This commit introduces the ability to add custom targets
that correspond to individual ExternalProject steps.
The main motivation behind this new feature is to drive
sub-project based dashboard steps as external projects
with separate targets for update, configure, build and
test output. This makes it easy to construct a ctest -S
script to drive such a dashboard.
With no STEP_TARGETS defined, there are no additional
custom targets introduced, to minimize the chatter in
the target name space. Clients may define STEP_TARGETS
on a per-ExternalProject_Add basis, or at the directory
level by setting the EP_STEP_TARGETS directory property.
When a module is first contributed Kitware has made no modifications on
which to place a copyright. Require the contributor to have a copyright
notice, but not specifically by Kitware.
Add platform configuration variable CMAKE_SYSTEM_IGNORE_PATH and user
configuration variable CMAKE_IGNORE_PATH. These specify a set of
directories that will be ignored by all the find commands. Update
FindPackageTest so that several cases will fail without a functioning
CMAKE_IGNORE_PATH.

Pass the test when there is "Submission problem" in the output. This is
at least applicable to XMLRPC. Full error message is below:
------
Submission problem: Curl failed to perform HTTP POST request. curl_easy_perform() says: <url> malformed (-504)
.
Problems when submitting via XML-RPC
------
Commit c3781efb (Support Git upstream branch rewrites, 2010-06-08)
assumed that ".git/FETCH_HEAD" exists inside the source tree. Fix the
implementation to handle a work tree using a ".git file" to link to its
repository. Use "git rev-parse --git-dir" to locate the real .git dir.

If GIT_EXECUTABLE is not passed in, and is not available from
DartConfiguration.tcl or CTestConfiguration.ini, then make one
more last ditch attempt to get it from Update.xml, if there is
an Update.xml. For dashboards that have successfully done a
ctest_update call, there should be an Update.xml in the Testing
subdir of the binary tree. Parse that file for the git executable
recorded in the <UpdateCommand> element.
And make this test pass on those RogueResearch dashboard machines!
Git's diff-tree format has no '\n'-terminated blank line at the end of
its commit message body block if there are no diff lines. Instead the
message body is terminated by '\0' and there is no diff section. Teach
CTest to parse the format in this case.
If GIT_EXECUTABLE is not passed into the test, but the source
tree is a git checkout, then use GitCommand or UpdateCommand
from the ctest ini file to set its value. Presumably, a dashboard
running the test suite had to have set this properly in order
to do the ctest_update step.
Optionally hide the output of each external project build step by
wrapping its command in a launcher script. Make output available in log
files instead. This simplifies the output of external project builds.
At this point, CTestTest3 causes more problems than it's worth.
It uses CVS to grab a remote (over the network) copy of kwsys
code for testing. This causes some sort of problem nearly every
night on the nightly CMake dashboards. Worse: it causes problems
on different machines on different nights, then the next day, it's
fine again. So: remove this test and monitor the coverage.
If we lose a significant portion of code coverage, I will revert
this commit and re-activate the test. However, if we do not lose
a significant portion of code coverage, I will remove the code
for the test as well as removing it from the CMakeLists.txt file.
Brad King and I discussed this over the last few weeks, and we both
think we have sufficient coverage of all the checkout and update code
in other locally (non-network) based tests.
On the other hand, even if we do take a mild hit on coverage temporarily,
it should be relatively easy to increase our coverage again by adding
bits to those other locally based tests.
The bootstrap script works under MSYS, so test it. Use a launcher batch
file since 'ctest --build-and-test' is a Windows program and will not
honor the shebang line in the script.
Even though this test is checking that the ctest running it can handle
test output without newlines we should run the just-built CMake binary.
This allows the MemCheck test mode to check the correct CMake.
Use 'git fetch' followed by 'git reset' to update the source tree. This
is better than 'git pull' because it can handle a rewritten upstream
branch and does not leave local modifications. After fetch, parse
FETCH_HEAD to find the merge head that 'git pull' would choose to track
the upstream branch. Then reset to the selected head.
In the normal fast-forward case the behavior remains unchanged.
However, now local modifications and commits will be erased, and
upstream rewrites are handled smoothly. This ensures that the upstream
branch is tested as expected.
Teach (create|run)_dashboard_script macros to treat the argument as the
name of a build tree. Append '.cmake' to generate the dashboard script
name. This allows future re-use of the macros for multiple test
scripts.
Use it from ExternalProject and the ExternalProject test's
CMakeLists file rather than having duplicate find_program calls.
Add logic so that we do not try to use *.cmd variants of git
programs when using the MSYS Makefiles generator. Should fix
the last remaining dashboard issue with the new ExternalProject
git support additions.
Also, correct minor problem regarding placement of the local git
repo during test execution. On clean builds, it was being placed
incorrectly because of the ../.. relative reference. Use an absolute
path to place the local git repo in the proper directory, and only
use the relative reference when referring to it.
The Intel C compiler for Linux does not seem to reject any bad flags or
object files on its link lines. Work around the problem by using a
preprocessor #error directive to ensure that BADFLAG appears in the
build output. This does not really achieve the purpose of the tests but
it allows them to pass.
Double quote executable names that may have spaces in them.
Do not run the new git portions of the test on machines that
have git < version 1.6.5 on them.
