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.
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.
CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR is not guaranteed to be defined (per
http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_Cross_Compiling), and when cross
compiling where it happens to be undefined, this module was broken.

Previously only the CMAKE_{C,CXX}_FLAGS_<CONFIG> flags were inspected
for relevant flags when compiling the intermediate link file. We need
to also consider the configuration agnostic flags, CMAKE_{C,CXX}_FLAGS
as well.
AppleClang does not support the cxx_thread_local feature, even
though it is based on a Clang version which does support the
feature.

A possible reason for that is that thread_local might be used as
a variable in existing Apple SDK headers.
Extend the WriteCompilerDetectionHeader module to generate a define
for that feature with portability fallbacks. For the avoidance of
making it easy to write code which looks correct but which has odd
runtime behavior, don't set the define symbol at all if no
equivalent keyword is known.
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This fixes the guess originally made by commit b6b37e30 (Makefile: Add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.
