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.
