When CMP0003 was first introduced we wanted to link all libraries by
full path. However, some projects had problems on platforms where
find_library would find /usr/lib/libfoo.so when the project really
wanted to link to /usr/lib/<arch>/libfoo.so and had been working by
accident because pre-CMP0003 behavior used -lfoo to link.
We first tried to address that in commit v2.6.0~440 (Teach find_library
to avoid returning library paths in system directories, 2008-01-23) by
returning just "foo" for libraries in implicit link directories. This
caused problems for projects expecting find_library to always return a
full path. We ended up using the solution in commit v2.6.0~366 (...
switch library paths found in implicit link directories to use -l,
2008-01-31). However, the special case for libraries in implicit link
directories has also proven problematic and confusing.
Introduce policy CMP0060 to switch to linking all libraries by full path
even if they are in implicit link directories. Explain in the policy
documentation the factors that led to the original approach and now to
this approach.
c37cf7fa cmCacheManager: Remove unused method
64556e3d cmCacheManager: Remove unused overloads.
23bb5d22 cmCacheManager: Remove use of intermediate overload.
510562e3 cmGlobalGenerator: Don't fetch the cache manager in a loop.
629e9489 cmake: Clear member rather than explicit erase.
d280bae9 cmake: Be clear that there is no chaining after global properties.
364c7ea1 cmake: Remove unused method.
47acfe1d cmake: Remove unused member.
a469bf7b cmMakefile: Remove one wrong and one insufficiently helpful comment.
257c1649 cmListFile: Remove unused member.
fe17092c cmMakefile: Remove bogus comment.
199b28ac Remove duplicate tag name.
RPM, DEB and archive packages were not created
in cases when CPACK_<generator>_COMPONENT_INSTALL
was set to ON and a single component existed.
Patch also changes CPackRPM test to implicitly
test for this case.
XAML files are by default of type Page in the vcxproj and can be
overriden by setting the VS_XAML_TYPE property. The .cpp and .h file
of the same name are automatically added as depending on the XAML file.
New VSXaml test builds a basic XAML WindowsStore 8.1 app with VS2013.
Otherwise an #include directive on the first line of a source file is
ignored if the file contains a Byte-Order-Mark.

Add policy CMP0059 to cover this change. The property has been
deprecated since CMake 2.4 anyway.
This will help clean up cmMakefile -- the DefineFlagsOrig member should
not need to exist.
In cpack we load the platform information modules to give the
configuration scripts access to the host system information.
CYGWIN.cmake warns unless we explicitly tell it not to warn
since there is no chance for a cmake_minimum_required(VERSION)
to be called.
The CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM selected by CMake while configuring the project
should also be used to drive the "preinstall" target during packaging.
Teach CPack to use "cmake --build" instead of constructing the build
command line itself. The "cmake --build" command already knows how
to select the proper make tool.
Add .DELETE_ON_ERROR to the "build.make" files that contain the actual
build rules that generate files. This tells GNU make to delete the
output of a rule if the recipe modifies the output but returns failure.
This is particularly useful for custom commands that use shell
redirection to produce a file.
Do not add .DELETE_ON_ERROR for Borland or Watcom make tools because
they may not tolerate it and would not honor it anyway. Other make
tools that do not understand .DELETE_ON_ERROR will not be hurt.
