BEGINRELEASENOTES

  • Upgrade the cmake configuration of LCIO to the newer target based approach. That should make it easier to use LCIO as a dependency for other packages. Additionally it should become easier to remove quite a bit of cmake macro code that took charge of the dependency management, since that can now be handled by plain cmake.
  • Bump the minimum cmake version to 3.14

ENDRELEASENOTES

Fixes #133

  • Check that the "legacy variables" that are currently exported are really enough for downstream packages to use LCIO
    • Successfully built Marlin on top of this.
  • Check which cmake macros have become obsolete and remove them
    • MacroCheckPackageVersion.h is still used by FindCLHEP.cmake so that would need to be touched as well. Keeping it for the moment.
  • Check if all the build options that are available still work
  • TODOs from CMake configuration overhaul #133
    • Use FindPython
    • Make BUILD_TESTING behave as expected
  • root dict generation. At least avoid re-generation of these every build even when nothing changed.
