All commands accepting file paths should normalize the slashes so that
the string-represented names can be compared reliably. The commands
add_library and add_executable have done this for years. We taught
add_custom_command to normalize its OUTPUT names in commit a75a0a14
(Normalize add_custom_command OUTPUT names, 2010-12-15). We handled a
special case of the DEPENDS option in commit 7befc007 (Handle trailing
slashes on add_custom_command DEPENDS, 2011-01-26).
Teach both add_custom_command and add_custom_target to normalize slashes
of DEPENDS files up front. This approach subsumes the above-mentioned
special case so remove the one line added for it but keep its test.
Extend the CustomCommand test to check that slash count mismatches
between custom command OUTPUT and DEPENDS can still be linked correctly.
A search-and-replace in commit 8d32d229 (make commands lower case by
default, 2007-10-10) accidentally changed the variable reference
CMAKE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES_BEFORE to CMAKE_include_directories_BEFORE.
Change it back.
The curses dialog (ccmake) allows variables to be specified on the
command line. If any of these variables is used during any configure
iteration or during generate we must not warn about it.
The Qt dialog (cmake-gui) allows variables to be added and removed in
the GUI interactively. If a variable is added, removed, and then added
again we must still warn if it is unused.
Set target property RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY explicitly on ProcessFwd9x
and EncodeExecutable so that we know exactly where the executables will
exist on disk.
At some point in the past VS 2010 failed some tests with custom commands when
relative paths were not used. It seems that those problems have been fixed.
However, the relative paths apparently are appended to the current working
directoy before vs accesses the file. So, with a long path, relative paths
cause it to create a combined path that is too long.
86cb17b Pass include directories with response files to GNU on Windows
9a0b9bc Optionally pass include directories with response files
6e8a67f Generate target-wide flags before individual build rules
d099546 Factor old-style -D flags out from -I flag generation
Some samples of things that got unnoticed by our nightly builds:
$ JAVA_HOME= mvn
Warning: JAVA_HOME environment variable is not set.
...
$ mvn

[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD FAILURE
...
Create platform option CMAKE_<lang>_USE_RESPONSE_FILE_FOR_INCLUDES to
enable use of response files for passing the list of include directories
to compiler command lines.
This switches the internal generation order but does not affect the
results. The new order ensures that any internal state changed by
generating target-wide flags is known when the individual rules that use
those flags are generated.
Move the GetDefineFlags call from cmLocalGenerator::GetIncludeFlags to
all call sites so that the method exclusively constructs a string of
include search path flags.
Avoid GCC warning
warning: suggest parentheses around ‘&&’ within ‘||’ [-Wparentheses]
added by commit c6a8e4c7 (The link interface of MODULE libraries is
empty, 2011-03-09).
Several major Linux distributions still do not provide Git >= 1.6.5.0 in
their stable package lists. Prior to commit 1173cc4a (Update Git
submodules with --recursive, 2011-02-22) CTest was able to use older Git
versions but simply silently failed to update submodules recursively.
Instead of failing with older Git versions preserve the status quo and
add a warning in the update log. Users testing projects with recursive
submodules may simply update to a Git new enough to support them.
MODULE libraries cannot be linked into other libraries and executables
(just like executables without ENABLE_EXPORTS). Set the MODULE target
link interface to be empty. This allows such targets to be installed in
an EXPORT set without including all their private implementation
dependencies.
Commit afd7d4ca (Add target property LINK_SEARCH_END_STATIC, 2008-01-31)
defined a property to ensure that static runtime libraries get selected.
Add a property to specify that all libraries whose type is unknown, such
as "-lm", should be assumed static. Furthermore it assumes that an
option such as "-static" is also used so that no initial -Bstatic is
needed.

Using sort results in a possibly-modified sorting
when all elements are "tied" - use stable_sort instead
to preserve the original ordering of tied elements.
The Clang compiler warns about extra parenthesis in the code
if ((form->curpage == field->page))
~ ^ ~
because the idiom is commonly used when an assignment is intended
instead of a comparison. Remove the extra enclosing layer.
Since CMake 2.6.3 add_custom_target() has a SOURCES option, this was not
yet considered in the C::B generator.
Also, now GENERATED files are not added to the project.

