Now cpack_ifw_configure_file command used to configure
template files of component's scripts.
Now for these template files we can use QtIFW predefined
variables (like @VAR@) and template variables
in Qt/IFW/SDK/Creator templates style (like %VAR%).
Now CMake_INSTALL_INFIX advanced variable used to configure
CMake installation destination when package as part of QtSDK.
The file contains some conditions depending on the existence of CMake
modules. This basically checks for CMake versions that are no longer
supported. Remove the conditions.
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names and years are hard to maintain and often out-of-date or plain wrong.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.
Download http://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl.txt and place it as
Licenses/LGPLv3.txt in our source tree. When building cmake-gui, use
option CMake_GUI_DISTRIBUTE_WITH_Qt_LGPL to enable notification in the
"About" dialog of how the distribution of Qt is licensed. Install the
license file as ${CMAKE_ROOT}/Licenses/LGPLv3.txt so that the dialog can
display a path to it.
Use a custom action to look for Uninstall.exe in the user
selected installation prefix.
Its presence indicates a previous NSIS installation.
Inform the user and request manual resolution of the issue.
The CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME is "CYGWIN", but we also define a variable
named "CYGWIN" to "1". Avoid allowing if() to expand the "CYGWIN"
string as a variable.
CPack IFW generator updates:
- Group now can have script;
- Root package (for monolithic or one package installers) can be
configured from group.
CMake updates:
- Native installation (no Unspecified component).
Remove the version number from the default package install destination.
An unversioned default allows users to upgrade their CMake installations
without manually re-generating all their build trees to update the path
to CMake. Users can select a versioned directory name on installation
if they wish.
Also name the package with the full CMake version number so it is clear
exactly what version is going to be installed. This is particularly
helpful for the nightly binary installers.
Set CPACK_WIX_UPGRADE_GUID. Without this upgrade GUID, you end up with
multiple instances of the same installation when installing cmake from a
WIX generated installer.
Makes it easy to override it, by priming the cache from a release
build script, for example.
Also: correct mistaken @@ variable references with plain ${}
style references so that future readers do not think that it
must be an input to configure_file...
Ancient versions of CMake required else(), endif(), and similar block
termination commands to have arguments matching the command starting the
block. This is no longer the preferred style.
Run the following shell code:
for c in else endif endforeach endfunction endmacro endwhile; do
echo 's/\b'"$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
Problem with CMake 2.8.4-rc1: when you launch the NSIS exe installer
on Windows, the default install path shown to the end user is, at first,
"\CMake 2.8".
This problem started occurring when configuring CMake itself with an
older CMake, after adding CPACK_NSIS_INSTALL_ROOT to fix issue 9148.
So... it's a regression from 2.8.3.
I forgot (again) that when you add a new CPack variable, you must
add it to CMake's CMakeCPack.cmake file or else it is empty when
configured with an older CMake. And on Windows, without a bootstrap
build available, the releases are always configured with an older
version of CMake. This may be the last time this has bitten me,
though, because it is now burned into my brain that problems with
CMake's installer itself are inevitably associated with adding new
CPack variables.
In addition to adding a definition for CPACK_NSIS_INSTALL_ROOT,
I've gone ahead and made it differ for the 32- and 64-bit builds
of CMake to give the end user the expected default value for the
Program Files folder for each one.
And, since I was adding a new 32/64 differentiator anyhow, I made
the "NSIS package name" and "installer registry key base" different
for 64-bit builds, too, by appending " (Win64)" to each one.
These address the concerns mentioned in 9148's related issue:
http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=9094 (at least as far
as CMake's installer is concerned). 9094 could still use a good
general fix for all projects, though, and remains open for now.
The parent commit added a warning message whenever a required file
does not exist.
As it turns out, the "required" files never exist when built with
Visual Studio Express editions. Add a variable to suppress these
warning messages because only packagers or naive includers of
this file will care to see such warning messages.
We want to warn about this condition by default so that people who
are using InstallRequiredSystemLibraries without understanding it
fully will have a chance of understanding why it's not working in
the event of missing required files.
But we also want to give projects the ability to suppress this warning
(by "project's choice default") so that they can encourage users who
are restricted to using an Express edition to build their project.
Packagers should explicitly use...
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_SYSTEM_RUNTIME_LIBS_NO_WARNINGS=OFF
...when building releases. That way, their release build process will warn
them about any missing files, but only if their project CMakeLists files
use a construct similar to CMake's:
IF(NOT DEFINED CMAKE_INSTALL_SYSTEM_RUNTIME_LIBS_NO_WARNINGS)
SET(CMAKE_INSTALL_SYSTEM_RUNTIME_LIBS_NO_WARNINGS ON)
ENDIF()
Override CMAKE_DOC_DIR and CMAKE_DATA_DIR cache entries on Cygwin early
enough so the new values are used everywhere. Previously only some of
the uses were overridden. Also set CPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION to the whole
CMake_VERSION so that the Cygwin MANIFEST file goes in the proper path.
This converts the CMake license to a pure 3-clause OSI-approved BSD
License. We drop the previous license clause requiring modified
versions to be plainly marked. We also update the CMake copyright to
cover the full development time range.
This moves the version numbers into an isolated configured header so
that not all of CMake needs to rebuild when the version changes.
Previously we had spaces, dashes and/or the word 'patch' randomly chosen
before the patch number. Now we always report version numbers in the
traditional format "<major>.<minor>.<patch>[-rc<rc>]".
We still use odd minor numbers for development versions. Now we also
use the CCYYMMDD date as the patch number of development versions, thus
allowing tests for exact CMake versions.
-remove the unscriptable commands also from the cpack cmake
-use CPACK_PACKAGE_CONTACT in CMakeCPack.cmake, it's used in the nsis and
the deb generator
-make set_properties() scriptable
-use a non-const char array for adding the python modules
