+CMake 3.14 Release Notes
+************************
+
+.. only:: html
+
+  .. contents::
+
+Changes made since CMake 3.13 include the following.
+
+New Features
+============
+
+Generators
+----------
+
+* The :generator:`Visual Studio 16 2019` generator was added.  This is
+  experimental and based on "Visual Studio 2019 Preview 2" because this
+  version of VS has not been released.
+
+  The VS 2019 generator differs from generators for earlier versions
+  in that it does not provide variants that specify the target platform
+  in the generator name.  Instead :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM`
+  must be used, e.g. through the ``-A`` command-line option.  Furthermore,
+  the default target platform (architecture) is now based on the *host*
+  platform.  The VS host toolset selection is now based on the host
+  architecture as well.
+
+File-Based API
+--------------
+
+* A file-based api for clients to get semantic buildsystem information
+  has been added.  See the :manual:`cmake-file-api(7)` manual.
+  This is intended to replace the :manual:`cmake-server(7)` mode for IDEs.
+
+Platforms
+---------
+
+* CMake now supports :ref:`Cross Compiling for iOS, tvOS, or watchOS`
+  using simple toolchain files.
+
+Command-Line
+------------
+
+* The :manual:`cmake(1)` :ref:`Build Tool Mode <Build Tool Mode>`
+  (``cmake --build``) gained ``--verbose`` and ``-v`` options to
+  specify verbose build output. Some generators such as Xcode don't
+  support this option currently.
+
+* The :manual:`cmake(1)` ``-E compare_files`` command learned a new
+  ``--ignore-eol`` option to specify that end-of-line differences
+  (e.g. LF vs CRLF) should be ignored when comparing files.
+
+* The :manual:`cmake-gui(1)` dialog gained new ``-S`` and ``-B`` arguments to
+  explicitly specify source and build directories.
+
+Commands
+--------
+
+* The :command:`file` command learned a new sub-command, ``READ_SYMLINK``,
+  which can be used to determine the path that a symlink points to.
+
+* The :command:`file` command gained a ``SIZE`` mode to get the size
+  of a file on disk.
+
+* The :command:`find_package` command learned to optionally resolve
+  symbolic links in the paths to package configuration files.
+  See the :variable:`CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_RESOLVE_SYMLINKS` variable.
+
+* The :command:`get_filename_component` command gained new
+  ``LAST_EXT`` and ``NAME_WLE`` variants to work with the
+  extension after the last ``.`` in the name.
+
+* The :command:`if` command gained support for checking if cache variables
+  are defined with the  ``DEFINED CACHE{VAR}`` syntax.
+
+* The :command:`install(CODE)` and :command:`install(SCRIPT)` commands
+  learned to support generator expressions.  See policy :policy:`CMP0087`.
+
+* The :command:`install(TARGETS)` command learned how to install to an
+  appropriate default directory for a given target type, based on
+  variables from the :module:`GNUInstallDirs` module and built-in defaults,
+  in lieu of a ``DESTINATION`` argument.
+
+* The :command:`install(FILES)` and :command:`install(DIRECTORY)` commands
+  learned a new set of parameters for installing files as a file type,
+  setting the destination based on the appropriate variables from
+  :module:`GNUInstallDirs` and built-in defaults, in lieu of a
+  ``DESTINATION`` argument.
+
+* The :command:`list` operations ``REMOVE_ITEM``, ``REMOVE_DUPLICATES``,
+  ``SORT``, ``REVERSE``, and ``FILTER`` all now accept a non-existent variable
+  as the list since these operations on empty lists is also the empty list.
+
+* The :command:`list` operation ``REMOVE_AT`` now indicates that the given
+  indices are invalid for a non-existent variable or empty list.
+
+* The :command:`try_compile` and :command:`try_run` commands gained a new
+  ``LINK_OPTIONS`` option.
+
+Variables
+---------
+
+* A :variable:`CMAKE_BUILD_RPATH_USE_ORIGIN` variable and corresponding
+  :prop_tgt:`BUILD_RPATH_USE_ORIGIN` target property were added to
+  enable use of relative runtime paths (RPATHs). This helps achieving
+  relocatable and reproducible builds that are invariant of the build
+  directory.
