The generator expressions here are actually unnecessary, now that I think about it.

This should fix #745

Remove 2.6-isms
Remove 2.8-isms
Bump CMake minimum version to 3.4

Disable some options when used as a subdirectory

Use `CONFIGURE_DEPENDS` with `file(GLOB)` when possible

Backport CMake 3.15's MSVC_RUNTIME_LIBRARY setting.
Set all compile options as generator expressions.
Set all find-package files to be installed to the correct file.

Remove `export(PACKAGE)`, as this has been deprecated.
Remove fat binary support
Remove manual setting of iPhone settings. These should be set by parent
projects.
Remove use of ExternalProject for a local use
Conditionally remove format target unless clang-format is found

* CMake: Prefix options with "YAML" and hide platform-specific options

When including yaml-cpp as a subproject, some option names can conflict with other projects.

(1) Make sure the yaml-cpp options are prefixed with YAML
(2) Hide platform-specific options when possible to avoid cluttering the cmake option list

* Update docs for change from BUILD_SHARED_LIBS to YAML_BUILD_SHARED_LIBS

Setting CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD and CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_REQUIRED directly is problematic when including yaml-cpp as a subproject.

The proper way is to set these per-target.

This sets the other variables:

 https://cmake.org/cmake/help/latest/command/project.html

* Add compilation flags: -Wshadow -Weffc++ -pedantic -pedantic-errors
* Delete implicit copy & move constructors & assignment operators
  in classes with pointer data members.
* An exception to the above: Add default copy & move constructors &
  assignment operators for the Binary class.
* Convert boolean RegEx operators to binary operators.
* Initialize all members in all classes in ctors.
* Let default ctor delegate to the converting ctor in
  Binary and RegEx
* Don't change any tests except regex_test (as a result of the change
  to binary operators).

Note: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1544675 makes
-Weffc++ report a false positive in "include/yaml-cpp/node/impl.h".

NDK now uses ninja for building but yaml-cpp would emit the “ninja: error: build.ninja:326: bad $-escape (literal $ must be written as $$)” error due to syntax error in the generated build.ninja file. Related issue: https://github.com/jbeder/yaml-cpp/issues/630

Let CMake handle the default optimizations for various configurations. We don't need to override them. In fact, overriding them makes it impossible for users to override them themselves.

- Option defaults to ON and setting it to OFF, disables install
  target generation

Roll-forward of c90c08cc "Revert "Improvements to CMake buildsystem (#563)""

NEW:

* Replace CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR with CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR

Fixes #612 when yaml-cpp is used as a git submodule.

ORIGINAL:

* Move enable_testing() into proper place

* Added CMake's checks for C++11 standards

Raised minimal version of CMake to 3.1, since on old systems there no
decent compilers that supports c++11.

Closes #377.

* Externalize googletest project

Externalize gtest to avoid installation, fixes #539.

* Remove defined cmake_policies

CMP0012 - OLD marked as deprecated for >=cmake-3.1 and will be removed
CMP0015 - does not affect to build process
CMP0042 - already NEW for >=cmake-3.1

Fixes #505

* Fix compiling in Windows MSVC

This reverts commit 3e33bb31.

The original commit broke the build (#612) when yaml-cpp is used as a git submodule.

* Move enable_testing() into proper place

* Added CMake's checks for C++11 standards

Raised minimal version of CMake to 3.1, since on old systems there no
decent compilers that supports c++11.

CMP0042 - already NEW for >=cmake-3.1

Fixes #505

* Fix compiling in Windows MSVC

It was incorrectly left at 0.6.0 when 0.6.1 was released, so this needs to be done to make it consistent between the tagged version and the CMake version.

Don't build tests if the confusingly named YAML_CPP_BUILD_TOOLS is ON.
Instead, add a new option that controls only if the tests are built.
(Also, default tests to OFF.)

Remove use of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX when specifying install destinations.
It is preferred that install destinations are specified as relative
paths, not absolute paths. This is also needed to create relocatable
installs, and thus should fix #526.

Don't install LIBRARIES on Windows to `bin`; they belong in `lib`. (This
appears to have been done in a mistaken attempt to install the DLL's to
`bin`, which do need to be there, but RUNTIME DESTINATION already takes
care of this.)

Fix compiler flags for MSVC_STATIC_RT=OFF builds

CMake policy CMP0042 changes the default value of the MACOSX_RPATH target property to TRUE, therefore setting the directory portion of the install_name field of a shared library to be @rpath on OS X.

This adds yaml-cpp-config.cmake, yaml-cpp-config-version.cmake, and
yaml-cpp-targets.cmake to the cmake install. As a result, cmake's
find_package can easily find yaml-cpp for software that depends on
yaml-cpp.

Add code to install cmake files to $CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX/CMake on
Windows, which is the de-facto standard.

Closes jbeder/yaml-cpp#336 jbeder/yaml-cpp#127
