Changes made since CMake 3.17 include the following.
|
|
|
|
New Features
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
Languages
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
* The ``CUDA`` language can now be compiled using Clang on non-Windows
|
|
platforms. Separable compilation is not yet supported on any platform.
|
|
|
|
Command-Line
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
* :manual:`cmake(1)` gained support for profiling of CMake scripts through
|
|
the parameters ``--profiling-output`` and ``--profiling-format``.
|
|
|
|
* :manual:`cmake(1)` gained a ``cat`` command line
|
|
option that can be used to concatenate files and print them
|
|
on standard output.
|
|
|
|
Commands
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`add_library` and :command:`add_executable` commands
|
|
learned to create :ref:`Alias Targets` referencing non-``GLOBAL``
|
|
:ref:`Imported Targets`.
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`cmake_language()` command was added for meta-operations on
|
|
scripted or built-in commands, starting with a mode to ``CALL`` other
|
|
commands, and ``EVAL CODE`` to inplace evaluate a CMake script.
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`execute_process` command gained the ``ECHO_OUTPUT_VARIABLE``
|
|
and ``ECHO_ERROR_VARIABLE`` options.
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`export` command now raise an error if used multiple times with
|
|
same ``FILE`` without ``APPEND``. See policy :policy:`CMP0103`.
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`file` command gained the ``ARCHIVE_CREATE`` and
|
|
``ARCHIVE_EXTRACT`` subcommands to expose the :manual:`cmake(1)` ``-E tar``
|
|
functionality to CMake scripting code.
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`file(CONFIGURE)` subcommand was created in order to replicate
|
|
the :command:`configure_file` functionality without resorting to a
|
|
pre-existing file on disk as input. The content is instead passed as a
|
|
string.
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`file(UPLOAD)` command gained ``TLS_VERIFY`` and ``TLS_CAINFO``
|
|
options to control server certificate verification.
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`find_program`, :command:`find_library`, :command:`find_path`
|
|
and :command:`find_file` commands gained a new ``REQUIRED`` option that will
|
|
stop processing with an error message if nothing is found.
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`get_property` command with ``SOURCE`` scope gained the
|
|
``DIRECTORY`` and ``TARGET_DIRECTORY`` options to get a property
|
|
from the provided directory scope.
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`get_source_file_property` command gained the ``DIRECTORY``
|
|
and ``TARGET_DIRECTORY`` options to get a property from the
|
|
provided directory scope.
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`list` operation ``SORT`` gained the ``NATURAL`` sort
|
|
option to sort using natural order (see ``strverscmp(3)`` manual).
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`set_property` command with the ``SOURCE`` scope gained the
|
|
``DIRECTORY`` and ``TARGET_DIRECTORY`` options to set properties
|
|
in the provided directory scopes.
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`set_source_files_properties` command gained the ``DIRECTORY``
|
|
and ``TARGET_DIRECTORY`` options to set properties in the provided
|
|
directory scopes.
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`string` command learned a new ``HEX`` sub-command, which
|
|
converts strings into their hexadecimal representation.
|
|
|
|
Variables
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
* A :variable:`CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES` variable was added to specify
|
|
CUDA output architectures. Users are encouraged to use this instead of
|
|
specifying options manually, as this approach is compiler-agnostic.
|
|
The variable is initialized automatically when
|
|
:variable:`CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER_ID <CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER_ID>` is ``NVIDIA``.
|
|
The variable is used to initialize the new :prop_tgt:`CUDA_ARCHITECTURES`
|
|
target property. See policy :policy:`CMP0104`.
|
|
|
|
* The :variable:`CMAKE_PCH_WARN_INVALID` variable was added to initialize the
|
|
:prop_tgt:`PCH_WARN_INVALID` target property to allow the removal of the
|
|
precompiled header invalid warning.
|
|
|
|
Properties
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
* The :prop_tgt:`CUDA_ARCHITECTURES` target property was added to specify
|
|
CUDA output architectures. Users are encouraged to use this instead of
|
|
specifying options manually, as this approach is compiler-agnostic.
