There is a new find module since cmake 3.12. Cmake 3.27 will start
emitting warnings if the old modules are still in use.
Current implementation supports both. As soon as we can bump our minimal
cmake version to 3.12, the old support code can be dropped as well.
With XCode 14 or newer CMake tries to use the "new build system" which has a
requirement that if two targets depend on the same generated file one of them
must depend on the other. This commit adds reduntant dependencies to satisfy
this requirement.
The original merge was of a PR based on master into maint, bringing
along all of the development changes in master along with it. We don't
want that so the merge was reverted and the PR's two changes
cherry-picked in. That fixed maint, but then the next regular merge of
maint into master naturally included that revert commit undoing the
changes in master. Not so good. Reverting the revert, this commit,
restores the changes, albeit with messed up history.
This reverts commit 1a9fcfefad because
on MinGW cmake complains about the paths in pkgconfig files. This can
be addressed by using the MSYS2 cmake instead of the MINGW32 one, but
that requires some other changes... and there's also a path separator
bug in that version of FindPkgConfig.cmake.
This simplifies usage of GoogleTest, since independent handling of
GTEST_LIB and GTEST_INCLUDE_DIR is not necessary anymore.
Additionally CMake creates a dependency now between target gtest and all
test applications using it. This improves build process when building
GoogleTest from source code. When any test application is built,
GoogleTest library is automatically rebuilt if necessary now for
instance.
Currently when compiling GoogleTest from source code, source file
gtest_main.cc from GoogleTest repository is not compiled into any
library as in GoogleTest repository, where it is compiled into
libgtest_main.a. Instead gtest_main.cc is added to source file list
GTEST_SRC, which is then added to the list of source files of every
single GoogleTest based test application.
To simplify this gtest_main.cc is added to the source file list of
target gtest now. Additionally GTEST_SRC is merged into
lib_gtest_SOURCES, since both variables defined source files for
GoogleTest libraries.
Now target gtest generates library libgtest.a, which already contains
the main function from source file gtest_main.cc. This is different to
GoogleTest build system, where both are separated into two independent
libraries libgtest.a and libgtest_main.a.
Instead of random locations only occasionally related to the
corresponding source.
Includes renaming libgnucash/engine/test/test-extras.scm and
gnucash/report/report-system/test/test-extras.scm to avoid a
naming conflict.
The swig 3.0 generated python wrappers trigger a warning converted into an error issued
by gcc 8.0 for using strncpy as follows:
strncpy(buff, "swig_ptr: ", 10);
The reason is this call will truncate the trailing null byte from the string.
This appears to have been fixed in swig master already but that's not released yet
so let disable the warning when compiling the swig wrappers until it is.
When building from git it will add targets to generate the swig files.
When building from tarball it will just point at the generated source
files from the tarball.

- the two dist_add_... macros now both take a list of file names
as argument so more files can be added at once to the dist tarball.
- dist_add_generated now creates the right target by itself. There's
no need to pass one any more
- make the swig generated *.py module files explicit output files
- change a couple of custom_targets into custom_commands. The only
reason they were defined as targets was to ensure they got built
before the dist tarball. This is now properly handled by the
dist_add_... macros.
- correctly handle dependency on swig-runtime.h (using OBJECT_DEPENDS
was not the way to do it according to that property's help page)
cmake with unix makefiles fails to resolve dist dependencies
added from COPY_FROM_BUILD if these dependencies aren't built yet.
This commit replaces the COPY_FROM_BUILD based logic with two new functions
'dist_add_configured' and 'dist_add_generated' to indicate which files should
be included in the dist tarball. The latter also adds a target level dependency
to the dist tarball custom command. Hence the former should
be used for files that get generated during a cmake run while the latter
should be used for files generated as the result of a 'make/ninja-build' run
(like files for which an add_custom_command rule exists).
Note: this commit also temporarily disables the dist target when building
from a tarball (and hence it won't be tested in distcheck either). This
will be handled in a future commit.
It is split into
- /libgnucash (for the non-gui bits)
- /gnucash (for the gui)
- /common (misc source files used by both)
- /bindings (currently only holds python bindings)
This is the first step in restructuring the code. It will need much
more fine tuning later on.
