If you run `cmake --build . -- distclean` all generated files will
now be gone! This adds the files that have been introduced in later
improvements to the build system.
Clang aims to be compatible with GCC when it comes to command-line
parameters. Where we enable functionality based on the presence of
a GCC-compiler, we can use the same functionality with Clang.
This patch introduces a new variable CXX_COMPAT_GCC which is true if
the compiler handles the same options as GCC, and this variable is
subsequently used in tests instead of CMAKE_COMPILER_IS_GNUCXX (which
remains if we need to test if we really have GCC, e.g. for version)
The attic are the place where files which we don't use right now, but
which we acknowledge some amount of valuable time has been spent on and
which may be usable some day in the future, so we don't have the
conscience to right out delete them.
These files are not expected to compile, and certainly not to run and
produce sensible results, anymore. However, with some work they can
possibly be converted into proper unit tests or examples.
The prerequisites are now declared in their own file, so it can be
included by the main system. There is thus only one canonical place
where the list of prerequisites exist.
Further classify source files into languages
Needed, for instance, to properly assign derived properties to a subset
of the sources.
This feature is used in the PCH module (UsePrecompHeaders.cmake)
Other modules (notably the precompiled header one) may set properties
directly on the source file; we need to separate them into categories
for which language they belong to.
The version declared for the build system (in dune.module) is checked
against what is in the source (e.g. opm/core/version.h) and if these
don't match, then issue an author warning.
This will help us keep the two version numbers in sync., since it
becomes very obvious when we don't. The benefit for this is to not have
the build system start mucking with the code just to dump some static
information in there.
Files that are distributed as packages should always assume that all
the other libraries it depends on is as packages too, in the system
directories, so there is no need to have a RUNPATH embedded in them.
When checking out from source code, the paths that were used to
configure the project should be carried on to the installed binary,
so the same libraries are used without much effort.
By using RUNPATH instead of (just) RPATH, it can be overridden with
LD_LIBRARY_PATH if the user so desires.
Note the distinction between the version (1.0) and the release label
(2013.03). The latter is not really usable to check for API
compatibility. (See <http://www.semver.org>).
Although they don't use Boost::UnitTest, they can at least pass, so we
can use them to detect simple compilation and runtime errors, although
we miss the semantic check.
(If you have time, please make them proper unit tests)
If we write a blank value into the cache, we tell CMake that ERT isn't
found and it won't check again. If we delete it from the cache in case
we didn't find the directories, then CMake will run the find module
again the next time we configure. Just probing for directories is cheap
so this is no problem. This allows us to install ERT, do a reconfigure
and it will then be picked up by the build system.
If we find ERT and it doesn't compile properly, a blank value will still
be written, and it won't try again the next time, so you must wipe the
cache if you *upgrade* ERT into a newer and more compatible version.
