See policy :policy:`CMP0062` for details. + +* A :prop_tgt:`CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR` target property and supporting + :variable:`CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR` variable were introduced + to allow target platform binaries to run on the host during cross + compiling. + +* The :command:`execute_process` command learned to support specifying + the same file for ``OUTPUT_FILE`` and ``ERROR_FILE``. + +* It is now possible to export targets which populate the + :prop_tgt:`INTERFACE_SOURCES` target property using the + :command:`install(EXPORT)` and :command:`export()` commands. + +* The :prop_tgt:`_VISIBILITY_PRESET` and + :prop_tgt:`VISIBILITY_INLINES_HIDDEN` target properties now + affect compilation in sources of all target types. See + policy :policy:`CMP0063`. + +* The :module:`ExternalData` module learned a new + :variable:`ExternalData_NO_SYMLINKS` option to disable use of + symbolic links to populate the real data files and use copies + instead. + +* The :module:`ExternalData` module learned a new ``RECURSE:`` + option in ``DATA{}`` references specifying directories. + This allows an entire directory tree of associated files + to be matched. + +* The :module:`ExternalData` module learned a new URL template + placeholder ``%(algo:)`` to allow custom mapping from + algorithm name to URL component through configuration of new + :variable:`ExternalData_URL_ALGO__` variables. + This allows more flexibility in remote URLs. + +* The :module:`ExternalProject` module learned to replace tokens + like ```` in the ``BYPRODUCTS`` of each step. + +* The :module:`ExternalProject` module APIs learned to support + :manual:`generator expressions ` + when using ``LOG_*`` options and in CMake initial cache options. + +* The :command:`file(GLOB)` and :command:`file(GLOB_RECURSE)` commands + learned a new ``LIST_DIRECTORIES `` option to specify whether + the glob result should include directories. + +* The :module:`FindBoost` module now tracks the directories containing + libraries separately for RELEASE and DEBUG configurations. + +* The :command:`find_library`, :command:`find_path`, and :command:`find_file` + commands now search in installation prefixes derived from the ``PATH`` + environment variable. + +* The :module:`FindCUDA` module now defaults to using the static + CUDA runtime library if it is available. A new + ``CUDA_USE_STATIC_CUDA_RUNTIME`` option is offered to control + this behavior. + +* The :module:`FindMatlab` module was completely rewritten. It learned + about versions and components and to find Matlab in a more precise and + multiplatform way. The module now offers APIs to create mex extensions, + documentation, and unit tests. + +* The :command:`find_package` command no longer considers project + build trees recently configured in a :manual:`cmake-gui(1)`. + This was previously done only on Windows and is now never done. + The ``NO_CMAKE_BUILDS_PATH`` option is now ignored if given + and effectively always on. + Projects may populate the :ref:`User Package Registry` to aid + users building multiple dependent projects one after another. + +* The :module:`FindPackageHandleStandardArgs` module + ``FIND_PACKAGE_HANDLE_STANDARD_ARGS`` function now + always populates the both ``_FOUND`` + and ``_FOUND`` variables (the latter + for backwards compatibility). The ``FOUND_VAR`` + option is now ignored except to enforce its allowed + values. + +* The :module:`CTestCoverageCollectGCOV` module learned to support + the same ``CTEST_CUSTOM_COVERAGE_EXCLUDE`` option as the + :command:`ctest_coverage` command. + +* Add a new IN_LIST operator to if() that evaluates true + if a given element is contained in a named list. + +* The :command:`install(TARGETS)` command learned to support + generator expressions in the ``DESTINATION`` value. + +* The :module:`InstallRequiredSystemLibraries` module learned a new + ``CMAKE_INSTALL_SYSTEM_RUNTIME_COMPONENT`` option to specify the + installation component. + +* Linking to