Since commit d44c0db0b2 (clang: setup correct configuration in gnu mode,
2019-02-20, v3.15.0-rc1~41^2~5) we support the GNU-like Clang that
targets the MSVC ABI. However, Clang cannot compile with the MSVC
standard library unless it runs in a mode aware of C++14 (since MSVC
itself does not even have a lower mode). When `CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD` is
set to 98 or 11, use C++14 anyway.
Since Clang's default mode is aware of C++14, another option is to not
add any flags for 98 or 11. However, if a future Clang version ever
defaults to a higher C++ standard, setting the standard to 98 or 11
should at least not use a mode higher than 14.
Also revert test updates from commit 4819ff9647 (Tests: fix failures
with gnu mode clang on windows, 2019-03-21, v3.15.0-rc1~41^2~3) that
were meant to work around the standard selection problem.
Fixes: #19496
Root causes were:
* Using incorrect conditions (assuming MSVC-like command line mode)
* Trying to compile the MSVC STL in C++11 mode, when parts of it require
C++14 or enabling MS extensions in clang.
* Missing flush in a testcase using stdout in a dll and a main part
with static crt
CMake will soon require both C++11 and libuv to build. Neither of
these works on HP-UX, so unfortunately we need to drop support for
the platform until someone can get them working.
Issue: #17137
Optional spaces and/or tabs are now understood between the '#' character
and the 'cmakedefine'/'cmakedefine01' words. This indentation is
preserved in the output lines.
Fixes: #13037
These tests cover the OLD behavior of some policies. Set them to
OLD to avoid warnings in the test output. Leave a comment that
explains why this is done here but not recommended in general.
Old versions of aCC need a special compiler flag to get full C++98 template
support as e.g. CMake itself or the Complex and ComplexOneConfig tests need.
The same versions need a special flag to get a proper C++ library, too.
Since commit 7d47c693 (Drop compatibility with CMake < 2.4, 2013-10-08)
we no longer need to use the configure_file IMMEDIATE option to support
compatibility modes less than 2.0.
Drop all behavior activated by setting CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY to
a value lower than 2.4, and generate an error when projects or the user
attempt to do so. In the error suggest using a CMake 2.8.x release.
Teach cmake_minimum_required to warn about projects that do not require
at least CMake 2.4. They are not supported by CMake >= 3.0.
Replace the documentation of CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY with a
reference to policy CMP0001.
Ancient versions of CMake required else(), endif(), and similar block
termination commands to have arguments matching the command starting the
block. This is no longer the preferred style.
Run the following shell code:
for c in else endif endforeach endfunction endmacro endwhile; do
echo 's/\b'"$c"'\(\s*\)(.\+)/'"$c"'\1()/'
done >convert.sed &&
git ls-files -z -- bootstrap '*.cmake' '*.cmake.in' '*CMakeLists.txt' |
egrep -z -v '^(Utilities/cm|Source/kwsys/)' |
egrep -z -v 'Tests/CMakeTests/While-Endwhile-' |
xargs -0 sed -i -f convert.sed &&
rm convert.sed
Previously we passed inputs to the decision to each Complex test and let
the test source decide. This commit moves the decision out of the tests
and makes it an option() in their source. This makes it possible to
build the Complex tests from outside the CMake test tree.
This creates global property RULE_MESSAGES which can be set to disbale
per-rule progress and action reporting. On Windows, these reports may
cause a noticable delay due to the cost of starting extra processes.
This feature will allow scripted builds to avoid the cost since they do
not need detailed information anyway. This replaces the RULE_PROGRESS
property created earlier as it is more complete. See issue #8726.

It is likely that projects or CMake modules in the future will need to
check the value of a policy setting. For example, if we add a policy
that affects the results of FindXYZ.cmake modules, the module code will
need to be able to check the policy.
- This will help projects support multiple CMake versions.
- In order to set a policy when using a newer CMake but still
working with an older CMake one may write
if(POLICY CMP1234)
cmake_policy(SET CMP1234 NEW)
endif(POLICY CMP1234)
- Note that since CMake 2.4 does not have if(POLICY) supporting
it will also require using "if(COMMAND cmake_policy)"
