Several more recent Visual Studio Express editions are now available and
they support debug builds. Simplify our VS platform files by removing
support for these old tools. If anyone still uses them we can restore
support with a more modern way to test for them.
Ancient versions of CMake required else(), endif(), and similar block
termination commands to have arguments matching the command starting the
block. This is no longer the preferred style.

Since commit c198730b (Detect Watcom compiler version with its id,
2011-12-07) the CMAKE_(C|CXX)_COMPILER_VERSION variables are set for the
Watcom compiler. Use these in Windows-wcl386.cmake to set the old
WATCOM1* version variables. This avoids using the old EXECUTE_PROCESS
command which failed due to extra quotes anyway.
Teach CMake to prefer the system default compiler automatically when no
compiler is specified. By default use "cc" for C, "CC" for C++, and
"f95" for Fortran. Load a new Platform/<os>-<lang>.cmake module to
allow each platform to specify for each language its system compiler
name(s) and/or exclude certain names.
Create Platform/(CYGWIN|Darwin|Linux|Windows)-CXX.cmake modules to
specify "c++" as the system C++ compiler name for these platforms. On
systems that use case-insensitive filesystems exclude C++ compiler names
that are distinguished from C compiler names only by case.
This will change the default compiler selection for existing build
scripts that do not specify a compiler when run on machines with
separate system and GNU compilers both installed in the PATH. We do not
make this change in default behavior lightly. However:
(1) If a given build really needs specific compilers one should specify
them explicitly e.g. by setting CC, CXX, and FC in the environment.
(2) The motivating case is to prefer the system Clang on newer OS X
systems over the older GNU compilers typically also installed. On
such systems the names "cc" and "c++" link to Clang. This is the
first platform known to CMake on which "c++" is not a GNU compiler.
The old behavior selected "gcc" for C and "c++" C++ and therefore
chooses GNU for C and Clang for C++ by default. The new behavior
selects GNU or Clang consistently for both languages on older or
newer OS X systems, respectively.
(3) Other than the motivating OS X case the conditions under which the
behavior changes do not tend to exist in default OS installations.
They typically occur only on non-GNU systems with manually-installed
GNU compilers.
(4) The consequences of the new behavior are not dire. At worst the
project fails to compile with the system compiler when it previously
worked with the non-system GNU compiler. Such failure is easy to
work around (see #1).
In short this change creates a more sensible default behavior everywhere
and fixes poor default behavior on a widely-used platform at the cost of
a modest change in behavior in less-common conditions.

Among other flags this sets RPATH flags correctly so that CMake knows
how to treat CMAKE_PLATFORM_REQUIRED_RUNTIME_PATH for the ASM language.
This is the GNU compiler equivalent to commit a0bab7ae (Add ASM platform
information for XL compiler on AIX, 2011-03-02), made for XL.
bd34963 Refactor generation of shared library flags
55d7aa4 Add platform variable for flags specific to shared libraries
31d7a0f Add platform variables for position independent code flags
Store in new platform variables
CMAKE_${lang}_COMPILE_OPTIONS_PIC
CMAKE_${lang}_COMPILE_OPTIONS_PIE
flags for position independent code generation.
In almost all cases, this means duplication of the
CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_${lang}_FLAGS for the _PIC case and using the
assumed pie equivalent for the _PIE case. Note that the GNU compiler
has supported -fPIE since 3.4 and that there is no -fPIC on GNU for
Windows or Cygwin.
There is a possibility that the _PIE variables are not correct.
However, as there is no backwards compatibility to be concerned about
(as the POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE property is not used anywhere yet),
the current state suffices.
The default for `CMAKE_FIND_FRAMEWORK`, defined in `Darwin.cmake` and
`Darwin-icc.cmake`, is now guarded so that it will not override command line
arguments passed by users.
Similarly for `CMAKE_FIND_APPBUNDLE`
Add a boolean target property NO_SONAME which may be used to disable
soname for the specified shared library or module even if the platform
supports it. This property should be useful for private shared
libraries or various plugins which live in private directories and have
not been designed to be found or loaded globally.
