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.
Since this command was introduced in 2002 it has incorrectly constructed
the child process command line by concatenating arguments separated by
spaces with no quoting. Fix this by passing the command argument vector
directly to RunSingleCommand without an intermediate quoting and
re-parsing step.

Expand the -W set of cmake options to include support for the -Werror
and -Wno-error format, which is used to control upgrading and
downgrading warning and error messages. Implement support for these new
formats for the dev and deprecated message types.
Add tests and updated documentation for new options.
Drop the 'UNIX' condition on Clang compiler features. This enables
use of compile features with MinGW Clang, though additional work may
be needed for clang-cl.

The behaviour of double specified keywords is rather undefined or at
least not clearly documented. This change introduces a strict check and
emits a warning in case a keyword has been specified more than once.
Implement a native `cmake_parse_arguments` command that is fully
compatible with the documented behaviour of the previous implementation.
Leave the CMakeParseArguments module empty but existing for
compatibility.
This patch solves the problem of installing both: Device and Simulator
libraries on iOS. Before only one of them was installed.
If the IOS_INSTALL_COMBINED property is set on a target, a
special install hook will be activated which builds the corresponding
target and combines both at the install location.
The original patch was contributed by Ruslan Baratov, and polished by
Gregor Jasny.
Create a new dialog window for the cmake-gui that provides controls for
setting the state of suppression of developer and deprecated warning
messages. This replaces the previous single checkbox for setting the
state of suppression of developer warnings.
Added a note for the new functionality to the release notes.
- Add TIFF::TIFF imported target
- Document imported target
- Add testcase to test the standard variables and the imported
target
Also:
- Add TIFF_INCLUDE_DIRS to match common practice
- Update documentation generally, including documenting
TIFF_INCLUDE_DIRS
If multiple input files are provided then the destination must be a
directory. If only one input file is provided then destination may be
either a file or directory.
A typical iOS application bundle (also Framework Bundle) contains the
application executable and any resources used by the application (for
instance, the application icon, other images, and localized content) in
the top-level bundle directory. The same rule applies to Framework
Bundles.
Explicitly enable deprecated warnings by default, via the
cmake::GetSuppressDeprecatedWarnings method, which signals
suppression is turned off unless the CMake variables are set
as required.
Add tests and update the documentation for the new
functionality.
Change the '-Wdev' and '-Wno-dev' options to also enable and
suppress the deprecated warnings output, via the
'CMAKE_WARN_DEPRECATED' CMake variable, by default. This
action does not happen if the user specifies a deprecated
warning message option.
Add tests and update the documentation for the new
functionality.
Make the documentation for the 'CMAKE_ERROR_DEPRECATED' CMake
variable consistent with the documentation for the
'CMAKE_WARN_DEPRECATED' CMake variable, in terms of wording.
Add 'deprecated' warning options type, to allow setting
CMAKE_WARN_DEPRECATED via the -W '-Wdeprecated' and
'-Wno-deprecated' options.
Add tests for new options and updated documentation.
The property cannot be implemented on other generators because the
corresponding native build tools (VS IDE, Xcode, Ninja) all implement
their own `clean` operations that affect all outputs. Document this
limitation.
The -T parameter to CMake may now be specified through cmake-gui via a
new text field in the first-time configure wizard (below the generator
chooser).
The generator factories specify whether or not they support toolsets.
This information is propagated to the Qt code and used to determine if
the selected generator should also display the optional Toolset widgets.

Also add GTK2_TARGETS variable containing all imported targets.
Previously, the GTK2_LIBRARIES variable was filled with the paths to the
libraries, and only the GTK2_XXX_LIBRARY variables contained the imported
targets.
Multiple languages for SLAs and the SLA UI can be added via the CPack
variables CPACK_DMG_SLA_DIR and CPACK_DMG_SLA_LANGUAGES. For each
language defined in the languages variable, CPack will search for
<language>.menu.txt and <language>.license.txt in CPACK_DMG_SLA_DIR.
If the sla directory variable is not defined, the old behaviour using
CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_LICENSE is retained.
This module was added by commit v2.6.0~1489 (...supporting embedded
compilers..., 2007-07-02) to avoid needing to build the compiler id
detection source on toolchains that need special flags or linker files
to produce executables. Since then CMake has learned other ways to
identify such compilers (e.g. passing vendor-specific version flags and
checking for vendor-specific banners in the output). Furthermore, CMake
now detects a lot more than just the compiler id during language
initialization in order to support things like <LANG>_STANDARD and
COMPILE_FEATURES. Therefore CMakeForceCompiler is no longer a viable
approach because it skips such detection.
One remaining challenge to support toolchains that require special
linker files is to build the test for a working compiler, compiler ABI
detection binary, and other try_compile cases. This will have to be
worked out as such cases are encountered.
The change made by commit v3.4.0-rc1~342^2 (Factor an <INCLUDES>
placeholder out of <FLAGS> in rule variables, 2015-07-13) affects an
internal interface. Since it is commonly used by projects anyway, add a
release note covering the change in placeholders.
Starting with sigc++ 2.5.1, c++11 must be enabled in order to use
sigc++. The GTK2::sigc++ imported target will automatically enable the
required build flags in order to build with the version found on the
system.
CMake assumes that a SHARED library compiled on Windows will export a LIB file.
This is not actually the case on Visual C++ if the library does not export any
symbols, and causes incremental builds to break if the user specifies SHARED
anyway. (Users should use MODULE libraries instead.)
Revert commit v3.4.0-rc1~10^2~2 (Features: Disable support for Oracle
SolarisStudio on non-Linux, 2015-09-29) and two follow-up commits.
The support of compile features and language standards on Orcale
SolarisStudio needs more investigation so for CMake 3.4 we should
just act as 3.3 did.

