Document these variables.
Change our convention for setting these variables from:
set(CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_INIT "...")
to
string(APPEND CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_INIT " ...")
so that any value previously set by a toolchain file will be used.

and follow up with some manual fixes (e.g. to cases that already
meant to append). Also revert the automated changes to contexts
that are not protected from running multiple times.
In the `try_compile` source file signature we propagate the caller's
value of `CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS` into the test project. Extend this to
propagate `CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG>` too instead of always using the
default value in the test project. This will be useful, for example, to
allow the MSVC runtime library to be changed (e.g. `-MDd` => `-MTd`).
However, some projects may currently depend on this not being done,
so we need to activate the behavior using a policy.
This change was originally made by commit v3.6.0-rc1~160^2 (try_compile:
Honor CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG> changes, 2016-04-11) but without the
policy and so had to be reverted during the 3.6 release candidate cycle.
Fixes#16174.
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 `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.
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.
c18d91ad Help: add release notes for topic 'ctest-run-submodule-sync'
7f560743 cmCTestGIT: run `git submodule sync` before updating submodules
06b310b5 cmCTestGIT: add an option to initialize submodules on update
56c1ea40 cmCTestGIT: fix git version references
Currently, CTest will not initialize any submodules within the already
checked out source tree. Add an option to do so. The use case for not
doing so is that some submodules may not be necessary for the current
test and keeping network usage down may be important.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Teach the VS 2015 generator to produce a WindowsTargetPlatformVersion
value. Use the CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION to specify the version and if not
set choose a default based on available SDKs. Activate this behavior
when targeting Windows 10.

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.
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 documentation and tests for the existing
CTEST_CUSTOM_MAXIMUM_PASSED_TEST_OUTPUT_SIZE
CTEST_CUSTOM_MAXIMUM_FAILED_TEST_OUTPUT_SIZE
CTest variables.
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.
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.
The --trace option is helpful, but sometimes, what you're looking for is
deep under many layers of function calls and figuring out what instance
of the function call you're looking at is tedious to determine (usually
involving patching and message()). Instead, add a --trace-expand option
to trace while expanding commands into what CMake actually sees.