Replace references to <CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_SONAME_${LANG}_FLAG> and
hard-coded -install_name flags with a conditional <SONAME_FLAG> which is
expanded to the value of the CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_SONAME_${LANG}_FLAG
definition as long as soname supports is enabled for the target in
question. Keep expanding CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_SONAME_${LANG}_FLAG in
rules in case third party projects still use it. Such projects would
not yet use NO_SONAME so the adjacent <TARGET_SONAME> will always be
expanded. Make <TARGET_INSTALLNAME_DIR> NO_SONAME aware as well. Since
-install_name is soname on OS X, this should not be a problem if this
variable is expanded only if soname is enabled.
The Ninja generator performs rule variable substitution only once
globally per rule to put its own placeholders. Final substitution is
performed by ninja at build time. Therefore we cannot conditionally
replace the soname placeholders on a per-target basis. Rather than
omitting $SONAME from rules.ninja, simply do not write its contents for
targets which have NO_SONAME. Since 3 variables are affected by
NO_SONAME ($SONAME, $SONAME_FLAG, $INSTALLNAME_DIR), set them only if
soname is enabled.
Use of the deprecated option with Intel 2011 produces
icl: command line remark #10010: option '/GX' is deprecated and will
be removed in a future release. See '/help deprecated'
so use its replacement option which has been supported for several
older versions anyway.
The parent commit added a search path relative to OSX_DEVELOPER_ROOT.
But with Xcode 4.3 the nested Applications folder is in a different
relative location compared to that root. This commit makes the intent
of the previous commit work with older and newer Xcode directory layouts.
Furthermore, it only adds paths that exist to the search path.
Since commit 4693cf84 (Xcode: Detect new default locations of Xcode 4.3
bits and pieces) Darwin.cmake detects the developer application
directory instead of hard-coding /Developer. Replace the hard-coded

Xcode 4.3 installs into "/Applications" by default, from the Mac App Store.
Also, the paths to the available SDKs changed: they are now within the
Xcode.app bundle.
PackageMaker is installed as a separate program, and may be installed
anywhere. It is not installed with Xcode 4.3 by default anymore.
Download the "Auxiliary Tools for Xcode" to get PackageMaker.
Put PackageMaker inside the Xcode.app bundle, in its nested Applications
folder, or put it alongside Xcode in "/Applications" and CMake will find
it.
Update references to "find" paths: add new possible locations for finding
Xcode.app and PackageMaker.app. Prefer the most recent version's locations
first, but keep the old locations as fallback search paths, too.

The Borland compiler was re-branded as CodeGear during 2007-2009 and
since 2009 is the Embarcadero compiler. They offer predefined macros:
http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/en/Predefined_Macros
and distinguish themselves by __CODEGEARC__ and __CODEGEARC_VERSION__.
Version 6.30 (C++Builder XE) changed the meaning of some flags:
http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/en/C%2B%2B_Compiler_Option_Changes_for_XE
Teach Embarcadero compiler information files to generate build rules
with flags matching the compiler version. Leave the flags unchanged
for old Borland versions. Always set the BORLAND toolchain indicator
for compatibility with existing projects that test it. Also set the
EMBARCADERO indicator for newer toolchains.
The Borland compiler is now the Embarcadero compiler. Rename the shared
platform information file to reflect this. This does not change the
interface, as old versions are still "Borland", but will allow new
versions released by Embarcadero to be supported cleanly.
Fix typo introduced in commit 66a08c10 (more uniform approach to enable

The default OS X 10.4 linker incorrectly searches for dependencies of
linked shared libraries only under the -isysroot location. It fails to
find dependencies of linked shared libraries in cases such as the
ExportImport test. It produces errors like:
/usr/libexec/gcc/i686-apple-darwin8/4.0.1/ld: warning can't open dynamic library:
libtestLib3Imp.dylib
referenced from: /.../ExportImport/Root/lib/libtestLib3lib.1.2.dylib
(checking for undefined symbols may be affected) (No such file or directory, errno = 2)

or with CMAKE_SKIP_RPATH off to enable install_name in the Export side:
/usr/libexec/gcc/i686-apple-darwin8/4.0.1/ld: warning can't open dynamic library:

referenced from libtestLib3lib expected to be defined in
/.../ExportImport/Export/impl/libtestLib3Imp.dylib
Note how "/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk" is prepended to the dependent
library path.
