The more general CMake way to handle library suffixing is to set
CMAKE_<CONFIG>_POSTFIX, so setting the Debug output suffix name should
be more correctly done by the caller or CMake configurer by setting
the desired value in CMAKE_DEBUG_POSTFIX.
We desire for jsoncpp to compile and be readily available
with older versions of cmake. The use of newer cmake
commands requires conditional statements so that older
strategies can be used with older versions of cmake.
Resolves: #1018
This patch fixes a build issue on CMake, presumably due to the new glibc
having a features.h include file. This patch renames our features.h file
to avoid a name collision.
* Cleanup versioning strategy
Currently, versioning is a mess. CMake and Meson have seperate build
version number storage locations, with no way of knowing you need to
have both. Plus, due to recent revisions the amalgamate script is broken
unless you build first, and may still be broken afterwards.
This PR fixes some issues with versioning, and adds comments clarifying
what has to be done when doing a release.
* Run clang format
* Update SOVERSION....

* The GNUInstallDirs module is more idiomatic and supported by
Kitware upstream, whereas the current directories are not
standardised across CMake-using packages. Using CMake native
mechanisms is better than reinventing the wheel, as it makes
using the build system more uniform across the ecosystem
* Use CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD to force C++11
* Require CMake 3.1.0 at a minimum
* Fixed lower/UPPERcase format for function/macro calls
* Fixed indents by replacing tabs with 4 spaces
* Clean up closing statements for if conditions, functions, macros,
and other entities. Newer versions of CMake do not require you to
redundantly respecify the parameters to the opening arguments.
The TARGET_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES from inside the
IF(JSONCPP_WITH_CMAKE_PACKAGE) block was removed, since it only needs to
be set once.
In addition the CMAKE_VERSION check was simplified.
Fixed two build issues:
- JsonCPP currently doesn’t compile for Solaris due to platform
differences with ‘isfinite’ function. Fixed by adding proper include
and define for Solaris.
- JsonCPP currently doesn’t compile for GCC version 4.1.2 and earlier
due to use of ‘-Werror=*’ compile flag, which was introduced in a later
version. Fixed by adding version check to only add this flag on
supported versions of GCC.

BUILD_SHARED_LIBS is a standard CMake argument that serves the purpose
of the custom JSONCPP_LIB_BUILD_SHARED. For now we force JSONCPP_LIB_BUILD_SHARED
to true if BUILD_SHARED_LIBS was defined.
Workaround for #51.
Igor Okulist and Damien Buhl (Patch #14). Added support for running
tests and building with DLL on Windows.
- added missing JSON_API
- Visual Studio DLL: suppressed warning "C4251: <data member>: <type>
needs to have dll-interface to be used by..." via pragma push/pop
in json-cpp headers.
- New header json/version.h now contains version number macros
(JSONCPP_VERSION_MAJOR, JSONCPP_VERSION_MINOR, JSONCPP_VERSION_PATCH
and JSONCPP_VERSION_HEXA). While this header is generated by CMake,
it is committed to ease build with alternate build system
(CMake only update the file when it changes avoid issues with VCS).
