The value must be either a full path or relative to the configuration
directory, not relative to the 'static' directory. Use a full path.
This avoids a warning:
WARNING: favicon file 'cmake-favicon.ico' does not exist
It worked before because all 'static' directory content is copied to the
'_static' directory of html output anyway.
Explicitly invoke python script through the interpreter since
windows does not act on hashbangs.
Use the found qcollectiongenerator executable rather than what
happens to be in PATH.
Add identifiers for variables, properties, policies and modules.
This will allow QtCreator to show relevant documentation if it learns
more about the context of the contents of cmake files.
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.
In the domain clear_doc method, avoid removing entries from a dictionary
while iterating over it. Instead accumulate a set of entries to remove
at the end.
Assistant in Qt 4.8 does not handle css import paths relative to
the includer. This is fixed in Qt 4.8 commit b95750a275 (Assistant: Set
the url on created QNetworkReply objects., 2014-03-31). It is unknown
whether there will be a further Qt 4.8 release containing that commit.
Use a CMake script to pre-replace the content prior to generating the
qch file. An alternative workaround of moving the files or adding
"_static" to the import path did not seem to work for existing Qt 4.8
versions.
The bug was fixed in the Qt 5 branch before Qt 5.0. The Qt 5 assistant
renders this workaround'ed version correctly too.
Add SPHINX_TEXT to enable the Sphinx 'text' builder. Mark it as
advanced and do not add install rules. This is intended for use
by the release manager to build the release notes in text format
suitable for email.
Configure our Sphinx conf.py with a copyright line extracted from
Copyright.txt instead of using the year in which the documentation is
built. This will future-proof the reported copyright year range when
building documentation for old versions.
Add the man page description line as explicit markup at the top of each
Help/manual/*.rst file and scan it from conf.py to automatically
generate the man_pages Sphinx configuration value. This reduces the
number of places that need to be changed when a new manual is added.
Include the CTestUseLaunchers module in the standalone build of
Utilities/Sphinx so that it can be built under CTest with the
CTEST_USE_LAUNCHERS option.
When scanning CMake module files for .rst comments, recognize
bracket comments starting in ".rst:" too. For example:
#[[.rst:
Include the bracket comment content terminated by the closing bracket.
Exclude the line containing the bracket if it starts in "#".
Teach the CMakeLib.testRST test to cover multiple bracket lengths
and ending brackets on lines with and without "#".
Update the cmake-developer.7 manual to document the bracket-comment
syntax for .rst documentation.
Generator expressions are supported in many places and are a distinct
concept worthy of their own manual page. The old builtin documentation
was previously represented by preprocessor macros to generate it into
each place that supports them. Factor out the duplicate content into a
dedicated cmake-generator-expressions manual page and reference it from
each original location.
Add a Utilities/Sphinx directory to hold CMake build code to run the
Sphinx (sphinx-doc.org) documentation generation tool. Create a
CMakeLists.txt file there capable of building either as a subdirectory
of the main CMake build, or as a standalone documentation build.
Add cache options SPHINX_MAN and SPHINX_HTML to select output formats
and SPHINX_EXECUTABLE to specify the sphinx-build executable. Add
bootstrap options --sphix-man and --sphinx-html to select output formats
and --sphinx-build=<sb> to specify the sphinx-build executable.
Create a "conf.py.in" file to configure_file into "conf.py" to tell
sphinx-build how to build our documents. Create a "cmake.py" Sphinx
extension module defining:
* The "cmake-module" directive used in Help/module/*.rst files to
scan .rst markup from the corresponding Modules/*.cmake file.
* A Sphinx domain called "cmake" defining documentation object types
for CMake Help/<type> directories: command, generator, manual,
module, policy, prop_*, and variable. Add a "role" for each type
to perform cross-references. Teach the roles to treat "<XYZ>"
as placeholders instead of explicit targets if not preceded by
a space. Add cmake domain directives to define command and
variable objects explicitly in .rst file content. This will
allow modules to define their own commands and variables and
have them indexed and linkable.
* A Sphinx document transform that converts Help/<type>/*.rst documents
into cmake domain objects of the corresponding <type> and adds index
entries for them. This will automatically index all CMake documentation
objects and provide cross-reference targets for them with no special
markup in the .rst files.
