* Help: Add `.. versionadded` directives to commands documentationNikita Nemkin2020-11-091-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change ony concerns directives that appear in the document body. The guidelines for inserting version directives: * Baseline version is CMake 3.0, i.e. directives start at 3.1. * Always use `.. versionadded::` directive, avoid ad-hoc version references. Exception: policy pages. * For new command signatures, put `versionadded` on a separate line after the signature. * For a group of new signatures in a new document section, a single version note at the beginning of the section is sufficient. * For new options, put `versionadded` on a separate line before option description. * If all the option descriptions in the list are short one-liners, it's fine to put `versionadded` on the same line as the description. * If multiple option descriptions in close proximity would have the same ..versionadded directive, consider adding a single directive after the list, mentioning all added options. * For compact value lists and sub-option lists, put a single `versionadded` directive after the list mentioning all additions. * When a change is described in a single paragraph, put `versionadded` into that paragraph. * When only part of the paragraph has changed, separate the changed part if it doesn't break the flow. Otherwise, write a follow-up clarification paragraph and apply version directive to that. * When multiple version directives are close by, order earlier additions before later additions. * Indent related lists and code blocks to include them in the scope of `versionadded` directive.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | `CMAKE_CURRENT_FUNCTION` Can be used for diagnostic or debugging messages like the `__PRETTY_FUNCTION__` macro of GCC. `CMAKE_CURRENT_FUNCTION_LIST_DIR` Eliminates the necessity of the additional "global" variables inside a module used to access additional "resource" files from functions defined in the module. ...

* Help: Revise docs on Scripting CommandsJoachim Wuttke (l)2018-10-231-14/+22
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Revise docs for all "Scripting Commands", except four find_XXX that use a macro suite of their own. * Take full advantage of the improved syntax highlighting. * Make consequential use of <..> placeholders. * Clarify things here and there in the text. Specific improvements to some command docs: * "math": Correct description of novel hexadecimal capability. * "if", "foreach", "while": Provide link to "endif" etc * "foreach", "while": Mention "break" and "continue". * "foreach": Simplify explanation of ``RANGE`` and ``IN`` signatures; advise against negative arguments or reverse ranges (compare issue #18461) * "endif", "endfunction" etc: Explain that the argument is optional and maintained for compatibility only
