+CMake 3.4 Release Notes
+***********************
+
+.. only:: html
+
+ .. contents::
+
+Changes made since CMake 3.4 include the following.
+
+* CMake learned rudimentary support for the Apple Swift language. When using
+ the :generator:`Xcode` generator with Xcode 6.1 or higher, one may enable
+ the ``Swift`` language with the :command:`enable_language` command or the
+ :command:`project` command (this is an error with other generators or when
+ Xcode is too old). Then one may list ``.swift`` source files in targets
+ for compilation.
+
+* New :variable:`CMAKE_LINK_SEARCH_START_STATIC` and
+ :variable:`CMAKE_LINK_SEARCH_END_STATIC` variables were
+ introduced to initialize the
+ :prop_tgt:`LINK_SEARCH_START_STATIC` and
+ :prop_tgt:`LINK_SEARCH_END_STATIC` target properties,
+ respectively.
+
+* On Windows with MS-compatible tools, CMake learned to optionally
+ generate a module definition (``.def``) file for ``SHARED`` libraries.
+ See the :prop_tgt:`WINDOWS_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS` target property.
+
+* The :ref:`Makefile Generators` and the :generator:`Ninja` generator
+ learned to add compiler launcher tools like distcc and ccache along with the
+ compiler for ``C`` and ``CXX`` languages. See the
+ :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER_LAUNCHER` variable and
+ :prop_tgt:`<LANG>_COMPILER_LAUNCHER` target property for details.
+
+* The `Concurrent Fortran 77 <https://ccur.com>`__ compiler is now supported.
+ Its :variable:`compiler id <CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER_ID>` is ``CCur``.
+
+* The :module:`CPackDeb` module now correctly excludes symlinks during package checksum calculation.
+
+* The :module:`CPackDeb` module learned to set package dependencies
+ per component. See :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_PREDEPENDS`,
+ :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_ENHANCES`,
+ :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_BREAKS`,
+ :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_CONFLICTS`,
+ :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_PROVIDES`,
+ :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_REPLACES`,
+ :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_RECOMMENDS` and
+ :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_SUGGESTS`.
+
+* :module:`CPackDeb` no longer uses fakeroot and system tar program for packaging.
+
+* The :module:`CPack` module learned to package empty directories.
+
+* The :module:`CPack` module no longer mangles settings with CMake-special
+ characters when they're used as defaults for other settings. The macro
+ ``cpack_set_if_not_set``, which was responsible for this, is now deprecated.
+
+* The :module:`CPack` module gained a new setting, ``CPACK_VERBATIM_VARIABLES``,
+ which can be used to ensure the cpack program receives the settings' values
+ exactly as they were set, even if they contain CMake-special characters.
+ For compatibility, it's off by default.
+
+* :manual:`ctest(1)` learned options
+ ``--test-output-size-passed`` and ``--test-output-size-failed``
+ to customize the limit on test output size submitted when
+ running as a :ref:`Dashboard Client`.
+
+* CTest learned to optionally measure the CPU load during parallel
+ testing and avoid starting tests that may cause the load to exceed
+ a given threshold. See the :manual:`ctest(1)` command ``--test-load``
+ option, the ``TestLoad`` setting of the :ref:`CTest Test Step`,
+ the :variable:`CTEST_TEST_LOAD` variable, and the ``TEST_LOAD``
+ option of the :command:`ctest_test` command.
+
+* The :module:`CMakeExpandImportedTargets` module is now documented
+ as deprecated. See module documentation for an explanation.
+
+* The :module:`ExternalProject` module :command:`ExternalProject_Add`
+ function ``GIT_SUBMODULES`` option now also limits the set of
+ submodules that are initialized in addition to the prior behavior
+ of limiting the set of submodules that are updated.
+
+* Use "git stash save --all" only if supported. The --all option for git-stash
+ wasn't introduced until git version 1.7.6.
+
+* The :module:`ExternalProject` module learned new ``USES_TERMINAL``
+ arguments for giving steps exclusive terminal access. Especially
+ useful with the :generator:`Ninja` generator to monitor CMake
+ superbuild progress and prevent CPU oversubscription.
+
+* The :module:`FindBISON` module ``BISON_TARGET`` macro learned a
+ new ``DEFINES_FILE`` option to specify a custom output header
+ to be generated.
+
+* The :module:`FindHDF5` module learend a new ``HDF5_PREFER_PARALLEL``
+ option allowing users to specify that a parallel HDF5 tool is
+ preferred if both are available.
+
+* The :module:`FindIce` module now provides imported targets.
+
+* The :module:`FindOpenSSL` module now provides imported targets.
+
+* The :module:`FindOpenSSL` module learned a new ``OPENSSL_USE_STATIC_LIBS``
+ option to search only for static libraries.
+
+* The :command:`find_program` command learned a ``NAMES_PER_DIR``
+ option to consdier all given ``NAMES`` in each directory before
+ moving on to the next directory.
+
+* The :module:`FindProtobuf` module gained a new
+ :command:`protobuf_generate_python` function to generate python
+ sources from ``.proto`` files.
+
+* The :module:`FindTIFF` module learned to search separately for
+ debug and release variants.
+
+* The :module:`FindwxWidgets` module learned to support version requests.
+
+* The :module:`FindXercesC` module learned to search separately for
+ debug and release variants.
+
+* The :module:`FindZLIB` module learned to search separately for
+ debug and release variants.
