Do not attach a custom command to a target if it is already attached to one of
the target's dependencies. The command's output will be available by the time
the target needs it because the dependency containing the command will have
already been built.
This may break existing projects that do not properly mark non-created
outputs with the `SYMBOLIC` property. Previously a chain of two custom
commands whose intermediate dependency is not created would put both
commands in a dependent project's Makefile even if the first command is
also in its dependency's Makefile. The first command would run twice
but the build would work. Now the second command needs an explicit
`SYMBOLIC` mark on its input to tell CMake that it is not expected to
exist. To maintain compatibility with projects that left out the mark,
add a policy activating the behavior.
#pragma once is a widely supported compiler pragma, even though it is
not part of the C++ standard. Many of the issues keeping #pragma once
from being standardized (distributed filesystems, build farms, hard
links, etc.) do not apply to CMake - it is easy to build CMake on a
single machine. CMake also does not install any header files which can
be consumed by other projects (though cmCPluginAPI.h has been
deliberately omitted from this conversion in case anyone is still using
it.) Finally, #pragma once has been required to build CMake since at
least August 2017 (7f29bbe6 enabled server mode unconditionally, which
had been using #pragma once since September 2016 (b13d3e0d)). The fact
that we now require C++11 filters out old compilers, and it is unlikely
that there is a compiler which supports C++11 but does not support
#pragma once.
Code paths that write makefile target paths use a combination of
`cmSystemTools::ConvertToOutputPath` and `cmMakeSafe`. Some were
missing the latter. Wrap these two steps up into a dedicated
`ConvertToMakefilePath` method provided on both the local and global
generators.
In the "Unix Makefiles" generator, the `ADDTIONAL_CLEAN_FILES` directory
property was evaluated on a per target basis. This had two drawbacks:
- per directory clean files were repeated in every target clean script
- per directory clean files weren't removed in directories without targets
(issue #8164)
This patch moves the `ADDTIONAL_CLEAN_FILES` directory property processing
from the target to the directory level clean target.
Fixes: #8164 "ADDITIONAL_CLEAN_FILES directory property not respected if no
target present in directory"
By using a `std::set<std::string>` container instead of a
`std::vector<std::string>` container, the clean files list becomes sorted and
unique. The clean target in Makefiles beomes nicer and better readable this
way. Also double clean entries won't appear anymore.
In `cmDepends` use
`typedef std::map<std::string, std::vector<std::string>> DependencyMap`
instead of defining a
`class DependencyVector : public std::vector<std::string>`
and using it in `std::map<std::string, DependencyVector>`.
Since `std::map<std::string, std::vector<std::string>>` is used in various
other places, we now reuse all of it's auto generated methods. This doesn't
happen when we use `DependencyVector` in a `std::map`, because it is a
different class than `std::vector<std::string>`.
Suppress some cases in `Source/cmGeneratorExpressionNode.cxx` and
`Source/cmUVHandlePtr.h` where a few older compilers require a
user-defined default constructor (with `{}`).
* 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.
We now require C++11 support including `override`. Drop use of
the old compatibility macro. Convert references as follows:
git grep -l CM_OVERRIDE -- '*.h' '*.hxx' '*.cxx' |
xargs sed -i 's/CM_OVERRIDE/override/g'
This makes it easier to remove directory-specific state from
cmOutputConverter where it doesn't belong. Of course, this just
relocates the problem to the makefiles generator for now, but that's
better than affecting the core.
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.
The existing method uses RelativeRoot NONE and FULL values. In
principle, those should be segregated interfaces. Mixing
NONE and FULL into the RelativeRoot enum is a case of

Run the `Utilities/Scripts/clang-format.bash` script to update
all our C++ code to a new style defined by `.clang-format`.
Use `clang-format` version 3.8.
