Brad King cb185d93d2 Fix if() command and CMP0012 OLD/NEW behavior
The commit "modified the if command to address bug 9123 some" changed
the if() command behavior with respect to named boolean constants.  It
introduced policy CMP0012 to provide compatibility.  However, it also
changed behavior with respect to numbers (like '2') but did not cover
the change with the policy.  Also, the behavior it created for numbers
is confusing ('2' is false).

This commit teaches if() to recognize numbers again, and treats them
like the C language does in terms of boolean conversion.  We also fix
the CMP0012 check to trigger in all cases where the result of boolean
coersion differs from that produced by CMake 2.6.4.

Brad King 9a77f65da7 Remove CMake Policy CMP0015 until it is revised
We revert commit "Create CMake Policy CMP0015 to fix set(CACHE)" because
the NEW behavior of the policy breaks a valid use case:

  # CMakeLists.txt
  option(BUILD_SHARED_LIBS "..." ON)
  add_library(mylib ...)
  set(BUILD_SHARED_LIBS OFF) # we want only mylib to be shared
  add_subdirectory(ThirdParty)

  # ThirdParty/CMakeLists.txt
  option(BUILD_SHARED_LIBS "..." ON)
  # uh, oh, with NEW behavior this dir uses shared libs!!!

We'll re-introduce the policy later with a different change in behavior
to resolve the motivating case, which was more subtle but less common.

See issue #9008.

Brad King 3d3efbd3f5 Clarify documentation and message for CMP0012
This commit re-words the warning message produced for CMP0012 to avoid
the word 'you' since often the person reading the message is not the
author of the code.  We also add an example of the bad OLD behavior to
the policy documentation.

Brad King 5837f4a613 Fix documentation of CMP0012 and CMP0013 versions
These policies were originally developed during the 2.7.x series and
intended for 2.6.5.  There was never a 2.6.5 release, so we should refer
to 2.8.0 instead.

Brad King 9c626d8f68 Policies 14 and 15 will be first released in 2.8.0
CMake policies CMP0014 and CMP0015 were implemented in the development
series version 2.7.x but will be first released in 2.8.0.  Now that the
development version number is higher than that (2.9.x) we can update
their version of introduction to the actual release number.

Brad King 528097c794 Document full version number with policy default
In CMake Policy documentation we specify the default behavior for the
current version of CMake.  This commit fixes that version by reporting
the full version number instead of just major and minor.

Brad King b41a548d86 Add parentheses around '&&' between '||' for gcc
The GNU compiler warns about possible operator precedence mistakes and
asks for explicit parentheses (-Wparentheses).  We add the parentheses
to silence the warning.  This also fixes one real logic error in the
find_package() implementation by correcting expression evaluation order.

Brad King ee2b446c95 Create CMake Policy CMP0015 to fix set(CACHE)
The set(CACHE) and option() commands should always expose the cache
value.  Previously we failed to expose the value when it was already set
if a local variable definition hid it.  When set to NEW, this policy
tells the commands to always remove the local variable definition to
expose the cache value.  See issue #9008.

Brad King e308621382 Create CMP0014 to require CMakeLists.txt files
Until now CMake accidentally accepted add_subdirectory() and subdirs()
calls referring to directories that do not contain a CMakeLists.txt
file.  We introduce CMake Policy CMP0014 to make this case an error.

Brad King 36366beb62 ENH: Improve CMP0012 doc and message formatting
This fixes the CMP0012 description to have a one-line summary in the
'brief' section and the rest of the explanation in the 'full' section.
It makes the warning message shorter and improves formatting of the
policy documentation, especially in the HTML pages.  The convention is
already used by all other policies.

Brad King c790b1fabb ENH: Create CMP0013 to disallow duplicate dirs
In CMake 2.6.3 and below we silently accepted duplicate build
directories whose build files would then conflict.  At first this was
considured purely a bug that confused beginners but would not be used in
a real project.  In CMake 2.6.4 we explicitly made it an error.

However, some real projects took advantage of this as a "feature" and
got lucky that the subtle build errors it can cause did not occur.
Therefore we need a policy to deal with the case more gracefully.
See issue #9173.

