+CMake 3.9 Release Notes
+***********************
+
+.. only:: html
+
+  .. contents::
+
+Changes made since CMake 3.8 include the following.
+
+* The :command:`add_custom_command` command learned to evaluate the
+  ``TARGET_OBJECTS``
+  :manual:`generator expression <cmake-generator-expressions(7)>`.
+
+* The :command:`add_library` command ``IMPORTED`` option learned to support
+  :ref:`Object Libraries`.
+
+* The new target property :prop_tgt:`AUTOGEN_BUILD_DIR` was introduced which
+  allows to set a custom output directory for
+  :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC`, :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC` and :prop_tgt:`AUTORCC`.
+
+* Variable :variable:`CMAKE_AUTOMOC_DEPEND_FILTERS` was introduced to
+  allow :variable:`CMAKE_AUTOMOC` to extract additional dependency file names
+  for ``moc`` from the contents of source files.
+
+* The new target property :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC_DEPEND_FILTERS` was introduced to
+  allow :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` to extract additional dependency file names
+  for ``moc`` from the contents of source files.
+
+* When using :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC`, CMake scans for the presence of the
+  ``Q_PLUGIN_METADATA`` macro and reruns moc when the file from the
+  macro's ``FILE`` argument changes.
+
+* When :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` detects an include statement of the form
+  ``#include "moc_<basename>.cpp"`` the respective header file is searched
+  for in the :prop_tgt:`INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES` of the target as well.
+
+* Global properties :prop_gbl:`AUTOGEN_SOURCE_GROUP`,
+  :prop_gbl:`AUTOMOC_SOURCE_GROUP` and
+  :prop_gbl:`AUTORCC_SOURCE_GROUP` were
+  introduced to allow files generated by :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` or
+  :prop_tgt:`AUTORCC` to be placed in a :command:`source_group`.
+
+* Variable :variable:`CMAKE_AUTOUIC_SEARCH_PATHS` was introduced to
+  allow :variable:`CMAKE_AUTOUIC` to search for ``foo.ui`` in more
+  places than the vicinity of the ``ui_foo.h`` including file.
+
+* The new target property :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC_SEARCH_PATHS` was introduced to
+  allow :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC` to search for ``foo.ui`` in more
+  places than the vicinity of the ``ui_foo.h`` including file.
+
+* Two new informational generator expressions to retrieve Apple Bundle
+  directories have been added. The first one ``$<TARGET_BUNDLE_DIR:tgt>``
+  outputs the full path to the Bundle directory, the other one
+  ``$<TARGET_BUNDLE_CONTENT_DIR:tgt>`` outputs the full path to the
+  ``Contents`` directory of macOS Bundles and App Bundles. For all other
+  bundle types and SDKs it is identical with ``$<TARGET_BUNDLE_DIR:tgt>``.
+
+  Those new expressions are helpful to query Bundle locations independent of
+  the different Bundle types and layouts on macOS and iOS.
+
+* A :module:`CheckIPOSupported` module was added to help projects
+  check whether interprocedural optimization (IPO) is supported by
+  the current toolchain and CMake version.
+
+* A :variable:`CMAKE_INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION` variable was added to
+  initialize the :prop_tgt:`INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION` property on all
+  targets.
+
+* The :generator:`Xcode` generator got the ability to create schema files.
+  This is still an experimental feature and can be activated by setting the
+  :variable:`CMAKE_XCODE_GENERATE_SCHEME` variable to a ``TRUE`` value.
+
+* A :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER_AR` variable was added to hold
+  the path to the GCC/Clang wrapper of ``ar``.
+
+* A :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER_RANLIB` variable was added to hold
+  the path to the GCC/Clang wrapper of ``ranlib``.
+
+* The :module:`CPackArchive` module learned to modify filename per component.
+  See :variable:`CPACK_ARCHIVE_FILE_NAME` variable and its per component
+  version.
+
+* The :module:`CPackIFW` module :command:`cpack_ifw_configure_component` and
+  :command:`cpack_ifw_configure_component_group` commands gained a
+  internationalization support for ``DISPLAY_NAME`` and ``DESCRIPTION`` options
+  to more specific configuration.
+
+* The :module:`CPackIFW` module learned the new hint :variable:`CPACK_IFW_ROOT`
+  variable for finding the QtIFW tool suite installed in a non-standard place.
+* The :module:`CPackIFW` module tries to find and use QtIFW tools of the `3.0`
+  and `3.1` versions.
