Provide a standardized way to handle the C++ "standard" headers
customized to be used with current CMake C++ standard constraints.
Offer under directory `cm` headers which can be used as direct
replacements of the standard ones. For example:
#include <cm/string_view>
can be used safely for CMake development in place of the `<string_view>`
standard header.
Fixes: #19491
Use std::string (with correct initial size) in cmOutputConverter::Shell__GetArgument
instead of ostringstream. This avoids several re-allocations of the
string buffer. In addition, convert some of the private static members into
inline free functions to avoid function calls.
Port dependents to the new locations as needed.
Leave behind a cmState.h include in cmListFileCache to reduce noise. It
is removed in a following commit.
The conditional early return can be moved to clients, which would have
many benefits, notably making cmOutputConverter independent of
directory-specific state.
Per-source copyright/license notice headers that spell out copyright holder
names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.
Precise contributor information is already maintained automatically by the
version control tool. Ultimately it is the receiver of a file who is
responsible for determining its licensing status, and per-source notices are
merely a convenience. Therefore it is simpler and more accurate for
each source to have a generic notice of the license name and references to
more detailed information on copyright holders and full license terms.
Our `Copyright.txt` file now contains a list of Contributors whose names
appeared source-level copyright notices. It also references version control
history for more precise information. Therefore we no longer need to spell
out the list of Contributors in each source file notice.
Replace CMake per-source copyright/license notice headers with a short
description of the license and links to `Copyright.txt` and online information
available from "https://cmake.org/licensing". The online URL also handles
cases of modules being copied out of our source into other projects, so we
can drop our notices about replacing links with full license text.
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/filter-notices.bash` script to perform the majority
of the replacements mechanically. Manually fix up shebang lines and trailing
newlines in a few files. Manually update the notices in a few files that the
script does not handle.
Split the ConvertToRelativePath funtion into ConvertToRelativePath and
ForceToRelativePath. Both functions take the local path as a string
rather than a vector of path segments. Reimplement the old interface on
top of the two new functions for interface compatibility.
Remove the 'optional' paramenter from the second overload of the Convert
function. This parameter is used from one single location. Inline the
codepath for which the argument is true to the callsite.
Run the `Utilities/Scripts/clang-format.bash` script to update
all our C++ code to a new style defined by `.clang-format`.
Use `clang-format` version 3.8.

Some commands on Windows do not understand forward slash paths and
require backslashes. In order to help projects generate shell
invocations of such commands, provide a generator expression to convert
paths to the shell-preferred path format for the current generator.
This will allow custom commands to generate paths the same way CMake
does for compiler command invocations.
Port code from the KWSys System_Shell APIs into cmOutputConverter.
Drop it from our copy of KWSys because upstream will drop it too,
and by doing it in this commit 'git blame' may have an easier time
connecting the history of the content.
The Convert methods never belonged to the local generator concept, so
split them out now. The cmOutputConverter is cheap to construct and
destroy, so it can be instantiated where needed to perform
conversions. This will allow further decoupling of cmLocalGenerator
from the configure step.
Inherit cmLocalGenerator from cmOutputConverter for the purpose of
source compatibility.