+
+* A new ``$<SHELL_PATH:...>``
+ :manual:`generator expression <cmake-generator-expressions(7)>`
+ has been added.
+
+* The :command:`get_filename_component` command learned a new ``BASE_DIR``
+ subcommand. This is used to specify a base directory when calculating an
+ absolute path from a relative path.
+
+* The :module:`GNUInstallDirs` module learned special default values
+ for certain installation prefixes according to the `GNU Coding
+ Standards`_ and the `Filesystem Hierarchy Standard`_.
+
+.. _`GNU Coding Standards`: https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Directory-Variables.html
+.. _`Filesystem Hierarchy Standard`: https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_3.0/fhs/index.html
+
+* Add a new TEST operator to if() that evaluates to true
+ if a given test name has been defined.
+
+* The :command:`install(DIRECTORY)` command ``DESTINATION`` option learned to
+ support :manual:`generator expressions <cmake-generator-expressions(7)>`.
+
+* The :command:`install(FILES)` command ``DESTINATION`` option learned to
+ support :manual:`generator expressions <cmake-generator-expressions(7)>`.
+
+* The :module:`FindJava` module learned to optionally find
+ the ``idlj`` and ``jarsigner`` tools.
+
+* The :module:`UseJava` module ``add_jar`` function learned
+ to support response files (e.g. ``@srcs.txt``) for source
+ specification.
+
+* The :module:`UseJava` module ``install_jar`` function learned
+ new ``DESTINATION`` and ``COMPONENT`` options to specify
+ the corresponding :command:`install` command options.
+
+* The :module:`UseJava` module gained a new ``create_javah``
+ function to create C headers from Java classes.
+
+* A :prop_gbl:`TARGET_MESSAGES` global property was added to tell the
+ :ref:`Makefile Generators` whether to generate commands to print output
+ after each target is completed.
+
+* The :manual:`Compile Features <cmake-compile-features(7)>` functionality
+ is now aware of features supported by GNU C compilers on Windows.
+
+* The ``SONAME`` field is no longer set for ``MODULE`` libraries
+ created with the :command:`add_library` command. ``MODULE``
+ libraries are meant for explicit dynamic loading at runtime.
+ They cannot be linked so ``SONAME`` is not useful.
+
+* CMake learned to honor ``*.manifest`` source files with MSVC tools.
+ Manifest files named as sources of ``.exe`` and ``.dll`` targets
+ will be merged with linker-generated manifests and embedded in the
+ binary.
+
+* The :prop_tgt:`ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY`,
+ :prop_tgt:`LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY`, and
+ :prop_tgt:`RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY` target properties learned to
+ support :manual:`generator expressions <cmake-generator-expressions(7)>`.
+
+* The :prop_tgt:`OUTPUT_NAME` target property and its variants learned to
+ support :manual:`generator expressions <cmake-generator-expressions(7)>`.
+
+* The :module:`FindPkgConfig` learned a new :command:`pkg_get_variable`
+ command which may be used to query for arbitrary variables from a package
+ (such as for related tools or data and plugin install paths).
+
+* The :variable:`CMAKE_USE_RELATIVE_PATHS` variable no longer has any
+ effect. Previously it was partially implemented and unreliable.
+
+* CMake no longer links executables with flags to export symbols
+ unless the :prop_tgt:`ENABLE_EXPORTS` target property is set.
+ See policy :policy:`CMP0065`.
+
+* The :command:`string` command learned a new ``APPEND`` subcommand.
+
+* The :prop_tgt:`SOURCE_DIR` and :prop_tgt:`BINARY_DIR` target properties
+ were introduced to allow project code to query where a target is defined.
+
+* The :module:`CheckFunctionExists`, :module:`CheckLibraryExists`,
+ :module:`CheckSymbolExists`, and :module:`FindThreads` modules learned to
+ work in environments where only CXX is enabled.
+
+* Add ``--trace-expand`` argument to CMake. Acts like ``--trace``, but expands
+ variable references in the output.
+
+* :ref:`Visual Studio Generators` learned to support additonal
+ target properties to customize projects for NVIDIA Nsight
+ Tegra Visual Studio Edition:
+
+ * :prop_tgt:`ANDROID_ANT_ADDITIONAL_OPTIONS`
+ * :prop_tgt:`ANDROID_ARCH`
+ * :prop_tgt:`ANDROID_ASSETS_DIRECTORIES`
+ * :prop_tgt:`ANDROID_JAR_DEPENDENCIES`
+ * :prop_tgt:`ANDROID_JAR_DIRECTORIES`
+ * :prop_tgt:`ANDROID_JAVA_SOURCE_DIR`
+ * :prop_tgt:`ANDROID_NATIVE_LIB_DEPENDENCIES`
+ * :prop_tgt:`ANDROID_NATIVE_LIB_DIRECTORIES`
+ * :prop_tgt:`ANDROID_PROCESS_MAX`
+ * :prop_tgt:`ANDROID_PROGUARD`
+ * :prop_tgt:`ANDROID_PROGUARD_CONFIG_PATH`
+ * :prop_tgt:`ANDROID_SECURE_PROPS_PATH`
+ * :prop_tgt:`ANDROID_SKIP_ANT_STEP`
+ * :prop_tgt:`ANDROID_STL_TYPE`
+
+* The :generator:`Visual Studio 14 2015` generator learned to select
+ a Windows 10 SDK based on the value of the :variable:`CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION`
+ variable and the SDKs available on the host.
