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names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.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 14a8d61f (cmMakefile: Port nested error logic away from
cmExecutionStatus) we fail to continue processing function and macro
bodies after non-fatal errors. A non-fatal error should not stop
foreach loops, macro bodies, nested bodies, or the outer script.
Add a test covering these cases, and revert the change to fix them.
Also revert commit 2af853de (cmMakefile: Simplify IssueMessage
implementation) because the assertion it added (which was removed by the
above commit and is restored by reverting it) is incorrect. We do have
code paths that call cmMakefile::IssueMessage with an empty execution
stack, such as in CheckForUnusedVariables's LogUnused call.
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/clang-format.bash` script to update
all our C++ code to a new style defined by `.clang-format`.
Use `clang-format` version 3.8.

operation starting at the parent of this commit to see older history

* See the parent commit for instructions to rebase a change across this
style transition commit.
Sort include directives within each block (separated by a blank line) in
lexicographic order (except to prioritize `sys/types.h` first). First
run `clang-format` with the config file:
---
SortIncludes: false
...
Commit the result temporarily. Then run `clang-format` again with:
---
SortIncludes: true
IncludeCategories:
- Regex: 'sys/types.h'
Priority: -1
...
Commit the result temporarily. Start a new branch and cherry-pick the
second commit. Manually resolve conflicts to preserve indentation of
re-ordered includes. This cleans up the include ordering without
changing any other style.
Use the following command to run `clang-format`:
$ git ls-files -z -- \
'*.c' '*.cc' '*.cpp' '*.cxx' '*.h' '*.hh' '*.hpp' '*.hxx' |
egrep -z -v '(Lexer|Parser|ParserHelper)\.' |
egrep -z -v '^Source/cm_sha2' |
egrep -z -v '^Source/(kwsys|CursesDialog/form)/' |
egrep -z -v '^Utilities/(KW|cm).*/' |
egrep -z -v '^Tests/Module/GenerateExportHeader' |
egrep -z -v '^Tests/RunCMake/CommandLine/cmake_depends/test_UTF-16LE.h' |
xargs -0 clang-format -i
This selects source files that do not come from a third-party.

This code used to convert std::string's to raw C strings only to
put that back into a std::string. This patch thus removes ~70k
temporary allocations when running the CMake daemon on KDevelop.
This hotspot was found with heaptrack.
The cmListFileArgument currently stores a FilePath for use in this
method. The filename is the same as the CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_FILE,
except if executing a macro or function defined in another file.
Set the context filename when expanding the arguments of macros and
functions using the filename recorded when defining the prototype.
It can make sense to declare objects outside of loops if
the size required by the object can grow (eg std::string when
using getline), but that is not the case here.
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.