Brad King c332e0bf3c ENH: Isolate policy changes in included scripts
Isolation of policy changes inside scripts is important for protecting
the including context.  This teaches include() and find_package() to
imply a cmake_policy(PUSH) and cmake_policy(POP) around the scripts they
load, with a NO_POLICY_SCOPE option to disable the behavior.  This also
creates CMake Policy CMP0011 to provide compatibility.  See issue #8192.

Brad King d524f3675e ENH: Improve argument parsing error messages
Previously error messages produced by parsing of command argument
variable references, such as bad $KEY{VAR} syntax or a bad escape
sequence, did not provide good context information.  Errors parsing
arguments inside macro invocations gave no context at all.  Furthermore,
some errors such as a missing close curly "${VAR" would be reported but
build files would still be generated.

These changes teach CMake to report errors with good context information
for all command argument parsing problems.  Policy CMP0010 is introduced
so that existing projects that built despite such errors will continue
to work.

David Cole bd1935dcd1 ENH: Improve FILE GLOB_RECURSE handling of symlinks with a new CMake policy. CMP0009 establishes NEW default behavior of not recursing through symlinks. OLD default behavior or explicit FOLLOW_SYMLINKS argument to FILE GLOB_RECURSE will still recurse through symlinks. 2008-09-11 14:34:04 -04:00
Brad King f50ed1fd88 ENH: Improve errors when a policy is REQUIRED

when violating the requirements.

Brad King b93f0318fe ENH: Support full-path libs w/out valid names.
This change introduces policy CMP0008 to decide how to treat full path
libraries that do not appear to be valid library file names.  Such
libraries worked by accident in the VS IDE and Xcode generators with
CMake 2.4 and below.  We support them in CMake 2.6 by introducing this
policy.  See policy documentation added by this change for details.

Brad King 067717a56a BUG: Fix compatibility with CMake 2.4 for installation of MACOSX_BUNDLE targets
- Add policy CMP0006 to decide whether to use compatibility

Brad King e3666a1de5 ENH: Allow policy CMP0000 to be set explicitly
- Message for missing cmake_minimum_required is not issued
    until the end of processing the top CMakeLists.txt file
  - During processing a cmake_policy command may set behavior
  - OLD behavior is to silently ignore the problem
  - NEW behavior is to issue an error instead of a warning

Brad King 01033b5d56 ENH: Improve warning about specifying a cmake version

    cmake_minimum_required and not cmake_policy
    so there is only one way to avoid it.
  - Explicitly specify the line users should add.
  - Reference policy CMP0000 only at the end.
  - Fix policy CMP0000 documentation to not suggest
    use of the cmake_policy command.

Brad King d46ff28ac9 ENH: Convert CMAKE_LINK_OLD_PATHS to policy CMP0003.
- Policy is WARN by default so projects will build
    as they did in 2.4 without user intervention
  - Remove CMAKE_LINK_OLD_PATHS variable since it was
    never in a release and the policy supercedes it
  - Report target creation backtrace in warning message
    since policy should be set by that point

Brad King 5233b75a77 ENH: Improve handling of old-style compatibility.
- Remove CMP_0001 (no slash in target name) and restore
    old CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY check for it
  - Replace all checks of CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY
    with cmLocalGenerator::NeedBackwardsCompatibility calls
  - Create new CMP_0001 to determine whether or not
    CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY is used.
    (old = use, new = ignore)
  - Show CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY in cache only when
    CMP_0001 is set to OLD or WARN
  - Update documentation of cmake_policy and cmake_minimum_required
    to indicate their relationship and the 2.4 version boundary
  - When no cmake policy version is set in top level makefile
    implicitly call cmake_policy(VERSION 2.4) which restores
    CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY and other 2.4 compatibility
  - Fix tests MakeClean and Preprocess to call
    cmake_policy(VERSION 2.6) because they depend on new policies

  - Nested errors now unwind the call stack
  - Use new mechanism for policy warnings and errors
  - Improve policy error message
  - Include cmExecutionStatus pointer in call stack
    so that errors deeper in the C++ stack under
    a command invocation will become errors for the
    command
