Patched versions of CMake for ReactOS needs

The documentation for CPack generators previously lived in their respective internal CMake modules. This setup was misleading, because it implied that you should include the modules in your own code, which is not the case. Moving the documentation into a separate section does a better job of hiding the internal modules, which are just an implementation detail. The generator documentation has also been modified to remove any references to the module name. The CPackIFW module is a special exception: since it has user-facing macros, the documentation for these macros has been kept in the module page, while all other documentation related to the IFW generator has been moved into the new section. To make it easier to find the new documentation, the old help pages for the CPack*.cmake modules have not been deleted, but have been replaced with a link to their respective help page in the new documentation section. |

CMake ***** Introduction ============ CMake is a cross-platform, open-source build system generator. For full documentation visit the `CMake Home Page`_ and the `CMake Documentation Page`_. .. _`CMake Home Page`: https://cmake.org .. _`CMake Documentation Page`: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/documentation.html CMake is maintained and supported by `Kitware`_ and developed in collaboration with a productive community of contributors. .. _`Kitware`: http://www.kitware.com/cmake License ======= CMake is distributed under the OSI-approved BSD 3-clause License. See `Copyright.txt`_ for details. .. _`Copyright.txt`: Copyright.txt Building CMake ============== Supported Platforms ------------------- * Microsoft Windows * Apple macOS * Linux * FreeBSD * OpenBSD * Solaris * AIX Other UNIX-like operating systems may work too out of the box, if not it should not be a major problem to port CMake to this platform. Subscribe and post to the `CMake Users List`_ to ask if others have had experience with the platform. .. _`CMake Users List`: https://cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake Building CMake from Scratch --------------------------- UNIX/Mac OSX/MinGW/MSYS/Cygwin ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ You need to have a C++ compiler (supporting C++11) and a ``make`` installed. Run the ``bootstrap`` script you find in the source directory of CMake. You can use the ``--help`` option to see the supported options. You may use the ``--prefix=<install_prefix>`` option to specify a custom installation directory for CMake. You can run the ``bootstrap`` script from within the CMake source directory or any other build directory of your choice. Once this has finished successfully, run ``make`` and ``make install``. In summary:: $ ./bootstrap && make && make install Windows ^^^^^^^ You need to download and install a binary release of CMake in order to build CMake. You can get these releases from the `CMake Download Page`_ . Then proceed with the instructions below. .. _`CMake Download Page`: https://cmake.org/cmake/resources/software.html Building CMake with CMake ------------------------- You can build CMake as any other project with a CMake-based build system: run the installed CMake on the sources of this CMake with your preferred options and generators. Then build it and install it. For instructions how to do this, see documentation on `Running CMake`_. .. _`Running CMake`: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/runningcmake.html Reporting Bugs ============== If you have found a bug: 1. If you have a patch, please read the `CONTRIBUTING.rst`_ document. 2. Otherwise, please join the `CMake Users List`_ and ask about the expected and observed behaviors to determine if it is really a bug. 3. Finally, if the issue is not resolved by the above steps, open an entry in the `CMake Issue Tracker`_. .. _`CMake Issue Tracker`: https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/issues Contributing ============ See `CONTRIBUTING.rst`_ for instructions to contribute. .. _`CONTRIBUTING.rst`: CONTRIBUTING.rst
