    cmake: Add CMake build system · 2606b292
    Roger Leigh authored
        
    - Reimplement the entirely of the autoconf, automake, libtool
      and pkg-config logic, including all feature tests
    - Also include the MSVC logic missing from the above
    - Include a full set of unit tests to reimplement the logic
      in sanityTest.pl and the data in sanityTest_ExpectedResult.logs
    - Obtain versioning information from configure.ac and
      version.incl
    - Generate and install exported CMake configuration for use by
      downstream projects using CMake, to replace FindXercesC.cmake
      provided by the CMake upstream
    - Install documentation
    - Add targets to regenerate the HTML manual and the Doxygen
      API reference portably, replacing the shell script and batch
      file for generating the manual
    - Add targets for the documentation source files and
      substitute sources so that they are visible and editable in
      an IDE
    - Library versioning continues to use the existing libtool
      naming and numbering conventions on Unix platforms:
      On Unix, the name has a -3.1 suffix before the library
      extension to match the libtool -release versioning behaviour.
      The symlink remains xerces-c for build time linking
    - Library versioning continues to use the existing Visual
      Studio project file conventions on Windows:
      On Windows, the .lib and .dll names (and associated .exp, .ilk
      and .pdb files) use -3[D] and -3_1[D] suffixes
        
    This will allow building with any supported build system on any
    UNIX-like platform or upon Windows, as an alternative to the GNU
    autotools and MSVC version-specific project and solution files
    which will behave consistently across all platforms.
        
    The only feature of autoconf and automake which is not converted
    is "make dist", and that's absolutely possible should it be
    desired.
