[ANNOUNCE] CMake 3.19.2 available for download
We are pleased to announce that CMake 3.19.2 is now available for download.
Please use the latest release from our download page:
https://cmake.org/download/
Starting with CMake 3.19.2 Apple ARM is now supported:
* The "CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR" is selected using "uname -m".
Since this may vary based on CMake’s own architecture and that of
the invoking process tree, the "CMAKE_APPLE_SILICON_PROCESSOR"
variable or "CMAKE_APPLE_SILICON_PROCESSOR" environment variable
may be set to specify a host architecture explicitly.
* If "CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES" is not set, CMake adds explicit flags
to tell the compiler to build for the
"CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR" so the toolchain does not have to
guess based on the process tree’s architecture.
Thanks for your support!

[ANNOUNCE] CMake 3.19.0 available for download
I am happy to announce that CMake 3.19.0 is now available for download at:
https://cmake.org/download/
Documentation is available at:
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.19
Release notes appear below and are also published at
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.19/release/3.19.html
Some of the more significant changes in CMake 3.19 are:
* "cmake(1)" and "cmake-gui(1)" now recognize "CMakePresets.json" and
"CMakeUserPresets.json" files (see "cmake-presets(7)").
* The "Xcode" generator now uses the Xcode “new build system” when
generating for Xcode 12.0 or higher. See the
"CMAKE_XCODE_BUILD_SYSTEM" variable. One may use "-T buildsystem=1"
to switch to the legacy build system.
* The Visual Studio Generators for VS 2015 and above gained support
for the Visual Studio Tools for Android. One may now set
"CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME" to "Android" to generate ".vcxproj" files for
the Android tools.
* CMake learned to support "ISPC" as a first-class language that can
be enabled via the "project()" and "enable_language()" commands.
"ISPC" is currently supported by the Makefile Generators and the
"Ninja" generator on Linux, macOS, and Windows using the Intel ISPC
compiler.
* "CUDA" language support for Clang now supports separable compilation
("CUDA_SEPARABLE_COMPILATION")
* The "CMake GUI" now has an environment variable editor.
* The "file(GENERATE)" command gained a new "TARGET" keyword to
support resolving target-dependent generator expressions.
* The "CMAKE_OPTIMIZE_DEPENDENCIES" variable was added to initialize
the new "OPTIMIZE_DEPENDENCIES" target property and avoid
unnecessarily building dependencies for a static library.
* The "CheckCompilerFlag" module has been added to generalize
"CheckCCompilerFlag" and "CheckCXXCompilerFlag" to more languages.
It also supports the "CUDA" and "ISPC" languages.
* The "CheckSourceCompiles" module has been added to generalize
"CheckCSourceCompiles" and "CheckCXXSourceCompiles" to more
languages. It also supports the "CUDA" and "ISPC" languages.
* The "CheckSourceRuns" module has been added to generalize
"CheckCSourceRuns" and "CheckCXXSourceRuns" to more languages. It
also supports the "CUDA" language.
* The "FindCUDAToolkit" module gained support for finding CUDA
toolkits that do not contain "nvcc", as well as for finding
scattered toolkit installations when cross-compiling.
* Interface Libraries may now have source files added via
"add_library()" or "target_sources()". Those with sources will be
generated as part of the build system.
* Compatibility with versions of CMake older than 2.8.12 is now
deprecated and will be removed from a future version. Calls to
"cmake_minimum_required()" or "cmake_policy()" that set the policy
version to an older value now issue a deprecation diagnostic.
CMake 3.19 Release Notes
Changes made since CMake 3.18 include the following.
New Features
Presets

to switch to the legacy build system.
* The "Xcode" generator gained support for linking libraries and
frameworks via the *Link Binaries With Libraries* build phase
instead of always by embedding linker flags directly. This behavior
is controlled by a new "XCODE_LINK_BUILD_PHASE_MODE" target
property, which is initialized by a new
"CMAKE_XCODE_LINK_BUILD_PHASE_MODE" variable.
* The Visual Studio Generators for VS 2015 and above gained support
for the Visual Studio Tools for Android. One may now set
"CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME" to "Android" to generate ".vcxproj" files for
the Android tools.

[ANNOUNCE] CMake 3.18.0 available for download
I am happy to announce that CMake 3.18.0 is now available for download at:
https://cmake.org/download/
Documentation is available at:
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.18
Release notes appear below and are also published at
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.18/release/3.18.html
Some of the more significant changes in CMake 3.18 are:
* The "CUDA" language can now be compiled using Clang on non-Windows
platforms. Separable compilation is not yet supported on any
platform.
* "cmake(1)" gained support for profiling of CMake scripts through the
parameters "--profiling-output" and "--profiling-format".
* The "add_library()" and "add_executable()" commands learned to
create Alias Targets referencing non-"GLOBAL" Imported Targets.
* The "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 "file(CONFIGURE)" subcommand was created in order to replicate
the "configure_file()" functionality without resorting to a pre-
existing file on disk as input. The content is instead passed as a
string.
* The "find_program()", "find_library()", "find_path()" and
"find_file()" commands gained a new "REQUIRED" option that will stop
processing with an error message if nothing is found.
* A "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
"CMAKE_CUDA_COMPILER_ID" is "NVIDIA". The variable is used to
initialize the new "CUDA_ARCHITECTURES" target property. See policy
"CMP0104".
* The "UNITY_BUILD_MODE" target property was added to tell generators
which algorithm ("BATCH", "GROUP") to use for grouping included source
files.
* The "CheckLinkerFlag" module has been added to provide a facility to
check validity of link flags.
* The "$" and "$" "generator
expressions" were added to manage device and host link steps.
* The "$" and "$" "generator
expressions" were added.
* "ctest(1)" gained a new "CTEST_RESOURCE_SPEC_FILE" variable, which
can be used to specify a resource specification file.
* "ccmake(1)" learned to read a "CCMAKE_COLORS" environment variable
to customize colors.
* On Windows, the "Ninja" and "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.
CMake 3.18 Release Notes
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
* "cmake(1)" gained support for profiling of CMake scripts through the
parameters "--profiling-output" and "--profiling-format".
* "cmake(1)" gained a "cat" command line option that can be used to
concatenate files and print them on standard output.
Commands
* The "add_library()" and "add_executable()" commands learned to
create Alias Targets referencing non-"GLOBAL" Imported Targets.
* The "cmake_language()" command was added for meta-operations on

