To be more consistent between genex and variables as well as
the forecomming LINK_GROUP genex, rename variable *_LINK_USING_<FEATURE>*
in *_LINK_LIBRARY_USING_<FEATURE>*

Improve the documentation added by commit ec8d37b3b1 (VS: Support
version specification in CMAKE_GENERATOR_INSTANCE, 2021-10-26,
v3.23.0-rc1~452^2~1).
Fixes: #23225
Add section headers for each signature, and a synopsis linking to them.
Re-order sections to introduce the main `export(TARGETS)` functionality
before mentioning the `export(EXPORT)` shorthand, which may be confused
with `install(EXPORT)`.
Fixes: #23221
This variable was added by commit 42f74df6d4 (Add basic Android platform
module, 2014-06-06, v3.1.0-rc1~416^2), but was not previously documented.
Fixes: #23227
Always using `_supported_components` causes conflicts when transitive
dependencies also set this variable, e.g., because the developers
followed these code samples.
An even more general approach could be to set
`_${CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_NAME}_supported_components` instead, but such a
change should then be applied to other variables for consistency.
Fixes: #23112
The wording update in commit b74819e4fe (Help: Format 'if' command
documentation, 2013-12-18, v3.0.0-rc1~227^2~1) incorrectly implied that
`AND` has higher precedence than `OR`. Although this is common in many
languages, it has never been true in CMake's implementation. Revise
the wording to clarify the precedence.
Add a test case demonstrating the order.
Fixes: #23207
After !6954 got merged, it has become easier for tools to get
full stack-traces for runtime traces of a CMake program. The trace
information already included in the JSON objects (line number, source
file path) allows tools that display these stack traces to print the
CMake source code associated to them. However, CMake commands may
spawn multiple lines, and the JSON information associated to a trace
only contains the line in which the command started, but not the one
in which it ended. If tools want to print stack traces along the
relevant source code, and they want to print the whole command
associated to the stack frame, they will have to implement their own
CMake language parser to know where the command ends.
In order to simplify the life of those who want to write tooling for
CMake, this commit adds a `line_end` field to the json-v1 trace
format. If a given command spans multiple lines, the `line_end` field
will contain the line of the last line spanned by the command (that of
the closing parenthesis associated to the command).
To enable the management of incompatible $<LINK_LIBRARY> declarations,
add LINK_LIBRARY_OVERRIDE and LINK_LIBRARY_OVERRIDE_<LIBRARY> target
properties.
This generator expression offers the capability, for the link step, to
decorate libraries with prefix/suffix flags and/or adding any specific flag for each
library.
Fixes: #22812, #18751, #20078, #22703
Tools using the json-v1 format might want to trace stack frames across
different `CMakeLists.txt` files, in order to, for example, provide
stacktraces that span from the top-level `CMakeLists.txt` in a
project. One would think that `frame` lets you do that, but it
doesn't, because it tells you the depth of the stack within the
current `CMakeLists.txt`, so it gets reset across calls to
`add_subdirectory`.
The solution involves adding a field with a "global frame". This value
gets incremented on calls to `add_subdirectory`, which makes it easier
for tools to reconstruct "global stacktraces".
I considered changing the current "frame" value, but I didn't because
it would be a breaking change. I cannot think of any use-case where
"frame" is more useful to "global-frame", but maybe I'm missing
something.
The previous wording could be misread as ensuring the arguments to the
call match the release version. Clarify that one needs to remove the
call and replace it with the literal release version string.
Implements a -- delimiter, that indicates the end of options (starting
with a dash -) of a command and separates them from the subsequent
operands (positional arguments).
The following commands are affected:
- env: Implemented the -- delimiter.
- cat: The -- delimiter was already kind of considered, but its
occurence did not stop the options parsing.
- rm: Here the command already implemented the -- delimiter as
specified, but it was not documented.
Fixes#22970
This brings the patch step into line with all the others which already
had their own `USES_TERMINAL_<step>` keyword. All steps (including
patch) already have their own `LOG_<step>` keyword too, so the lack of
`USES_TERMINAL_PATCH` was inconsistent.
Run the script:
Utilities/Sphinx/update_versions.py --since v3.22.0 --overwrite
Manually select updates that really belong to the 3.23 release, as
against adding documentation for previously-existing entities.
