In commit da5ac4bb60 (cpack: Add `CPACK_INSTALL_CMAKE_CONFIGURATIONS`
variable, 2019-07-10, v3.16.0-rc1~165^2) we added both the variable
and support for `cpack -C` with multiple configurations. Drop the
variable because the `package` target cannot ensure that all of the
configurations are built. Keep the command-line interface so that
it can be used manually in scripts.
Fixes: #19918
For the multi-configuration generators one can specify the list
of configurations to include in the package.
E.g. having a project, where debug libraries have a suffix to
distinct them from the release builds, one can build the package
containing both `Debug` and `Release` binaries.
The singular name `CPACK_INSTALL_SCRIPT` has existed but was not linked
from the CPack documentation. Also, it supported multiple values and
should have had a plural name. Add a plural-named alternative now.
If both `CPACK_INSTALL_SCRIPTS` and `CPACK_INSTALL_SCRIPT` are set then
ignore the latter with a warning.

In particular, make clear that package/installer generators
are not the makefile generators of the cmake command.
Also insert sections in CPack doc, and capitalize section titles.
In commit v3.12.0-rc1~136^2 (CPack: Use project version as default for
`CPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION`, 2018-04-29) we did not account for the value of
`CMAKE_PROJECT_VERSION_{MAJOR,MINOR,PATCH}` having `0`. Fix the logic
to distinguish between unprovided version components and `0` components.
While at it, add a test case covering the behavior described in the
documentation by the original commit. The number of version components
in the package name should match those provided to the `project()`
command `VERSION` option.
Fixes: #18199
Create a CPack generator that uses `nuget.exe` to create packages:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/what-is-nuget
NuGet packages could be easily produced from a `*.nuspec` file (running
`nuget pack` in the directory w/ the spec file). The spec filename does
not affect the result `*.nupkg` name -- only `id` and `version` elements
of the spec are used (by NuGet).
Some implementation details:
* Minimize C++ code -- use CMake script do to the job. It just let the
base class (`cmCPackGenerator`) to preinstall everything to a temp
directory, render the spec file and run `nuget pack` in it, harvesting
`*.nupkg` files...;
* Ignore package name (and use default paths) prepared by the base class
(only `CPACK_TEMPORARY_DIRECTORY` is important) -- final package
filename is a responsibility of NuGet, so after generation just scan the
temp directory for the result `*.nupkg` file(s) and update
`packageFileNames` data-member of the generator;
* The generator supports _all-in-one_ (default), _one-group-per-package_
and _one-component-per-package_ modes.
* Introduce `CMAKE_PROJECT_VERSION` and the corresponsing components:
`CMAKE_PROJECT_VERSION_MAJOR`, `CMAKE_PROJECT_VERSION_MINOR`,
`CMAKE_PROJECT_VERSION_PATCH` and `CMAKE_PROJECT_VERSION_TWEAK`.
* `CPack` module use `CMAKE_PROJECT_VERSION_MAJOR`,
`CMAKE_PROJECT_VERSION_MINOR` and `CMAKE_PROJECT_VERSION_PATCH`
to initialize corresponsing CPack variables.
This is primarily a cleanup of the cpack(1) page. The cpack.cxx file
and CPack module were also updated to make the docs relating to
the generator specification and option names consistent in all
three places.
Introduces CPACK_DEFAULT_DIRECTORY_INSTALL_PERMISSIONS
variable which adds support for functionality introduced
by CMAKE_DEFAULT_DIRECTORY_INSTALL_PERMISSIONS variable.

Adds an option CPACK_ENABLE_FREEBSD_PKG to allow CPack to look
for FreeBSD's libpkg / pkg(8). If this is set and the libpkg
headers and library are found (which they will be, by default,
on any FreeBSD system), then add a FreeBSD pkg(8) generator.
The FreeBSD package tool pkg(8) uses tar.xz files (.txz) with two
metadata files embedded (+MANIFEST and +COMPACT_MANIFEST).
This introduces a bunch of FreeBSD-specific CPACK_FREEBSD_PACKAGE_*
variables for filling in the metadata; the Debian generator does
something similar. Documentation for the CPack CMake-script is styled
after the Debian generator.
Implementation notes:
- Checks for libpkg -- the underlying implementation for pkg(8) --
and includes FreeBSD package-generation if building CMake on
a UNIX host. Since libpkg can be used on BSDs, Linux and OSX,
this potentially adds one more packaging format. In practice,
this will only happen on FreeBSD and DragonflyBSD.
- Copy-paste from cmCPackArchiveGenerator to special-case
the metadata generation and to run around the internal
archive generation: use libpkg instead.
- Generating the metadata files is a little contrived.
- Most of the validation logic for package settings is in
CPackFreeBSD.cmake, as well as the code that tries to re-use
packaging settings that may already be set up for Debian.
- libpkg has its own notion of output filename, so we have
another contrived bit of code that munges the output file
list so that CPack can find the output.
- Stick with C++98.
It is quite often the project description has used in a real world software.
Examples include:
* part of a help screen of the application
* builtin resources (`*.rc` files, data for "About" dialog of a GUI app, & etc)
* most generators for CPack can use it
* it could be used by documentary software (Doxygen, Sphinx) which is usually
integrated to CMake based projects via `add_custom_target()`
Now `project()` call learned an optional `DESCRIPTION` parameter with a
short string describing a project. Being specified, it would set the
`PROJECT_DESCRIPTION` variable which could be used in `configure_file()`
or whatever user wants. Also `PROJECT_DESCRIPTION` is a default value
for `CPACK_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION_SUMMARY`.
Spell out the supported algorithms in a definition list in the
`string(<HASH>)` command documentation. Revise the `file(<HASH>)`
command and CPack module documentation to reference it instead of
duplicating the list.
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.
We support setting CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT to a symbolic value like "macosx".
Modules/Platform/Darwin-Initialize.cmake takes care of finding the
actual SDK path on disk. Use that result to set CPACK_OSX_SYSROOT
instead.
If variable is set to TRUE, values of all variables prefixed with CPACK_
will be escaped so special characters such as dolar sign, quotes or
foreward slash will not be lost. By default variable is treated as set
to FALSE for back compatibility.
The cpack_encode_variables macro is changed into a function to remove
scope pollution. There should be no other effects.
Mangling is prevented by using a function instead of a macro for setting
default value of some CPack variables. Function is meant for internal use
in CPack.cmake only.
Old macro is deprecated but kept for backwards compatibility - was
intended for internal use only as it can't be used for CPack after
CPack.cmake script is included.
Patch removes local workarounds that were required by old macro,
fixes default setting of variables that by default inherit value from
another variable that already went through old default setting macro
(e.g. value of CPACK_PACKAGE_INSTALL_REGISTRY_KEY caused error for
wrong escapes if CPACK_PACKAGE_INSTALL_DIRECTORY contained escaped
back slashes) and provides a test for correct escaping of characters.
When targeting Windows with a 64-bit architecture, use "$PROGRAMFILES64"
to get the Program Files folder. Use CMAKE_SIZEOF_VOID_P to check for
the architecture size instead of CMAKE_CL_64 because the latter is not
defined for all compilers.

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.
As mentioned in commit 4693cf84 (Xcode: Detect new default locations of
Xcode 4.3 bits and pieces) PackageMaker was split out of Xcode 4.3 and
above into a separate Auxiliary tools package. Since Xcode 5.0 or so,
Apple no longer distributes PackageMaker as part of the available
development tools so it can only be obtained from old packages.
Disable the CPACK_BINARY_PACKAGEMAKER option by default as is the case
for most other tool-dependent generators.
