CPack IFW generator updates:
- Group now can have script;
- Root package (for monolithic or one package installers) can be
configured from group.
CMake updates:
- Native installation (no Unspecified component).
Split the monolithic cmCPackIFWGenerator source into three parts:
cmCPackIFWGenerator, cmCPackIFWInstaller, and cmCPackIFWPackage
to isolate the implementations somewhat.
Add a COMMON option to the cpack_ifw_configure_component command to make
the data component common to its parent group.
Change the default packaging method to ONE_PACKAGE_PER_COMPONENT.
This is not incompatible because the CPack IFW generator has not
yet been in a release.
Since commit 6557382d (stringapi: Use strings for program
paths, 2014-02-24), cmGlobalGenerator::GenerateBuildCommand
takes the make program path as a std::string. Fix the lookup
in cmCPackGenerator::InstallProjectViaInstallCMakeProjects to
use GetSafeDefinition for CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM to avoid possible
construction of std::string from a NULL.

Changing all categories with LC_ALL causes test failures in some locales.
For example, in some locales, the decimal characer could be a comma instead of period.
Teach set_property and get_property an "INSTALL" property type to be
associated with install-tree file paths. Make the properties available
to CPack for use during packaging. Add a "prop_inst" Sphinx domain
object type for documentation of such properties.
Add a CPACK_DEBIAN_COMPRESSION_TYPE option to set the compression type.
Default to 'gzip' to preserve existing behavior. Use "cmake -E tar"
for 'gzip', 'bzip2', and 'none'. Use system "tar" for 'lzma' and 'xz'.
Use the clang RemoveCStrCalls tool to automatically migrate the
code. This was only run on linux, so does not have any positive or
negative effect on other platforms.
Casts from std::string -> cmStdString were high on the list of things
taking up time. Avoid such implicit casts across function calls by just
using std::string everywhere.
The comment that the symbol name is too long is no longer relevant since
modern debuggers alias the templates anyways and the size is a
non-issue since the underlying methods are generated since it's
inherited.
Most of these are turned into strings in the body of the method
(multiple times in some cases). Accept strings to simplify the API and
keep string construction down.
Added a new variable CPACK_WIX_PATCH_FILE that users can point at an
XML patch file. Fragments defined within the patch file will be inserted
at supported insertion points (currently Component, File and Directory).
Creates a hierarchy of WiX features from CPack components and component groups.
Switch to the FeatureTree UI in case components have been defined.
Handles the component REQUIRE and HIDDEN options
and the component group EXPANDED option.
All cmGlobalGenerator::GenerateBuildCommand call sites that need to
produce a string now generate "cmake --build" commands. The remaining
call sites immediately pass the result to cmSystemTools::RunSingleCommand.
Avoid the intermediate string and argument parsing by directly producing a
vector of strings. Also drop the ignoreErrors argument because no call
sites remain that use it.
Rename cmSystemTools::FindExecutableDirectory to FindCMakeResources.
Teach it to compute the locations of cmake, ctest, cpack, ccmake, and
cmake-gui executables, and the location of CMAKE_ROOT. Provide this
information from static cmSystemTools::Get<resource>() methods.
Refactor code that needs these locations to use the new APIs.
Teach FindCMakeResources to use the OS X system API to lookup the
executable location. When running from the CMake build tree itself,
leave a file in the tree that FindCMakeResources can use to read the
location of the source tree. This avoids the need to compile the source
tree location into a binary that may be installed and used without the
source tree.
Teach the QtDialog on OS X to create a "cmake-gui" symlink in the build
tree next to "cmake" and the other tools, as is already done in the
install tree for the application bundle. This ensures a consistent set
of executables are available in one directory.
Make the standard --help-* options available from all command-line
tools. Drop options that are no longer supported:
--copyright, --help-full, --help-html, --help-man,
--help-compatcommands, --help-custom-modules
De-duplicate Help/manual/*.1.rst help options by using an
OPTIONS_HELP.txt file included from each manual.
Drop all DefineProperty calls for non-chained properties. Drop the
documentation from the chained ones. The documentation for all
properties is now in Help/prop_*/*.rst files.
We will no longer support full documentation generation from executables
and will instead generate documentation with other tools. Disable (with
a warning left behind) the command-line options:
--copyright
--help-compatcommands
--help-full
--help-html
--help-man
Drop supporting code. Drop manual sections generation from executables.
Remove internal documentation construction APIs. Drop unused sections

bf23891 CPackWIX: Add support for custom WiX templates

8c0e325 CPackWIX: Handle CPACK_PACKAGE_EXECUTABLES (#13967)
WiX provides a lot of functionality for installers that cannot be
supported (easily) in the default WIX.template.in file.
For most users, the default template should be fine. However if users
want to produce merge modules, include custom actions, etc, this new
option allows for a hook into how the wxs is produced.
Extend the cmGlobalGenerator::GenerateBuildCommand virtual method
signature with a "projectDir" parameter specifying the top of the
project build tree for which the build command will be generated.
Populate it from call sites in cmGlobalGenerator::Build where a
fully-generated build tree should be available.
Only check a release version for the minimum required version. If NSIS
returns a CVS build version string (as when built by Macports), skip the
version check altogether and assume a sufficiently new version. Also
correctly handle the case where the version check fails and the
CPACK_TOPLEVEL_DIRECTORY option is not set.

Remove the old "nocwd" behavior that attempts to provide the "--help"
output when no working directory is available. The long help output
scrolls the real error message out of typical terminal sizes. Also
execute as little code as possible when no working directory exists.
...revealed by the Nightly dashboard runs last night.
Use "size_t" instead of "std::size_t" so that it compiles with
Visual Studio 6, too.
Fix warnings about shadowed "tmp" local variable and ordering of
member variables vs. lines of code in the constructor initializer
list.
Use same technique here with UuidToString as already found in
cmGlobalVisualStudio7Generator::CreateGUID to avoid using a type
that is not defined on older systems... (VS 7.0 and Borland)
This new CPack generator produces an *.msi installer file.
Requires having the WiX Toolset installed in order to work
properly.
Download the WiX Toolset installer "WiX36.exe" here:

This is for consistency throughout cmake. The cmsys version exists
becaues uses of auto_ptr types as return types does not work with
some implementations in ancient compilers.
