* When using :variable:`CMAKE_WINDOWS_EXPORT_ALL_SYMBOLS` on Windows the
auto-generated exports are now updated only when the object files
providing the symbols are updated.
Updates
=======
Changes made since CMake 3.16.0 include the following.
3.16.2
------
* CMake 3.16.0 and 3.16.1 processed ``.hh`` files with :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC`.
This was a behavior change from CMake 3.15 and below that can break
existing projects, so it has been reverted as of 3.16.2.
3.16.5
------
* The :module:`FindPython`, :module:`FindPython2`, and :module:`FindPython3`
modules no longer create cache entries for ``Python{,2,3}_LIBRARY_RELEASE``
and ``Python{,2,3}_LIBRARY_DEBUG``. Those values are always computed from
other results and so should not be cached. The entries were created by
CMake 3.16.0 through 3.16.4 but were always ``FORCE``-set and could not
be meaningfully edited by users.
Additionally, the modules no longer expose their internal ``_Python*``
cache entries publicly. CMake 3.16.0 through 3.16.4 accidentally
made them visible as advanced cache entries.