* The "export()" command now raise an error if used multiple times
with same "FILE" without "APPEND". See policy "CMP0103".
* The "file()" command gained the "ARCHIVE_CREATE" and
"ARCHIVE_EXTRACT" subcommands to expose the "cmake(1)" "-E tar"
functionality to CMake scripting code.
* The "file(CONFIGURE)" subcommand was created in order to replicate
the "configure_file()" functionality without resorting to a pre-
existing file on disk as input. The content is instead passed as a
string.

options to control server certificate verification.
* The "find_program()", "find_library()", "find_path()" and
"find_file()" commands gained a new "REQUIRED" option that will stop
processing with an error message if nothing is found.

"DIRECTORY" and "TARGET_DIRECTORY" options to get a property from
the provided directory scope.
* The "get_source_file_property()" command gained the "DIRECTORY" and
"TARGET_DIRECTORY" options to get a property from the provided
directory scope.
* The "list()" operation "SORT" gained the "NATURAL" sort option to
sort using natural order (see "strverscmp(3)" manual).
* The "set_property()" command with the "SOURCE" scope gained the
"DIRECTORY" and

[ANNOUNCE] CMake 3.17.0 available for download
I am happy to announce that CMake 3.17.0 is now available for download at: https://cmake.org/download/ Documentation is available at: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.17 Release notes appear below and are also published at https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.17/release/3.17.html Some of the more significant changes in CMake 3.17 are: * "cmake(1)" gained a "Ninja Multi-Config" generator, which is similar to the "Ninja" generator but can be used to build multiple configurations at once. * Visual Studio Generators learned to support per-config sources. Previously only Command-Line Build Tool Generators supported them. * The "Compile Features" functionality now offers meta-features for the CUDA language standard levels (e.g. "cuda_std_03", "cuda_std_14"). See "CMAKE_CUDA_KNOWN_FEATURES". * The "CMAKE_CUDA_RUNTIME_LIBRARY" variable and "CUDA_RUNTIME_LIBRARY" target property were introduced to select the CUDA runtime library used when linking targets that use CUDA. * The "FindCUDAToolkit" module was added to find the CUDA Toolkit without enabling CUDA as a language. * "cmake(1)" gained a "--debug-find" command-line option to enable additional human-readable output on where "find_*" commands search. * The "CMAKE_FIND_DEBUG_MODE" variable was introduced to print extra "find_*" call information during the cmake run to standard error. Output is designed for human consumption and not for parsing. * The "FindCURL" module learned to find CURL using the "CURLConfig.cmake" package configuration file generated by CURL’s cmake buildsystem. It also gained a new "CURL_NO_CURL_CMAKE" option to disable this behavior. * The "FindPython" module has learned to find Python components in active virtual environments managed by "conda". * The "ctest(1)" tool gained a "--no-tests=<[error|ignore]>" option to explicitly set and unify the behavior between direct invocation and script mode if no tests were found. * The "ctest(1)" tool gained a "--repeat :" option to specify conditions in which to repeat tests. This generalizes the existing "--repeat-until-fail " option to add modes for "until-pass" and "after-timeout". * Target link properties "INTERFACE_LINK_OPTIONS", "INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES" and "INTERFACE_LINK_DEPENDS" are now transitive over private dependencies on static libraries. See policy "CMP0099". * When using MinGW tools, the "find_library()" command no longer finds ".dll" files by default. Instead, it expects ".dll.a" import libraries to be available. * The "Ninja" generator now prefers the first ninja build tool to appear in the "PATH" no matter whether it is called "ninja-build", "ninja", or "samu". Previously the first of those names to appear anywhere in the "PATH" would be preferred. * "cmake(1)" gained a "-E rm" command-line tool that can be used to remove directories and files. This supersedes the existing "-E remove" and "-E remove_directory" tools and has better semantics. CMake 3.17 Release Notes Changes made since CMake 3.16 include the following. New Features Generators -- * "cmake(1)" gained a "Ninja Multi-Config" generator, which is similar to the "Ninja" generator but can be used to build multiple configurations at once. * Visual Studio Generators learned to support per-config sources. Previously only Command-Line Build Tool Generators supported them. * Visual Studio Generators for VS 2010 and above now support specifying the "VCTargetsPath" value for project files in "CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET" setting. * Visual Studio Generators for VS 2010 and above learned to support .NET Standard and .NET Core. See the "DOTNET_TARGET_FRAMEWORK" target property and associated "CMAKE_DOTNET_TARGET_FRAMEWORK" variable. Languages - * The "Compile Features" functionality now offers meta-features for the CUDA language standard levels (e.g. "cuda_std_03", "cuda_std_14"). See "CMAKE_CUDA_KNOWN_FEATURES". Compilers - * The IBM XL Fortran compiler is now supported by the "Ninja" generator. Command-Line * "cmake(1)" gained a "--debug-find" command-line option to enable additional human-readable output on where "find_*" commands search. * "cmake(1)" gained a "--trace-format" command-line option that can be used to set the "--trace" output format. Currently, the old human readable and the new JSON format are supported. The new JSON format is easier to parse automatically than the existing format. * "cmake(1)" gained a "-E rm" command-line tool that can be used to remove directories and files. This supersedes the existing "-E remove" and "-E remove_directory" tools and has better semantics. Commands * The "add_custom_command()" command learned to interpret paths in "DEPENDS" arguments that are specified relative to the current binary directory. * The "foreach()" command learned a new "ZIP_LISTS" option

