* Help: Minor grammar fix for the Using Dependencies manualCraig Scott2022-07-231-1/+1

* Help: Mark features new to 3.24 in Using Dependencies GuideFeRD (Frank Dana)2022-06-271-0/+4
| | | | | | The sections on FetchContent's FIND_PACKAGE_ARGS and on Dependency Providers only apply to CMake 3.24+, so add versionadded markers at the start of both sections.
* Help: Overhaul and expand the Using Dependencies GuideCraig Scott2022-06-091-172/+387
| | | | | | | | The guide previously only focused on the find_package() command, with a bias towards libraries. FetchContent was not mentioned at all. Reorganise and update the existing content. Add new sections to cover providing dependencies with FetchContent and dependency providers. Improve discoverability of the guide by mentioning it at the beginning of the find_package(), FetchContent and dependency provider docs.
* Tutorial: Simplify logic checking for cmath functionsBrad King2022-06-013-19/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit 07223c5c27 (Tutorial: Update Step 5 to work on Windows, 2020-02-18, v3.18.0-rc1~655^2) the logic does not work on non-Windows platforms when cmake is re-run on an existing build tree. It is also more complicated than we'd like for a tutorial example. Avoid the need to consider the `m` library case by performing the check as C++. Since `check_cxx_symbol_exists` cannot handle overloaded functions like `exp` and `log`, check with `check_cxx_source_compiles` instead. This also presents a more general-purpose example in the tutorial. Fixes: #23524
* Tutorial: Provide a source archive when published on cmake.orgBrad King2022-04-282-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | Provide readers following the tutorial on `cmake.org` a direct link to download the tutorial's source examples. Previously readers had to fetch the CMake source tree separately and look for the tutorial source examples inside it. Fixes: #22475
* Help/guide: Fix wrong header file referenceMartin Duffy2022-04-211-2/+3
| | | | | Step 2 references mysqrt.h instead of MathFunctions.h. MathFunctions/mysqrt.h doesn't exist until Step 9.
* Tutorial: Fix casing of reference to License.txtØystein Sørensen2022-03-211-1/+1
| | | | | Correct a tiny typo in the Step 7 tutorial. Change so `License.txt` correctly starts with a capital `L`.
* Help: use package-specific var for supported component listConnor Imes2022-02-141-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | Always using `_supported_components` causes conflicts when transitive dependencies also set this variable, e.g., because the developers followed these code samples. An even more general approach could be to set `_${CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_NAME}_supported_components` instead, but such a change should then be applied to other variables for consistency. Fixes: #23112

* LCC: Add dedicated support for MCST LCC compilermakise-homura2021-10-153-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Divert LCC compiler as a new one, instead of treating it as GNU. Since old times, Elbrus C/C++/Fortran Compiler (LCC) by MCST has been passing checks for GNU compilers, so it has been identified as GNU. Now, with intent of seriously upstreaming its support, it has been added as a separate LCC compiler, and its version displays not a supported GCC version, but LCC version itself (e.g. LCC 1.25.19 instead of GNU 7.3.0). This commit adds its support for detection, and also converts basically every check like 'is this compiler GNU?' to 'is this compiler GNU or LCC?'. The only places where this check is untouched, is where it regards other platforms where LCC is unavailable (primarily non-Linux), and where it REALLY differs from GNU compiler. Note: this transition may break software that are already ported to Elbrus, but hardly relies that LCC will be detected as GNU; still such software is not known.

Do this by ensuring that the paragraph which describes the work done mentions the placement and use of the previous command. This is done to avoid duplication of the add_subdirectory call.
