There are two reasons for this:
1) It is highly unlikely that someone has use for this header,
which has no customization points and only provides simplest
possible main, and cannot link the static library which also
provides a default main implementation.
2) It being a header was causing extra complications with
the convenience headers, and our checking script. This would either
require special handling in the checking script, or would break user's
of the main convenience header.
All in all, it is simpler and better in the long term to remove it,
than to fix its problems.
This describes the reality better, as it also links in the rest
of Catch2.
The on-disk name of the static library remains just `Catch2Main`,
as that is what it is -- single main function -- and on-disk artifacts
cannot describe link dependencies.
Because some of the tooling used by Catch2 does not properly support
version postfixes, such as `preview-1`, we will report the
in-development version is `v3.0.0`, and the first real release will
have to be `v3.0.1`.
Closes#1824
@ThijsWithaar is responsible for giving me the idea, but his PR
had couple of things that meant it was simpler to rewrite it than
to fix and merge it.
Supersedes and closes#1599
This is because otherwise the installations paths provided via
GNUInstallDirs become messed up and parts of the installation
package will end up in the wrong place.
Also it doesn't make much sense to force dependees to also install
our header alongside them.
Closes#1373
This means
* a new cmake option, `CATCH_BUILD_EXTRA_TESTS`, that conditionally
includes the ExtraTests subfolder
* building and running them on some of the Travis build images
* An example configuration test
In the future these should be extended to cover most of the
configuration options in Catch2, but this is a start.
