The PDB file name for VCLinkerTool is specified by the xml attribute
"ProgramDatabaseFile", not "ProgramDataBaseFile" (note the lower-case
character 'b'). VS seems to cope with the incorrect capitalization but
the combination of VS 7.1 and Incredibuild does not. See issue #10614.
Report in <UpdateReturnStatus> when the update command line returns
non-zero. Otherwise the failure may be silently ignored since the error
was previously recorded only in the local log file.
These were implementation details of the unused methods
cmMakefile::RegisterData
cmMakefile::LookupData
We simply remove the methods, members, and class cmData.
For builds from Git repositories, add "-g<commit>" to the end of the
version number. If the source tree is modified, append "-dirty".
For builds from CVS checkouts, add "-cvs-<branch>".
Add the [.tweak] version component throughout the policy implementation.
Document all components for the cmake_policy(VERSION) command. Record
the tweak level in which each policy was introduced (0 for all current
policies). In generated documentation we report the tweak level only if
it is not zero. This preserves existing documentation.
The command now accepts four version components in the format
major[.minor[.patch[.tweak]]]
This corresponds to the new versioning scheme introduced recently.
Prepare to switch to the workflow described by "git help workflows". In
this workflow, the "master" branch is always used to integrate topics
ready for release. Brand new work merges into a "next" branch instead.
We need a new versioning scheme to work this way because the version on
"master" must always increase.
We no longer use an even/odd minor number to distinguish releases from
development versions. Since we still support cvs checkout of our source
tree we cannot depend on "git describe" to compute a version number
based on the history graph. We can use the CCYYMMDD nightly date stamp
to get a monotonically increasing version component.
The new version format is "major.minor.patch.(tweak|date)". Releases
use a tweak level in the half-open range [0,20000000), which is smaller
than any current or future date. For tweak=0 we do not show the tweak
component, leaving the format "major.minor.patch" for most releases.
Development versions use date=CCYYMMDD for the tweak level. The
major.minor.patch part of development versions on "master" always
matches the most recent release.
For example, a first-parent traversal of "master" might see
v2.8.1 2.8.1.20100422 v2.8.2

----o----o----o----o----o----o----o----o----
Since the date appears in the tweak component, the next release can
increment the patch level (or any more significant component) to be
greater than any version leading to it. Topic branches not ready for
release are published only on "next" so we know that all versions on
master lead between two releases.
Commit "Support more special characters in file(STRINGS)" (2009-10-06)
attempted to support parsing strings from binaries produced by the
Portland Group Fortran compiler. The compiler seems to put an extra
byte just at the end of its string literals. Previously we dealt with
this by explicitly enumerating bytes known to occur, but it seems that
many such possibilities exist. Now we support extraction of strings
that end in any non-ASCII character.
The SaveRestoreEnvironment helper object makes sure that the
original environment is restored immediately after the
StartProcess call returns rather than waiting for the end
of the test. When tests are executed in parallel, there is
no guarantee about the ordering of EndTest calls relative
to StartTest calls. In fact, it would be odd for them to
be nested nicely. Therefore, to avoid the corruption of
the calling ctest's environment, the original environment
must be restored before ForkProcess returns.
Detect the runtime linker's search path and add to the compile time
linker's search path. This is needed because OpenBSD's static linker
does not search for shared library dependencies in the same places as
the runtime linker.
Teach kwsysProcessKill to identify processes on this platform using the "ps"
command just as on Linux. Patch from Modestas Vainius <modax@debian.org>.
See issue #10432.
The compiler id is checked for C++ and C, if there is not one
of those available, then just default to gcc. This makes it
work with Fortran, or None projects.
This makes the behavior of the build with the Visual Studio generators
equivalent to the behavior of makefile based builds. After an error
in a custom command sequence, the build stops and reports an error
rather than executing the remaining commands in the sequence.
