| * find_package: Drop search in recent cmake-gui locationsBrad King2015-05-081-11/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The find_package command, on Windows, has always searched build trees recently visited by cmake-gui (or CMakeSetup at one time). This was done when the command was created with the intention of simplifying workflows involving building multiple dependent projects. However, this behavior depends on recent developer interaction and therefore can create different find results based on transient system states. It can lead to surprising results and user confusion. Since this behavior was first added CMake has gained many more search options, better error messages when a package is not found, and a package registry. The latter in particular allows projects to make their build trees available for dependent projects to find without user intervention. Therefore the originally intended workflow can be achieved in other, more stable ways. After the above evoluion of find_package we have now decided that the magic search-where-cmake-gui-was behavior does more harm than good. Drop it. We do not need a policy for this behavior change because it only affects interactive use.

| * Link libraries by full path even in implicit directoriesBrad King2015-04-091-5/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When CMP0003 was first introduced we wanted to link all libraries by full path. However, some projects had problems on platforms where find_library would find /usr/lib/libfoo.so when the project really wanted to link to /usr/lib/<arch>/libfoo.so and had been working by accident because pre-CMP0003 behavior used -lfoo to link. We first tried to address that in commit v2.6.0~440 (Teach find_library to avoid returning library paths in system directories, 2008-01-23) by returning just "foo" for libraries in implicit link directories. This caused problems for projects expecting find_library to always return a full path. We ended up using the solution in commit v2.6.0~366 (... switch library paths found in implicit link directories to use -l, 2008-01-31). However, the special case for libraries in implicit link directories has also proven problematic and confusing. Introduce policy CMP0060 to switch to linking all libraries by full path even if they are in implicit link directories. Explain in the policy documentation the factors that led to the original approach and now to this approach.

| * | Teach find_(library|file|path) to get prefixes from PATH (#15370)Brad King2015-02-194-3/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The find_package command already knows how to compute installation prefixes from PATH. Use the same approach to establish prefixes for find_library, find_file, and find_path to use to look in directories like "<prefix>/lib[/<arch>]" and "<prefix>/include" for libraries and headers. This will reduce the amount of configuration end users need to do to establish a work environment rooted under a specific prefix.
