This can be used to set the compiler features required by particular
targets. An error is issued at CMake time if the compiler does not
support the required feature. If a language dialect flag is required
by the features used, that will be added automatically.
Base the target_compile_features command on cmTargetPropCommandBase. This
gives us 'free' handling of IMPORTED, ALIAS, INTERFACE, non-compilable
and missing targets.
Use the contents of it to upgrade the CXX_STANDARD target property,
if appropriate. This will have the effect of adding the -std=c++11
compile flag or other language specification on GNU when that is
needed for the feature.
9407174b target_sources: New command to add sources to target.
81ad69e0 Make the SOURCES target property writable.
6e636f2e cmTarget: Make the SOURCES origin tracable.
3676fb49 cmTarget: Allow transitive evaluation of SOURCES property.
e6971df6 cmTarget: Make the source files depend on the config.
df753df9 cmGeneratorTarget: Don't add computed sources to the target.
869328aa cmComputeTargetDepends: Use valid config to compute target depends.
Extend the cmGeneratorExpressionDAGChecker with an interface
returning the name of the top target. Use that to determine
when there is a DAG violation, as required by the RunCMake.Languages
tests.
The output of this expression may contain macros for IDEs to replace
such as $(Configuration), $(CURRENT_ARCH) etc. To avoid generating
content which is not usable in other contexts, report an error if
there is an attempt to use it in other contexts.
This commit may be reverted in the future if a solution to the
above difference is implemented.
Remove use of UseObjectLibraries from Makefile and Ninja generators. It
is not needed now because those generators use GetExternalObjects
which already contains the objects from object libraries.
The VS10 generator calls both the UseObjectLibraries and the GetExternalObjects
methods. Ensure that duplicates are not created by skipping objects
from object libraries in handling of GetExternalObjects.
Similarly, fix VS6, VS7 and Xcode object handling by skipping
external objects from OBJECT_LIBRARY usage as appropriate.
The error message in the BadSourceExpression1 test is now reported
by the generator expression evaluator, so it has different text.
Not everything that isn't MSVC is GCC. I have support for LDC's depfile
format on its way upstream[1], but its future is uncertain. CMake should
at least support this for future depfile formats.

Rely on evaluation in cmCustomCommandGenerator for the generators.
When tracing target dependencies, depend on the union of dependencies
for all configurations.
489b1c23 Windows: Use response files to specify link libraries for GNU tools
745caae6 Makefile: Rename linker response file boolean to be more specific

b9aa5041 cmLocalGenerator: Simplify GetIncludeFlags output formatting
971653b7 cmLocalGenerator: Add format option to ConvertToLinkReference

c8751709 Makefile: Factor out some duplicate link libraries generation
Work around the command-line-length limit by using an @linklibs.rsp
response file to pass the flags for link libraries. This allows
very long lists of libraries to be used in addition to the existing
support for passing object files via response file.

Since commit v2.8.12~437^2~2 (VS: Separate compiler and linker PDB files
2013-04-05) we no longer set /Fd with the PDB_NAME or PDB_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
properties. Those properties now exclusively handle linker PDB files.
Since STATIC libraries do not link their compiler PDB file becomes more
important. Add new target properties "COMPILE_PDB_NAME[_<CONFIG>]" and
"COMPILE_PDB_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY[_<CONFIG>]" to specify the compiler PDB
file location and pass the value to the MSVC /Fd option.
When building boost with an alternate namespace the libraries generated
will have a different naming convention. This is often done to ensure
no symbol conflicts with external libraries built against a different
version of boost. If the namespace used is "myprivateboost::" instead
of "boost::" then the libraries built will be named myprivateboost_foo
instead of boost_foo. Add an option to specify a custom namespace used
to alter the library names that get searched for.
Add a release/dev.txt file and include it from release/index.rst in
development versions. Add a "Changes Since Release" section with a
toctree that globs adjacent "dev/*" documents. Add a sample topic
document explaining how topic-specific release note documents work.
This approach will allow developers to write release notes for their
changes as they are made. The release manager may then consolidate and
organize the notes for a specific release version.
