(DAP - 2019/07/24, HDFFV-9976) + + - Update CMake tests to use FIXTURES + + CMake test fixtures allow setup/cleanup tests and other dependency + requirements as properties for tests. This is more flexible for + modern CMake code. + + (ADB - 2019/07/23, HDFFV-10529) + + - Windows PDB files are always installed + + There are build configuration or flag settings for Windows that may not + generate PDB files. If those files are not generated then the install + utility will fail because those PDB files are not found. An optional + variable, DISABLE_PDB_FILES, was added to not install PDB files. + + (ADB - 2019/07/17, HDFFV-10424) + + - Add mingw CMake support with a toolchain file + + There has been a number of mingw issues that has been linked under + HDFFV-10845. It has been decided to implement the CMake cross-compiling + technique of toolchain files. We will use a linux platform with the mingw + compiler stack for testing. Only the C language is fully supported, and + the error tests are skipped. The C++ language works for static but shared + builds has a shared library issue with the mingw Standard Exception Handling + library, which is not available on Windows. Fortran has a common cross-compile + problem with the fortran configure tests. + + (ADB - 2019/07/12, HDFFV-10845, HDFFV-10595) + + - Windows PDB files are installed incorrectly + + For static builds, the PDB files for windows should be installed next + to the static libraries in the lib folder. Also the debug versions of + libraries and PDB files are now correctly built using the default + CMAKE_DEBUG_POSTFIX setting. + + (ADB - 2019/07/09, HDFFV-10581) + + - Add option to build only shared libs + + A request was made to prevent building static libraries and only build + shared. A new option was added to CMake, ONLY_SHARED_LIBS, which will + skip building static libraries. Certain utility functions will build with + static libs but are not published. Tests are adjusted to use the correct + libraries depending on SHARED/STATIC settings. + + (ADB - 2019/06/12, HDFFV-10805) - Add toolchain and cross-compile support |
