The CMake 2.8.12 release candidate stream co= ntinues!
This is the last RC unless a critical, must-fix issue is found.
You can find the source and binaries here:
= http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.8/?C=3DM;O=3DD

Some of the notable changes in this release are:

- Introduced target_compile_options command
=A0 - Specify compile options to use when compiling a given target. Support= s
=A0 =A0 PUBLIC, PRIVATE, and INTERFACE options. PRIVATE and PUBLIC items wi= ll
=A0 =A0 populate the COMPILE_OPTIONS property of the target. PUBLIC and
=A0 =A0 INTERFACE items will populate the INTERFACE_COMPILE_OPTIONS
property of the target.
=A0 =A0 Supports generator expressions.
- Introduced add_compile_options command
=A0 - Adds options to the compiler command line for sources in the
current directory and below.
=A0 =A0 Supports generator expressions.
- Introduced CMake Policy 21:
=A0 =A0 - It is now an error to add relative paths to the INCLUDE_DIRECTORI= ES target
=A0 =A0 =A0 property.
- Introduced CMake Policy 22:
=A0 - Target properties matching
(IMPORTED_)LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES(_<CONFIG>) are
=A0 =A0 ignored, and will no longer be populated by the
target_link_libraries command.
=A0 =A0 It is now an error to populate the properties directly in user code= . Instead
=A0 =A0 use the INTERFACE keyword with target_link_libraries, or the target= property
=A0 =A0 INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES.
- Introduced CMake Policy 23:
=A0 - Plain and keyword target_link_libraries signatures cannot be mixed for a given
=A0 =A0 target when this policy is enabled. Once PUBLIC,PRIVATE, or
INTERFACE keywords
=A0 =A0 are used, all subsequent target_link_libraries calls to the target = must use
=A0 =A0 one of these keywords.
- Introduced: Support for RPATH under OSX
=A0 - Please see the blog post by Clinton Stimpson about using RPATH on OSX=
=A0 =A0 (http://www.kitware.com/blog/home/post/510)
