Since https is almost ubiquitous nowadays we should support it by
default whenever possible. When building our own curl, we already
automatically enable SSL/TLS support on Windows and OS X by using the
OS-native APIs. On UNIX platforms we need to use OpenSSL but have not
done so by default before, leading to possible user confusion when https
transfers fail later. Fix this by searching for OpenSSL quietly and
enabling use of it automatically if it is found.
Do this only on Linux and FreeBSD for now because on other UNIX
platforms (e.g. AIX, HP-UX, SunOS) it seems too easy to find an
OpenSSL that is not compatible with the target compiler.
Create a `CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE` option to specify use
of `add_library(... STATIC ...)` for the generated test project.
This will be useful for cross-compiling toolchains that cannot
link a binary without custom flags or scripts.
The new `%s` format specifier is substituted by file()/string()
`TIMESTAMP` sub-commands with the number of seconds since unix-epoch
(1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC).

The option does not actually participate in argument groups like the
others because it does not actually install anything. Fix the order
in the documentation accordingly.

We deprecated this module in commit v3.5.0-rc1~295^2
(CMakeForceCompiler: Deprecate this module and its macros, 2015-10-19)
in order to determine whether anyone still has use cases that require
it. Indeed we still need to provide a way to work with toolchains that
cannot link binaries without special flags. Remove the deprecation
warnings until we can provide an alternative to the module for this use
case.
Check found libraries version to match user required version.
Protobuf compiler executable version is checked to be aligned with found
libraries, raising a warning message otherwise.
CPACK_* variables expect component name in upper case.
CPACK_RPM_* variables expected component name to be
in same case as component name.
This patch adds support for CPACK_RPM_* variables with
upper case component names to match the convention with
CPACK_* variables and also preserves same case component
names for back compatibility.
The fix in commit v3.5.0-rc1~84^2 (Xcode: Escape all backslashes in
strings, 2015-12-27) is a change in behavior that can break existing
projects that worked around the inconsistency with other generators.
Add a release note to call attention to this change in behavior.
Implementation indicates that at least two components of VERSION must
be specified (see Source/cmCMakeMinimumRequired.cxx.) Therefore the
minor version is not optional.
The COMPATIBLE_INTERFACE_NUMBER_MAX example now sets
INTERFACE_CONTAINER_SIZE_REQUIRED on lib1Version2 and lib1Version3.
Previously set it on lib1Version2 twice and never on lib1Version3.
Previously we did not clearly document that `--target` is only supported
to be specified once. Even worse, specifying it multiple times would
silently ignore any previously specified targets and only build the last
target.
Update the documentation to specify this. Update the implementation to
reject multiple `--target` options to prevent user errors.
Let us take an example of a project that has some tests in a component
that need to be installed into a dedicated test package. The user
expectation is that the result could be achieved by typing the
following:
make
make tests
make install
DESTDIR=/testpkgs make install-tests
However this results in test components in the default installation as
well as the testpkg.
Add an EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL option to the install() command to tell it that
the installation rule should not be included unless its component is
explicitly specified for installation.
Move all development release notes into a new version-specific document:
tail -q -n +3 Help/release/dev/* > Help/release/3.5.rst
git rm -- Help/release/dev/*
except the sample topic:
git checkout HEAD -- Help/release/dev/0-sample-topic.rst
Reference the new document from the release notes index document.
Add a title and intro sentence to the new document by hand.
Imported targets are now the recommended way of dealing with external
library dependencies. Add one for FindPNG and update documentation
accordingly. Also add a test case activated by CMake_TEST_FindPNG.
Since commit v3.4.0-rc1~5^2~1 (VS: Add support for selecting the Windows
10 SDK, 2015-09-30) the VS 2015 generator requires a Windows 10 SDK to
be available when CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION specifies Windows 10 (e.g. when
building on a Windows 10 host). Howewver, it is possible to install VS
2015 without any Windows 10 SDK. Instead of failing with an error
message about the lack of a Windows 10 SDK, simply tolerate this case
and use the default Windows 8.1 SDK. Since building for Windows Store
still requires the SDK, retain the diagnostic in that case.
