Restore the change from commitf84af8e270(add_test: Allow special characters in test name, 2020-05-16, v3.18.0-rc1~142^2) that had to be reverted by commitf84af8e270(add_test: Allow special characters in test name, 2020-05-16, v3.18.0-rc1~142^2) for compatibility. Add policy CMP0110 to make the change in a compatible way. Also, support even more characters than before by generating the test scripts using bracket arguments around the test names. Fixes: #19391 Signed-off-by: Deniz Bahadir <dbahadir@benocs.com>

-------
|
|
|
|
:command:`add_test` supports arbitrary characters in test names.
|
|
|
|
:command:`add_test` can now (officially) create tests with whitespace and
|
|
other special characters in its name. Before CMake version 3.19 that was not
|
|
allowed, however, it was possible to work around this limitation by explicitly
|
|
putting escaped quotes arount the test's name in the ``add_test`` command.
|
|
|
|
Although never officially supported several projects in the wild found and
|
|
implemented this workaround. However, the new change which officially allows
|
|
the ``add_test`` command to support whitespace and other special characters in
|
|
test names now breaks that workaround. In order for these projects to work
|
|
smoothly with newer CMake versions, this policy was introduced.
|
|
|
|
The ``OLD`` behavior of this policy is to still prevent ``add_test`` from
|
|
handling whitespace and special characters properly (if not using the
|
|
mentioned workaround). The ``NEW`` behavior on the other hand allows names
|
|
with whitespace and special characters for tests created by ``add_test``.
|
|
|
|
This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.19. CMake version |release|
|
|
warns when the policy is not set and uses ``OLD`` behavior. Use the
|
|
:command:`cmake_policy` command to set it to ``OLD`` or ``NEW`` explicitly.