|
|
The property is initialized by the new :variable:`CMAKE_CUDA_ARCHITECTURES`
|
|
variable. See policy :policy:`CMP0104`.
|
|
|
|
* The :prop_tgt:`Fortran_PREPROCESS` target property and
|
|
:prop_sf:`Fortran_PREPROCESS` source-file property were added to
|
|
control preprocessing of Fortran source files.
|
|
|
|
* The :prop_tgt:`FRAMEWORK_MULTI_CONFIG_POSTFIX_<CONFIG>` target property
|
|
and associated :variable:`CMAKE_FRAMEWORK_MULTI_CONFIG_POSTFIX_<CONFIG>`
|
|
variable were created to allow adding a postfix to the name of a
|
|
framework file name when using a multi-config generator.
|
|
|
|
* The :prop_sf:`OBJECT_OUTPUTS` source file property now supports
|
|
:manual:`generator expressions <cmake-generator-expressions(7)>`.
|
|
|
|
* The :prop_tgt:`PCH_WARN_INVALID` target property was added to allow the
|
|
removal of the precompiled header invalid warning.
|
|
|
|
* The :prop_tgt:`UNITY_BUILD_MODE` target property was added to tell
|
|
generators which algorithm to use for grouping included source
|
|
files.
|
|
|
|
* The :prop_tgt:`VS_SOURCE_SETTINGS_<tool>` target property was added
|
|
to tell :ref:`Visual Studio Generators` for VS 2010 and above to add
|
|
metadata to non-built source files using ``<tool>``.
|
|
|
|
* The :prop_sf:`VS_SETTINGS` source file property was added to tell
|
|
:ref:`Visual Studio Generators` for VS 2010 and above to add
|
|
metadata to a non-built source file.
|
|
|
|
* The :prop_tgt:`VS_PLATFORM_TOOLSET` target property was added to tell
|
|
:ref:`Visual Studio Generators` for VS 2010 and above to override
|
|
the platform toolset.
|
|
|
|
* The :prop_tgt:`VS_SOLUTION_DEPLOY` target property was added to tell
|
|
:ref:`Visual Studio Generators` for VS 2010 and above to mark a
|
|
target for deployment even when not building for Windows Phone/Store/CE.
|
|
|
|
Modules
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`CheckLinkerFlag` module has been added to provide a
|
|
facility to check validity of link flags.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`ExternalProject` module :command:`ExternalProject_Add` command
|
|
gained a new ``GIT_REMOTE_UPDATE_STRATEGY`` keyword. This can be used to
|
|
specify how failed rebase operations during a git update should be handled.
|
|
The ``CMAKE_EP_GIT_REMOTE_UPDATE_STRATEGY`` variable was also added as a
|
|
global default and is honored by both the :module:`ExternalProject` and
|
|
:module:`FetchContent` modules.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`FetchContent` module :command:`FetchContent_Declare` command
|
|
now supports a ``SOURCE_SUBDIR`` option. It can be used to direct
|
|
:command:`FetchContent_MakeAvailable` to look in a different location
|
|
for the ``CMakeLists.txt`` file.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`FindBLAS` module now provides an imported target.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`FindCUDAToolkit` module:
|
|
|
|
* gained the variable
|
|
``CUDAToolkit_LIBRARY_ROOT``, which is the directory containing the
|
|
``nvvm`` directory and ``version.txt``.
|
|
|
|
* uses toolkit and library root found during ``CUDA`` compiler detection.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`FindLAPACK` module now provides an imported target.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`FindPython3`, :module:`FindPython2` and :module:`FindPython`
|
|
modules:
|
|
|
|
* gained the possibility to create per-artifact cache variables for
|
|
interactive editing in :manual:`cmake-gui(1)` and :manual:`ccmake(1)`.
|
|
|
|
* gained sub-components ``Development.Module`` and
|
|
``Development.Embed`` under the ``Development`` component.
|
|
|
|
* gained the capability to specify which Python implementations to find,
|
|
including ``IronPython`` and ``PyPy``.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`FindRuby` module input and output variables were all renamed
|
|
from ``RUBY_`` to ``Ruby_`` for consistency with other find modules.
