Refactor the cross-compilation infrastructure to rely on the standard
CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING_EMULATOR variable instead of the custom
CROSSCOMPILING_PATH environment hack.
Key changes:
- Removed `ENVIRONMENT "${CROSSCOMPILING_PATH}"` from all test definitions.
- Updated custom commands (e.g., H5match_types, H5_gen) to invoke the
emulator explicitly when cross-compiling.
- Updated ConfigureChecks.cmake and HDF5UseFortran.cmake to enable
`try_run` checks when an emulator is defined.
- Added config/toolchain/mingw-w64-x86-64-wine.sh wrapper to automatically
locate MinGW runtime libraries (like libgfortran) for Wine execution.
- Cleaned up toolchain files to remove hardcoded emulator paths, deferring
configuration to the build environment.
Behavior:
Modify HDF5UseFortran.cmake to handle cross-compilation by providing default KINDs and sizes when CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING is true.
Default values for INTEGER and REAL KINDs and their sizes are set when cross-compiling.
Error messages are adjusted to reflect cross-compilation scenarios.
Logic:
Conditional checks added for CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING to determine if default values should be used.
Default values include INTEGER KINDs {1,2,4,8,16} and REAL KINDs {4,8,10,16}.
Default sizes for native kinds are set to 4 for INTEGER and REAL, and 8 for DOUBLE PRECISION when cross-compiling.
Misc:
Adjustments to verbose messages to indicate when defaults are used during cross-compilation.
Renamed all HDF5 examples build options from H5EX_* to H5EXAMPLE_* to better distinguish them from library options when building examples alongside the library.
Updated all CMake files, including:
Main examples CMakeLists.txt files
CMake configuration files in config/ directory
CMake preset files
Updated documentation files to reflect new option names
This update systematically renames variables across 2.0+ CMake files in the HDF5Examples directory and configuration templates. The goal is to change variables from sounding like build "options" (e.g., HDF5_BUILD_TOOLS, HDF5_ENABLE_PARALLEL) to reflecting library "state" (e.g., what features the installed library provides).
Implemented missing --help/-h, -c, -echo and -shlib/-noshlib options
Added new -nohl option to avoid building and linking against
high-level HDF5 libraries if desired
Implemented adding of HDF5 installation library directory to rpath of
resulting executable/library and added new -norpath option to avoid
this behavior if desired
Added parsing of HDF5_USE_SHLIB environment variable to determine
whether to link against shared or static HDF5 libraries
Added parsing of HDF5_PKG_CONFIG_ARGS environment variable to separate
pkg-config-specific options from compiler-specific options and prevent
conflicts