Commit 2cff26fa (Support linking to shared libs with dependent libs,
2008-01-31) and commit 82fcaebe (Pass dependent library search path to
linker on some platforms, 2008-02-01) worked around the problem by
defining platform variable CMAKE_LINK_DEPENDENT_LIBRARY_FILES. It tells
CMake to link to dependent libraries explicitly by their path thus
telling the linker where to find them.
Unfortunately the workaround had the side effect of linking dependent
libraries and defeats most benefits of LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES.
Fortunately OS X 10.5 and above do not need to find transitive
dependencies at all so we can avoid the workaround on Modern OS X.
Previously we linked C, Fortran, and ASM shared libraries compiled with
the HP compiler using a direct invocation of the linker (ld). This
behavior was left historically from support for an ancient HP C compiler
that did not know how to create shared libraries. Fortran shared
libraries need to be linked with the compiler to get the language
runtime library dependencies as is already done for C++.
Update the HP-UX-HP* platform information to use the compiler front end
when linking shared libraries. This works on modern HP tools and
produces correct behavior. If there is a need to support older tools
again we can add a special case for them.

ecd8414 Fortran: Detect pointer size in gfortran on MinGW
Teach the Windows-GNU.cmake platform file to look for Visual Studio
tools matching the target ABI. Add an extra step to the link command
for shared libraries and executables that export symbols and on which a
new GNUtoMS property is set (initialized by the CMAKE_GNUtoMS option).
Tell the GNU linker to output a module definition (.def) file listing
exported symbols in addition to the GNU-format import library (.dll.a).
Pass the .def file to the MS "lib" tool to construct a MS-format DLL
import library (.lib).
Teach the install(TARGETS) command to install the MS import library next
to the GNU one. Teach the install(EXPORT) and export() command to set
the IMPORTED_IMPLIB property pointing at the import library to use the
import library matching the tools in the importing project.
Use __SIZEOF_POINTER__ which the GNU Fortran compiler defines at least
on 64-bit MinGW. Assume default size 4 on MinGW if gfortran does not
define the size.
Use the "-shared" option to link shared libraries. The compiler does
not support "-Wl," or "-rpath" but does know how to pass "-soname"
through to the linker.
- Build wasn't properly using -soname linker args, so installed libraries
could depend on relative paths from the build directory.
- Consolidated GNU linker args to one place in the BlueGeneP-base platform
file, since ld is used by both XL and GNU toolchains on BlueGene.
Commit 6d434ee6 (Split XL compiler information files, 2009-09-30)
added Platform/AIX-(XL|VisualAge)-(C|CXX|Fortran).cmake modules
to support the old and new compiler branding for all languages.
Add the "AIX-VisualAge-Fortran" combination that was left out
accidentally.
Allows wlib to generate proper exports if two routines have
the same spelling, but different case (like Scale and scale).
Thanks to J Decker for the patch.

The GNU 4.x toolchain on MinGW (and therefore MSYS) allows compiler
options to be passed via response files. Use this to pass include
directory -I options. This allows the include file search path to be
very long despite shell and mingw32-make command line length limits.
Move HP flags out of Platform/HP-UX.cmake into platform-specific
compiler information files "Platform/HP-UX-HP-<lang>.cmake". Factor
common values into "Platform/HP-UX-HP.cmake" and load it from the
per-language files.
Move RPATH flags out of Platform/AIX.cmake into platform-specific
compiler information files Platform/AIX-XL and Platform/AIX-GNU.
The flags need to be set for each compiler of each language.
Commit 6a61a8a5 (Honor module .def files with MinGW tools, 2011-02-21)
set CMAKE_LINK_DEF_FILE_FLAG to "-Wl," to enable passing .def files to
the linker on MinGW. However, older GNU tools in the MSYS shell do not
know how to translate "-Wl,/c/..." to "c:/..." and complain that the
file does not exist. Instead set the flag to just "" which tells CMake
it can pass the file through the front-end with no special flag.
