Remove cmake_minimum_required from toolchain files #412
base: main
Are you sure you want to change the base?
Conversation
This command is generally not included in toolchain files. It is used in project configuration files that will consume the toolchain file. Also, such a low value triggers warnings, support for <3.5.0 is being removed from CMake.

The android NDK toolchain file does seem to include a cmake_minimum_version
: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/ndk/+/master/build/cmake/android.toolchain.cmake#35
Are you sure this is not supposed to be here?
Perhaps we could bump to to 3.6 like the android one to avoid the warning you mention?

Yes, it is not supposed to be there. Was it originally included for a specific reason?
See the examples in the official CMake documentation. Or these examples.
The warning I pointed to is one example of unintended consequences, but there are more. CMake changes its behavior based on policies, which are impacted by a cmake_minimum_required
call.

That line as been there since the initial commit (c80964d).
I don't know it was included, it looks like we would have to go back to yury's wasmception
to find out why.
It sounds like you know what you are talking about cmake-wise, and also emscripten's cmake does not specify cmake_minimum_required
so I'm tempted to just approve this.
Lets wait for @pchickey to chime in though.

Thank you for your attention and consideration.