Now a virtual folder "Subprojects" is created, and in this virtual folder
is a linked resource for each project().
This can be considered a fix for #11657
Alex
The Intel Fortran plugin forgets to create the output directory into
which it will write a DLL's import library. Utilize the fix added by
commit f4b3bdc6 (Create an exe's implib output dir for VS, 2009-06-15)
and generalized by commit 764ac980 (Generalize exe implib dir creation
for VS, 2009-06-16). Create a pre-link rule to make the directory.
To avoid name clashes.
Before this commit, name clashes can occur when invoking gcov on a
project that uses the same file name in different directories. The
--preserve-paths flag ensures all file names have a complete path,
avoiding name clashes.
Thanks to "McBen <viertelvor12@gmx.net>" for the patch.
(Did not preserve original commit author information because
we have a push check for first and last name, and do not
accept authors with only an alias...)
Make it clear that list subcommands that modify the list
do so in the current CMake variable scope, regardless of
the original scope of the list variable involved.
RPM cannot easily 'merge' differents directory into a single RPM
with shared prefix. So more flexibility has been added to generic
CPackGenerator in order to let the specific generator chose the
local installation directory for each component.
With this commit, the --graphviz option now also generates dot files
which show which other targets depend on some target.
So, now there is
* a global dot-file which shows all targets and dependencies
* a dot file which shows on what a target Foo depends
* a dot file which shows which other targets depend on Foo
Alex
This is similar e.g. to CTEST_CUSTOM_WARNING_EXCEPTION from ctest.
GRAPHVIZ_TARGET_IGNORE_REGEX is not supported anymore.
I hope this is ok, since this was 100% undocumented and can't
break a build.
Alex
Patch from Christian Ehrlicher.
By setting GRAPHVIZ_EXTERNAL_LIBS to TRUE in CMakeGraphVizOptions.cmake
you can now exclude external libraries from the produced dot file.
I.e. then you see only the dependencies within your project.

To get rc defines to work in the VS10 IDE requires \" when
constructing PreprocessorDefinitions strings. This is different
than defines for cl.
Also, per-file rc defines were not being generated. Fix that, too.
During a try_compile cmGlobalGenerator::EnableLanguage uses results from
the outer project. Reject attempts to enable languages in the test
project that are not "ready" in the outer project. Mark a language as
"ready" when all its information has been loaded and we are ready to
generate build rules.
This also avoids infinite recursion introduced by commit 295b5b60 (Honor
CMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE in try_compile, 2010-06-29) for projects
that set CMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE to a file that uses try_compile.
The file is loaded along with the information for a given langauge so
the language is not yet "ready".
If CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM is set to devenv, then GenerateBuildCommand
uses it just like we used to do for VS8 and VS9. Otherwise, it
still uses MSBuild.
This will let us run the CMake test suite through devenv and make
sure all the solution and project files we generate are load-able
and build-able by the VS 2010 IDE, not just MSBuild.

WriteCLSources should skip source files with "obj" extensions
since WriteObjSources has already written them into the vcxproj
file. Likewise, WriteGroupSources should skip source files with
"obj" extensions to avoid receiving "item ... already exists under
the filter" project-load-time error messages from Visual Studio.
If the source-file form of try_compile is given a file name with
multiple '.' characters such as "a.b.c" use only the shortest extension
to check the language. This is the expected behavior and is consistent
with normal language extension determination in the method
cmSourceFileLocation::UpdateExtension.
Set CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY explicitly in try_compile projects so
that the COPY_FILE feature knows where to look. This makes the feature
robust against CMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE files that set variables
like CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY or EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH.
This variable was introduced to help authors override CMake's default
platform information before any of it is cached. State this clearly in
the documentation. Explicitly discourage use for other purposes.
Previously this was used only in multi-configuration generators to
choose the configuration of try_compile and try_run at their build time.
Teach CMake to honor the variable in single-configuration generators as
the CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE.
Factor out generation of SccProjectName, SccLocalPath, and SccProvider
from cmLocalVisualStudio7Generator::WriteProjectStart and call it from
cmLocalVisualStudio7Generator::WriteProjectStartFortran too.
On Windows platforms source files may contain '\' in include directives:
#include "a\b.h"
Normalize these while scanning to use forward slashes. CMake will
convert from forward slashes to the direction preferred by the native
build tools when writing the path to 'depend.make' files.
Show "<variable|string>" explicitly in if() case documentation whenever
auto-dereferencing occurs. Reference its presence from the explanation
at the bottom.
The signature of get_test_property uses argument order
test property VAR
not
test VAR property
Also document the actual behavior when the property is not found.
Some values simply cannot be escaped properly in all contexts for all
native build tools. Document known limitations after the disclaimer
that states so.
Previously the error message for code like
add_executable(myexe does_not_exist/mysrc.c)
mentioned only that "mysrc.c" is not found. Report the directory too.
Remove the example explained by the misleading phrase "CMake will treat
it as if you wrote". This was originally added by commit a73071ca
(modified the if command to address bug 9123 some, 2009-06-12). Later
related information elsewhere in the documentation was corrected and
made precise by commit cb185d93 (Fix if() command and CMP0012 OLD/NEW
behavior, 2009-10-27) but the misleading example was not corrected.
Replace the example with a correct one that more directly covers the
case that typically surprises newcomers. Avoid recommending a "correct"
way to write code because this behavior is always specific to each case.
Also update the main documentation of the behavior to be more explicit.