Since commit 024d05ad (Fix use of module .def files for MS tools,
2009-09-29) module .def files work for any platform that sets
CMAKE_LINK_DEF_FILE_FLAG correctly. Set it in the Windows-GNU platform
information file to enable support with MinGW tools. Also enable the
test added by commit 0db2c850 (Test use of module .def files for MS
tools, 2009-09-29) for MinGW and MSYS generators.

b2f308c Add support for windows resources with mingw/msys.
The Mac linker defines flag -headerpad_max_install_names but not all
front-ends recognize the flag and pass it through (many did in the past,
such as the Apple port of GCC). Use the -Wl, option prefix to tell
front-ends to pass it through without trying to interpret it.
One of Cygwin's goals is to build projects using the POSIX API with no
Windows awareness. Many CMake-built projects have been written to test
for UNIX and WIN32 but not CYGWIN. The preferred behavior under Cygwin
in such projects is to take the UNIX path but not the WIN32 path.
Unfortunately this change is BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE for Cygwin-aware
CMake projects! Some projects that previously built under Cygwin and
are Cygwin-aware when they test for WIN32 may now behave differently.
Eventually these projects will need to be updated, but to help users
build them in the meantime we print a warning about the change in
behavior. Furthermore, one may set CMAKE_LEGACY_CYGWIN_WIN32 to request
old behavior during the transition.
Normally we avoid backwards incompatible changes, but we make an
exception in this case for a few reasons:
(1) This behavior is preferred by Cygwin's design goals.
(2) A warning provides a clear path forward for everyone who may see
incompatible behavior, and CMAKE_LEGACY_CYGWIN_WIN32 provides a
compatibility option. The warning and compatibility option both
disappear when the minimum required version of CMake in a project is
sufficiently new, so this issue will simply go away over time as
projects are updated to account for the change.
(3) The fixes required to update projects are fairly insignificant.
Furthermore, the Cygwin distribution has no releases itself so project
versions that predate said fixes tend to be difficult to build anyway.
(4) This change enables many CMake-built projects that did not
previously build under Cygwin to work out-of-the-box. From bug #10122:
"I have built over 120 different source packages with (my patched)
CMake, including most of KDE4, and have found that NOT defining
WIN32 on Cygwin is much more accurate." -- Yaakov Selkowitz
A fully compatible change would require patches on top of these project
releases for Cygwin even though they otherwise need not be aware of it.
(5) Yaakov has been maintaining a fork of CMake with this change for the
Cygwin Ports distribution. It works well in practice. By accepting the
change in upstream CMake we avoid confusion between the versions.
CMake itself builds without WIN32 defined on Cygwin. Simply disable
CMAKE_LEGACY_CYGWIN_WIN32 explicitly in our own CMakeLists.txt file.
09d1c10 FortranCInterface: Recognize NAG Fortran module symbols
af2ad90 Add NAG Fortran compiler information files
24cc3d4 Recognize the NAG Fortran compiler
83892c4 Allow Fortran platform files to set empty values
fe3f878 Detect object files in implicit link information
Since commit aff31479 (Modernize GNU compiler info on Windows,
2009-12-02) the file Modules/Platform/Windows-g++.cmake has been unused.
It just includes the non-existent Modules/Platform/Windows-gcc.cmake so
remove it outright.
This moves Intel compiler info on Windows into new-style modules
Platform/Windows-Intel-<lang>.cmake
using language-independent helper module
Platform/Windows-Intel.cmake
to define macros consolidating the information.
Commit 4430bccc (Change the way 32/64 bit compiles are detected with
MSVC and intel, 2009-11-19) added detection of the target processor to C
and CXX language builds with MS and Intel tools. Do the same for Intel
Fortran for Windows (ifort). Use /machine:<arch> to link executables.
