Brad King 86578eccf2 Simplify CMake per-source license notices
Per-source copyright/license notice headers that spell out copyright holder
names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.
Precise contributor information is already maintained automatically by the
version control tool.  Ultimately it is the receiver of a file who is
responsible for determining its licensing status, and per-source notices are
merely a convenience.  Therefore it is simpler and more accurate for
each source to have a generic notice of the license name and references to
more detailed information on copyright holders and full license terms.

Our `Copyright.txt` file now contains a list of Contributors whose names
appeared source-level copyright notices.  It also references version control
history for more precise information.  Therefore we no longer need to spell
out the list of Contributors in each source file notice.

Replace CMake per-source copyright/license notice headers with a short
description of the license and links to `Copyright.txt` and online information
available from "https://cmake.org/licensing".  The online URL also handles
cases of modules being copied out of our source into other projects, so we
can drop our notices about replacing links with full license text.

Run the `Utilities/Scripts/filter-notices.bash` script to perform the majority
of the replacements mechanically.  Manually fix up shebang lines and trailing
newlines in a few files.  Manually update the notices in a few files that the
script does not handle.

Kitware Robot d9fd2f5402 Revise C++ coding style using clang-format
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/clang-format.bash` script to update
all our C++ code to a new style defined by `.clang-format`.
Use `clang-format` version 3.8.

Eric NOULARD cd7b8a03f5 CPack: Refactor API in order to handle multi-file packages
The multi-argument CompressFiles(...) method has been replace by the
no-argument PackageFiles() method and 3 more member variables.  This
will enable implemention of multi-package generators.  Now each specific
generator (which overloads PackageFiles()) may decide to change the name
and/or the number of generated package files.

Brad King 96afb12087 Convert CMake to OSI-approved BSD License
This converts the CMake license to a pure 3-clause OSI-approved BSD
License.  We drop the previous license clause requiring modified
versions to be plainly marked.  We also update the CMake copyright to
cover the full development time range.

David Cole 5beb1da7f7 ENH: Add CPACK_SET_DESTDIR handling to enable packaging of installed files in absolute locations. With this setting on, cpack will set the DESTDIR env var when building the package so that files end up in their intended locations. Default behavior is not to set DESTDIR for backwards compatibility. Helps address issue #4993 and issue #5257. Also, remove unused CPACK_USE_DESTDIR variable. ENH: Add variable CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX to allow overriding the CPack GetPackagingInstallPrefix from a project's CMakeLists file if necessary. Could be used to remove the annoying /usr prefix still used by default in the Mac PackageMaker generator. 2007-10-31 08:50:17 -04:00
