This topic was never tested without some follow-up commits. The
GetCacheEntryValue API returns a pointer to memory freed on return.
It will have to be revised along with the rest of the original topic.
At the start of each configure step we already reset the generator
selection (CMAKE_GENERATOR) to match that loaded for the current
project. Add missing code to reset the generator platform and toolset
(CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM and CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET) also so that they
do not leak across projects.
Output sent through these APIs is logically part of the CMake process
output. Capture it with callbacks and display it in the cmake-gui
output window along with other messages.
Use the CPack DragNDrop generator instead of the deprecated PackageMaker
tool to package CMake itself. This provides an installation experience
that is more consistent with other products on OS X and allows users to
select the destination directory easily. It also avoids installing
"/private/var/db/receipts/com.Kitware.CMake.*" receipts that must be
removed by "pkgutil --forget com.Kitware.CMake" before another version
of CMake can be installed.
The DragNDrop installer does not support a post-flight script, so drop
our configuration of it. The cmake-gui has an option for installing
symbolic links to enable command-line use. In practice users may simply
add "/Applications/CMake.app/Contents/bin" to their PATH instead.
Drop the icon file extension. This fixes the desktop file validation
message:
"CMakeSetup32.png" for key "Icon" in group "Desktop Entry" is an icon
name with an extension, but there should be no extension as described in
the Icon Theme Specification if the value is not an absolute path

Override the QT_QTMAIN_LIBRARY cache variable with a regular
variable in the Qt 5 configuration. This avoids linking with the
Qt 4 version of the WinMain library.
Because we already call [to|from]Local8Bit() with C strings where we are supposed to,
we do not need to specify UTF-8 encoding when converting C strings to QString.
Since commit 1a1b737c (stringapi: Use strings for generator names,
2014-02-24) cmExternalMakefileProjectGenerator::CreateFullGeneratorName
expects a std::string instead of const char*. When no extra generator
name is available, pass an empty string to avoid NULL dereference.
Store variable types together with their names in the variable completion
list so that the type is automatically recovered when you select a variable.
Keep variable names and types in separate lists. This removes the :TYPE
string from completion list and the Name field and makes variable search
easier. The variable names and types are now kept in two different
settings - AddVariableNames and AddVariableTypes. Drop the old
AddVariableCompletionEntries setting.
Download http://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/lgpl-2.1.txt and place
it as Licenses/LGPLv2.1.txt in our source tree. When building cmake-gui,
use option CMake_GUI_DISTRIBUTE_WITH_Qt_LGPL to enable notification
in the "About" dialog of how the distribution of Qt is licensed.
Install the license file as ${CMAKE_ROOT}/Licenses/LGPLv2.1.txt so that
the dialog can display a path to it.
06b0dbe OS X: Drop version number from CMake.app bundle name (#11693)

Always name the application bundle "CMake.app". Users can rename it
after installation if they wish. This is the typical approach used by
OS X applications, including Xcode. It allows CMake to be upgraded
without manually re-running CMake in every build tree to update the path
to CMake. It also makes the executable location in the CMake build tree
more predicatable.
Rename cmSystemTools::FindExecutableDirectory to FindCMakeResources.
Teach it to compute the locations of cmake, ctest, cpack, ccmake, and
cmake-gui executables, and the location of CMAKE_ROOT. Provide this
information from static cmSystemTools::Get<resource>() methods.
Refactor code that needs these locations to use the new APIs.
Teach FindCMakeResources to use the OS X system API to lookup the
executable location. When running from the CMake build tree itself,
leave a file in the tree that FindCMakeResources can use to read the
location of the source tree. This avoids the need to compile the source
tree location into a binary that may be installed and used without the
source tree.
Teach the QtDialog on OS X to create a "cmake-gui" symlink in the build
tree next to "cmake" and the other tools, as is already done in the
install tree for the application bundle. This ensures a consistent set
of executables are available in one directory.

Make the standard --help-* options available from all command-line
tools. Drop options that are no longer supported:
--copyright, --help-full, --help-html, --help-man,
--help-compatcommands, --help-custom-modules
De-duplicate Help/manual/*.1.rst help options by using an
OPTIONS_HELP.txt file included from each manual.
