3.15.0:
New Features
============
Generators
----------
* The "Xcode" generator now supports per-target schemes. See the
"CMAKE_XCODE_GENERATE_SCHEME" variable and "XCODE_GENERATE_SCHEME"
target property.
* The "Green Hills MULTI" generator has been updated:
* It now supports the "add_custom_command()" and
"add_custom_target()" commands.
* It is now available on Linux.
Languages
---------
* Preliminary support for the "Swift" language was added to the
"Ninja" generator:
* Use the "SWIFTC" environment variable to specify a compiler.
* The "Swift_DEPENDENCIES_FILE" target property and
"Swift_DEPENDENCIES_FILE" source file property were added to
customize dependency files.
* The "Swift_MODULE_NAME" target property was added to customize
the Swift module name.
* The "Swift_DIAGNOSTICS_FILE" source property was added to
indicate where to write the serialised Swift diagnostics.
The Swift support is experimental, not considered stable, and may
change in future releases of CMake.
Compilers
---------
* The "Clang" compiler variant on Windows that targets the MSVC ABI
but has a GNU-like command line is now supported.
* Support for the Clang-based ARM compiler was added with compiler
id "ARMClang".
* Support was added for the IAR compiler architectures Renesas RX,
RL78, RH850 and Texas Instruments MSP430.
* Support was added for the IAR compilers built for Linux (IAR
BuildLx).
Command-Line
------------
* The "CMAKE_GENERATOR" environment variable was added to specify a
default generator to use when "cmake(1)" is run without a "-G"
option. Additionally, environment variables
"CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM", "CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET", and
"CMAKE_GENERATOR_INSTANCE" were created to configure the generator.
* The "cmake(1)" "--build" tool "--target" parameter gained support
for multiple targets, e.g. "cmake --build . --target Library1
Library2". It now also has a short form "-t" alias, e.g. "cmake
--build . -t Library1 Library2".
* The "cmake(1)" command gained a new "--install" option. This may
be used after building a project to run installation without using
the generated build system or the native build tool.
* The "cmake(1)" command learned a new CLI option "--loglevel".
* The "cmake(1)" "-E remove_directory" command-line tool learned to
support removing multiple directories.
* The "cmake(1)" "-E tar" tool has been improved:
* It now continues adding files to an archive even if some of the
files are not readable. This behavior is more consistent with the
classic "tar" tool.
* It now parses all flags, and if an invalid flag was provided, a
warning is issued.
* It now displays an error if no action flag was specified, along
with a list of possible actions: "t" (list), "c" (create) or "x"
(extract).
* It now supports extracting ("-x") or listing ("-t") only
specific files or directories.
* It now supports Zstandard compression with a "--zstd" option.
Zstandard was designed to give a compression ratio comparable to
that of the DEFLATE (zip) algorithm, but faster, especially for
decompression.
Commands
--------
* The "add_custom_command()" and "add_custom_target()" commands
gained a new "JOB_POOL" option that works with the "Ninja" generator
to set the pool variable on the build statement.
* The "add_library()" command "ALIAS" option learned to support
import libraries of the "UNKNOWN" type.
* The "cmake_parse_arguments()" command gained an additional
"_KEYWORDS_MISSING_VALUES" output variable to report keyword
arguments that were given by the caller with no values.
* The "execute_process()" command gained a "COMMAND_ECHO" option and
supporting "CMAKE_EXECUTE_PROCESS_COMMAND_ECHO" variable to enable
echoing of the command-line string before execution.
* The "file(INSTALL)" command learned a new argument,
"FOLLOW_SYMLINK_CHAIN", which can be used to recursively resolve and
install symlinks.
* "list()" learned new sub-commands: "PREPEND", "POP_FRONT" and
"POP_BACK".
* The "message()" command learned new types: "NOTICE", "VERBOSE",
"DEBUG" and "TRACE".
* The "string()" learned a new sub-command "REPEAT".
Variables
---------
* The "CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR" variable and corresponding
"CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR" target property learned to support
arguments to the emulator.
* The "CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_PREFER_CONFIG" variable was added to tell
"find_package()" calls to look for a package configuration file
first even if a find module is available.
* The "CMAKE_FRAMEWORK" variable was added to initialize the
"FRAMEWORK" property on all targets.
* The "CMAKE_VS_JUST_MY_CODE_DEBUGGING" variable and
"VS_JUST_MY_CODE_DEBUGGING" target property were added to enable the
Just My Code feature of the Visual Studio Debugger when compiling
with MSVC cl 19.05 and higher.
* The "CMAKE_MSVC_RUNTIME_LIBRARY" variable and
"MSVC_RUNTIME_LIBRARY" target property were introduced to select the
runtime library used by compilers targeting the MSVC ABI. See policy
"CMP0091".
* The "CMAKE_PROJECT_INCLUDE" and "CMAKE_PROJECT_INCLUDE_BEFORE"
variables were added to allow injection of custom code at the sites
of "project()" calls without knowing the project name a priori.
