This marks all `<PACKAGENAME>_FOUND` result variables as deprecated
where possible (for `<PackageName>` find modules) to make it clearer
which variable to use.
In CMake 3.3, the FindPackageHandleStandardArgs module was refactored to
set both `<PackageName>_FOUND` and uppercase `<PACKAGENAME>_FOUND`
result variables to the same values. Before that, the FOUND_VAR argument
could be used to set the result variable.
* FindMatlab: Uppercased MATLAB_FOUND is not mentioned as it was never
documented.
* Documentation for FindPythonInterp and FindPythonLibs modules synced
accordingly to their deprecation (3.12 instead of 4.2).
* OPENGL_FOUND: deprecation version synced with other find modules.
* DevIL_FOUND was introduced in CMake 3.8. The uppercased variant not
mentioned as it was previously never documented.
Fixes: #27242
Since most of the find modules use the `<PackageName>_FOUND` result
variables, this now also syncs it for the FindPkgConfig module. The
`PkgConfig_FOUND` result variable is available since CMake 3.3 and
contains the same value. There is also `PKGCONFIG_FOUND` result variable
automatically set with the same value but for simplicity isn't
documented. The uppercased `<PACKAGENAME>_FOUND` result variables set by
find modules are also considered legacy variables.
- Added intro code block showing how to use this module.
- Reworded variable descriptions.
- Moved imported targets section to top.
- Added examples section.
Since commit d74210a8bd (CMP0017: Remove support for OLD behavior,
2024-11-17) we can rely on CMP0017's NEW behavior unconditionally.
Calling `include(FindPackageHandleStandardArgs)` in a builtin module
will always get the builtin `FindPackageHandleStandardArgs`.
Before calling pkg_check_modules, modules must check PKG_CONFIG_FOUND.
When FindPkgConfig.cmake is loaded, pkg_check_modules is always defined
regardless of pkg-config being present. However, the whole module might
be disabled on user request with CMAKE_DISABLE_FIND_PACKAGE_PkgConfig.
This must not break Find modules which just look for a hint or similar.
Since commit 2c9e623e31 (Find{BLAS,LAPACK}: Add support for the NVHPC
LAPACK library, 2021-05-05, v3.21.0-rc1~192^2) we try the `-fortranlibs`
option as a dependency of the NVHPC LAPACK. That flag is specific to
the NVHPC/PGI compilers, so use it conditionally with them.
Without this modification, CMake fails to find LAPACK if
- compiler ID is GNU
- `BLA_STATIC` is `ON`
- `BLA_VENDOR` is not defined or set to `All`
Fixes: #23705, #22878
The BLA_PREFER_PKGCONFIG switch is not that useful if you are not able
to specify the pkg-config package to use. This adds BLA_PKGCONFIG_BLAS
and BLA_PKGCONFIG_LAPACK to that effect, allowing user choice in
environments that install differing variants of the BLAS libraries
with distinct .pc file names.
This is part of work to get more standardized installations of the
BLAS libs with specific names, likely blas.pc and lapack.pc only
for Netlib reference code, or maybe blas-netlib.pc and lapack-netlib.pc,
in any case distinct from choices like openblas-openmp.pc.
With Cray compiler wrappers (implicitly tested on OLCF Spock) the
BLAS and LAPACK libraries are automatically linked as necessary through
the wrapper script and programming environment. With this change, the
configure output is:
```
-- Found BLAS: implicitly linked
<snip>
-- Found LAPACK: implicitly linked
```
rather than
```
-- Found BLAS: 1
<snip>
-- Found LAPACK: LAPACK_LIBRARIES-PLACEHOLDER-FOR-EMPTY-LIBRARIES
```
Logic added by commit 4c74c86f40 (FindBLAS/LAPACK: Add support for the
Fujitsu SSL2 library, 2021-01-27, v3.21.0-rc1~402^2~1) accidentally
expressed a boolean condition without proper grouping. The pattern was
then copied by commit 2c9e623e31 (Find{BLAS,LAPACK}: Add support for the
NVHPC LAPACK library, 2021-05-05, v3.21.0-rc1~192^2). The resulting
logic incorrectly tries Fujitsu and NVHPC vendors even after results are
found from another vendor, and then erases those. Fix the grouping.
Fixes: #22403
Now that `CHECK_{BLAS,LAPACK}_LIBRARIES` are functions, we can set
`CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES` locally without affecting the global
state. This avoids the need for local state switching that was added in
commit 9ef82d95d8 (FindBLAS: Fix detection of OpenMP as dependency of
BLA_STATIC, 2021-04-07, v3.20.1~3^2), so remove that.
