Changes made since CMake 3.21 include the following.
|
|
|
|
New Features
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
Commands
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`cmake_host_system_information` command can now query
|
|
`OS identification variables`_ from the :file:`/etc/os-release` file.
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`string(TIMESTAMP)` command now supports the ``%V``
|
|
specifier for ISO 8601 week numbers.
|
|
|
|
.. _`OS identification variables`: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/os-release.html
|
|
|
|
Variables
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
* The :envvar:`CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE` environment variable was added to
|
|
provide a default value for the :variable:`CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE` variable.
|
|
|
|
* The :envvar:`CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES` environment variable was added to
|
|
provide a default value for the :variable:`CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES`
|
|
variable.
|
|
|
|
* The :envvar:`CMAKE_INSTALL_MODE` environment variable was added to
|
|
tell :command:`install` rules (implemented by :command:`file(INSTALL)`)
|
|
to install symbolic links instead of copying of files.
|
|
|
|
* The :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_LINK_WHAT_YOU_USE_FLAG` and
|
|
:variable:`CMAKE_LINK_WHAT_YOU_USE_CHECK` variables were added to
|
|
control the linker flag and check used by the
|
|
:prop_tgt:`LINK_WHAT_YOU_USE` target property.
|
|
|
|
* The :variable:`CMAKE_REQUIRE_FIND_PACKAGE_<PackageName>` variable
|
|
was added to turn a non-REQUIRED :command:`find_package` call into
|
|
a REQUIRED one.
|
|
|
|
Properties
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
* The :prop_tgt:`<LANG>_EXTENSIONS` target property is now initialized to
|
|
:variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_EXTENSIONS_DEFAULT`, detected from the compiler.
|
|
See :policy:`CMP0128`.
|
|
|
|
* The :prop_sf:`VS_SETTINGS` source file property is now supported for
|
|
all source file types. Previously it worked only for non-built sources.
|
|
|
|
Modules
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`CMakeDependentOption` module :command:`cmake_dependent_option`
|
|
macro now supports full :ref:`Condition Syntax`.
|
|
See policy :policy:`CMP0127`.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`FetchContent` module now passes through the
|
|
:variable:`CMAKE_TLS_VERIFY`, :variable:`CMAKE_TLS_CAINFO`,
|
|
:variable:`CMAKE_NETRC` and :variable:`CMAKE_NETRC_FILE` variables (when
|
|
defined) to the underlying :module:`ExternalProject` sub-build.
|
|
Previously, those variables were silently ignored by :module:`FetchContent`.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`FindBLAS` and :module:`FindLAPACK` modules gained
|
|
a ``BLA_SIZEOF_INTEGER`` option to find a BLAS/LAPACK whose ABI
|
|
uses a specific integer size.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`FindJasper` module now provides an imported target.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`FindMatlab` module now provides imported targets.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`FindPkgConfig` module gained a :variable:`PKG_CONFIG_ARGN`
|
|
variable to specify arguments to ``pkg-config`` calls.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`GoogleTest` module :command:`gtest_discover_tests`
|
|
function gained a ``TEST_FILTER`` option to filter tests using
|
|
``--gtest_filter`` during test discovery.
|
|
|
|
* The :module:`UseSWIG` module, for :ref:`Visual Studio Generators`,
|
|
can now use the ``swig`` tool to generate implicit dependencies.
|
|
|
|
CTest
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
* :manual:`ctest(1)` learned to recognize labels attached to a test at run time.
|
|
Previously it was only possible to attach labels to tests at configure time
|
|
by using the :prop_test:`LABELS` test property.
|
|
See :ref:`Additional Test Measurements` for more information.
|
|
|
|
* :manual:`ctest(1)` learned to be able to modify the environment for a test
|
|
through the :prop_test:`ENVIRONMENT_MODIFICATION` property. This is allows
|
|
for updates to environment variables based on the environment present at
|
|
test time.
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`ctest_memcheck` command now also generates a
|
|
:file:`DynamicAnalysis-Test.xml` file which may be used to submit test
|
|
results to CDash.
|
|
|
|
CPack
|
|
-----
|
|
|
|
* The :cpack_gen:`CPack DEB Generator` gained the
|
|
option to set :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_COMPRESSION_TYPE` to ``zstd``,
|
|
which enables Zstandard compression for deb packages.
|
|
|
|
* The :cpack_gen:`CPack NSIS Generator` gained a new
|
|
:variable:`CPACK_NSIS_IGNORE_LICENSE_PAGE` variable to suppress
|
|
the license page in the installer.
|
|
|
|
* The :cpack_gen:`CPack RPM Generator` gained the
|
|
:variable:`CPACK_RPM_REQUIRES_EXCLUDE_FROM` option to avoid scanning
|
|
specific paths for dependencies.
|
|
|
|
Deprecated and Removed Features
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
* The :generator:`Visual Studio 10 2010` generator is now deprecated
|
|
and will be removed in a future version of CMake.
|
|
|
|
Other Changes
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
* The :manual:`Compile Features <cmake-compile-features(7)>` functionality now
|
|
correctly disables or enables compiler extensions when no standard level is
|
|
specified and avoids unnecessarily adding language standard flags if the
|
|
requested settings match the compiler's defaults. See :policy:`CMP0128`.
|
|
|
|
* The :manual:`Compile Features <cmake-compile-features(7)>` functionality
|
|
now ignores features for languages that are not enabled.
|
|
|
|
* The :ref:`Ninja Generators` now implement the ``edit_cache`` target
|
|
using :manual:`ccmake(1)` if available.
|
|
|
|
* The :generator:`Ninja` and :generator:`NMake Makefiles` generators
|
|
now use the MSVC ``-external:I`` flag for system includes.
|
|
This became available as of VS 16.10 (toolchain version 14.29.30037).
|
|
|
|
* The :cpack_gen:`CPack NSIS Generator` now requires NSIS 3.03 or later.
|
|
|
|
Updates
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
Changes made since CMake 3.22.0 include the following.
|
|
|
|
3.22.1
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
* This version made no changes to documented features or interfaces.
|
|
Some implementation updates were made to support ecosystem changes
|
|
and/or fix regressions.
|
|
|
|
3.22.2
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
* The ``OLD`` behavior of :policy:`CMP0128` was fixed to add flags even when
|
|
the specified standard matches the compiler default.
|
|
|
|
3.22.3
|
|
------
|
|
|
|
* The :command:`while` command again ignores errors in condition evaluation
|
|
as CMake 3.21 and below did. This bug was fixed in 3.22.0, but exposed
|
|
errors in existing projects. The fix has been reverted to restore
|
|
compatibility. The fix may be restored in a future version of CMake
|
|
via a policy.
|
|
|
|
3.22.4, 3.22.5, 3.22.6
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
* These versions made no changes to documented features or interfaces.
|
|
Some implementation updates were made to support ecosystem changes
|
|
and/or fix regressions.