Co-Author: Brad King <brad.king@kitware.com>
Teach CMakeDetermineSystem to check for a CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION setting
even when CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME is not set. This will allow builds on the
host OS to target other versions of the OS without full cross-compiling.
On SunOS the -std=c++11 flag must be used for linking as well as
compiling. Until we implement support for this we cannot support
the CXX_STANDARD property except on Linux (where it was tested).

749a140a CPackDeb: allow empty directories in component packages
Some commands on Windows do not understand forward slash paths and
require backslashes. In order to help projects generate shell
invocations of such commands, provide a generator expression to convert
paths to the shell-preferred path format for the current generator.
This will allow custom commands to generate paths the same way CMake
does for compiler command invocations.
The latter is now the preferred URL for visiting cmake.org with a
browser. Convert using the shell code:
git ls-files -z | xargs -0 sed -i 's|http://www\.cmake|https://cmake|g'
The changes in commit 47b060ae (CPackDeb: allow empty directories in
component packages, 2015-09-21), commit b58de9fe (CPack: allow packaging
of empty directories, 2015-09-21), and commit b761e90d (CPack: remove
accidental changes, 2015-09-22) regressed packaging of CMake itself.
Revert the changes until they can be revised and rebased on other
changes that make additional fixes.

The changes in commit c96fe0b4 (cmake: Add -W options to control
deprecation warnings and errors, 2015-07-28) fail to account for
-Wdev warnings produced by places in CMake other than message().
This causes a regression in which -Wno-dev fails to suppress such
warnings. Revert the feature until it can be revised accordingly.
Set policy CMP0065 to the value used in the calling project.
Set the the value of CMAKE_ENABLE_EXPORTS if set in the calling
project to initialize the target property appropriately.
If variable is set to TRUE, values of all variables prefixed with CPACK_
will be escaped so special characters such as dolar sign, quotes or
foreward slash will not be lost. By default variable is treated as set
to FALSE for back compatibility.
The cpack_encode_variables macro is changed into a function to remove
scope pollution. There should be no other effects.
Add ctest command-line options:
--test-output-size-passed <n>
--test-output-size-failed <n>
to set the amount of test output to store in Test.xml as a command-line
dashboard client.
Add documentation and tests for the existing
CTEST_CUSTOM_MAXIMUM_PASSED_TEST_OUTPUT_SIZE
CTEST_CUSTOM_MAXIMUM_FAILED_TEST_OUTPUT_SIZE
CTest variables.

The calls to find_program now use NAMES_PER_DIR so that the first executable
(e.g. h5pcc) appearing on their PATH will get chosen. The HDF5_PREFER_PARALLEL
variable swaps the search order when it is set to true in the event that a
directory being search contains both h5cc and h5pcc.
Mangling is prevented by using a function instead of a macro for setting
default value of some CPack variables. Function is meant for internal use
in CPack.cmake only.
Old macro is deprecated but kept for backwards compatibility - was
intended for internal use only as it can't be used for CPack after
CPack.cmake script is included.
Patch removes local workarounds that were required by old macro,
fixes default setting of variables that by default inherit value from
another variable that already went through old default setting macro
(e.g. value of CPACK_PACKAGE_INSTALL_REGISTRY_KEY caused error for
wrong escapes if CPACK_PACKAGE_INSTALL_DIRECTORY contained escaped
back slashes) and provides a test for correct escaping of characters.

Add an OPENSSL_USE_STATIC_LIBS option to enable it. Adjust
CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES to only look for .a and .lib files. Also
adjust the search paths on Windows for installer locations of static
libraries.
Provide each variant in ZLIB_LIBRARIES and ZLIB::ZLIB imported location
properties when one is found, while maintaining support for manually
setting the library via ZLIB_LIBRARY.
When more than one value is given to the NAMES option this command by
default will consider one name at a time and search every directory for
it. Add a NAMES_PER_DIR option to tell this command to consider one
directory at a time and search for all names in it.
In CMake 3.0, the load_command command was deprecated. However, the
position of load_command in the help TOC was not fixed at that time:
it was still listed as a "Normal Command".
Improve formatting, primarily by:
* Adding links to relevant commands, properties, generators, and so on.
* Converting code, symbols, paths, and so on to fixed-width fonts.
* Hard wrapping lines to 80 characters or less.
In the get_filename_component command, add a new BASE_DIR parameter to
use with the ABSOLUTE and REALPATH options. This will be used when
finding an absolute path from a relative path.