On Linux the NAG Fortran compiler uses gcc under the hood to link. Use
"-Wl,-v" to pass "-v" to the underlying gcc compiler to get verbose link
output. Detect the NAG Fortran directory (using -dryrun) and then honor
object files in the directory referenced in the implicit link line.
Pass real linker options with "-Wl,-Xlinker,". The -Wl, gets through
the NAG front-end and the -Xlinker gets through the gcc front-end.
The Mac linker defines -headerpad_max_install_names and the GCC
front-end passes this flag through. The PGI compiler does not know
about this flag, so we must use -Wl,-headerpad_max_install_names to pass
it to the linker instead.
Use a combination of response files and the archiver to support long
object file lists that do not fit in the Windows command-line length
limit. This can work only with GCC >= 4 because the MinGW GCC 3.x
front-ends do not support response-file syntax.
Set CMAKE_PLATFORM_REQUIRED_RUNTIME_PATH in the HP-UX platform file to
tell CMake to pass -Wl,+b,/usr/lib no matter whether RPATH is enabled or
not. This corrects the behavior of -Wl,+nodefaultrpath to look in this
default library path as documented.
Include this prefix in CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH so that it will be used
for all find* commands. Previously only find_library and find_path
would look under /opt/local/lib and /opt/local/include, respectively.
BlueGeneP-base: Internal base shared by static and dynamic files
BlueGeneP-static: Platform file for all-static builds
BlueGeneP-dynamic: Platform file for "default" dynamic builds
Use response files for C and CXX languages with the Intel compiler on
Windows. We already used them for Fortran. This enables creation of
libraries and executables with a very large number of object files.
Tru64's make(1) resolves relative paths in "include" directives with
respect to the includer. This is inconsistent with all other known make
tools. Note that this make tool treats the path literally so we cannot
use our standard FULL path code which escapes spaces. Instead qualify
the paths with $(CMAKE_BINARY_DIR) to avoid the problem.
Commit 82c081ba (Fix rpath-link flag for SunPro C++ on Linux,
2009-07-13) taught CMake to pass '-rpath-link' because SunPro C++ 5.9
does not support '-Wl,'. Now SunPro C++ 5.11 does not recognize the
option without using '-Wl,'. Detect whether to use '-Wl,' based on the
output of "sunCC -flags".
The ENABLE_EXPORTS property exports all symbols from executables on
UNIX-like platforms, typically for use by plugins. Honor this behavior
on Cygwin. See issue #10122.
Map to the platform and compiler information for GNU because the
compilers are command-line compatible for common operations. Later we
can add Clang-specific features as necessary. We honor the preferred
capitalization is "Clang", not the common mis-spelling "CLang".
The expectation of users of the MSVC60, MSVC70, MSVC71, MSVC80, MSVC90
and the new MSVC10 variables is that at most one of them will be set
for any given build tree. This change enforces that expectation for
build trees using Makefile generators. It also fixes the one mismatch
in that expectation to be found in the Visual Studio generator world:
previously, the VS 7.1 generator would set *both* MSVC70 and MSVC71;
now, it only sets MSVC71.
With these changes, user expectations are now met, and the recently
introduced CheckCompilerRelatedVariables test should pass everywhere.
As reported on the mailing list, find_path/file/library/program() basically don't work
at all if CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH is set and searching in the host system directories
is disabled. This patch adds /include, /lib and /bin to the search directories, so they
will be appended to CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH so this will work for the "Generic" platform (embedded
systems without OS)
Alex
Detect the runtime linker's search path and add to the compile time
linker's search path. This is needed because OpenBSD's static linker
does not search for shared library dependencies in the same places as
the runtime linker.
Commit "Modernize GNU compiler info on Windows" (2009-12-02) reorganized
GNU flags on Windows but let -fPIC slip through for compilation of
objects in shared libraries. While this flag is valid on most GNU
compiler platforms we need to suppress it in Windows-GNU.cmake just as
we already do in CYGWIN-GNU.cmake.
In commit "use export all symbols on cygwin" (2003-01-21) we started
passing -Wl,--export-all-symbols when linking shared libraries. Now
cygwin exports all symbols automatically if no symbols are explicitly
exported. When symbols are explicitly exported we want to honor that
narrow interface. Therefore this flag should not be passed.
