The commit "Fix get_filename_component ABSOLUTE mode" broke REALPATH
treatment of relative paths because it stopped storing the absolute path
in local variable 'filename'. This commit fixes the call to GetRealPath
to use the proper local variable and adds a test.
Some compilers use implicit link options of the form
-lcrt*.o
-lgcc*
-lSystem (on Mac)
-lSystemStubs (on Mac)
that provide system-wide symbols not specific to any language.
These need not be listed explicitly for mixed-language linking.
We teach CMake to remove the above items from the implicit library list
of each language. This change makes it possible to mix GNU compiler
versions in some cases.
We introduce the "CMake.If" test to try out conversion of constants and
variables to boolean values in the if() command. We cover both OLD and
NEW behavior for policy CMP0012.
The regex used by CMAKE_PARSE_IMPLICIT_LINK_INFO to detect link lines
should not match lines that happen to have ".../ld.../..." in them. A
linker name should match only as the last component of a path.
See issue #9666.
This commit teaches the CMAKE_PARSE_IMPLICIT_LINK_INFO function to log
its actions. We store the log in CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log at the top
of the project build tree. This will make diagnosis of implicit link
information parsing problems easier.
The CMake.File test runs several scripts through "cmake -P" and checks
the output and result against known good values. This commit factors
out the checking code into a separate CMakeCheckTest module. The module
may be used by new tests.
This adds sample linker invocation lines for the Intel compiler on
Linux. In particular, this exercises the case when "ld" appears without
a full path.
The Sun Fortran compiler passes -zallextract and -zdefaultextract to the
linker so that all objects from one of its archives are included in the
link. This teaches the implicit options parser to recognize the flags.
We need to pass them explicitly on C++ link lines when Fortran code is
linked.
The commit "Avoid case change in ImplicitLinkInfo test" did not change
all of the paths to mingw, so some case change still occurs. This
changes more of them.
Since "get_filename_component(... ABSOLUTE)" retrieves the actual case
for existing paths on windows, we need to use an obscure path for mingw.
Otherwise the test can fail just because the case of the paths changes.
This tests the internal CMakeParseImplicitLinkInfo.cmake module to
ensure that implicit link information is extracted correctly. The test
contains many manually verified examples from a variety of systems.
This moves the version numbers into an isolated configured header so
that not all of CMake needs to rebuild when the version changes.
Previously we had spaces, dashes and/or the word 'patch' randomly chosen
before the patch number. Now we always report version numbers in the
traditional format "<major>.<minor>.<patch>[-rc<rc>]".
We still use odd minor numbers for development versions. Now we also
use the CCYYMMDD date as the patch number of development versions, thus
allowing tests for exact CMake versions.
This patch from Philip Lowman creates a REALPATH mode in the
get_filename_component command. It is like ABSOLUTE, but will also
resolve symlinks (which ABSOLUTE once did but was broken long ago).
See issue #8423.
The patch used to fix this bug used SystemTools::GetRealPath which works
only for existing files. It broke the case of using the command
get_filename_component for a non-existing file. Also, it changed
long-standing behavior in a possibly incompatible way even for existing
files. This reverts the original fix and instead updates the
documentation to be consistent with the behavior.
- Previously the find_* commands did not normalize the search paths
- The recent refactoring enabled such normalization
- The FindBase test must also normalize before comparing paths
