Some things worth mentioning:
- That version contains commits we had cherry picked on our submodule.
- There's a patch on top with a fix for the new process spawning used on
version 1.9.0. That has already been applied to upstream's master, but not
released yet.
- This patch also does necessary changes on our build system in order to
accommodate the upgrade. Basically:
- Use full task class names when calling create_task().
- Use always_run class attribute instead of the decorator, which is
deprecated.
Create a new configuration task a configuration in the CMakeConfig object
changes. That allows building targets for different configurations in one waf
build run.
We need to remove CMakeCache.txt, otherwise cached variables would remain the
old value when they are removed from cmake_vars parameter.
We use `os.remove()` instead of `Node.delete()` because the latter removes the
node instance from its parent's children list. That makes the node be ignored
when storing persistent information after the build, thus the node signature
wouldn't be saved with that approach, which would make waf always think that
the task should be executed.
The default implementation takes into account the task's output and input
nodes. That isn't very well applicable for cmake tasks, so we define proper
uid() methods.
