The <LANG>_VISIBILITY_PRESET and VISIBILITY_INLINES_HIDDEN were first
merged in commit v2.8.12~322 (Merge topic 'VISIBILITY_PRESET-property',
2013-06-05) but worked only for shared libraries and executables with
exports. Prior to commit v3.0.0-rc1~581^2 (GenerateExportHeader:
Deprecate add_compiler_export_flags function., 2013-09-02) the
add_compiler_export_flags function was used to add visibility flags to
all targets.
The visibility flags are useful for sources in all target types because
they may be later linked into shared libraries or executables with
exports. Introduce policy CMP0063 to enable them for all target types
while preserving compatibility with existing projects that do not expect
this.
Add an ExternalData_NO_SYMLINKS to enable use of copies instead of
symlinks to populate the real data files behind a DATA{} reference.
This will be useful on UNIX-like systems when the underlying filesystem
does not actually support symbolic links.

Discussion by the QtCreator community at
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-13695
raises concerns about this particular approach to working with CMake
projects using QtCreator. Also, the functionality and design of the QBS
extra generator was never discussed on the CMake mailing list or with
QtCreator developers. There may be better ways to make the two tools
work together.
In order to avoid committing to long-term support of this generator
prior to such discussion taking place, revert it from CMake for now.
We may restore this or use an alternative design based on results of
such discussion.

Create a <LANG>_INCLUDE_WHAT_YOU_USE target property (initialized by a
CMAKE_<LANG>_INCLUDE_WHAT_YOU_USE variable) to specify an IWYU command
line to be run along with the compiler.
The find_package command, on Windows, has always searched build trees
recently visited by cmake-gui (or CMakeSetup at one time). This was
done when the command was created with the intention of simplifying
workflows involving building multiple dependent projects. However,
this behavior depends on recent developer interaction and therefore
can create different find results based on transient system states.
It can lead to surprising results and user confusion.
Since this behavior was first added CMake has gained many more search
options, better error messages when a package is not found, and a
package registry. The latter in particular allows projects to make
their build trees available for dependent projects to find without
user intervention. Therefore the originally intended workflow can
be achieved in other, more stable ways.
After the above evoluion of find_package we have now decided that
the magic search-where-cmake-gui-was behavior does more harm than
good. Drop it. We do not need a policy for this behavior change
because it only affects interactive use.
Use the KWSys Process "MergeOutput" option to give the child process
the same pipe (or file) for both stdout and stderr. This allows
natural merging of stdout and stderr together instead of merging
on arbitrary buffered read boundaries as before.
This reverts commit 242c3966 (add_custom_command: Diagnose
MAIN_DEPENDENCY limitation, 2015-03-09) and the follow up commit
b372a99a (UseSWIG: Do not use MAIN_DEPENDENCY on custom commands,
2015-03-26).
I misdiagnosed the underlying issue that prompted creation of policy CMP0057.
The actual issue surfaces when a single custom command's MAIN_DEPENDENCY
is listed in more than one target; this issue will have to be addressed
independently.

The FOUND_VAR was only permitted to have two possible values, and

For VS 10 (2010) the reload macro does not work correctly when run from

882f48e5 Link libraries by full path even in implicit directories
318cd370 Help: Add link target for Find Modules section of cmake-developer.7
1535dcd8 Tests: Teach RunCMake to optionally merge command output to stdout
When CMP0003 was first introduced we wanted to link all libraries by
full path. However, some projects had problems on platforms where
find_library would find /usr/lib/libfoo.so when the project really
wanted to link to /usr/lib/<arch>/libfoo.so and had been working by
accident because pre-CMP0003 behavior used -lfoo to link.
We first tried to address that in commit v2.6.0~440 (Teach find_library
to avoid returning library paths in system directories, 2008-01-23) by
returning just "foo" for libraries in implicit link directories. This
caused problems for projects expecting find_library to always return a
full path. We ended up using the solution in commit v2.6.0~366 (...
switch library paths found in implicit link directories to use -l,
2008-01-31). However, the special case for libraries in implicit link
directories has also proven problematic and confusing.
Introduce policy CMP0060 to switch to linking all libraries by full path
even if they are in implicit link directories. Explain in the policy
documentation the factors that led to the original approach and now to
this approach.
XAML files are by default of type Page in the vcxproj and can be
overriden by setting the VS_XAML_TYPE property. The .cpp and .h file
of the same name are automatically added as depending on the XAML file.
New VSXaml test builds a basic XAML WindowsStore 8.1 app with VS2013.
Beginning in CUDA 5.5 a static version of the cuda runtime library
became available. Since nvcc defaults to using this library over the
shared version, FindCUDA will also default to using this version. There
are many advantages to using the static version (most importantly to
avoid conflicts with multiple versions when building a CUDA based
library). Offer a CUDA_USE_STATIC_CUDA_RUNTIME option to control
this behavior.
Add policy CMP0059 to cover this change. The property has been
deprecated since CMake 2.4 anyway.
This will help clean up cmMakefile -- the DefineFlagsOrig member should

