When installing the main export file the install tree may be dirty. If
out-dated per-config files exist they may break the newly installed main
file which when it globs them. This teaches the installation script to
detect when it is about to replace the main export file with a different
one and cleans out any existing per-config files.
New method cmExportInstallFileGenerator::GetConfigImportFileGlob
computes the globbing expression that an installed export file uses to
load its per-configuration support files.
This moves management of the LC_MESSAGES environment variable into an
automatic variable. Previously if an error occurred the original
environment value was not restored. This makes the fix to issue #5936
more robust.
Previously we stored a vector of tests to preserve their order.
Property set/get operations would do a linear search for matching tests.
This uses a map to efficiently look up tests while keeping the original
order with a vector for test file generation.
When CTest detects that a test is running its own executable it
optimizes the test by using an internal instance of cmCTest instead of
creating a new process. However, the internal instance was using cout
and cerr directly. This redirects the output to a string stream to
avoid direct display of the internal test's output.
When CMake 2.4 generates the build tree for CMake itself it asks the
built CMake to install itself using the rules that 2.4 generated. Since
the install rules use undocumented commands that are not compatible from
2.4 to 2.6 we need a special case to avoid failure. This sets a special
indicator variable in the install rules that enables a compatibility
hack to support the old install rule format.
The internal file(INSTALL) command argument parsing used several
booleans with at most one set to true at a time to track argument
parsing state. This refactors it to use one enumeration.
The get_target_property command contained some outdated documentation of
the LOCATION and TYPE properties. This removes it since they are now
documented in the properties list section of the documentation.
Previously we left the LOCATION property undefined for imported targets
since it should no longer be used for non-imported targets. However, in
the case we do not know the name of an available imported configuration,
it is more readable to get the LOCATION property than LOCATION_<CONFIG>
for a bogus configuration <CONFIG>. This enables LOCATION for imported
targets and returns an unspecified available imported configuration.
The FATAL_ERROR to cmake_minimum_required is useful for projects that
require 2.6 to convince CMake 2.4 to error out. This clarifies its
usefulness in the documentation.
When cmake_minimum_required is called with an unknown argument it should
not complain about it if the version specified is in the future. This
allows the proper error to be shown about the current CMake being too
old.
When computing runtime search path ordering a constraint exists when a
file that may be found by the runtime search exists in a directory other
than that containing the desired file. We test whether a potential
conflict is really the same due to a symlink. Recently the change to
cmFindLibraryCommand to load directory content created a case in which
the same-file check would be incorrectly skipped. This avoids skipping
the check.
On Windows the KWSys System package generates escapes for command-line
arguments. This fix enables quoting of the empty string as an argument.
This also adds a test to pass an empty argument to a custom command.
When ctest --build-and-test runs the --test-command its output did not
quote the arguments of the command being tested making it difficult to
read. This adds the quotes. This also changes the wording of the
failure case to not sound like CTest could not run the executable when
in fact it ran and returned failure.
When CTest encounters a test whose executable is the ctest executable
iteslf, it just invokes code inside itself to avoid starting a new
process. This fixes a null-pointer dereference in the logging code of
that case.
The command argument lexer was recently regenerated which erased some
fixes that had been applied directly to the output. This restores the
fixes and adds reminder notes in the generation instructions.