not be fixed without breaking compatibility, and so have been superseded. Other Changes = * The "file API" index file now emits a "multiConfig" flag specifying whether or not the generator supports multiple output configurations. * Target link properties "INTERFACE_LINK_OPTIONS", "INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES" and "INTERFACE_LINK_DEPENDS" are now transitive over private dependencies on static libraries. See policy "CMP0099". * When using MinGW tools, the "find_library()" command no longer finds ".dll" files by default. Instead, it expects ".dll.a" import libraries to be available. * The "MinGW Makefiles" generator no longer issues an error if "sh.exe" is present in the environment’s "PATH". * The "Ninja" generator now prefers the first ninja build tool to appear in the "PATH" no matter whether it is called "ninja-build", "ninja", or "samu". Previously the first of those names to appear anywhere in the "PATH" would be preferred. * With SDCC the "sdar" tool is now preferred over "sdcclib" as librarian. The latter was deprecated by SDCC 3.2.0 and removed in SDCC 3.8.6. * With SDCC the default flags no longer include any target-specific flags. Previously the default flags were hard-coded for 8051. * The "CMAKE_VS_GLOBALS" variable value now applies during compiler identification and in targets created by the "add_custom_target()" command. * The "Xcode" generator no longer hard-codes "-Wmost", "-Wno-four- char-constants", and "-Wno-unknown-pragmas" warning flags.

[ANNOUNCE] CMake 3.16.0 available for download
I am happy to announce that CMake 3.16.0 is now available for download at:
https://cmake.org/download/
Documentation is available at:
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.16
Release notes appear below and are also published at
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.16/release/3.16.html
Some of the more significant changes in CMake 3.16 are:
* CMake learned to support the Objective C ("OBJC") and Objective
C++ ("OBJCXX") languages. They may be enabled via the "project()"
and "enable_language()" commands. When "OBJC" or "OBJCXX" is
enabled, source files with the ".m" or ".mm", respectively, will be
compiled as Objective C or C++. Otherwise they will be treated as
plain C++ sources as they were before.
* The "target_precompile_headers()" command was added to specify a
list of headers to precompile for faster compilation times.
* The "UNITY_BUILD" target property was added to tell generators to
batch include source files for faster compilation times.
* The "find_file()", "find_library()", "find_path()",
"find_package()", and "find_program()" commands have learned to
check the following variables to control searching
* "CMAKE_FIND_USE_CMAKE_ENVIRONMENT_PATH" - Controls the searching
the cmake-specific environment variables.
* "CMAKE_FIND_USE_CMAKE_PATH" - Controls the searching the cmake-
specific cache variables.
* "CMAKE_FIND_USE_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PATH" - Controls the searching
cmake platform specific variables.
* "CMAKE_FIND_USE_PACKAGE_ROOT_PATH" - Controls the searching of
"_ROOT" variables.
* "CMAKE_FIND_USE_SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT_PATH" - Controls the
searching the standard system environment variables.
* The "file()" command learned a new sub-command,
"GET_RUNTIME_DEPENDENCIES", which allows you to recursively get the
list of libraries linked by an executable or library. This sub-
command is intended as a replacement for "GetPrerequisites".
* "ctest(1)" now has the ability to serialize tests based on
resource requirements for each test. See Resource Allocation for
details.
* On AIX, executables using the "ENABLE_EXPORTS" target property now
produce a linker import file with a ".imp" extension in addition to
the executable file. Plugins (created via "add_library()" with the
"MODULE" option) that use "target_link_libraries()" to link to the
executable for its symbols are now linked using the import file. The
"install(TARGETS)" command now installs the import file as an
"ARCHIVE" artifact.
* On AIX, runtime linking is no longer enabled by default. CMake
provides the linker enough information to resolve all symbols up
front. One may manually enable runtime linking for shared libraries
and/or loadable modules by adding "-Wl,-G" to their link flags (e.g.
in the "CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS" or "CMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS"
variable). One may manually enable runtime linking for executables
by adding "-Wl,-brtl" to their link flags (e.g. in the
"CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS" variable).
* "cmake(1)" "-E" now supports "true" and "false" commands, which do
nothing while returning exit codes of 0 and 1, respectively.
* "cmake(1)" gained a "--trace-redirect=" command line option
that can be used to redirect "--trace" output to a file instead of
"stderr".
* The "cmake(1)" "--loglevel" command line option has been renamed
to "--log-level" to make it consistent with the naming of other
command line options. The "--loglevel" option is still supported to
preserve backward compatibility.
* The "CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_NO_PACKAGE_REGISTRY" variable has been
deprecated. Use the "CMAKE_FIND_USE_PACKAGE_REGISTRY" variable
instead.
* The "GetPrerequisites" module has been deprecated, as it has been
superceded by "file(GET_RUNTIME_DEPENDENCIES)".
CMake 3.16 Release Notes
Changes made since CMake 3.15 include the following.
New Features
Languages
-
* CMake learned to support the Objective C ("OBJC") and Objective
C++ ("OBJCXX") languages. They may be enabled via the "project()"
and "enable_language()" commands. When "OBJC" or "OBJCXX" is
enabled, source files with the ".m" or ".mm", respectively, will be
compiled as Objective C or C++. Otherwise they will be treated as
plain C++ sources as they were before.
Compilers
-
* The "Clang" compiler is now supported on "Solaris".
Platforms
-
* On AIX, executables using the "ENABLE_EXPORTS" target property now
produce a linker import file with a ".imp" extension in addition to
the executable file. Plugins (created via "add_library()" with the
"MODULE" option) that use "target_link_libraries()" to link to the
executable for its symbols are now linked using the import file. The
"install(TARGETS)" command now installs the import file as an
"ARCHIVE" artifact.
* On AIX, runtime linking is no longer enabled by default. CMake
provides the linker enough information to resolve all symbols up
[ANNOUNCE] CMake 3.16.0-rc4 is ready for testing
ted by GTest 1.8.1. * The "project()" command no longer strips leading zeros in version components. See policy "CMP0096". * The Qt Compressed Help file is now named "CMake.qch", which no longer contains the release version in the file name. When CMake is upgraded in-place, the name and location of this file will remain constant.

