34ea1f15 Utilities/Sphinx: Add option to build 'text' format
Describe the meaning of each version component in more detail in the
documentation of CMAKE_VERSION. Simplify the per-component version
variable documentation by referencing the main variable.
Include information about how to compare version strings. Also add
an historical note about the version scheme used prior to commit
v2.8.2~105^2~4 (New version scheme to support branchy workflow,
2010-04-23).
Add a release/dev.txt file and include it from release/index.rst in
development versions. Add a "Changes Since Release" section with a
toctree that globs adjacent "dev/*" documents. Add a sample topic
document explaining how topic-specific release note documents work.
This approach will allow developers to write release notes for their
changes as they are made. The release manager may then consolidate and
organize the notes for a specific release version.
Add a release/index.rst document titled "CMake Release Notes" to hold
the toctree for release notes. Add a "Release Notes" section to the
top-level html document index to link to the new document.
The old documentation stated that "all header files" were considered,
which was not true for any sensible definition of "all header files".
Only header files with certain names are considered.
Document the filename patterns matched for parsing.
4271a4ed Help: Add information about INTERFACE_AUTOUIC_OPTIONS.
7935f4de Help: Note that AUTOMOC consumes the defines and includes from targets.
2739a6f9 Help: Move Qt tool invocation information to a generic cmake-qt manual.
Add an introduction about the use of different package types, and the
ability to use Qt 4 and 5 versions together in a single buildsystem.
Add a section about automatic linking of the qtmain.lib library and
how to disable it.
Teach the project() command to set variables
{PROJECT,<PROJECT-NAME>}_VERSION{,_MAJOR,_MINOR,_PATCH,_TWEAK}
holding the project version number and its components. Add project()
command option "VERSION" to specify the version explicitly, and default
to the empty string when it is not given.
Since this clears variables when no VERSION is given, this may change
behavior for existing projects that set the version variables themselves
prior to calling project(). Add policy CMP0048 for compatibility.
Suggested-by: Alex Neundorf <neundorf@kde.org>
Teach the project() command to recognize an optional "LANGUAGES"
keyword after the project name and prior to the list of languages.
Do not allow multiple copies of the keyword. If the keyword is
specified and no languages are listed, imply NONE.
Introduce policy CMP0047 to control resetting the id for
compatibility.
De-duplicate content in the QNX platform file by including the GNU
one. QNX is a form of GNU platform.
Do not clear CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_${lang}_FLAGS variables. They
are populated again later by the Compiler/GNU.cmake file anyway.
Modify the CMAKE_CXX_COMPILE_OBJECT variable only when the QCC
compiler id is in use, and the language is CXX. Use the QNX
recommended flag for QCC instead of the gcc compatible -x flag.
Populate new module files to handle system includes and depfiles
when using the QCC compiler.
Remove code which unsets the system include and depfiles related
variables. When a GNU driver is used instead of the QCC one, the
appropriate flags will be used. These variables were previously
cleared for lowest-common-denominator compatibility with both
drivers.
Define a new 'CMAKE_CONFIGURE_DEPENDS' directory property that projects
can use to specify input files to the CMake configuration process.
Extend the RunCMake.Configure test to verify that the build system
re-runs CMake when this input changes.
Add documentation entries for variables
CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES
CMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET
CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT
Explain what each does and when/how they should be set.
Remove independent doc listing for Qt4ConfigurationSettings, Qt4Macros
and UseQt4. These are implementation details.
Recommend the use of IMPORTED targets.
Remove references to the UseQt4 file, which is obsolete in light of
the IMPORTED targets.
Add documentation for automatic tool invocation and options.
Remove reference to variables which should not be needed in modern
implementations.
73e9340 get_target_property: Error on non-existent target.
ab9f58f FindQt4: Ensure target exists before calling get_target_property.
37ebeb9 FindQt4: Fix use of get_target_property to use actual target name.
6aabb6a Genex: Use case-sensitive comparison for COMPILER_ID.
5bb53f6 cmTarget: Deprecate COMPILE_DEFINITIONS_ properties with a policy.

5169130 Help: Document the target properties exported to IMPORTED targets.
ee21f1c CompatibleInterface: Test debugging of not-set property.
80e9fe9 Help: Note that language-specific 'built-ins' are set by the project command.
0b5bf8a Help: Mention CMAKE_DISABLE_FIND_PACKAGE_<PackageName> in package docs.
28c865b Tests: simplify Qt4 target usage
6cfe6b8 Help: Fix typo: 'target' -> 'target property'
b7deca4 Test: Remove obsolete commented code.
9c9f69f Genex: Make EQUAL support upper case binary literals
6eb3218 Genex: Fix case of methods in the dag checker.
646c6ec Genex: Use a preprocessor loop to implement transitive DAG check.
711fb38 Genex: List transitive properties and methods as a table, not two lists.
802a28f Add cmHasLiteralSuffix API.
This is consistent with other similar expressions such as PLATFORM_ID,
and makes the CONFIGURATION expression obsolete.
Fix an off-by-one error in
GeneratorExpressionContent::EvaluateParameters exposed by a unit test.
Remove the test for 'bad' nullary use of $<CONFIG>.
Add a unit test to verify that $<CONFIG> and $<CONFIGURATION> have
the same value.
Describe how to define a buildsystem of binary targets, how to
express dependencies between them, how to add build specifications,
how to specify usage requirements, transitive and compatible
propagation and the various pseudo targets.
There is not really any need to. Downstreams can either rely on it
being provided by CMake, or copy and distribute it.
Change the documented include for the find_dependency macro.
Teach the export command to handle export sets defined by invocations
of install(TARGETS ... EXPORT foo). This makes maintenance of targets
exported to both the build tree and install tree trivial.
Revise the organization introduced in commit 2c7cd95c (Help: Organize
top-level index, 2013-10-28) to drop "Other Manuals" and put them in
"Reference Manuals" because the distinction between them has blurred.
Perhaps a better breakdown of the reference manuals will emerge in
the future.
While at it, sort the reference manual toctree by name.
Manually update reStructuredText formatting. Use a definition list
for the possible if() tests supported. Add inline literal markup
as appropriate. Also make minor wording tweaks to make it flow
better with the new markup.
259bf09 Make the cmStrictTargetComparison operate on const cmTarget*.
8cc3cdb Help: Fix up the VISIBILITY_INLINES_HIDDEN docs.
1396ab8 Don't generate self-references for system include directories.
Since commit 5f5c92b9 (VS: Add internal APIs to find MSBuild,
devenv/VCExpress, and msdev, 2013-11-13) the VS generators have
known how to lookup the locations of their build tools directly.
Expose this information to CMake language code by defining new
variables to hold the paths to these tools.

Document PDB_NAME and PDB_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY as applying only to shared
libraries and executables. Add an explicit note to explain why they
do not work for static libraries.
