Drop all behavior activated by setting CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY to
a value lower than 2.4, and generate an error when projects or the user
attempt to do so. In the error suggest using a CMake 2.8.x release.
Teach cmake_minimum_required to warn about projects that do not require
at least CMake 2.4. They are not supported by CMake >= 3.0.
Replace the documentation of CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY with a
reference to policy CMP0001.
d169b1f Genex: Use cmArraySize for targetPolicyWhitelist
86d5d80 Genex: Remove use of TransitiveWhitelistCompare
73d7705 Add some templates for cleaner array iteration.
Other warnings for the same policy already have similar output since
commit 81d2793e (Add differing target property content to policy CMP0022
warning, 2013-09-11).
Even though this variable gets set to CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER-NOTFOUND when
the compiler is not found, CMake<LANG>Compiler.cmake gets removed by
cmGlobalGenerator::EnableLanguage so in try compiles the value is empty.
Quote references to the variable in
Modules/CMake(C|CXX|Fortran)Information.cmake
Modules/CMakeDetermineCompilerId.cmake
to avoid dropping arguments from commands that expect them.
The cmRST implementation and the list of capabilities documented in the
cmake-developer.7 manual must be kept in sync. Add a note to each file
to reference the other.
Document how CMake uses reStructuredText to provide the help manuals.
Cover supported inline markup and directives, the CMake Domain in
Sphinx, and cross-reference syntax.
Add "Module Documentation" and "Find Modules" subsections. Add to
Modules/readme.txt a textual reference to the cmake-developer.7 manual
and, while at it, fix the wiki URL domain.
Convert the content moved from Modules/readme.txt to valid
reStructuredText markup. Mainly, convert the lists of variables to
definition lists, wrap long lines in paragraph text, and add literal
block markup and indentation.
Move all content from Modules/readme.txt except for the link to the
module maintainers wiki page into "Help/manual/cmake-developer.7.rst".
This produces some invalid reStructuredText markup to be fixed in a
future commit.
Add cmCommand::Disallowed helper to check the setting of a policy that
disallows the command. Add a RunCMake.DisallowedCommands test
placeholder. Add a Help/policy/DISALLOWED_COMMAND.txt file for
inclusion by each policy document to avoid duplication of the common
text.
Teach cmRST to recognize non-markup lines ending in '::' followed by a
blank line as starting a literal block. Record the whole block as if it
were a literal block directive and print it just like a code block.
Extend the CMakeLib.testRST test to cover such cases.
Move the ProcessDirectiveParsedLiteral and ProcessDirectiveCodeBlock
method internals into an OutputMarkupLines helper. Pass through it a
new "inlineMarkup" parameter and teach OutputLine to understand it.
When false, do not process inline markup. Extend the CMakeLib.testRST
test to cover the two cases.
CMake/Source/cmGeneratorExpressionParser.cxx: In member function ‘void cmGeneratorExpressionParser::ParseGeneratorExpression(std::vector<cmGeneratorExpressionEvaluator*>&)’:
CMake/Source/cmGeneratorExpressionParser.cxx:116:55: warning: conversion to ‘unsigned int’ from ‘long int’ may alter its value [-Wconversion]
CMake/Source/cmGeneratorExpressionParser.cxx:240:39: warning: conversion to ‘int’ from ‘long int’ may alter its value [-Wconversion]
Add a string(CONCAT) command to simply concatenate input arguments
together. This will be useful for combining strings from different
quoting syntaxes. Add a RunCMake.string test covering these cases.
Teach the Xcode generator to set 'lastKnownFileType' to be 'folder' for
file references that are directories. If you set 'explicitFileType' to
'sourcecode', then Xcode cannot browse the directory.
Previously if headers required to check the size of a type can be
compiled with C++ compiler only, the check would fail because the C
compiler fails. As a consequence, HAVE_${VARIABLE} would be set to
false, and ${VARIABLE} will be empty.
Teach CHECK_TYPE_SIZE to accept a new optional argument LANGUAGE
that allows one to explicitly set the compiler to use. The new
signature is therefore:
CHECK_TYPE_SIZE(TYPE VARIABLE [BUILTIN_TYPES_ONLY]
[LANGUAGE <language>])
These two target properties serve the same purpose for different versions
of Visual Studio. Document the versions covered by each property.