[ANNOUNCE] CMake 3.16.0-rc3 is ready for testing
I am proud to announce the third CMake 3.16 release candidate.
https://cmake.org/download/
Documentation is available at:
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.16
Release notes appear below and are also published at
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.16/release/3.16.html
Some of the more significant changes in CMake 3.16 are:
* CMake learned to support the Objective C ("OBJC") and Objective
C++ ("OBJCXX") languages. They may be enabled via the "project()"
and "enable_language()" commands. When "OBJC" or "OBJCXX" is
enabled, source files with the ".m" or ".mm", respectively, will be
compiled as Objective C or C++. Otherwise they will be treated as
plain C++ sources as they were before.
* The "target_precompile_headers()" command was added to specify a
list of headers to precompile for faster compilation times.
* The "UNITY_BUILD" target property was added to tell generators to
batch include source files for faster compilation times.
* The "find_file()", "find_library()", "find_path()",
"find_package()", and "find_program()" commands have learned to
check the following variables to control searching
* "CMAKE_FIND_USE_CMAKE_ENVIRONMENT_PATH" - Controls the searching
the cmake-specific environment variables.
* "CMAKE_FIND_USE_CMAKE_PATH" - Controls the searching the cmake-
specific cache variables.
* "CMAKE_FIND_USE_CMAKE_SYSTEM_PATH" - Controls the searching
cmake platform specific variables.
* "CMAKE_FIND_USE_PACKAGE_ROOT_PATH" - Controls the searching of
"_ROOT" variables.
* "CMAKE_FIND_USE_SYSTEM_ENVIRONMENT_PATH" - Controls the
searching the standard system environment variables.
* The "file()" command learned a new sub-command,
"GET_RUNTIME_DEPENDENCIES", which allows you to recursively get the
list of libraries linked by an executable or library. This sub-
command is intended as a replacement for "GetPrerequisites".
* "ctest(1)" now has the ability to serialize tests based on
hardware requirements for each test. See Hardware Allocation for
details.
* On AIX, executables using the "ENABLE_EXPORTS" target property now
produce a linker import file with a ".imp" extension in addition to
the executable file. Plugins (created via "add_library()" with the
"MODULE" option) that use "target_link_libraries()" to link to the
executable for its symbols are now linked using the import file. The
"install(TARGETS)" command now installs the import file as an
"ARCHIVE" artifact.
* On AIX, runtime linking is no longer enabled by default. CMake
provides the linker enough information to resolve all symbols up
front. One may manually enable runtime linking for shared libraries
and/or loadable modules by adding "-Wl,-G" to their link flags (e.g.
in the "CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS" or "CMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS"
variable). One may manually enable runtime linking for executables
by adding "-Wl,-brtl" to their link flags (e.g. in the
"CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS" variable).
* "cmake(1)" "-E" now supports "true" and "false" commands, which do
nothing while returning exit codes of 0 and 1, respectively.
* "cmake(1)" gained a "--trace-redirect=" command line option
that can be used to redirect "--trace" output to a file instead of
"stderr".
* The "cmake(1)" "--loglevel" command line option has been renamed
to "--log-level" to make it consistent with the naming of other
command line options. The "--loglevel" option is still supported to
preserve backward compatibility.
* The "CMAKE_FIND_PACKAGE_NO_PACKAGE_REGISTRY" variable has been
deprecated. Use the "CMAKE_FIND_USE_PACKAGE_REGISTRY" variable
instead.
* The "GetPrerequisites" module has been deprecated, as it has been
superceded by "file(GET_RUNTIME_DEPENDENCIES)".
CMake 3.16 Release Notes
Changes made since CMake 3.15 include the following.

enabled, source files with the ".m" or ".mm", respectively, will be
compiled as Objective C or C++. Otherwise they will be treated as
plain C++ sources as they were before.

See policy "CMP0091". * With MSVC-like compilers the value of "CMAKE__FLAGS" no longer contains warning flags like "/W3" by default. See policy "CMP0092". * The "Clang" compiler variant on Windows that targets the MSVC ABI but has a GNU-like command line is now supported. * Preliminary support for the "Swift" language was added to the "Ninja" generator. * The "$" generator expression was introduced to allow specification of compile options for target files based on the "CMAKE__COMPILER_ID" and "LANGUAGE" of each source file. * 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. * 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 "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 "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 "FindBoost" module was reworked to expose a more consistent user experience between its “Config” and “Module” modes and with other find modules in general. * The "message()" command learned new types: "NOTICE", "VERBOSE", "DEBUG" and "TRACE". * The "export(PACKAGE)" command now does nothing unless enabled via "CMAKE_EXPORT_PACKAGE_REGISTRY". See policy "CMP0090". * 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)" 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-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. CMake 3.15 Release Notes Changes made since CMake 3.14 include the following. 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.

* 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.

I am proud to announce the third CMake 3.15 release candidate. https://cmake.org/download/ Documentation is available at: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.15 Release notes appear below and are also published at https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.15/release/3.15.html Some of the more significant changes in CMake 3.15 are: * 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". * With MSVC-like compilers the value of "CMAKE__FLAGS" no longer contains warning flags like "/W3" by default. See policy "CMP0092". * The "Clang" compiler variant on Windows that targets the MSVC ABI but has a GNU-like command line is now supported. * Preliminary support for the "Swift" language was added to the "Ninja" generator. * The "$" generator expression was introduced to allow specification of compile options for target files based on the "CMAKE__COMPILER_ID" and "LANGUAGE" of each source file. * 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. * 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 "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 "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 "FindBoost" module was reworked to expose a more consistent user experience between its “Config” and “Module” modes and with other find modules in general. * The "message()" command learned new types: "NOTICE", "VERBOSE", "DEBUG" and "TRACE". * The "export(PACKAGE)" command now does nothing unless enabled via "CMAKE_EXPORT_PACKAGE_REGISTRY". See policy "CMP0090". * 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)" 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-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. CMake 3.15 Release Notes Changes made since CMake 3.14 include the following. 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.