+
+* The :module:`CPackRPM` module learned to modify debuginfo package name.
+  See :variable:`CPACK_RPM_DEBUGINFO_FILE_NAME` variable.
+
+* A :prop_test:`DISABLED` test property was added to mark tests that
+  are configured but explicitly disabled so they do not run.
+
+* The :command:`ctest_submit` command gained a ``HTTPHEADER`` option
+  to specify custom headers to send during submission.
+
+* When running tests, CTest learned to treat skipped tests (using the
+  :prop_test:`SKIP_RETURN_CODE` property) the same as tests with the
+  :prop_test:`DISABLED` property. Due to this change, CTest will not indicate
+  failure when all tests are either skipped or pass.
+
+* ``CUDA`` is now supported by the :ref:`Visual Studio Generators`
+  for VS 2010 and above.
+
+* An explicit deprecation diagnostic was added for policies ``CMP0036``
+  and below.  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 :module:`FindDoxygen` module learned to control Doxygen behavior using
+  CMake variables and generate documentation via the newly added
+  :command:`doxygen_add_docs` function. The Doxygen input file (``Doxyfile``)
+  is automatically generated and doxygen is run as part of a custom target.
+  A number of doxygen-related variables have been deprecated. Additional
+  components can be specified to find optional tools: ``dot``, ``mscgen``
+  and ``dia``.
+
+* The :prop_tgt:`CUDA_PTX_COMPILATION` target property was added to
+  :ref:`Object Libraries` to support compiling to ``.ptx`` files
+  instead of host object files.
+
+* The :manual:`ctest(1)` executable gained new options which allow the
+  developer to disable automatically adding tests to the test set to satisfy
+  fixture dependencies. ``-FS`` prevents adding setup tests for fixtures
+  matching the provided regular expression, ``-FC`` prevents adding cleanup
+  tests for matching fixtures and ``-FA`` prevents adding any test for matching
+  fixtures.
+
+* A new :module:`GoogleTest` module was added to provide the
+  :command:`gtest_add_tests` function independently of the :module:`FindGTest`
+  module. The function was also updated to support keyword arguments, with
+  functionality expanded to allow a test name prefix and suffix to be
+  specified, the dependency on the source files to be optional and the list of
+  discovered test cases to be returned to the caller.
+
+* The :command:`feature_summary` command in the :module:`FeatureSummary` module
+  accepts the new ``DEFAULT_DESCRIPTION`` option that will print the default
+  title for the selected package type.
+
+* The global property :variable:`FeatureSummary_<TYPE>_DESCRIPTION` can be
+  defined for each ``<TYPE>`` to replace the type name with the specified string
+  whenever the package type is used in an output string by the
+  :module:`FeatureSummary` module.
+
+* The :command:`file(GENERATE)` subcommand learned to evaluate the
+  ``TARGET_OBJECTS``
+  :manual:`generator expression <cmake-generator-expressions(7)>`.
+
+* A :variable:`CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_CUSTOM_LIB_SUFFIX` variable was added to
+  tell the :command:`find_library` command to search in a ``lib<suffix>``
+  directory before each ``lib`` directory that would normally be searched.
+
+* The :module:`FindMPI` module now provides imported targets.
+
+* The :module:`FindProtobuf` module :command:`protobuf_generate_cpp`
+  command gained an ``EXPORT_MACRO`` option to specify the name of
+  a DLL export markup macro.
+
+* The :module:`FindProtobuf` module now supports usage of static libraries
+  for Unix via a new ``Protobuf_USE_STATIC_LIBS`` input variable.
+
+* The :module:`FindProtobuf` module now provides imported targets
+  when the libraries are found.
+
+* Interprocedural optimization (IPO) is now supported for GNU
+  compilers using link time optimization (LTO) flags.  See the
+  :prop_tgt:`INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION` target property and
+  :module:`CheckIPOSupported` module.
+
+* The :command:`include_external_msproject` command learned to use
+  the :prop_tgt:`MAP_IMPORTED_CONFIG_<CONFIG>` target property
+  to map current configurations to the external configurations.
+
+* A :prop_tgt:`BUILD_WITH_INSTALL_NAME_DIR` target property and corresponding
+  :variable:`CMAKE_BUILD_WITH_INSTALL_NAME_DIR` variable were added to
+  control whether to use the :prop_tgt:`INSTALL_NAME_DIR` target property
+  value for binaries in the build tree.  This is for macOS ``install_name``
+  as :prop_tgt:`BUILD_WITH_INSTALL_RPATH` is for ``RPATH``.