library files by a full path in an implicit linker search + directory (e.g. ``/usr/lib/libfoo.a``) no longer asks the linker to + search for the library (e.g. ``-lfoo``). See policy :policy:`CMP0060`. + +* The Makefile generators now add ``.DELETE_ON_ERROR`` to the + makefiles that contain the actual build rules for files on disk. + This tells GNU make to remove rule outputs when their recipe + modifies an output but fails. + +* With Makefile generators, the build-time progress output has been improved. + It no longer mixes progress and build rule messages during parallel builds. + The link rule messages now have progress and are displayed as bold green + instead of bold red (since red is often associated with an error message). + +* The :manual:`Compile Features ` functionality + is now aware of features supported by GNU compilers on Windows, versions + 4.4 through 5.0. + +* When building with GNU tools on Windows (MinGW tools), the + :command:`find_library` command will no longer consider + ``.dll`` files to be linkable libraries. All dynamic link + libraries are expected to provide separate ``.dll.a`` or + ``.lib`` import libraries. + +* The :generator:`Ninja` generator now requires that calls to the + :command:`add_custom_command` and :command:`add_custom_target` + commands use the ``BYPRODUCTS`` option to explicitly specify any + files generated by the custom commands that are not listed as + outputs (perhaps because their timestamps are allowed to be older + than the inputs). See policy :policy:`CMP0058`. + +* The :command:`add_definitions()` command no longer causes a + :prop_dir:`DEFINITIONS` directory property to be populated. See policy + :policy:`CMP0059`. + +* The :module:`CPackRPM` module learned a new + :variable:`CPACK_RPM__PACKAGE_ARCHITECTURE` variable + to specify a component-specific package architecture. + +* The :ref:`Makefile Generators` and the :generator:`Ninja` generator + learned to optionally run ``include-what-you-use`` along with the + compiler for ``C`` and ``CXX`` languages. See the + :variable:`CMAKE__INCLUDE_WHAT_YOU_USE` variable and + :prop_tgt:`_INCLUDE_WHAT_YOU_USE` target property for details. + +* A new ``COMPILE_LANGUAGE`` generator expression was introduced to + allow specification of compile options for target files based on the + :prop_sf:`LANGUAGE` of each source file. Due to limitations of the + underlying native build tools, this feature has varying support across + generators. See the :manual:`cmake-generator-expressions(7)` manual + for details. + +* The :manual:`cmake(1)` ``-E tar`` command learned a new + ``--format`` option to specify the archive format to + be written. + +* The :module:`UseSWIG` module ``SWIG_ADD_MODULE`` macro no + longer attaches the swig invocation custom command to the + ``.i`` source file in IDE projects. This is because only + one custom command can be safely attached to a given source + file, and adding multiple modules with the same ``.i`` file + for different languages requires more than one such command. + +* The :generator:`Visual Studio 10 2010` generator no longer checks + for running VS IDEs with the project open or asks them to reload. + This was originally done for VS 10 because it had been done for + VS 7 through 9 to avoid prompting for every project in a solution. + Since VS >= 10 allow the whole solution to reload at once they + do not need CMake to help them. + +* The :generator:`Visual Studio 6` generator is now deprecated + and will be removed in a future version of CMake. + +* The :generator:`Visual Studio 7` generator (.NET 2002) is now + deprecated and will be removed in a future version of CMake. + +* The :variable:`CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR` variable value for Visual Studio + 7, 8, and 9 is now ``$(ConfigurationName)`` instead of ``$(OutDir)``. + This should have no effect on the intended use cases of the variable. + +* With Visual Studio 7, 8, and 9 generators the value of the ``$(OutDir)`` + placeholder no longer evaluates