[ANNOUNCE] CMake 3.14.0 available for download
I am happy to announce that CMake 3.14.0 is now available for download at:
https://cmake.org/download/
Documentation is available at:
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.14
Release notes appear below and are also published at
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.14/release/3.14.html
Some of the more significant changes in CMake 3.14 are:
* Support for running CMake on Windows XP and Windows Vista has been
dropped. The precompiled Windows binaries provided on "cmake.org"
now require Windows 7 or higher.
* CMake now supports Cross Compiling for iOS, tvOS, or watchOS using
simple toolchain files.
* The "Visual Studio 16 2019" generator was added. This is
experimental and based on "Visual Studio 2019 Preview 4" because
this version of VS has not been released.
The VS 2019 generator differs from generators for earlier versions
in that it does not provide variants that specify the target
platform in the generator name. Instead "CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM"
must be used, e.g. through the "-A" command-line option.
Furthermore, the default target platform (architecture) is now based
on the *host* platform. The VS host toolset selection is now based
on the host architecture as well.
* The "Green Hills MULTI" generator has been updated to include Object
Library support, support for target renaming and destination output
control properties, and other improvements.
* A "CMAKE_BUILD_RPATH_USE_ORIGIN" variable and corresponding
"BUILD_RPATH_USE_ORIGIN" target property were added to enable use of
relative runtime paths (RPATHs). This helps achieving relocatable
and reproducible builds that are invariant of the build directory.
* The "install(TARGETS)" command learned how to install to an
appropriate default directory for a given target type, based on
variables from the "GNUInstallDirs" module and built-in defaults, in
lieu of a "DESTINATION" argument.
* The "install(FILES)" and "install(DIRECTORY)" commands learned a
new set of parameters for installing files as a file type, setting
the destination based on the appropriate variables from
"GNUInstallDirs" and built-in defaults, in lieu of a "DESTINATION"
argument.
* The "install(CODE)" and "install(SCRIPT)" commands learned to
support generator expressions. See policy "CMP0087".
* The "if()" command gained support for checking if cache variables
are defined with the "DEFINED CACHE{VAR}" syntax.
* A file-based api for clients to get semantic buildsystem
information has been added. See the "cmake-file-api(7)" manual.
This is intended to replace the "cmake-server(7)" mode for IDEs.
* The "cmake(1)" Build Tool Mode ("cmake --build") gained "--
verbose" and "-v" options to specify verbose build output. Some
generators such as Xcode don't support this option currently.
* The "cmake(1)" "-E compare_files" command learned a new "--ignore-
eol" option to specify that end-of-line differences (e.g. LF vs
CRLF) should be ignored when comparing files.

* Now generates a top-level ".top.gpj" for each
directory calling the "project()" command. The top-level project
file "default.gpj" is no longer created.
* Now honors target renaming and destination output control
properties such as "RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY" and "OUTPUT_NAME".
This also fixes support for installation rules generated by
"install()".
* Now honors source file properties "INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES",
"COMPILE_DEFINITIONS", and "COMPILE_OPTIONS".
* Now supports Dynamic Download Integrity Applications which did
not include Integrate Files via "GHS_INTEGRITY_APP" and setting a
target link flag of "-dynamic".
* The contents of project files now sorts sources groups and files
by name. Set the "GHS_NO_SOURCE_GROUP_FILE" target property to
"ON" to generate a single project file for the target instead of a
project file for each source group. Set the
"CMAKE_GHS_NO_SOURCE_GROUP_FILE" variable to enable this for all
targets.

[ANNOUNCE] CMake 3.14.0-rc2 is ready for testing
I am proud to announce the second CMake 3.14 release candidate.
https://cmake.org/download/
Documentation is available at:
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.14
Release notes appear below and are also published at
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.14/release/3.14.html
Some of the more significant changes in CMake 3.14 are:
* Support for running CMake on Windows XP and Windows Vista has been
dropped. The precompiled Windows binaries provided on "cmake.org"
now require Windows 7 or higher.
* CMake now supports Cross Compiling for iOS, tvOS, or watchOS using
simple toolchain files.
* The "Visual Studio 16 2019" generator was added. This is
experimental and based on "Visual Studio 2019 Preview 2" because
this version of VS has not been released.
The VS 2019 generator differs from generators for earlier versions
in that it does not provide variants that specify the target
platform in the generator name. Instead "CMAKE_GENERATOR_PLATFORM"
must be used, e.g. through the "-A" command-line option.
Furthermore, the default target platform (architecture) is now based
on the *host* platform. The VS host toolset selection is now based
on the host architecture as well.
* The "Green Hills MULTI" generator has been updated to include Object
Library support, support for target renaming and destination output
control properties, and other improvements.
* A "CMAKE_BUILD_RPATH_USE_ORIGIN" variable and corresponding
"BUILD_RPATH_USE_ORIGIN" target property were added to enable use of
relative runtime paths (RPATHs). This helps achieving relocatable
and reproducible builds that are invariant of the build directory.
* The "install(TARGETS)" command learned how to install to an
appropriate default directory for a given target type, based on
variables from the "GNUInstallDirs" module and built-in defaults, in
lieu of a "DESTINATION" argument.
* The "install(FILES)" and "install(DIRECTORY)" commands learned a
new set of parameters for installing files as a file type, setting
the destination based on the appropriate variables from
"GNUInstallDirs" and built-in defaults, in lieu of a "DESTINATION"
argument.
* The "install(CODE)" and "install(SCRIPT)" commands learned to
support generator expressions. See policy "CMP0087".
* The "if()" command gained support for checking if cache variables
are defined with the "DEFINED CACHE{VAR}" syntax.
* A file-based api for clients to get semantic buildsystem
information has been added. See the "cmake-file-api(7)" manual.
This is intended to replace the "cmake-server(7)" mode for IDEs.
* The "cmake(1)" Build Tool Mode ("cmake --build") gained "--
verbose" and "-v" options to specify verbose build output. Some
generators such as Xcode don't support this option currently.
* The "cmake(1)" "-E compare_files" command learned a new "--ignore-
eol" option to specify that end-of-line differences (e.g. LF vs
CRLF) should be ignored when comparing files.