+
+* On macOS, ``RPATH`` settings such as :prop_tgt:`BUILD_WITH_INSTALL_RPATH`
+  no longer affect the ``install_name`` field.  See policy :policy:`CMP0068`.
+
+* The :command:`install(TARGETS)` command learned a new ``OBJECTS`` option to
+  specify where to install :ref:`Object Libraries`.
+
+* The :command:`install(EXPORT)` command learned how to export
+  :ref:`Object Libraries`.
+
+* The :prop_tgt:`INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION` target property is now enforced
+  when enabled.  CMake will add IPO flags unconditionally or produce an error
+  if it does not know the flags for the current compiler.  The project is now
+  responsible to use the :module:`CheckIPOSupported` module to check for IPO
+  support before enabling the target property.  See policy :policy:`CMP0069`.
+
+* On macOS the default application bundle ``Info.plist`` file now enables
+  Hi-DPI support.
+
+* The :prop_tgt:`WINDOWS_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS` target property may now
+  be used in combination with explicit ``.def`` files in order to
+  export all symbols from the object files within a target plus
+  an explicit list of symbols that the linker finds in dependencies
+  (e.g. ``msvcrt.lib``).
+
+* The :generator:`Ninja` generator has loosened dependencies on object
+  compilation to depend on the custom targets and commands of dependent
+  libraries instead of the libraries themselves. This helps projects with deep
+  dependency graphs to be blocked only on their link steps at the deeper
+  levels rather than also blocking object compilation on dependent link steps.
+
+* All ``find_`` commands now have a `PACKAGE_ROOT` search path group that is
+  first in the search heuristics.  If the ``find_`` command is called from
+  inside a find module, then the CMake and environment variables
+  ``<PackageName>_ROOT`` are used as prefixes and are the first set of paths
+  that are searched.
+
+* The :module:`CPackComponent` module :command:`cpack_add_component` command
+  gained a new ``PLIST <filename>`` option to specify the ``pkgbuild``
+  ``--component-plist`` argument when using the
+  :module:`productbuild <CPackProductBuild>` generator.
+
+* The :module:`CPackProductBuild` module gained a new
+  :variable:`CPACK_PRODUCTBUILD_RESOURCES_DIR` variable to
+  specify resources to be copied into the ``Resources``
+  directory.
+
+* The :command:`project` command learned an optional ``DESCRIPTION`` parameter.
+  See :command:`project` command and :variable:`PROJECT_DESCRIPTION` variable.
+
+* A :prop_gbl:`GENERATOR_IS_MULTI_CONFIG` global property was
+  added to determine whether the current generator is a multi-configuration
+  generator (such as :ref:`Visual Studio Generators` or :generator:`Xcode`).
+
+* The :generator:`Visual Studio 7 .NET 2003` generator has been removed.
+
+* The :generator:`Xcode` generator dropped support for Xcode versions
+  older than 3.
+
+* A ``NATIVE_COMMAND`` mode was added to :command:`separate_arguments`
+  performing argument separation depening on the host operating system.
+
+* The :variable:`CMAKE_SYSROOT_COMPILE` and :variable:`CMAKE_SYSROOT_LINK`
+  variables were added to use separate sysroots for compiling and linking.
+
+* The version of curl bundled with CMake no longer accepts URLs of the form
+  ``file://c:/...`` on Windows due to a change in upstream curl 7.52.  Use
+  the form ``file:///c:/...`` instead to work on all versions.
+
+* The :generator:`Visual Studio 8 2005` generator is now deprecated
+  and will be removed in a future version of CMake.
+
+* :ref:`Visual Studio Generators` for VS 2010 and above learned to support
+  the ``ASM_NASM`` language when ``nasm`` is installed.
+
+* The patching system within the :module:`CPackWIX` module now allows the
+  ability to set additional attributes.  This can be done by specifying
+  addional attributes with the ``CPackWiXFragment`` XML tag after the
+  ``Id`` attribute.  See the :variable:`CPACK_WIX_PATCH_FILE` variable.
+
+* The CPack WIX generator implemented a new
+  :variable:`CPACK_WIX_ROOT_FOLDER_ID` variable which allows
+  using a custom root folder ID instead of the default
+  ``ProgramFilesFolder`` / ``ProgramFiles64Folder``.
+
+* The :command:`find_library` command learned to search ``libx32`` paths
+  when the build targets the ``x32`` ABI.  See the
+  :prop_gbl:`FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIBX32_PATHS` global property.