Revert commit v3.0.0-rc1~175^2~20 (add_dependencies: Disallow use with

IMPORTED targets in commit v2.8.6~127^2~1 (Allow add_dependencies() on

case to cover header generation for a header-only INTERFACE library via
a custom target.
Extend the ``DATA{Dir/,...}`` syntax with a new ``RECURSE:`` option

Add policy CMP0058 to avoid generating 'phony' ninja rules for unknown
custom command dependencies. This requires projects to specify their
custom command byproducts explicitly. With this requirement we no
longer have to assume that unknown custom command dependencies are
generated and can instead simply assume they are source files expected
to exist when the build starts. This is particularly important in
in-source builds. It is also helpful for out-of-source builds to allow
Ninja to diagnose missing files before running custom command rules that
depend on them.

Since jsoncpp 0.7.0 (2014-11-20) the upstream may provide a CMake
package configuration file such that find_package(jsoncpp) will find a
jsoncppConfig.cmake file. In order to avoid conflicting with this
(especially on case-insensitive filesystems), and since we always prefer
projects to provide package config files (that they maintain), it is
better to not provide FindJsonCpp publicly.
Move FindJsonCpp into a private source directory that is not installed
so that we can still use it for building CMake itself.
Reported-by: Ryan Pavlik <ryan.pavlik@gmail.com>
The find_package command already knows how to compute installation
prefixes from PATH. Use the same approach to establish prefixes for
find_library, find_file, and find_path to use to look in directories
like "<prefix>/lib[/<arch>]" and "<prefix>/include" for libraries and
headers. This will reduce the amount of configuration end users need to
do to establish a work environment rooted under a specific prefix.

This will allow us to use a value other than just the config name

Also use $(ConfigurationName) instead of $(OutDir) for the link
directory configuration suffix since that is a hard-coded instance of
a use case for CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR.
This will allow per-config destinations for targets in EXPORT sets.
Using multiple install(TARGETS) with separate CONFIGURATIONS is
rejected as a target appearing more than once in an export set.

In commit v3.0.0-rc1~9 (Help: Rename 3.0 release notes to 3.0.0,
2014-02-19) we anticipated the possibility of bugfix-only release notes.
However, in practice we have no release notes for bug fix releases
because we do not cover bug fixes in release notes at all, only new
features. Instead we've been updating the feature-level release notes
document in bug fix releases, treating errors in the document as bugs.
It makes more sense to maintain release notes at the feature-release
level, so rename the documents accordingly. Also update the document
titles and intro text to refer only to feature versions and not bugfix
versions.
Add section headers similar to the 3.1 release notes and move each
individual bullet into an appropriate section. Revise and consolidate
some bullets covering related areas.

11e2e6ca Xcode: Select make program at build time
e4055a61 Xcode: Add internal API to find xcodebuild
The "cmakexbuild" wrapper is not needed for Xcode 4 and above, and the
path to it may change when CMake moves. Avoid storing a specific path
to a build program in CMakeCache.txt and instead compute the value for
CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM on demand. However, if a user does set the value
explicitly then honor it.
This does for Xcode what commit v3.0.0-rc1~260^2~4 (VS: Switch to
internal CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM lookup by generators, 2013-11-15) did for
Visual Studio generators.
This will make them use the 'console' pool with the Ninja generator.

When using system curl, we trust it to be configured with desired CA
certs. When using our own build of curl, we use os-configured CA certs
on Windows and OS X. On other systems, try to achieve this by searching
for common CA cert locations. According to a brief investigation, the
curl packages on popular Linux distros are currently configured as:
* Arch: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
* Debian with OpenSSL: /etc/ssl/certs
* Debian with GNU TLS: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
* Debian with NSS: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
* Fedora: /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
* Gentoo with OpenSSL: /etc/ssl/certs
* Gentoo without OpenSSL: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
Teach CMake and CTest to look for these paths and use them as a CA path
or bundle when no other os-configured or user-specified CAs are
available.
Add an option to set the mtime of entries in a tarball so that one can
create a tarball with a consistent content hash (e.g. MD5) for a given
set of files regardless of their current timestamps on disk. This will
be useful for submission of tarballs to CDash, which tracks content
hashes to avoid duplication.

