Set the MinTypeNameLength option to an impossibly high value in order
to limit the diagnostics to iterators. Leave new expressions and cast
expressions for later.
Extend the change from commit 689be6235e (Generator: support
per-language link library flag, 2019-08-08) to cover more link library
command-line flag components. Allow compilers for different languages
to use different values for these linking-related variables within the
same build.
Closes: #19631
This patch is generated by a python script that uses regular expressions to
search for string concatenation patterns of the kind
```
std::string str = <ARG0>;
str += <ARG1>;
str += <ARG2>;
...
```
and replaces them with a single `cmStrCat` call
```
std::string str = cmStrCat(<ARG0>, <ARG1>, <ARG2>, ...);
```
If any `<ARGX>` is itself a concatenated string of the kind
```
a + b + c + ...;
```
then `<ARGX>` is split into multiple arguments for the `cmStrCat` call.
If there's a sequence of literals in the `<ARGX>`, then all literals in the
sequence are concatenated and merged into a single literal argument for
the `cmStrCat` call.
Single character strings are converted to single char arguments for
the `cmStrCat` call.
`std::to_string(...)` wrappings are removed from `cmStrCat` arguments,
because it supports numeric types as well as string types.
`arg.substr(x)` arguments to `cmStrCat` are replaced with
`cm::string_view(arg).substr(x)`
This replaces invocations of
- `cmSystemTools::IsInternallyOn` with `cmIsInternallyOn`
- `cmSystemTools::IsNOTFOUND` with `cmIsNOTFOUND`
- `cmSystemTools::IsOn` with `cmIsOn`
- `cmSystemTools::IsOff` with `cmIsOff`
This enables the use of MSVC and Swift on Windows in a single project.
MSVC uses no flag to indicate linked libraries while Swift uses `-l`.
Add support for a language specific link library flag which takes
precedence over the global `CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARY_FLAG` which preserves
compatibility with earlier releases.
Enables the clang-tidy test performance-inefficient-string-concatenation
and replaces all inefficient string concatenations with `cmStrCat`.
Closes: #19555
The `CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARY_FILE_FLAG` variable is meant for linkers that
want library file paths to be preceded by a flag. This is used only
for OpenWatcom to add the `library` argument before library file paths.
Refactor the approach to treat `CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARY_FILE_FLAG` as a
command-line string fragment to add just before the library file path.
This has two advantages:
* `CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARY_FILE_FLAG` now works like `CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARY_FLAG`.
* `CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARY_FILE_FLAG` can now be an attached flag whose value
is the library file path.
Technically this is a change in behavior, but this setting was created
for internal use and should be rarely used outside of CMake itself.
Fixes: #19541
On AIX, plugins meant to be loaded into executables via `dlopen` must be
linked with access to a list of symbols exported from the executable in
order to use them (when not using runtime linking). The AIX linker
supports specifying this list as an "import file" passed on the command
line either via the `-bI:...` option or (with a leading `#! .` line) as
a normal input file like any other library file.
The linker import file plays the same role on AIX as import libraries do
on Windows. Teach CMake to enable its import library abstraction on AIX
for executables with the `ENABLE_EXPORTS` target property set. Teach
our internal `ExportImportList` script to optionally generate a leading
`#! .` line at the top of the generated export/import list. Update our
rule for linking an executable with exports to generate a public-facing
"import library" implemented as an AIX linker import file.
With this approach, our existing infrastructure for handling import
libraries on Windows will now work for AIX linker import files too:
* Plugins that link to their executable's symbols will be automatically
linked using the import file on the command line.
* The executable's import file will be (optionally) installed and
exported for use in linking externally-built plugins.
This will allow executables and their plugins to build even if we later
turn off runtime linking.
Issue: #19163
This makes binaries independent of the build directory by not embedding
the build directory via RPATH. The tests are partially based on the
existing RuntimePath test, but with the check moved into a POST_BUILD
command such that it can be skipped when the platform lacks support.
Fixes: #18413
These new capabilities enable to manage link directories
Two new properties:
* target properties: LINK_DIRECTORIES and INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES
One new command
* target_link_directories(): to populate target properties

Run the `clang-format.bash` script to update all our C and C++ code to a
new style defined by `.clang-format`. Use `clang-format` version 6.0.
* If you reached this commit for a line in `git blame`, re-run the blame
operation starting at the parent of this commit to see older history
for the content.
* See the parent commit for instructions to rebase a change across this
style transition commit.
Note: This only allows `OBJECT` libraries to be on the right-hand side
of `target_link_libraries` but still does not link its object-files to
the target on the left-hand side.
Issue: #14778
* 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.
Some libraries uses the non-conventional SONAME scheme like
`libssl.so.1.1` or `libboost_system.so.1.64.0`, but CMake didn't count on
such versioned libraries. This commit modify regular expressions to match
relaxed format of shared library name for determining various linker options,
especially `RPATH`.
Note that support for one component has been available since v2.8.12.
Fixes: #15938
Add `CMAKE_SYSROOT_COMPILE` and `CMAKE_SYSROOT_LINK` variables to as
operation-specific alternatives to `CMAKE_SYSROOT`. This will be useful
for Android NDKs that compile and link with different sysroot values
(e.g. `r14` with unified headers).

Add an `IMPORTED_LIBNAME[_<CONFIG>]` target property to specify a library
name to be placed on the link line in place of an interface library
since it has no library file of its own. Restrict use of the property
to imported `INTERFACE` libraries.
This will be particularly useful for find modules that need to provide
imported libraries from system SDKs where the full path to the library
file is not known. Now such find modules will be able to provide an
imported interface library and set `IMPORTED_LIBNAME` to refer to the
SDK library by name.
Issue: #15267
Users may need to add custom `RPATH` entries to be able to run binaries
from their build tree without setting `LD_LIBRARY_PATH`. Provide a way
to do this that does not affect the install-tree `RPATH`.
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.