Furthermore, the default target platform (architecture) is now based

* The "Green Hills MULTI" generator has been updated:
* Now supports Object Libraries.
* Now warns on unsupported project types such as shared libraries.
* Now generates a top-level ".top.gpj" for each
directory calling the "project()" command. The top-level project
file "default.gpj" is no longer created.
* Now honors target renaming and destination output control
properties such as "RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY" and "OUTPUT_NAME".
This also fixes support for installation rules generated by
"install()".
* Now honors source file properties "INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES",
"COMPILE_DEFINITIONS", and "COMPILE_OPTIONS".
* Now supports Dynamic Download Integrity Applications which did
not include Integrate Files via "GHS_INTEGRITY_APP" and setting a
target link flag of "-dynamic".
* The contents of project files now sorts sources groups and files
by name. Set the "GHS_NO_SOURCE_GROUP_FILE" target property to
"ON" to generate a single project file for the target instead of a
project file for each source group. Set the
"CMAKE_GHS_NO_SOURCE_GROUP_FILE" variable to enable this for all
targets.

not be possible to use CPack for the entire packaging process.
Deprecated and Removed Features
===
* An explicit deprecation diagnostic was added for policies
"CMP0055" through "CMP0063" ("CMP0054" 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
=
* The precompiled binaries provided on "cmake.org" now include
qthelp- format documentation.
* The "option()" command now honors an existing normal variable of
the same name and does nothing instead of possibly creating a cache
entry (or setting its type) and removing the normal variable. See
policy "CMP0077".
* The Makefile Generators learned to remove custom command and
custom target byproducts during "make clean".
* The "target_sources()" command now interprets relative source file
paths as relative to the current source directory. This simplifies
incrementally building up a target's sources from subdirectories.
The "CMP0076" policy was added to provide backward compatibility
with the old behavior where required.
* The "BundleUtilities" module may no longer be included at
configure time. This was always a bug anyway. See policy "CMP0080".
* The "UseSWIG" module has changed strategy for target naming. See
policy "CMP0078".
* The "LINK_DIRECTORIES" target property now expects absolute paths.
See policy "CMP0081".
* The CPack generators have been moved into their own separate
section in the documentation, rather than having the documentation
in their internal implementation modules. These internal
implementation modules are also no longer available to scripts that
may have been incorrectly including them, because they should never
have been available in the first place.

See policy "CMP0079". * The "install(TARGETS)" command learned to install targets created outside the current directory. * The "install(CODE)" and "install(SCRIPT)" commands learned to support generator expressions. * A "VS_DEBUGGER_COMMAND_ARGUMENTS" target property was created to set the debugging command line arguments with Visual Studio Generators for VS 2010 and above. * A "VS_DEBUGGER_ENVIRONMENT" target property was created to set the debugging environment with Visual Studio Generators for VS 2010 and above. * The "option()" command now honors an existing normal variable of the same name and does nothing instead of possibly creating a cache entry (or setting its type) and removing the normal variable. See policy "CMP0077". * The "target_sources()" command now interprets relative source file paths as relative to the current source directory. This simplifies incrementally building up a target's sources from subdirectories. The "CMP0076" policy was added to provide backward compatibility with the old behavior where required. CMake 3.13 Release Notes Changes made since CMake 3.12 include the following. New Features Generators -- * The Visual Studio Generators for VS 2010 and above learned to support the "INTERPROCEDURAL_OPTIMIZATION" target property and supporting "CheckIPOSupported" module. * The "Xcode" generator learned to configure more Xcode Scheme fields.

module has learned to export the found
libraries with full path for direct consumption with the
"target_link_libraries()" command.
* New "FindPython3" and "FindPython2" modules, as well as a new
"FindPython" module, have been added to provide a new way to locate
python environments.
* The "UseSWIG" module gained a whole refresh and is now more
consistent with standard CMake commands to generate libraries and is
fully configurable through properties.
* The "UseSWIG" module learned to manage multiple behaviors through
"UseSWIG_MODULE_VERSION" variable to ensure legacy support as well
as more robust handling of "SWIG" advanced features (like
"%template").
* The "UseSWIG" module learned to support CSHARP variant wrapper
files.
* The "WriteCompilerDetectionHeader" module gained a "BARE_FEATURES"
option to add a compatibility define for the exact keyword of a new
language feature.
Generator Expressions
-
* A new "$" and "$"
"generator expression" has been added to enable consumption of
generator expressions whose evaluation results itself in generator
expressions.
* A new "$" "generator expression" has been added.
* A new "$" "generator expression" has been
added.
* A new "$" "generator expression" has
been added.
CTest
-
* The "ctest_start()" command has been reworked so that you can
simply call "ctest_start(APPEND)" and it will read all the needed
information from the TAG file. The argument parsing has also been
relaxed so that the order of the arguments is less significant.
* A "PROCESSOR_AFFINITY" test property was added to request that
CTest run a test with CPU affinity for a set of processors disjoint
from other concurrently running tests with the property set.
CPack
-
* The "CPack" module now uses variables
"CMAKE_PROJECT_VERSION_MAJOR", "CMAKE_PROJECT_VERSION_MINOR" and
"CMAKE_PROJECT_VERSION_PATCH" to initialize corresponding CPack
variables.
* "cpack(1)" gained basic support for NuGet. See the "CPackNuGet"
module.
Other
-
* The "Compile Features" functionality is now aware of C++ 20. No
specific features are yet enumerated besides the "cxx_std_20" meta-
feature.
* The "Compile Features" functionality is now aware of the
availability of C features in MSVC since VS 2010.
* The "Compile Features" functionality is now aware of C language
standards supported by Texas Instruments C compilers.
Deprecated and Removed Features
===
* The "Visual Studio 8 2005" generator has been removed.
* CMake no longer produces "_LIB_DEPENDS" cache entries for
library targets. See policy "CMP0073".
Other Changes
=
* Include flags for directories marked as "SYSTEM" are now moved
after non-system directories. The "-isystem" flag does this
automatically, so moving them explicitly to the end makes the
behavior consistent on compilers that do not have any "-isystem"
flag.
* Fortran dependency scanning now supports dependencies implied by
Fortran Submodules.
* The existence and functionality of the file
"${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/cmake_install.cmake" has now been documented in
the "install()" documentation so that external packaging software
can take advantage of CPack-style component installs.
* The "CheckIncludeFile" module "check_include_file" macro learned
to honor the "CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES" variable. See policy
"CMP0075".
* The "CheckIncludeFileCXX" module "check_include_file_cxx" macro
learned to honor the "CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES" variable. See policy
"CMP0075".
* The "CheckIncludeFiles" module "check_include_files" macro learned
to honor the "CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES" variable. See policy
"CMP0075".
* The "cmake(1)" "-E copy_directory" tool now fails when the source
directory does not exist. Previously it succeeded by creating an
empty destination directory.
* The "UseSWIG" module "swig_add_library()" command (and legacy
"swig_add_module" command) now set the prefix of Java modules to
"""" for MINGW, MSYS, and CYGWIN environments.

