Add initial support for exporting (install only, for now) Common Package Specification (https://cps-org.github.io/cps/) format package descriptions. This has some limitations, such as not supporting generator expressions (as these cannot be portably exported), and only partially supporting transitive dependencies, but should be usable for at least some simple cases. (Actually, $<LINK_ONLY> is theoretically supportable, but is not yet implemented.) This still needs tests; these will be added in the next commit. Other potential improvements include support for language-specific compile definitions and inferring some package properties from project properties. Additionally, there is no module support yet; this is partly pending on having a tool agnostic format for providing the necessary information.
CMake Development ***************** This directory contains documentation about development of CMake itself. It is not part of the user documentation distributed with CMake. Contributor Instructions ======================== See `CONTRIBUTING.rst`_ for instructions to contribute changes. The process for contributing changes is the same whether or not one has been invited to participate directly in upstream development. .. _`CONTRIBUTING.rst`: ../../CONTRIBUTING.rst Upstream Development ==================== CMake uses `Kitware's GitLab Instance`_ to manage development, review, and integration of changes. The `CMake Repository`_ holds the integration branches and tags. Upstream development processes are covered by the following documents: * The `CMake Review Process`_ manages integration of changes. * The `CMake Integration Testing`_ infrastructure tests changes before and after merging. .. _`Kitware's GitLab Instance`: https://gitlab.kitware.com .. _`CMake Repository`: https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake .. _`CMake Review Process`: review.rst .. _`CMake Integration Testing`: integration-testing.rst Developer Documentation ======================= CMake developer documentation is provided by the following documents: * The `CMake Source Code Guide`_. * The `CMake Documentation Guide`_. * The `CMake Testing Guide`_. * The `CMake Experimental Features Guide`_. .. _`CMake Source Code Guide`: source.rst .. _`CMake Documentation Guide`: documentation.rst .. _`CMake Testing Guide`: testing.rst .. _`CMake Experimental Features Guide`: experimental.rst Maintainer Documentation ======================== CMake maintainer documentation is provided by the following documents: * The `CMake Maintainer Guide`_. .. _`CMake Maintainer Guide`: maint.rst