to the configuration name. Projects + should use ``$(ConfigurationName)`` for that instead. + +* The :ref:`Visual Studio Generators` learned a new + :variable:`CMAKE_VS_INCLUDE_INSTALL_TO_DEFAULT_BUILD` option + to put the ``INSTALL`` target in the default build of a + solution (``.sln``) file. + +* The :ref:`Visual Studio Generators` learned to support ``.xaml`` + source files and automatically associate them with corresponding + ``.h`` and ``.cpp`` sources. + +* The CPack WIX generator learned the new + :prop_inst:`CPACK_START_MENU_SHORTCUTS`, + :prop_inst:`CPACK_DESKTOP_SHORTCUTS` and + :prop_inst:`CPACK_STARTUP_SHORTCUTS` installed file properties which can + be used to install shorcuts in the Start Menu, on the Desktop and + in the Startup Folder respectively. + +* The :prop_tgt:`XCODE_ATTRIBUTE_` target property learned + to support generator expressions. + +* On OS X, CMake learned to create XCTest bundles to test Frameworks + and App Bundles within Xcode. The :module:`FindXCTest` module + provides convenience functions to handle :prop_tgt:`XCTEST` bundles. diff --git a/Help/release/dev/ExternalData-no-symlinks.rst b/Help/release/dev/ExternalData-no-symlinks.rst deleted file mode 100644 index 9323cca..0000000 --- a/Help/release/dev/ExternalData-no-symlinks.rst +++ /dev/null @@ -1,7 +0,0 @@ -ExternalData-no-symlinks ------------------------- - -* The :module:`ExternalData` module learned a new - :variable:`ExternalData_NO_SYMLINKS` option to disable use of - symbolic links to populate the real data files and use copies - instead. diff --git a/Help/release/dev/ExternalData-recursive-match.rst b/Help/release/dev/ExternalData-recursive-match.rst deleted file mode 100644 index 4d8c789..0000000 --- a/Help/release/dev/ExternalData-recursive-match.rst +++ /dev/null @@ -1,7 +0,0 @@ -ExternalData-recursive-match ----------------------------- - -* The :module:`ExternalData` module learned a new ``RECURSE:`` - option in ``DATA{}`` references specifying directories. - This allows an entire directory tree of associated files - to be matched. diff --git a/Help/release/dev/ExternalData-url-algo-map.rst b/Help/release/dev/ExternalData-url-algo-map.rst deleted file mode 100644 index baf661f..0000000 --- a/Help/release/dev/ExternalData-url-algo-map.rst +++ /dev/null @@ -1,8 +0,0 @@ -ExternalData-url-algo-map -------------------------- - -* The :module:`ExternalData` module learned a new URL template - placeholder ``%(algo:)`` to allow custom mapping from - algorithm name to URL component through configuration of new - :variable:`ExternalData_URL_ALGO__` variables. - This allows more flexibility in remote URLs. diff --git a/Help/release/dev/ExternalProject-byproducts-tokens.rst b/Help/release/dev/ExternalProject-byproducts-tokens.rst deleted file mode 100644 index 20b4dd4..0000000 --- a/Help/release/dev/ExternalProject-byproducts-tokens.rst +++ /dev/null @@ -1,5 +0,0 @@ -ExternalProject-byproducts-tokens ---------------------------------- - -* The :module:`ExternalProject` module learned to replace tokens - like ```` in the ``BYPRODUCTS`` of each step. diff --git a/Help/release/dev/ExternalProject-genex.rst b/Help/release/dev/ExternalProject-genex.rst deleted file mode 100644 index 2c7bf8a..0000000 --- a/Help/release/dev/ExternalProject-genex.rst +++ /dev/null @@ -1,6 +0,0 @@ -ExternalProject-genex ---------------------- - -* The :module:`ExternalProject` module APIs learned to support - :manual:`generator expressions ` - when using ``LOG_*`` options and in CMake initial cache options. diff --git a/Help/release/dev/FPHSA-ExactCase-name.rst b/Help/release/dev/FPHSA-ExactCase-name.rst deleted file mode 100644 index 675547c..0000000 --- a/Help/release/dev/FPHSA-ExactCase-name.rst +++ /dev/null @@ -1,10 +0,0 @@ -FPHSA-ExactCase-name --------------------- - -* The :module:`FindPackageHandleStandardArgs` module - ``FIND_PACKAGE_HANDLE_STANDARD_ARGS`` function now - always populates the both ``_FOUND`` - and ``_FOUND`` variables (the latter - for backwards compatibility).