Change based on patch from issue #10122.
The variable should contain the name of a library needed to link the
symbol equivalent to dlopen. On Cygwin no special library is needed,
and certainly not "gdi32".
Change based on patch from issue #10122.
While Cygwin supports linking directly to .dll files, the behavior is
now discouraged. All Cygwin packages now provide import libraries of
the form lib*.dll.a and CMake has built the import libraries for years.
We believe it is now safe to stop explicitly searching for .dll files
because their import libraries will always be available when the
corresponding header files are available. Users can always set
find_library cache entries to point at a .dll file by hand if they
really must use one.
Change based on patch from issue #10122.
Commit "Find locally installed software first" made /usr/local the first
prefix searched to be consistent with the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard:
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/
The standard also implies that the root prefix "/" should not have any
package or development files. The "/bin" and "/lib" directories should
have only minimal contents to boot the system. No "/include" ever
exists. This commit re-orders the search path prefix list from
/usr/local
/
/usr
to
/usr/local
/usr
/
to prefer package and development files over low-level system files.
See issue #10136.
On Cygwin /usr/lib == /lib and /usr/bin == /bin. This change also makes
search results report locations as "/usr/..." instead of "/lib/...".
See issue #10122.
The commit "Drop -rdynamic from Linux build rules" removed default use
of the flag on Linux. It was expected to be compatible because any
project using plugins should set ENABLE_EXPORTS on its executables to
export their symbols for use by the plugins in a cross-platform way.
However, it is possible to build without ENABLE_EXPORTS and load plugins
that do not link to any symbols from the executable explicitly. These
plugins may need to see RTTI and other executable symbols needed by the
language implementation. Executables using such plugins were broken by
the change.
If we want to remove the -rdynamic flag in the future we should do so in
a compatible way. At that time we should also remove equivalent flags
on other platforms (like -bexpall on AIX). We will either need a policy
or an explicit API to disable symbol exports on executables.
The primary purpose of the above-mentioned commit was to avoid passing
the -rdynamic flag to compilers on Linux that do not support it. In
this commit we restore the flag but only on GNU and Intel compilers
which are known to support it.
See issue #9985.
Default to "" for CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET if CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT is set. Also, add new error message to detect the case where there is a deployment target, but no SDK has been set. Fix args to STRING REGEX call so that it works even if _sdk_path variable is empty inside sanity check function.
We remove the shared library compile/link flags "-fPIC" and "-shared"
because they are not provided by all compilers on Linux. This allows us
to drop code from the Linux-XL-*.cmake files that erases the bad flags.
All other supported compilers already provide their correct flags for
Linux in their own platform information files.
We factor flags from Platform/Linux-PGI-Fortran.cmake into language
independent helper modules
Compiler/PGI.cmake
Platform/Linux-PGI.cmake
and invoke the macros from
Compiler/PGI-<lang>.cmake
Platform/Linux-PGI-<lang>.cmake
This enables general support for the PGI compilers.
The commit "Split GNU compiler information files" intended to move GNU
flags from the platform-wide Platform/SunOS.cmake module into
Platform/SunOS-GNU-<lang>.cmake
using a helper module Platform/SunOS-GNU.cmake to consolidate flags.
However, it accidentally put Fortran flags in the C language module and
left out the Fortran module altogether. This fixes those mistakes.
Several platform-wide linker flag variables are defined in
Modules/Platform/<os>.cmake files for C and then copied by the
Modules/CMake<lang>Information.cmake file for each language.
We now use this approach for the variables
CMAKE_EXE_EXPORTS_${lang}_FLAG
CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_SONAME_${lang}_FLAG
CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_CREATE_${lang}_FLAGS
to avoid duplication for multiple languages in each platform file.
The commit "Split GNU compiler information files" broke the settings of
CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_CREATE_${lang}_FLAGS
CMAKE_SHARED_MODULE_CREATE_${lang}_FLAGS
and started using just "-shared" for them. This worked when tested on newer
Mac machines, but older ones really need "-dynamiclib" and "-bundle" (which are
the documented flags anyway).