|
|
Input variables of the old case will be honored if provided, and output
|
|
variables of the old case are always provided.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`FindSWIG` module now accepts target languages as ``COMPONENTS``
|
|
and ``OPTIONAL_COMPONENTS`` arguments to ``find_package``.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`GoogleTest` module :command:`gtest_discover_tests` command:
|
|
|
|
* gained a new ``DISCOVERY_MODE`` option to control when the test
|
|
discovery step is run. It offers a new ``PRE_TEST`` setting to
|
|
run the discovery at test time instead of build time. A new
|
|
``CMAKE_GTEST_DISCOVER_TESTS_DISCOVERY_MODE`` variable can be used
|
|
to change the default globally.
|
|
|
|
* gained a new optional parameter ``XML_OUTPUT_DIR``. When set the
|
|
JUnit XML test results are stored in that directory.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`FindLibXslt` module now provides imported targets.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`UseSWIG` module now supports Fortran as a target language if

|
|
|
|
Generator Expressions
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
* The :genex:`$<DEVICE_LINK:...>` and :genex:`$<HOST_LINK:...>`
|
|
generator expressions were added to manage device and host link steps.
|
|
|
|
* The :genex:`$<LINK_LANGUAGE:...>` and :genex:`$<LINK_LANG_AND_ID:...>`
|
|
generator expressions were added.
|
|
|
|
CTest
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
* :manual:`ctest(1)` gained a new :variable:`CTEST_RESOURCE_SPEC_FILE`
|
|
variable, which can be used to specify a
|
|
:ref:`resource specification file <ctest-resource-specification-file>`.
|
|
|
|
* :manual:`ctest(1)` gained a ``--stop-on-failure`` option,
|
|
which can be used to stop running the tests once one has failed.
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`ctest_test` command gained a ``STOP_ON_FAILURE`` option
|
|
which can be used to stop running the tests once one has failed.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`CTestCoverageCollectGCOV` module
|
|
:command:`ctest_coverage_collect_gcov` command gained a
|
|
``TARBALL_COMPRESSION`` option to control compression of the
|
|
tarball of collected results.
|
|
|
|
CPack
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
* The :cpack_gen:`CPack Archive Generator`'s ``TXZ`` format learned the
|
|
:variable:`CPACK_ARCHIVE_THREADS` variable to enable parallel compression.
|
|
Requires support in the ``liblzma`` used by CMake.
|
|
|
|
* The :cpack_gen:`CPack NSIS Generator` gained a new variable
|
|
:variable:`CPACK_NSIS_MANIFEST_DPI_AWARE` to declare that the
|
|
installer is DPI-aware.
|
|
|
|
* The :cpack_gen:`CPack RPM Generator` gained
|
|
:variable:`CPACK_RPM_PRE_TRANS_SCRIPT_FILE` and
|
|
:variable:`CPACK_RPM_POST_TRANS_SCRIPT_FILE`
|
|
variables to specify pre- and post-transaction scripts.
|
|
|
|
Other
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
* :manual:`cmake-gui(1)` now populates its generator selection
|
|
widget default value from the :envvar:`CMAKE_GENERATOR` environment
|
|
variable. Additionally, environment variables
|
|
:envvar:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM` and :envvar:`CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET`
|
|
are used to populate their respective widget defaults.
|
|
|
|
* :manual:`ccmake(1)` learned to read a :envvar:`CCMAKE_COLORS`
|
|
environment variable to customize colors.
|
|
|
|
* The :manual:`Compile Features <cmake-compile-features(7)>` functionality
|
|
is now aware of the availability of C11 features in MSVC 19.27 and 19.28,
|
|
including support for the ``c_restrict``, ``c_static_assert`` features and
|
|
the ``-std:c11`` flag.
|
|
|
|
Deprecated and Removed Features
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`Documentation` module has been deprecated via
|
|
:policy:`CMP0106`. This module was essentially VTK code that CMake should
|
|
not be shipping anymore.