http://stackoverflow.com/a/23850891/2428389
A possible reason for that is that thread_local might be used as
a variable in existing Apple SDK headers.
Extend the WriteCompilerDetectionHeader module to generate a define
for that feature with portability fallbacks. For the avoidance of
making it easy to write code which looks correct but which has odd
runtime behavior, don't set the define symbol at all if no

The change in commit v3.1.0-rc1~174^2 (Makefile: Handle '#' in

tries to workaround the original bug. Unfortunately there is no

On OS X, when CMAKE_USE_OPENSSL is OFF, use the OS implementation.
This will allow the OS-configured CA list to be trusted automatically.
This is supported on OS X 10.6 and above using AppleClang, Clang, and
GNU compilers.
Also add a 'CMAKE_ANDROID_API_MIN' variable to set the property
default. Teach the VS generator to write the MIN API value into
Nsight Tegra project files.
When install(EXPORT) is given an absolute destination we cannot compute
the install prefix relative to the installed export file location.
Previously we disallowed installation of targets in such exports with a
relative destination, but did not enforce this for target property
values besides the location of the main target file. This could lead to
broken installations when the EXPORT is installed to an absolute path
but usage requirements are specified relative to the install prefix.
Since an EXPORT installed to an absolute destination cannot be relocated
we can just hard-code the value of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX as the base for
relative paths. This will allow absolute install(EXPORT) destinations
to work with relative destinations for targets and usage requirements.
Extend the ExportImport test with a case covering this behavior.
If this option is enabled, the test step is created with the
EXCLUDE_FROM_MAIN option, and if TEST_BEFORE_INSTALL is enabled, the
install step does not depend on the test step.
This means that the test step is never executed, unless the test target
is explicitly created by calling ExternalProject_Add_StepTarget, or by
passing it with the STEP_TARGETS option, or with the EP_STEP_TARGETS
directory property.
The FindXerces module was added in commit v3.1.0-rc1~155^2 (FindXerces:

implementation.

Copy CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS into the test project generated by

Add CMake Policy CMP0056 to activate this behavior in a compatible way,
but do not warn by default when the policy is not set since it will
affect all try_compile calls.
Extend the RunCMake.try_compile test with a case covering this behavior
for each policy setting.
With PushScope and PopScope, keeping track of another bit of data for
each scope isn't easy. Instead, store it as another CMake variable so it
gets implicitly tracked along with everything else.
This works in a revert of commit
7d674b5f0b.
Add a VS_DEPLOYMENT_LOCATION source file property to specify where to
put files that are part of the package. For example:
set_property(SOURCE ${ASSET_FILES} PROPERTY VS_DEPLOYMENT_LOCATION "assets")
Without this, sources marked with VS_DEPLOYMENT_CONTENT cannot be
located properly.
Create properties VS_SHADER_ENTRYPOINT and VS_SHADER_MODEL. Without
these many .hlsl source files may not be possible to use. Extend the
VSWinStorePhone test project to cover them.
Revert the feature added by commit v3.1.0-rc1~420^2~2 (FindOpenGL:
Provide imported targets for GL and GLU, 2014-05-31). Unfortunately it
does not work on Windows because the full path to each library file is
not actually known. The IMPORTED_LOCATION of an imported target must be
a full path, but OPENGL_gl_LIBRARY is just 'opengl32' on Windows because
the actual library file is in some implicit link directory that we may
know know.
More infrastructure will be needed in CMake to allow a name-only
imported library. Until that exists, we will not be able to provide
imported targets in FindOpenGL.
In commit 079e8469ab (... OpenGL always needs X11 on Unix, 2002-09-05)
the FindOpenGL module was taught to search for X11 as a dependency of
the OpenGL library. This was done without a detailed explanation, and
the dependency should not be explicitly needed because OpenGL headers
should not expose applications to X11 APIs directly.
Unfortunately the only way to know if anything legitimately depends on
this behavior (perhaps in static library cases) is to simply remove it
and wait for issues to be reported. If so, then we can add some kind of
compatibility setting for this later. Add a release note to draw
attention to this change.

Some applications only need the OpenSSL crypto library and want to avoid
linking against the SSL library. Set OPENSSL_CRYPTO_LIBRARY and
OPENSSL_SSL_LIBRARY in the code paths that do not need to find them
separately, and document them publicly. This allows applications to be
more specific when linking against OpenSSL.
