Before this patch, `pkg-config` was used for `UNIX` builds only (with
a few exceptions like wolfSSL, libssh, gsasl, libuv). This patch extends
`pkg-config` use to all envs except: `MSVC` without vcpkg. Meaning MSVC
with vcpkg will now use it. Also mingw on Windows.
Also apply the new condition to options where `pkg-config` was used
unconditionally (= for all targets). These are:
`-DCURL_USE_WOLFSSL=ON`, `-DCURL_USE_LIBSSH=ON`,
`-DCURL_USE_GSASL=ON` and `-DCURL_USE_LIBUV=ON`
This patch may still cause regressions for cross-builds (e.g. mingw
cross-build from Unix) and potentially other cases. If that happens, we
recommend using some of these methods to explicitly disable `pkg-config`
when using CMake:
- CMake option: `-DPKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE=`
(or `-DPKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE=nonexistent` or similar)
This is similar to the (curl-specific) `PKG_CONFIG` env for autotools.
- export env: `PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR=`
(or `PKG_CONFIG_PATH`, `PKG_CONFIG_SYSROOT_DIR`,
or the CMake-specific `PKG_CONFIG`)
We may improve control over this in a future patch, also allowing opting
in MSVC (without vcpkg).

- quote string literals.
In the hope it improves syntax-highlighting and readability.
- use lowercase, underscore-prefixed local var names.
As a hint for scope, to help readability.
- prefer `pkg_search_module` (over `pkg_check_modules`).
They are the same, but `pkg_search_module` stops searching
at the first hit.
- more `IN LISTS` in `foreach()`.
- OtherTests.cmake: clear `CMAKE_EXTRA_INCLUDE_FILES` after use.
- add `PROJECT_LABEL` for http/client and unit test targets.
- sync `Find*` module comments and formatting.
- drop a few local variables.
- drop bogus `CARES_LIBRARIES` from comment.
- unquote numeric literal.
Follow-up to acbc6b703f#14197Closes#14388
- also detect nghttp2 via `pkg-config` to match nghttp3 detection
and autotools.
- enable nghttp2 by default to match autotools.
Cherry-picked from #14097Closes#14136
Add the static library name, nghttp2_static as a name to search.
This provides cmake parity with the winbuild Makefile.vc allowing
the cmake build to find and allow the link to static nghttp2 library.
- they are mostly pointless in all major jurisdictions
- many big corporations and projects already don't use them
- saves us from pointless churn
- git keeps history for us
- the year range is kept in COPYING
checksrc is updated to allow non-year using copyright statements
Closes#10205
Add licensing and copyright information for all files in this repository. This
either happens in the file itself as a comment header or in the file
`.reuse/dep5`.
This commit also adds a Github workflow to check pull requests and adapts
copyright.pl to the changes.
Closes#8869
Reported by the new script 'scripts/copyright.pl'. The script has a
regex whitelist for the files that don't need copyright headers.
Removed three (mostly usesless) README files from docs/
Closes#5141
- remove check for unsupported old CMake versions
- do not link to c-ares library twice
- modernize custom Find modules
- FindLibSSH2:
- pass version to FPHSA to show it in the output
- use LIBSSH2_VERSION define to extract the version number in
one shot. This variable exists in the header for 10 years.
- remove unneeded code
- FindNGHTTP2.cmake:
- drop needless FPHSA argument
- mark found variables as advanced
- FindNSS.cmake:
- show version number
- FindCARES.cmake:
- drop default paths
- use FPHSA instead of checking things by hand
- remove needless explict variable dereference
- simplify count_true()
- allow all policies up to version 3.16 to be set to NEW
- do not rerun check for -Wstrict-aliasing=3 every time
In contrast to every other compiler flag this has a = in it, which CMake
can't have in a variable name.
- only read the interesting strings from curlver.h
