Top-level code only works as part of executables, which breaks when
`CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE` is set to `STATIC_LIBRARY`. This patch
fixes the test to something agnostic between executables and libraries
while still verifying that we can import types from the standard
library.
Fixes: #25984
`try_compile` and `try_run` now automatically log checks using them to
`CMakeConfigureLog.yaml`.
Add `LOG_DESCRIPTION` arguments to some `try_compile` calls to
replace the description previously written to the old logs.
Issue: #23200
Modify some modules that ship with CMake to use the new SOURCES_FROM_*
arguments to try_compile / try_run as added by commits cb14ae2b87
(try_compile: Add SOURCE_FROM_{ARG,VAR}, 2022-09-21) and 611d801790
(try_compile: Add SOURCE_FROM_FILE, 2022-09-22). This covers users which
previously either used an existing file (but sometimes needed to rename
it), or which wrote out their source in entirety. It does NOT cover
users that actually need configure_file functionality, as those will be
more involved to update and will thus be tackled in part 2.
Modify most of the modules that ship with CMake to use the new
try_compile / try_run signatures added by commit aa9220d3a0
(try_compile: Add keyword-dispatched signature, 2022-09-02). This
improves debugging by each invocation using its own directory so that
the results of multiple invocations can be retained.
This does not cover any invocations which provide an entire project, as
that flavor of try_compile has not yet been updated.
Update the logic that converts a `try_compile` result from a cache
entry to a normal variable to tolerate an existing normal variable
under CMP0126 NEW behavior. Otherwise the `try_compile` result
is ignored because CMake uses the false value of the normal variable,
and CMake incorrectly reports that the compiler does not work.
This went unnoticed for some languages (e.g. C and CXX) because the
check for a working compiler is skipped if ABI detection works.
It does affect other languages (e.g. CSharp).
Fixes: #22423
Populate `CMAKE_Swift_IMPLICIT_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES` with the macOS SDK's
include directory so that we filter such implicit directories out of
Swift targets.
Fixes: #19845
When we report that a compiler was unable to build a simple test
program, indent the output of the attempt so that our message formatting
will show it as a pre-formatted block.
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.
Allow the `Swift` language to be enabled with the Xcode generator for
Xcode >= 6.1. Reject it on other generators and with older Xcode
versions. Since Apple is the only vendor implementing the language
right now, the compiler id can be just `Apple`.
