Brad King 5d9934312d Do not link private dependent shared libraries on OS X > 10.4
The default OS X 10.4 linker incorrectly searches for dependencies of
linked shared libraries only under the -isysroot location.  It fails to
find dependencies of linked shared libraries in cases such as the
ExportImport test.  It produces errors like:

 /usr/libexec/gcc/i686-apple-darwin8/4.0.1/ld: warning can't open dynamic library:
 libtestLib3Imp.dylib
 referenced from: /.../ExportImport/Root/lib/libtestLib3lib.1.2.dylib
 (checking for undefined symbols may be affected) (No such file or directory, errno = 2)
 /usr/libexec/gcc/i686-apple-darwin8/4.0.1/ld: Undefined symbols: _testLib3Imp
 referenced from libtestLib3lib expected to be defined in
 libtestLib3Imp.dylib

or with CMAKE_SKIP_RPATH off to enable install_name in the Export side:

 /usr/libexec/gcc/i686-apple-darwin8/4.0.1/ld: warning can't open dynamic library:
 /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk/.../ExportImport/Export/impl/libtestLib3Imp.dylib
 referenced from: /.../ExportImport/Export/libtestLib3lib.1.2.dylib
 (checking for undefined symbols may be affected) (No such file or directory, errno = 2)
 /usr/libexec/gcc/i686-apple-darwin8/4.0.1/ld: Undefined symbols:_testLib3Imp
 referenced from libtestLib3lib expected to be defined in
 /.../ExportImport/Export/impl/libtestLib3Imp.dylib

Note how "/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk" is prepended to the dependent
library path.

Commit 2cff26fa (Support linking to shared libs with dependent libs,
2008-01-31) and commit 82fcaebe (Pass dependent library search path to
linker on some platforms, 2008-02-01) worked around the problem by
defining platform variable CMAKE_LINK_DEPENDENT_LIBRARY_FILES.  It tells
CMake to link to dependent libraries explicitly by their path thus
telling the linker where to find them.

Unfortunately the workaround had the side effect of linking dependent
libraries and defeats most benefits of LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES.
Fortunately OS X 10.5 and above do not need to find transitive
dependencies at all so we can avoid the workaround on Modern OS X.

This is CMake, the cross-platform, open-source make system.
CMake is distributed under the BSD License, see Copyright.txt.
For documentation see the Docs/ directory once you have built CMake
or visit http://www.cmake.org.


Building CMake
==============


Supported Platforms
-------------------

MS Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, HP-UX, IRIX, BeOS, QNX

Other UNIX-like operating systems may work too out of the box, if not
it shouldn't be a major problem to port CMake to this platform. Contact the
CMake mailing list in this case: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake


If you don't have any previous version of CMake already installed
--------------------------------------------------------------

* UNIX/Mac OSX/MinGW/MSYS/Cygwin:

You need to have a compiler and a make installed.
Run the bootstrap script you find the in the source directory of CMake.
You can use the --help option to see the supported options.
You may want to use the --prefix=<install_prefix> option to specify a custom
installation directory for CMake. You can run the bootstrap script from
within the CMake source directory or any other build directory of your
choice. Once this has finished successfully, run make and make install.
So basically it's the same as you may be used to from autotools-based
projects:

$ ./bootstrap; make; make install


* Other Windows:

You need to download and install a binary release of CMake in order to build
CMake.  You can get these releases from
http://www.cmake.org/HTML/Download.html .  Then proceed with the instructions
below.


You already have a version of CMake installed
---------------------------------------------

You can build CMake as any other project with a CMake-based build system:
run the installed CMake on the sources of this CMake with your preferred
options and generators. Then build it and install it.
For instructions how to do this, see http://www.cmake.org/HTML/RunningCMake.html