Properties
----------
* The "ADDITIONAL_CLEAN_FILES" target property and
"ADDITIONAL_CLEAN_FILES" directory property were added. They allow
to register additional files that should be removed during the clean
stage.
* The "PUBLIC_HEADER" and "PRIVATE_HEADER" properties may now be set
on Interface Libraries. The headers specified by those properties
can be installed using the "install(TARGETS)" command by passing the
"PUBLIC_HEADER" and "PRIVATE_HEADER" arguments respectively.
* The "VS_PACKAGE_REFERENCES" target property was added to tell
Visual Studio Generators to add references to "nuget" packages.
* The "VS_PROJECT_IMPORT" target property was added to allow managed
Visual Studio project files to import external ".props" files.
* The "VS_NO_SOLUTION_DEPLOY" target property was added to tell
Visual Studio Generators whether to deploy an artifact to the WinCE
or Windows Phone target device.
Modules
-------
* The "FindBoost" module was reworked to expose a more consistent
user experience between its “Config” and “Module” modes and with
other find modules in general.
* A new imported target "Boost::headers" is now defined (same as
"Boost::boost").
* New output variables "Boost_VERSION_MACRO",
"Boost_VERSION_MAJOR", "Boost_VERSION_MINOR",
"Boost_VERSION_PATCH", and "Boost_VERSION_COUNT" were added.
* The "QUIET" argument passed to "find_package()" is no longer
ignored in config mode. Note that the CMake package shipped with
Boost "1.70.0" ignores the "QUIET" argument passed to
"find_package()". This is fixed in the next Boost release.
* The input switch "Boost_DETAILED_FAILURE_MSG" was removed.
* "Boost_VERSION" now reports the version in "x.y.z" format in
module mode. See policy "CMP0093".
* The "FindCups" module now provides imported targets.
* The "FindEnvModules" module was added to use Lua- and TCL-based
environment modules in CTest Scripts.
* The "FindGLEW" module now provides an interface more consistent
with what upstream GLEW provides in its own CMake package files.
* The "FindPkgConfig" now populates "INTERFACE_LINK_OPTIONS"
property of imported targets with other (non-library) linker flags.
* The "FindPostgreSQL" module learned to find debug and release
variants separately.
* Modules "FindPython3", "FindPython2" and "FindPython" gained
additional lookup strategies and controls, and a new default. See
policy "CMP0094".
* Modules "FindPython", "FindPython2" and "FindPython3" gain a new
target (respectively "Python::Module", "Python2::Module" and
"Python3::Module") which can be used to develop Python modules.
* Modules "FindPython3", "FindPython2" and "FindPython" gain
capability to control how virtual environments are handled.
* The "UseSWIG" module learned to manage alternate library names by
passing "-interface " for "python" language or
"-dllimport " for "CSharp" language to the "SWIG"
compiler.
Generator Expressions
---------------------
* The "generator expressions" "C_COMPILER_ID", "CXX_COMPILER_ID",
"CUDA_COMPILER_ID", "Fortran_COMPILER_ID", "COMPILE_LANGUAGE",
"COMPILE_LANG_AND_ID", and "PLATFORM_ID" learned to support matching
one value from a comma-separated list.
CTest
-----
* The "ctest_submit()" command learned a new option: "BUILD_ID".
This can be used to store the ID assigned to this build by CDash to
a variable.
* The "ctest_update()" command learned to honor a new variable:
"CTEST_UPDATE_VERSION_OVERRIDE". This can be used to specify the
current version of your source tree rather than using the update
command to discover the current version that is checked out.
CPack
-----
* The "CPack IFW Generator" gained a new
"CPACK_IFW_PACKAGE_STYLE_SHEET" variable to customize the installer
stylesheet.
Deprecated and Removed Features
===============================
* The "cmake-server(7)" mode has been deprecated and will be removed
from a future version of CMake. Please port clients to use the
"cmake-file-api(7)" instead.
* The "ADDITIONAL_MAKE_CLEAN_FILES" directory property is now
deprecated. Use the "ADDITIONAL_CLEAN_FILES" directory property
instead.
* The variable "CMAKE_AUTOMOC_RELAXED_MODE" is considered
deprecated. Support still exists but will be removed in future
versions.
* The "export(PACKAGE)" command now does nothing unless enabled via
"CMAKE_EXPORT_PACKAGE_REGISTRY". See policy "CMP0090".
* The "Xcode" generator now requires at least Xcode 5.
* An explicit deprecation diagnostic was added for policy "CMP0066"
("CMP0065" and below were already deprecated). The "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
=============
* CMake learned how to compile C++14 with the IBM AIX XL compiler
and the SunPro compiler and to compile C++20 with the AppleClang
compiler.
* With MSVC-like compilers the value of "CMAKE__FLAGS" no
longer contains warning flags like "/W3" by default. See policy
"CMP0092".
* IBM Clang-based XL compilers that define "__ibmxl__" now use the
compiler id "XLClang" instead of "XL". See policy "CMP0089".
* The "file(REMOVE)" and "file(REMOVE_RECURSE)" commands were
changed to ignore empty arguments with a warning instead of treating
them as a relative path and removing the contents of the current
directory.