|
|
|
|
* An explicit deprecation diagnostic was added for policy ``CMP0070``
|
|
and policy ``CMP0071`` (``CMP0069`` and below were already deprecated).
|
|
The :manual:`cmake-policies(7)` manual explains that the OLD behaviors
|
|
of all policies are deprecated and that projects should port to the
|
|
NEW behaviors.
|
|
|
|
Other Changes
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
* On Windows, the :generator:`Ninja` and :generator:`Ninja Multi-Config`
|
|
generators, when a compiler is not explicitly specified, now select
|
|
the first compiler (of any name) found in directories listed by the
|
|
``PATH`` environment variable.
|
|
|
|
* The :prop_tgt:`LINK_OPTIONS` and :prop_tgt:`INTERFACE_LINK_OPTIONS` target
|
|
properties are now used for the device link step.
|
|
See policy :policy:`CMP0105`.
|
|
|
|
* Creation of an ``ALIAS`` target overwriting an existing target now raises an
|
|
error. See policy :policy:`CMP0107`.
|
|
|
|
* Linking a target to itself through an alias now raises an error.
|
|
See policy :policy:`CMP0108`.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`FindPackageHandleStandardArgs` module option ``REQUIRED_VARS``
|
|
is now optional if ``HANDLE_COMPONENTS`` is specified.
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`source_group` command now also recognizes forward slashes
|
|
as subgroup delimiters, not just backslashes.
|
|
|
|
* :manual:`ctest(1)` now logs environment variables that it sets for each test,
|
|
either due to the :prop_test:`ENVIRONMENT` property or the
|
|
:ref:`resource allocation <ctest-resource-allocation>` feature, and submits
|
|
this log to CDash. It does not log environment variables that were set
|
|
outside of CTest.
|
|
|
|
* When building CMake itself from source and not using a system-provided
|
|
libcurl, HTTP/2 support is now enabled for commands supporting
|
|
network communication via ``http(s)``, such as :command:`file(DOWNLOAD)`,
|
|
:command:`file(UPLOAD)`, and :command:`ctest_submit`.
|
|
The precompiled binaries provided on ``cmake.org`` now support HTTP/2.
|
|
|
|
* The :manual:`cmake-file-api(7)` "codemodel" version 2 ``version`` field has
|
|
been updated to 2.1.
|
|
|
|
* The :manual:`cmake-file-api(7)` "codemodel" version 2 "target" object gained
|
|
a new ``precompileHeaders`` field in the ``compileGroups`` objects.
|
|
|
|
Updates
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
Changes made since CMake 3.18.0 include the following.
|
|
|
|
3.18.1
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
* The :generator:`Xcode` generator, when :variable:`CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES`
|
|
is not defined, now selects ``$(NATIVE_ARCH_ACTUAL)`` as the default
|
|
architecture (the Xcode ``ARCHS`` setting). This is needed for Xcode 12
|
|
to select the host's architecture, which older versions of Xcode did
|
|
by default.
|
|
|
|
* In CMake 3.18.0 the :command:`add_test` command learned to support
|
|
special characters in test names. This was accidentally left out of
|
|
its release notes. Unfortunately the fix breaks existing projects
|
|
that were using manual quoting or escaping to work around the prior
|
|
limitation. This fix has been reverted in 3.18.1, but may be
|
|
re-introduced in future versions of CMake with a policy for compatibility.
|
|
|
|
3.18.2
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
* The default value of :variable:`CMAKE_AUTOMOC_PATH_PREFIX` was changed to
|
|
``OFF`` because this feature can break existing projects that have
|
|
identically named header files in different include directories.
|
|
This restores compatibility with behavior of CMake 3.15 and below.
|
|
The default was also changed to ``OFF`` in 3.16.9 and 3.17.5.
|
|
|
|
* The :manual:`Compile Features <cmake-compile-features(7)>` functionality
|
|
was updated for MSVC 19.27 as mentioned above (``c_restrict``).
|
|
|
|
3.18.3
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
* The :manual:`Compile Features <cmake-compile-features(7)>` functionality
|
|
was updated for MSVC 19.28 as mentioned above (``c_static_assert``).
|
