although #9621 did not happen anymore with cmake 2.8.0, probably because
GET_PROPERTY(... GLOBAL ...) now makes the result variable empty instead of
simply not touching it, using FUNCTION() instead of MACRO() makes sure that
the _EnabledFeatures variables is always empty before the GET_PROPERTY()
call (and does not still have the old value from the previous call)

1. Add STATUS output "Could NOT find Boost" if boost is not found
which brings FindBoost closer in behavior to most CMake find modules.
2. Add an option: Boost_DETAILED_FAILURE_MSG to output
Boost_ERROR_REASON on a non-REQUIRED find if this
is desired by the developer. This is done because the error messages
are rather long and software with optional Boost dependencies might
not like them showing up by default, especially since this wasn't done
before.
3. Add mention of Boost_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS close to top
of file since this seems to be the most common problem brought
up on the mailing list (maybe people will notice it there)
4. Added additional check for intel compiler which probably isn't
necessary but ultimately should be cleaner if CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_ID
sticks around.
5. Added my name to the Copyright list
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.
The commit "Really fix color check for dependency scanning" disabled
color unless "make COLOR=ON" is specified. This restores the previous
default behavior when CMAKE_COLOR_MAKEFILE is ON while retaining the
previous commit's fix. See issue #9680.
The commit "Fix color check for dependency scanning" was meant to
disable color if CMAKE_COLOR_MAKEFILE was off. It did remove use of the
activation option '--color' but it failed to make the default false when
the option was missing. This commit corrects that. See issue #9680.
The commit "add support for borland run time flag for shared builds"
started using the value of CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_CXX_FLAGS to link
executables because Borland requires some flags both at compile and link
time. This change ended up propagating all the way to the current
Makefile generators and the behavior applies on all platforms.
In general it is incorrect to use these flags to link executables. The
commit "Split Borland compiler information files" re-wrote Borland
support to work without this behavior, so we remove it in this commit.
Patch from Ben Hutchings. See issue #9659.
This commit re-writes Borland compiler build rules. We split the rules
into modern <os>-<id>-<lang> information modules but share a common
macro between languages to avoid duplication.
We also address a bug in the previous rules that would build some target
types against the static Borland runtime and others against the shared
Borland runtime in one build tree. Now we always use the shared runtime
as is the default in the rules for MS tools.
Previously we passed inputs to the decision to each Complex test and let
the test source decide. This commit moves the decision out of the tests
and makes it an option() in their source. This makes it possible to
build the Complex tests from outside the CMake test tree.
This teaches the FindVTK module to use the Config mode of find_package()
to search for VTKConfig in the common case. The old search method based
on find_path() and UseVTK is now used only to search for VTK 4.0.
This approach avoids the need to update the module for each new VTK
version because find_package(VTK) automatically searches "lib/vtk*". It
also addresses issue #9105 since find_package searches lib64 paths too.
When <pkg>_DIR is set to an incorrect version we search again and store
the result in the variable, even if it is <pkg>_DIR-NOTFOUND.
There was a bug in the case when the new search does not find anything
and the old value came from a cache entry with UNINITALIZED type. The
command used to try to load a package configuration file from the last
place searched, and would leave the old wrong value in the entry. This
commit fixes the behavior to avoid trying to load a missing file and to
set the value to <pkg>_DIR-NOTFOUND as expected.
In cmMakefile::AddCacheDefinition we collapse paths specified in PATH or
FILEPATH cache entries originally specified on the command line with
UNINITALIZED type. This commit fixes the logic to avoid collapsing
<var>-NOTFOUND and other false values. The change allows other CMake
code to force a NOTFOUND value on an entry with UNINITALIZED type.
The regex used by CMAKE_PARSE_IMPLICIT_LINK_INFO to detect link lines
should not match lines that happen to have ".../ld.../..." in them. A
linker name should match only as the last component of a path.
See issue #9666.
The commit "Support more special characters in file(STRINGS)" added code
using a 'char' literal as an array index. Some compilers warn about
this because char might be a signed type, leading to negative indices.
We replace the literal with an integer to avoid the warning.
The commits "Teach Fortran compiler identification about the Portland
Group compiler" and "Fix previous change to file(STRINGS) command"
taught file(STRINGS) to recognize the form-feed '\f' character as part
of string literals. The Portland Group Fortran compiler also puts 0x14
bytes at the end of string literals in some cases. We generalize the
previous solution and add the new character in this commit.
This commit teaches the CMAKE_PARSE_IMPLICIT_LINK_INFO function to log
the regex it uses to detect the linker invocation line. The regex is
computed from the CMAKE_LINKER if it is found, so it might change. A
strange value might match the wrong line and cause implicit link info
extraction to fail.
See issue #9666.
This commit teaches the CMAKE_PARSE_IMPLICIT_LINK_INFO function to log
its actions. We store the log in CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log at the top
of the project build tree. This will make diagnosis of implicit link
information parsing problems easier.
