach endfunction endmacro endwhile; do
echo 's/\b'"$c"'\(\s*\)(.\+)/'"$c"'\1()/'
done >convert.sed &&
git ls-files -z -- bootstrap '*.cmake' '*.cmake.in' '*CMakeLists.txt' |
egrep -z -v '^(Utilities/cm|Source/kwsys/)' |
egrep -z -v 'Tests/CMakeTests/While-Endwhile-' |
xargs -0 sed -i -f convert.sed &&
rm convert.sed
First this fixes the bug that e.g. version "1.0.0" was shown as "1..". When
pkg-config was used to find OpenSSL the header file was parsed for the version
number even if pkg-config returned it already. Finally we also include the
patch level (i.e. the letter after the version number) in OPENSSL_VERSION.
The FindPackageHandleStandardArgs module was originally created outside
of CMake. It was added for CMake 2.6.0 by commit e118a627 (add a macro
FIND_PACKAGE_HANDLE_STANDARD_ARGS..., 2007-07-18). However, it also
proliferated into a number of other projects that at the time required
only CMake 2.4 and thus could not depend on CMake to provide the module.
CMake's own find modules started using the module in commit b5f656e0
(use the new FIND_PACKAGE_HANDLE_STANDARD_ARGS in some of the FindXXX
modules..., 2007-07-18).
Then commit d358cf5c (add 2nd, more powerful mode to
find_package_handle_standard_args, 2010-07-29) added a new feature to
the interface of the module that was fully optional and backward
compatible with all existing users of the module. Later commit 5f183caa
(FindZLIB: use the FPHSA version mode, 2010-08-04) and others shortly
thereafter started using the new interface in CMake's own find modules.
This change was also backward compatible because it was only an
implementation detail within each module.
Unforutnately these changes introduced a problem for projects that still
have an old copy of FindPackageHandleStandardArgs in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH.
When any such project uses one of CMake's builtin find modules the line
include(FindPackageHandleStandardArgs)
loads the copy from the project which does not have the new interface!
Then the including find module tries to use the new interface with the
old module and fails.
Whether this breakage can be considered a backward incompatible change
in CMake is debatable. The situation is analagous to copying a standard
library header from one version of a compiler into a project and then
observing problems when the next version of the compiler reports errors
in its other headers that depend on its new version of the original
header. Nevertheless it is a change to CMake that causes problems for
projects that worked with previous versions.
This problem was discovered during the 2.8.3 release candidate cycle.
It is an instance of a more general problem with projects that provide
their own versions of CMake modules when other CMake modules depend on
them. At the time we resolved this instance of the problem with commit
b0118402 (Use absolute path to FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake
everywhere, 2010-09-28) for the 2.8.3 release.
In order to address the more general problem we introduced policy
CMP0017 in commit db44848f (Prefer files from CMAKE_ROOT when including
from CMAKE_ROOT, 2010-11-17). That change was followed by commit
ce28737c (Remove usage of CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR now that we have
CMP0017, 2010-12-20) which reverted the original workaround in favor of
using the policy. However, existing project releases do not set the
policy behavior to NEW and therefore still exhibit the problem.
We introduced in commit a364daf1 (Allow users to specify defaults for
unset policies, 2011-01-03) an option for users to build existing
projects by adding -DCMAKE_POLICY_DEFAULT_CMP0017=NEW to the command
line. Unfortunately this solution still does not allow such projects to
build out of the box, and there is no good way to suggest the use of the
new option.
The only remaining solution to keep existing projects that exhibit this
problem building is to restore the change originally made in commit
b0118402 (Use absolute path to FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake
everywhere, 2010-09-28). This also avoids policy CMP0017 warnings for
this particular instance of the problem the policy addresses.
This puts the new search behaviour for included files in action, i.e.
now when a file from Modules/ include()s another file, it also gets the
one from Modules/ included, i.e. the one it expects.
