This property allow to specify a specific Visual Studio tool for a
source file overriding the default tool behavior. For example, a
`.resw` file being processed as a `PriResource` file. This has the
advantage of being able to teach CMake to process new file types without
code modifications.
Even in relatively small projects using `--trace` (and `--trace-expand`)
may produce a lot of output. When developing a custom module usually
one is interested in output of only a few particular modules.
Add a `--trace-source=<file>` option to enable tracing only a subset of
source files. The final output would be only from requested modules,
ignoring anything else not matched to given filename(s).
Create a LINK_WHAT_YOU_USE target property and corresponding
CMAKE_LINK_WHAT_YOU_USE variable to enable this behavior.
Extend link commands by running `ldd -u -r` to detect shared
libraries that are linked but not needed.
Add a ``FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIB32_PATHS`` global property analogous to the
``FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIB64_PATHS`` property. This helps find commands on
multilib systems that use ``lib32`` directories and either do not have
``lib`` symlinks or point ``lib`` to ``lib64``.
Add a `CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_PLATFORM_VARIABLES` variable to specify a list
of custom variables to be forwarded to a `try_compile` test project.
This will be useful for platform information modules or toolchain files
to forward some platform-specific set of variables from the host project
(perhaps set in its cache) to the test project so that it can build the
same way.
Create a `CMAKE_<LANG>_STANDARD_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES` variable to specify
system include directories for for `<LANG>` compiler command lines.
This plays a role for include directories as the existing
`CMAKE_<LANG>_STANDARD_LIBRARIES` variable does for link libraries.
Add a `CMAKE_NINJA_OUTPUT_PATH_PREFIX` variable. When it is set, CMake
generates a `build.ninja` file suitable for embedding into another ninja
project potentially generated by an alien generator.
The `--build` mode was confusingly documented among other options,
falsely implying that it can be used anywhere on the command line.
Move the documentation to a dedicated section and clarify its usage
as s separate command line mode.
In Sphinx output formats that print the toctree the policy numbers in
links from the cmake-policies(7) manual are not descriptive. Convert
the toctree entries to cross-reference syntax and add the summary of
each policy. For now simply duplicate the policy summary line. We
already maintain copies in `cmPolicies.h` and `Help/policy/*.rst` docs.
Versions below 12.1 do not provide enough information to properly detect
if compiling with c++98 or c++0x enabled so remove them from the
supported list.
Create a <LANG>_CLANG_TIDY target property (initialized by a
CMAKE_<LANG>_CLANG_TIDY variable) to specify a clang-tidy command line
to be run along with the compiler.

doing so is that some submodules may not be necessary for the current
test and keeping network usage down may be important.

Teach the VS 2008 and 2005 generators to set the `RemoteDirectory`

We originally deprecated this module in commit v3.5.0-rc1~295^2
(CMakeForceCompiler: Deprecate this module and its macros, 2015-10-19).
Then a use case was found to still require the module so the deprecation
was reverted for CMake 3.5 by commit v3.5.0-rc3~4^2 (CMakeForceCompiler:
De-deprecate until more use cases have alternatives, 2016-02-17). Since
then `CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE` was introduced to provide an
alternative solution for that use case. Deprecate the module again.
Also detect the library version number. Provide results as variables
and as an imported target, LTTng::UST.

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 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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

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).
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 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.
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.
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.
Use the CMAKE_LINK_SEARCH_START_STATIC and CMAKE_LINK_SEARCH_END_STATIC
variables to initialize the LINK_SEARCH_START_STATIC and
LINK_SEARCH_END_STATIC target properties respectively.
if(TEST TestNameThatExists) will return true if a test with the name
TestNameThatExists has been added with add_test. The syntax is similar
to if(TARGET TargetName). Since use of "TEST" as an argument to if()
could previously be interpreted as a non-keyword argument, add policy
CMP0064 to treat it as a keyword as NEW behavior.
Refactor the -Wdev and -Wno-dev to use a generic -W parser that follows
the GCC pattern. Include support for setting CMAKE_ERROR_DEPRECATED and
CMAKE_WARN_DEPRECATED via the deprecated warning. Add -Werror=dev and
-Wno-error=dev options so that dev warning options are in line with
deprecated warning options. Use a new CMAKE_SUPPRESS_DEVELOPER_ERRORS
internal cache entry to store the above new dev options persistently.
Add tests for new options and updated cmake documentation and release
notes to list new options.
