2. One of my projects that used to build fine with VS 2012 + CMake 2.8.10.1 fails with 2.8.11.2 and 2.8.12.RC3. It no longer generates the static .lib file from a collection of CUDA generated obj files. I will post some more details soon.</div>

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