Changes
-------
In `cmSystemTools` this
- renames the method `ExpandList` to `ExpandLists` and makes it iterator based
and adds the methods
- `std::vector<std::string> ExpandedLists(InputIt first, InputIt last)`
- `std::vector<std::string> ExpandedListArgument(const std::string& arg,
bool emptyArgs)`
Both return the `std::vector<std::string>` instead of taking a return vector
reference like `cmSystemTools::ExpandLists` and
`cmSystemTools::ExpandListArgument`.
Motivation
----------
Since C++17 return value optimization is mandatory, so returning a
`std:vector<std::string>` from a function should be (at least) as fast as
passing a return vector reference to the function.
The new methods can replace `cmSystemTools::ExpandLists` and
`cmSystemTools::ExpandListArgument` in many cases, which leads to
shorter and simpler syntax.
E.g. the commonly used pattern
```
if (const char* value = X->GetProperty("A_KEY_STRING")) {
std::vector<std::string> valuesList;
cmSystemTools::ExpandListArgument(value, valuesList);
for (std::string const& i : valuesList) {
doSomething(i);
}
}
```
becomes
```
if (const char* value = X->GetProperty("A_KEY_STRING")) {
for (std::string const& i :
cmSystemTools::ExpandedListArgument(value)) {
doSomething(i);
}
}
```
On non-Windows platforms libuv assumes that file descriptors 0-2 are
always used for standard pipes and never for anything else. Otherwise,
libuv may re-use one of these descriptors and then fail an assertion
when closing it. Similarly, On Windows platforms our ConsoleBuf
implementation assumes that the standard handles are always open.
If CMake is run with any standard pipes closed, open them with
`/dev/null` or `NUL` to satisfy these assumptions.

This brings the functionality of `cmake -E create_symlink` and more to scripts.
The default behavior is to create hard links.
The `SYMBOLIC` argument can be used to create symlinks instead.
The `COPY_ON_ERROR` argument enables a fallback to copying the file in case the link fails.
The `RESULT <var>` retrieves the error message generated by the system.
It is set to "0" on success.
Fixes: #16926
The allows `-E create_symlink` to work on Windows. It utilizes
`uv_fs_symlink`. I am still unsure exactly which Windows platforms will
work without requiring Administrator privileges or needing a user/group
with the "Create Symbolic Links" User Rights. It does work with my
Windows 10 Pro with Developer Mode turned on. In the test suite check
that the symlink either worked or failed with a permissions error.
Use recent changes in cmSystemTools::FileExists to check that a symlink
is broken.
The use of `uv_fs_realpath` introduced by commit v3.11.0-rc1~445^2~1
(cmSystemTools: Implement GetRealPath on Windows, 2017-10-02) causes
`subst` drives to be expanded on Windows, breaking existing use cases.
Revert its use until an alternative implementation can be chosen.
Preserve the behavior introduced by commit v3.11.0-rc1~445^2
(cmTimestamp: For symlinks switch to timestamp of resolved path,
2017-10-02) by retaining use of `uv_fs_realpath` in a function of
a different name.
Fixes: #18033
Issue: #17206
* Change some functions to take `std::string` instead of
`const char*` in the following classes: `cmMakeFile`, `cmake`,
`cmCoreTryCompile`, `cmSystemTools`, `cmState`, `cmLocalGenerator`
and a few others.
* Greatly reduce using of `const char*` overloads for
`cmSystemTools::MakeDirectory` and `cmSystemTools::RelativePath`.
* Remove many redundant `c_str()` conversions throughout the code.
e6a80ccf Make use of std::chrono throughout every component
ff62b005 CTest: add safe conversion from cmDuration to integer types
695951bc CTest: introduce cmDuration

This commit continues the changes made in CTest to support std::chrono
by
applying it throughout every component where a duration was used.
No functional change intended.
Since libuv commit v1.14.1~7 (win: add uv__once_init() calls,
2017-08-30) the libuv initialization of the file translate mode may take
place even if we do not use a uv loop. This change was included in our
libuv update commit f4a26c748b (libuv 2018-01-19). Therefore use of
libuv even through `cmSystemTools::GetRealPath` in any executable may
trigger its file translate mode setting.
Factor out the logic added to `cmake.exe` by commit v3.9.0-rc4~10^2
(cmake: Fix default file translate mode when using libuv, 2017-06-13)
and re-use to initialize all executables.