This moves GNU compiler info on Windows into new-style modules
Platform/Windows-GNU-<lang>.cmake
using language-independent helper module
Platform/Windows-GNU.cmake
to define macros consolidating the information.
This moves GNU compiler flags into new-style modules
Compiler/GNU-<lang>.cmake
Platform/<os>-GNU-<lang>.cmake
We use language-independent helper modules
Compiler/GNU.cmake
Platform/<os>-GNU.cmake
to define macros consolidating the information.
This is a GNU-specific option that should not be specified for all
compilers on Linux. It tells the GNU compiler to pass -export-dynamic
to the linker to export symbols from executables for use by plugins.
Since we provide the ENABLE_EXPORTS target property to do the same thing
in a cross-platform way, there is no need to pass -rdynamic always.
Since the option is not useful for GNU tools and breaks other tools on
Linux we simply remove it from CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_LINK_<lang>_FLAGS.
This also allows us to stop setting the variable in other Linux compiler
files just to erase the bad flag.
See issue #9985.
The Watcom tools do their own command-line parsing and do not accept
double-quotes. Instead we single-quote the target output name when
invoking wlink and other Watcom tools. This fixes support for spaces in
the target output directory path when it is not under the build tree.
We replace "/MD" with ifort-specific flags as follows:
/MD -> /threads /libs:dll
/MDd -> /threads /libs:dll /dbglibs
We also enable the "/MD" equivalent for all Fortran configurations.
Previously multithreaded dll runtimes were used for release builds and
threaded static runtimes for debug builds. For mixed Fortran C/C++
projects, this led to link warnings for Debug but not for Release.
See issue #8744.
We add Intel and MinGW Fortran linker options to create the import
library portion of a DLL. This allows other binaries to link to a
Fortran DLL.
We also update the Fortran test to use a .def file to specify exports
since there is no __declspec(dllexport) markup syntax in Fortran.
This commit re-writes Borland compiler build rules. We split the rules
into modern <os>-<id>-<lang> information modules but share a common
macro between languages to avoid duplication.
We also address a bug in the previous rules that would build some target
types against the static Borland runtime and others against the shared
Borland runtime in one build tree. Now we always use the shared runtime
as is the default in the rules for MS tools.
Block multiple inclusion because "Modules/CMakeCInformation.cmake"
includes "Platform/${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME}" even though the generic
module "CMakeSystemSpecificInformation.cmake" already included it.
The extra inclusion is a work-around to address issue #4772 without
intrusive platform file changes. Once those changes are made the
work-around and these include blockers can be removed. See issue #9656.
This commit re-orders the search path prefix list from
/
/usr
/usr/local
to
/usr/local
/
/usr
so that locally-installed software is preferred.
This makes the search consistent with the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard:
http://www.pathname.com/fhs/
See issue #9657.
GNU/kFreeBSD = FreeBSD kernel + userspace with glibc. Linux.cmake
doesn't contain anything too OS specific, so we can forward to it.
Here are outputs of /bin/uname on author's machine:
uname -p ==> i386
uname -o ==> GNU/kFreeBSD
uname -s ==> GNU/kFreeBSD
uname -r ==> 5.4-1-686
Patch from Modestas Vainius. See issue #9659.
This commit creates target and directory properties to enable the Intel
interprocedural optimization support on Linux. Enabling it adds the
compiler option '-ipo' and uses 'xiar' to create archives.
See issue #9615.
This moves platform-independent XL compiler flags into separate
"Compiler/XL-<lang>.cmake" modules. Platform-specific flags go in
"Platform/<os>-XL-<lang>.cmake" modules.
Since Haiku does not have /usr (and therefore /usr/local), this commit
changes the default install prefix to the equivalent directory of
/boot/common.
See issue #9607.
Previously we checked for this flag by parsing the version number of GCC
out of 'gcc --version', but this is not reliable because the format can
vary greatly. Now we run 'gcc -v --help' and look for '-isysroot' in
the list of options.
