Therefore a pure CMake lexer is inadequate. Here it is replaced by a CMake syntax definition parser. * Fixed syntax definition snippets in FindPkgConfig.cmake to make best use of syntax highlighting. This source file is the hardest to support because it contains comparison operators <= = >=, which need special attention to avoid confusion with the placeholder indicators <...>. * Fixed syntax in execute_process.rst (there were unbalanced brackets). * Disabled syntax highlighting for long string examples in cmake-language.7.rst. * No highlighting of removed syntax in CMP0049 * To inspect the outcome of this patch, see e.g. the pages * manual/cmake-buildsystem.7.html * module/ExternalProject.html * module/FindPkgConfig.html which are particularly rich in complex code snippets.

| |/ / / | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If a project() call does not have DESCRIPTION or HOMEPAGE_URL options, it must still set the relevant variables or else those variables will inherit values from an earlier project() call. That is inconsistent with how VERSION is handled and is likely to be unexpected. The docs were also ambiguous about what should happen in such cases.
