Add a `--debug-find-pkg=` option to debug find calls for specific
packages.
Add a `--debug-find-var=` option to debug find calls for specific
return variables.
Fixes: #21880
This aligns `find_library` with the documentation that states it
can be called from script mode. This is done by infering the
proper prefix and suffix values when `find_library` is called
when the `CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY*` are not set. This also means that
`find_library` won't produce obscure error messages about unset
definitions.
Fixes: #22027
Refactoring in commit 6b85166920 (ENH: Refactor find_library search
logic, 2008-09-22, v2.8.0~1665) dropped a call to `FileExists` on the
path under the assumption that the presence of a file in a directory
listing means it exists. However, dropping that also dropped a check
that verifies the file is readable. Restore the `FileExists` call to
ensure that we only find readable libraries.
In the same spirit as the REQUIRED keyword on find_package, this will
stop cmake execution with an error on a failed find_program, find_file,
find_path or find_library.
Teach the find_package, find_library, find_program, find_path, and
find_file commands to print debug log messages when enabled by the
`--debug-find` command-line option or `CMAKE_FIND_DEBUG_MODE` variable.
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)`
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.
Detect x32-abi through CMakeCompilerABI infrastruture and use this
information at runtime to determine the correct library paths with
`FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIBX32_PATHS`.
Fixes: #15994
Add a new `CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_CUSTOM_LIB_SUFFIX` variable to allow use
of a custom suffix on `lib` directory names. This is a more general
option than that added by commit v3.7.0-rc1~504^2 (Teach find_library
and find_package to search lib32 paths, 2016-06-10). It allows the find
path to be more deterministic on custom setups.
See discussion in #10287 and #15994.
The `FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIB<arch>_PATHS` global properties ask
`find_library` to look in `lib<arch>` directories automatically before
corresponding `lib` directories. However, if `lib<arch>` is just a
symlink to `lib` (or vice-versa) then we should skip adding the
`lib<arch>` path. Such symlinks typically only exist to satisfy
software that expects the `lib<arch>` path to be available.

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.
Add a ``FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIB32_PATHS`` global property analogous to the
``FIND_LIBRARY_USE_LIB64_PATHS`` property. This helps find commands on
multilib systems that use ``lib32`` directories and either do not have
``lib`` symlinks or point ``lib`` to ``lib64``.
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.