[ANNOUNCE] CMake 3.12.0-rc3 is ready for testing
I am proud to announce the third CMake 3.12 release candidate.
https://cmake.org/download/
The first two 3.12.0 release candidates included a change to allow
the target_link_libraries command to modify targets created outside
the current directory. This has been reverted in rc3 due to
problems with visibility of the linked targets. See issue 17943.
Documentation is available at:
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.12
Release notes appear below and are also published at
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.12/release/3.12.html
Some of the more significant changes in CMake 3.12 are:
* The "target_link_libraries()" command now supports Object
Libraries. Linking to an object library uses its object files in
direct dependents and also propagates usage requirements.
* The "file(GLOB)" and "file(GLOB_RECURSE)" commands learned a new
flag "CONFIGURE_DEPENDS" which enables expression of build system
dependency on globbed directory's contents.
* The "Compile Features" functionality is now aware of C++ 20. No
specific features are yet enumerated besides the "cxx_std_20" meta-
feature.
* The Visual Studio Generators for VS 2017 learned to support a
"version=14.##" option in the "CMAKE_GENERATOR_TOOLSET" value (e.g.
via the "cmake(1)" "-T" option) to specify a toolset version number.
* The "cmake(1)" Build Tool Mode ("cmake --build") gained "--
parallel []" and "-j []" options to specify a parallel
build level. They map to corresponding options of the native build
tool.
* The "add_compile_definitions()" command was added to set
preprocessor definitions at directory level. This supersedes
"add_definitions()".
* The "cmake_minimum_required()" and "cmake_policy(VERSION)"
commands now accept a version range using the form
"[...]". The "" version is required but policies are
set based on the "" version. This allows projects to specify a
range of versions for which they have been updated and avoid
explicit policy settings.
* The "find_package()" command now searches a prefix specified by a
"PackageName_ROOT" CMake or environment variable. Package roots are
maintained as a stack so nested calls to all "find_*" commands
inside find modules also search the roots as prefixes. See policy
"CMP0074".
* A new "$" and "$"
"generator expression" has been added to enable consumption of
generator expressions whose evaluation results itself in generator
expressions.
* A new "$" "generator expression" has been
added.
* A new "$" "generator expression" has
been added.
* The "FindCURL" module now provides imported targets.
* The "FindJPEG" module now provides imported targets.
* A "FindODBC" module was added to find an Open Database
Connectivity (ODBC) library.
* New "FindPython3" and "FindPython2" modules, as well as a new
"FindPython" module, have been added to provide a new way to locate
python environments.

* The "file(TOUCH)" and "file(TOUCH_NOCREATE)" commands were added
to expose "TOUCH" functionality without having to use CMake's
command- line tool mode with "execute_process()".
* The "find_package()" command now searches a prefix specified by a
"PackageName_ROOT" CMake or environment variable. Package roots are
maintained as a stack so nested calls to all "find_*" commands
inside find modules also search the roots as prefixes. See policy

* The "install()" command learned an optional "NAMELINK_COMPONENT"
parameter, which allows you to change the component for a shared
library's namelink. If none is specified, the value of "COMPONENT"
is used by default.
* The "list()" command learned a "JOIN" sub-command to concatenate
list's elements separated by a glue string.

* Calling "add_library()" to create an alias of an imported target
that is not globally visible now causes an error again as it did
prior to 3.11.0. This diagnostic was accidentally dropped from
CMake 3.11.0 and 3.11.1 by the change to allow globally visible
imported targets to be aliased.
* The "FindQt4" module "qt4_wrap_cpp", "qt4_wrap_ui" and
"qt4_add_resources" macros now set "SKIP_AUTOMOC" and "SKIP_AUTOUIC"
on their generated files. These files never need to be processed by
moc or uic, and we must say so explicitly to account for policy
"CMP0071".

[ANNOUNCE] CMake 3.11.0 available for download
I am proud to announce that CMake 3.11.0 is now available for download at:
https://cmake.org/download/
Documentation is available at:
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.11
Release notes appear below and are also published at
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.11/release/3.11.html
Some of the more significant changes in CMake 3.11 are:
* The Makefile Generators and the "Ninja" generator learned to add
compiler launcher tools along with the compiler for the "Fortran"
language ("C", "CXX", and "CUDA" were supported previously). See the
"CMAKE__COMPILER_LAUNCHER" variable and
"_COMPILER_LAUNCHER" target property for details.
* Visual Studio Generators learned to support the "COMPILE_LANGUAGE"
"generator expression" in target-wide "COMPILE_DEFINITIONS",
"INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES", "COMPILE_OPTIONS", and "file(GENERATE)". See
generator expression documentation for caveats.
* The "Xcode" Generator learned to support the "COMPILE_LANGUAGE"
"generator expression" in target-wide "COMPILE_DEFINITIONS" and
"INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES". It previously supported only
"COMPILE_OPTIONS" and "file(GENERATE)". See generator expression
documentation for caveats.
* "add_library()" and "add_executable()" commands can now be called
without any sources and will not complain as long as sources are
added later via the "target_sources()" command.
* The "target_compile_definitions()" command learned to set the
"INTERFACE_COMPILE_DEFINITIONS" property on Imported Targets.
* The "target_compile_features()" command learned to set the
"INTERFACE_COMPILE_FEATURES" property on Imported Targets.
* The "target_compile_options()" command learned to set the
"INTERFACE_COMPILE_OPTIONS" property on Imported Targets.
* The "target_include_directories()" command learned to set the
"INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES" property on Imported Targets.
* The "target_sources()" command learned to set the
"INTERFACE_SOURCES" property on Imported Targets.
* The "target_link_libraries()" command learned to set the
"INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES" property on Imported Targets.
* The "COMPILE_DEFINITIONS" source file property learned to support
"generator expressions".
* A "COMPILE_OPTIONS" source file property was added to manage list
of options to pass to the compiler.
* When using "AUTOMOC" or "AUTOUIC", CMake now starts multiple
parallel "moc" or "uic" processes to reduce the build time. A new
"CMAKE_AUTOGEN_PARALLEL" variable and "AUTOGEN_PARALLEL" target
property may be set to specify the number of parallel "moc" or "uic"
processes to start. The default is derived from the number of CPUs
on the host.

