CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS now notes that space-delimited string, not
;-list is required, which could be surprising compared to similar
options that do use ;-list
In commit cb28d9af1f (UseJava: Move helper scripts to subdirectory,
2020-11-12) we removed modules that were not meant to be documented
publicly. In order to keep links from older versions on `cmake.org` to
the "latest" documentation working for those modules, add placeholder
documents describing the change.
Add entries in Modules and Modules/Platform to support
Objective-C++ compiler determination and identification.
Add Modules to check Objective-C++ compiler flags, source
compilations, program checks, etc...
Use OBJCXX as the designator of the language, eg:
project(foo OBJCXX)
Add various tests for Objective-C++ language features. Add
tests to preserve C++ handling of .M and .mm files when
Objective-C++ is not a configured language.

The `FindOctave` module added by commit 170bcb6fdc (FindOctave: Add
module to find GNU octave, 2018-11-17, v3.14.0-rc1~283^2) has a few
problems in its implementation that need to be worked out before the
module can be included in a CMake release. These were missed during
review. Remove the module for now. It can be restored later with a
fresh review.
Issue: #18991
CPack generator names were not used consistently
throughout the documentation, resulting in ambiguity
about what the correct name was for use with the
`cpack -G` option. With the changes in this commit, the
cpack-generators(7) page of the manual now shows the
correct names and other help pages no longer use
inconsistent or incorrect names.
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.
Create a CPack generator that uses `nuget.exe` to create packages:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/nuget/what-is-nuget
NuGet packages could be easily produced from a `*.nuspec` file (running
`nuget pack` in the directory w/ the spec file). The spec filename does
not affect the result `*.nupkg` name -- only `id` and `version` elements
of the spec are used (by NuGet).
Some implementation details:
* Minimize C++ code -- use CMake script do to the job. It just let the
base class (`cmCPackGenerator`) to preinstall everything to a temp
directory, render the spec file and run `nuget pack` in it, harvesting
`*.nupkg` files...;
* Ignore package name (and use default paths) prepared by the base class
(only `CPACK_TEMPORARY_DIRECTORY` is important) -- final package
filename is a responsibility of NuGet, so after generation just scan the
temp directory for the result `*.nupkg` file(s) and update
`packageFileNames` data-member of the generator;
* The generator supports _all-in-one_ (default), _one-group-per-package_
and _one-component-per-package_ modes.
Adds an option CPACK_ENABLE_FREEBSD_PKG to allow CPack to look
for FreeBSD's libpkg / pkg(8). If this is set and the libpkg
headers and library are found (which they will be, by default,
on any FreeBSD system), then add a FreeBSD pkg(8) generator.
The FreeBSD package tool pkg(8) uses tar.xz files (.txz) with two
metadata files embedded (+MANIFEST and +COMPACT_MANIFEST).
This introduces a bunch of FreeBSD-specific CPACK_FREEBSD_PACKAGE_*
variables for filling in the metadata; the Debian generator does
something similar. Documentation for the CPack CMake-script is styled
after the Debian generator.
Implementation notes:
- Checks for libpkg -- the underlying implementation for pkg(8) --
and includes FreeBSD package-generation if building CMake on
a UNIX host. Since libpkg can be used on BSDs, Linux and OSX,
this potentially adds one more packaging format. In practice,
this will only happen on FreeBSD and DragonflyBSD.
- Copy-paste from cmCPackArchiveGenerator to special-case
the metadata generation and to run around the internal
archive generation: use libpkg instead.
- Generating the metadata files is a little contrived.
- Most of the validation logic for package settings is in
CPackFreeBSD.cmake, as well as the code that tries to re-use
packaging settings that may already be set up for Debian.
- libpkg has its own notion of output filename, so we have
another contrived bit of code that munges the output file
list so that CPack can find the output.
- Stick with C++98.
Extract the `gtest_add_tests` macro from `FindGTest` into a separate
module. GTest or GoogleTest can be used by a project in a several
different ways, including installed libraries in the system, from an
ExternalProject, or adding the GTest source directory as a sub directory
of the project. As not all of these uses are supported by the FindGTest
module the useful `gtest_add_tests` macro is separated to easily enable
reuse.
Issue: #14151
Add a module to manage the data needed for the project tests. It will
move the test data to the build directory and transfer necessary data to
an Android device if that is enabled.
Also detect the library version number. Provide results as variables
and as an imported target, LTTng::UST.
