Hi,
So I've started bringing the matrix up to date. Just to make sure I'm not
reporting documentation-changes as real changes, please take a look at the
following items and correct me where I'm wrong:
Changes from 2.8.3 to 2.8.4:
----------------------------
* get_cmake_property:
previously reported an error when property was not found, now only the result
variable is set to NOTFOUND.
* get_test_property:
Parameters "VAR" and "property" swapped in docu - I guess this was a doc-bug
in earlier versions.
Additionally, the same behaviour change as in get_cmake_property (didn't this
change in all get_*_property commands?).
* try_compile, try_run:
Mention of CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_CONFIGURATION is added to the doc for
completeness? Or was it not available before?
Changes from 2.8.4 to 2.8.5:
----------------------------
* add_custom_command, add_custom_target:
Option WORKING_DIRECTORY did not alter behaviour w.r.t relative paths, just
the doc was improved?
* find_package:
Is the support for setting a package-directory in
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Kitware\CMake\Packages\<package> (windows) or
~/.cmake/packages/<package> (unix) new, or just not that well documented
before?
* list:
I guess the scoping of the variables by list command is new?
Well, that's all for now. I'll keep asking here as new questions arise...
Cheers,
Johannes