I am proud to announce that CMake 3.10.0 is now available for download at:

Documentation is available at:
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.10
Release notes appear below and are also published at
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.10/release/3.10.html
Some of the more significant changes in CMake 3.10 are:
* The flang Fortran compiler is now supported, with compiler id
"Flang".
* Support for the MSVC ARM64 architecture was added. Visual Studio
2017 Update 4 and above offer an ARM64 toolchain.
* The "include_guard()" command was introduced to allow guarding
CMake scripts from being included more than once. The command
supports "DIRECTORY" and "GLOBAL" options to adjust the
corresponding include guard scope. If no options given, include
guard is similar to basic variable-based check.
* "FindMPI" received a major overhaul. It now features language specific
components, better Fortran support, and support for statically linked
MPI implementations.
* A "FindOpenACC" module was added to detect compiler support for
OpenACC. Currently only supports PGI, GNU and Cray compilers.
* The "FindOpenGL" module underwent numerous improvements. It has gained
support for GLVND and EGL on Linux. It now has import targets that
separate the OpenGL library and OpenGL contexts.
* The "GoogleTest" module gained a new command
"gtest_discover_tests()" implementing dynamic (build-time) test
discovery.
* When using "AUTOMOC" or "AUTOUIC", source files that are
"GENERATED" will be processed as well. They were ignored by
"AUTOMOC" and "AUTOUIC" in earlier releases. See policy "CMP0071".
* A "CTEST_LABELS_FOR_SUBPROJECTS" CTest module variable and CTest
script variable were added to specify a list of labels that should
be treated as subprojects by CDash. To use this value in both the
CTest module and the ctest command line Dashboard Client mode (e.g.
"ctest -S") set it in the "CTestConfig.cmake" config file.
* CPack gained a "FREEBSD" generator for FreeBSD "pkg(8)",
configured by the "CPackFreeBSD" module.

CMake 3.10 Release Notes
Changes made since CMake 3.9 include the following.
New Features
Platforms
-
* The flang Fortran compiler is now supported, with compiler id
"Flang".
* A new minimal platform file for "Midipix" was added.
* Support for the MSVC ARM64 architecture was added. Visual Studio
2017 Update 4 and above offer an ARM64 toolchain.
* Support for the IAR ARM Compiler was improved.
Generators
--
* The Makefile Generators and the "Ninja" generator learned to add
compiler launcher tools like ccache along with the compiler for the
"CUDA" language ("C" and "CXX" were supported previously). See the
"CMAKE__COMPILER_LAUNCHER" variable and
"_COMPILER_LAUNCHER" target property for details.
* The "CodeBlocks" extra generator learned to optionally exclude
files from outside the project root directory from the generated
project. See the "CMAKE_CODEBLOCKS_EXCLUDE_EXTERNAL_FILES" variable.
Commands
* The "cmake_host_system_information()" command learned more keys to
get information about the processor capabilities and the host OS
version.
* The "configure_file()" command learned to support indented "#
cmakedefine" and "# cmakedefine01". Spaces and/or tabs between the
"#" character and the "cmakedefine"/"cmakedefine01" words are now
understood and preserved in the output.
* The "execute_process()" command gained a "RESULTS_VARIABLE" option
to collect a list of results from all children in a pipeline of
processes when multiple "COMMAND" arguments are given.
* The "include_guard()" command was introduced to allow guarding
CMake scripts from being included more than once. The command
supports "DIRECTORY" and "GLOBAL" options to adjust the
corresponding include guard scope. If no options given, include
guard is similar to basic variable-based check.
* The "string()" command learned a new "PREPEND" subcommand.
* The "string(TIMESTAMP)" command now supports "%A" for full weekday
name and "%B" for full month name.
Variables
-
* A "CMAKE_DIRECTORY_LABELS" variable was added to specify labels
for all tests in a directory.

Documentation is available at:
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.10
Release notes appear below and are also published at
https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.10/release/3.10.html
Some of the more significant changes in CMake 3.10 are:
* The flang Fortran compiler is now supported, with compiler id
"Flang".
* Support for the MSVC ARM64 architecture was added. Visual Studio
2017 Update 4 and above offer an ARM64 toolchain.
* The "include_guard()" command was introduced to allow guarding

supports "DIRECTORY" and "GLOBAL" options to adjust the
corresponding include guard scope. If no options given, include
guard is similar to basic variable-based check.
* "FindMPI" received a major overhaul. It now features language specific
components, better Fortran support, and support for statically linked
MPI implementations.
* A "FindOpenACC" module was added to detect compiler support for
OpenACC. Currently only supports PGI, GNU and Cray compilers.
* The "FindOpenGL" module underwent numerous improvements. It has gained
support for GLVND and EGL on Linux. It now has import targets that
separate the OpenGL library and OpenGL contexts.
* The "GoogleTest" module gained a new command
"gtest_discover_tests()" implementing dynamic (build-time) test
discovery.
* When using "AUTOMOC" or "AUTOUIC", source files that are
"GENERATED" will be processed as well. They were ignored by
"AUTOMOC" and "AUTOUIC" in earlier releases. See policy "CMP0071".
* A "CTEST_LABELS_FOR_SUBPROJECTS" CTest module variable and CTest
script variable were added to specify a list of labels that should
be treated as subprojects by CDash. To use this value in both the
CTest module and the ctest command line Dashboard Client mode (e.g.
"ctest -S") set it in the "CTestConfig.cmake" config file.
* CPack gained a "FREEBSD" generator for FreeBSD "pkg(8)",
configured by the "CPackFreeBSD" module.
* The CPack "DEB" generator, configured by the "CPackDeb" module,
was enabled on Windows. While not fully featured (due to the lack