We also now store the result on a per-language basis in the per-compiler
info file "CMake<LANG>Compiler.cmake". This is necessary to make it
accessible from try-compile projects so that they generate correctly.
In Platform/Linux.cmake we add GNU flags as default for the platform
which breaks non-GNU compilers. Later we should refactor these flag
files to put compiler-specific flags only in files loaded for each
compiler. Until then this commit fixes the XL C++ compiler flags on
Linux by erasing the GNU flags. See issue #9469.
The commit "Split Intel compiler information files" moved some Linux
specific flags into the platform-independent Intel compiler info files.
This moves them back.
This moves platform-independent SunPro compiler flags into separate
"Compiler/SunPro-<lang>.cmake" modules. Platform-specific flags are
left untouched.
The Borland librarian tool "tlib" requires that the output target name
be quoted if it contains the character '-' (and perhaps a few others).
This commit restores the use of the TARGET_QUOTED rule variable
replacement for this purpose. Otherwise no static library can have a
'-' in its name.
This problem was exposed by the 'Testing' test when it builds the
pcStatic library with the '-dbg' suffix.
IBM rebranded its VisualAge compiler to XL starting at version 8.0. We
use the compiler id "XL" for newer versions and "VisualAge" for older
versions. We now also recognize the "z/OS" compiler, which is distinct
from XL.
The CMAKE_Fortran_DEFINE_FLAG value applies to the IBM Fortran compilers
on all platforms. This moves the setting to the platform-independent
compiler information file.
This removes the file-wise installation rules for Modules and Templates
and instead installs the whole directories. This approach is much less
error-prone. The old approach was left from before CMake had the
install(DIRECTORY) command.
This teaches Modules/Platform/Linux-SunPro-CXX.cmake the -rpath-link flag. The
SunPro C++ compiler does not have a '-Wl,' option, so we just pass the flag
directly.
This problem was exposed by the ExportImport test now that it links an
executable through the C++ compiler with the -rpath-link flag.
On HP-UX machines some system libraries appear in architecture-specific
implicit linker search paths. We need to add these paths to our system
library search path. However, at the time we construct the search path
we do not know the target architecture.
A full solution requires re-organizing platform configuration files so
that the target architecture can be known when needed. Until that
happens we can avoid the problem by searching in both 32-bit and 64-bit
implicit link directories. By telling CMake that they are implicit
directories the generated link lines will never pass the paths, leaving
the linker free to find the library of the proper architecture even if
the find_library call finds the wrong one.
This adds the Modules/Platform/OpenVMS.cmake platform file for OpenVMS.
We just use Unix-like rules to work with the GNV compiler front-end.
A problem with process execution currently prevents CMake link scripts
from working, so we avoid using them.
HP-UX uses both .sl and .so as extensions for shared libraries. This
teaches CMake to recognize .so shared libraries so they are treated
properly during link dependency analysis.
This enables the --enable-auto-import linker flag on Cygwin when linking
executables. It works with the old gcc 3.x compiler and is necessary
for the new gcc 4.x compiler. See issue #9071.
This creates variable CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES to
specify implicit include directories on a per-language basis. This
replaces the previous platform-wide variable. It is necessary to
avoid explicit specification of -I/usr/include on some compilers
(such as HP aCC) because:
1.) It may break ordering among system include directories defined
internally by the compiler, thus getting wrong system headers.
2.) It tells the compiler to treat the system include directory
as a user include directory, enabling warnings in the headers.
See issue #8598.
We used to suppress generation of -I/usr/include (and on OSX also
-I/usr/local/include). This behavior seems to cause more trouble than
it's worth, so I'm removing it until someone encounters the original
problem it fixed. See issue #8598.
Some OS X linkers want a 'dylib_' prefix on the -compatiblity_version
and -current_version flags while others do not. This passes the flags
through gcc instead since it never wants the prefix and translates the
flags for the linker correctly.
On 64-bit Windows there may be two Program Files folders, one for 32-bit
binaries and one for 64-bit binaries. When we compute
CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH we should put both folders in the path.