+
+Properties
+----------
+
+* A :prop_gbl:`CMAKE_ROLE` global property was added to allow scripts to
+  determine whether they're running in project mode, script mode,
+  find-package mode, CTest, or CPack.
+
+* The :prop_tgt:`CUDA_RESOLVE_DEVICE_SYMBOLS` target property is now supported
+  on shared library, module library, and executable targets.  Previously it was
+  only honored on static libraries.
+
+* The :prop_tgt:`EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL` target property was created to override
+  the setting of its directory. A target will now be built as part of "all"
+  if its :prop_tgt:`EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL` property is set to ``OFF``, even if its
+  containing directory is marked as :prop_dir:`EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL`.
+
+* :prop_tgt:`INTERFACE_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE` target property gains the
+  support of :manual:`generator expressions <cmake-generator-expressions(7)>`.
+
+Modules
+-------
+
+* The family of modules to check capabilities (like
+  :module:`CheckCSourceCompiles`) gain capability to manage ``LINK_OPTIONS``.
+
+* A :module:`CheckFortranSourceRuns` module was added to provide a
+  :command:`check_fortran_source_runs` command to check if a Fortran
+  source snippet compiles and runs.
+
+* The :module:`ExternalProject` module :command:`ExternalProject_Add` command
+  gained ``LOG_DIR`` and ``LOG_MERGED_STDOUTERR`` options to control logging.
+
+* The :module:`ExternalProject` module :command:`ExternalProject_Add` command
+  gained ``LOG_PATCH`` to optionally log the patch step.
+
+* The :module:`ExternalProject` module's ``ExternalProject_Add`` command
+  learned to apply ``SOURCE_SUBDIR`` when ``BUILD_IN_SOURCE`` is also used.
+  The ``BUILD_COMMAND`` is run in the given ``SOURCE_SUBDIR`` of the
+  ``SOURCE_DIR``.
+
+* The :module:`FetchContent` module gained a new
+  :command:`FetchContent_MakeAvailable` command.  It accepts a list of
+  dependency names, which it then iterates over, populating and adding
+  each one to the main build using the canonical pattern.  This
+  significantly reduces the amount of boilerplate needed in a project.
+
+* The :module:`FindBISON` module's ``BISON_TARGET`` command now runs ``bison``
+  with :variable:`CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR` as the working directory.
+  See policy :policy:`CMP0088`.
+
+* The :module:`FindCURL` module gained support for requesting
+  protocols as package components.
+
+* The :module:`FindFontconfig` module was added to find `fontconfig`_.
+
+* The :module:`FindGDAL` module now provides imported targets.
+
+* The :module:`FindGIF` module now provides imported targets.
+
+* The :module:`FindGit` module now provides an imported target for the
+  Git executable.
+
+* The :module:`FindIce` module learned to find ``slice2confluence``
+  and ``slice2matlab``.
+
+* The :module:`FindLibinput` module was added to find `libinput`_.
+
+* The :module:`FindLibLZMA` module now provides imported targets.
+
+* The :module:`FindMatlab` module gained new options ``R2017b`` and
+  ``R2018a`` to specify the MEX API version to use; these options
+  mirror the new options to the ``mex`` command in MATLAB R2018a.
+  The option ``MX_LIBRARY`` is no longer needed.
+
+* A :module:`FindOctave` module was added to find GNU octave.
+
+* The :module:`FindPostgreSQL` module now provides imported targets.
+
+* The :module:`FindPython`, :module:`FindPython2`, and :module:`FindPython3`
+  modules gained support for ``NumPy`` component.
+
+* The :module:`FindPython2`, :module:`FindPython3`, and :module:`FindPython`
+  modules now support running in script mode by skipping the creation of
+  imported targets and helper functions.
+
+* The :module:`FindSQLite3` module was added to find the SQLite v3.x library.
+
+* The :module:`FindX11` had the following variables renamed in order to match
+  their library names rather than header names. The old variables are provided
+  for compatibility:
+
+    - ``X11_Xxf86misc_INCLUDE_PATH`` instead of ``X11_xf86misc_INCLUDE_PATH``
+    - ``X11_Xxf86misc_LIB`` instead of ``X11_xf86misc_LIB``
+    - ``X11_Xxf86misc_FOUND`` instead of ``X11_xf86misc_FOUND``
+    - ``X11_Xxf86vm_INCLUDE_PATH`` instead of ``X11_xf86vmode_INCLUDE_PATH``
+    - ``X11_Xxf86vm_LIB`` instead of ``X11_xf86vmode_LIB``
+    - ``X11_Xxf86vm_FOUND`` instead of ``X11_xf86vmode_FOUND``
+    - ``X11_xkbfile_INCLUDE_PATH`` instead of ``X11_Xkbfile_INCLUDE_PATH``
+    - ``X11_xkbfile_LIB`` instead of ``X11_Xkbfile_LIB``
+    - ``X11_xkbfile_FOUND`` instead of ``X11_Xkbfile_FOUND``
+    - ``X11_Xtst_INCLUDE_PATH`` instead of ``X11_XTest_INCLUDE_PATH``
+    - ``X11_Xtst_LIB`` instead of ``X11_XTest_LIB``
+    - ``X11_Xtst_FOUND`` instead of ``X11_XTest_FOUND``
+    - ``X11_Xss_INCLUDE_PATH`` instead of ``X11_Xscreensaver_INCLUDE_PATH``
+    - ``X11_Xss_LIB`` instead of ``X11_Xscreensaver_LIB``
+    - ``X11_Xss_FOUND`` instead of ``X11_Xscreensaver_FOUND``
+
+  The following variables are deprecated completely since they were
+  essentially duplicates:
+
+    - ``X11_Xinput_INCLUDE_PATH`` (use ``X11_Xi_INCLUDE_PATH``)
+    - ``X11_Xinput_LIB`` (use ``X11_Xi_LIB``)
+    - ``X11_Xinput_FOUND`` (use ``X11_Xi_FOUND``)
+
+* The :module:`FindX11` now provides ``X11_Xext_INCLUDE_PATH``.
+
+* The :module:`FindX11` now provides imported targets.
+
+* The :module:`UseSWIG` module learned to pass ``-module <module_name>`` to
+  the ``SWIG`` compiler if the file property ``SWIG_MODULE_NAME`` is defined.
+  See policy :policy:`CMP0086`.
+
+* The :module:`UseSWIG` module gained an option to specify
+  ``SWIG`` source file extensions.
+
+.. _`fontconfig`: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/fontconfig/
+.. _`libinput`: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/libinput/
+
+Generator Expressions
+---------------------
+
+* The ``$<Fortran_COMPILER_ID:...>`` and ``$<Fortran_COMPILER_VERSION:...>``
+  :manual:`generator expressions <cmake-generator-expressions(7)>` were added.
+
+* The ``$<IN_LIST:...>`` generator expression now correctly handles an
+  empty argument. See :policy:`CMP0085` for details.
+
+Autogen
+-------
+
+* The :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC_EXECUTABLE`, :prop_tgt:`AUTORCC_EXECUTABLE`, and
+  :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC_EXECUTABLE` target properties were added.  They all
+  take a path to an executable and force automoc/autorcc/autouic to use
+  this executable.
+
+  Setting these will also prevent the configure time testing for these
+  executables. This is mainly useful when you build these tools yourself.
+
+* The new variables :variable:`CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTOGEN_TARGET`,
+  :variable:`CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTOGEN_TARGET_NAME`,
+  :variable:`CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTORCC_TARGET` and
+  :variable:`CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTORCC_TARGET_NAME` control the generation
+  of global ``autogen`` and ``autorcc`` targets.
+
+* A new :variable:`CMAKE_AUTOGEN_ORIGIN_DEPENDS` variable and
+  :prop_tgt:`AUTOGEN_ORIGIN_DEPENDS` target property may be set to enable or
+  disable forwarding of the origin target dependencies to the corresponding
+  ``_autogen`` target.
+
+CTest
+-----
+
+* :manual:`ctest(1)` gained a ``--show-only=json-v1`` option to show the
+  list of tests in a machine-readable JSON format.
+  See the :ref:`Show as JSON Object Model` section of the manual.
+
+* The :command:`ctest_submit` command learned a new ``Done`` part that can be used
+  to inform CDash that a build is complete and that no more parts will be uploaded.
+
+* CTest learned to accept the dashboard server submission URL from a single
+  variable.  See the ``SubmitURL`` setting in :manual:`ctest(1)`,
+  the :variable:`CTEST_SUBMIT_URL` variable, and the ``SUBMIT_URL``
+  argument of the :command:`ctest_submit` command.
+
+Deprecated and Removed Features
+===============================
+
+* An explicit deprecation diagnostic was added for policies ``CMP0064``
+  and ``CMP0065`` (``CMP0063`` and below were already deprecated).
+  The :manual:`cmake-policies(7)` manual explains that the OLD behaviors
+  of all policies are deprecated and that projects should port to the
+  NEW behaviors.
+
+* The :generator:`Xcode` generator deprecated support for Xcode
+  versions prior to Xcode 5.  Support for those will be dropped in a
+  future version of CMake.
+
+* The :module:`FindQt` module is no longer used by the :command:`find_package`
+  command as a find module.  This allows the Qt Project upstream to optionally
+  provide its own ``QtConfig.cmake`` package configuration file and have
+  applications use it via ``find_package(Qt)`` rather than
+  ``find_package(Qt CONFIG)``.  See policy :policy:`CMP0084`.
+
+* Support for running CMake on Windows XP and Windows Vista has been dropped.
+  The precompiled Windows binaries provided on ``cmake.org`` now require
+  Windows 7 or higher.
+
+* CTest no longer supports submissions via ``ftp``, ``scp``, ``cp``, and
+  ``xmlrpc``.  CDash is the only maintained testing dashboard for CTest,
+  and it only supports submissions over ``http`` and ``https``.
+
+Other Changes
+=============
+
+* Object library linking has been fixed to propagate transitive link
+  dependencies of object libraries to consuming targets.
+
+* Install rules under :command:`add_subdirectory` now interleave with those in
+  the calling directory. See policy :policy:`CMP0082` for details.
+
+* CMake now imposes a maximum recursion limit to prevent a stack overflow on
+  scripts that recurse infinitely. The limit can be adjusted at runtime with
+  :variable:`CMAKE_MAXIMUM_RECURSION_DEPTH`.
+
+* When using cppcheck via the :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_CPPCHECK` variable
+  or :prop_tgt:`<LANG>_CPPCHECK` property, the build will now fail if
+  ``cppcheck`` returns non-zero as configured by its command-line options.
+
+* Required link options to manage Position Independent Executable are now
+  added when :prop_tgt:`POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE` is set.  The project is
+  responsible for using the :module:`CheckPIESupported` module to check for
+  ``PIE`` support to ensure that the :prop_tgt:`POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE`
+  target property will be honored at link time for executables.  This behavior
+  is controlled by policy :policy:`CMP0083`.
+
+* :ref:`Visual Studio Generators` for VS 2010 and above learned
+  to support the ``VS_DEBUGGER_*`` properties on targets created
+  via :command:`add_custom_target`.
+
+* The :module:`CPack` module no longer defaults to the ``paxr`` value in the
+  :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_ARCHIVE_TYPE` variable, because ``dpkg`` has
+  never supported the PAX tar format. The ``paxr`` value will be mapped
+  to ``gnutar`` and a deprecation message emitted.

-vs2019
-------
-
-* The :generator:`Visual Studio 16 2019` generator was added.  This is
-  experimental and based on "Visual Studio 2019 Preview 2" because this
-  version of VS has not been released.
-
-  The VS 2019 generator differs from generators for earlier versions
-  in that it does not provide variants that specify the target platform
-  in the generator name.  Instead :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM`
-  must be used, e.g. through the ``-A`` command-line option.  Furthermore,
-  the default target platform (architecture) is now based on the *host*
-  platform.  The VS host toolset selection is now based on the host
-  architecture as well.
