# FindMatlab
# ----------
#
# Finds Matlab or Matlab Compiler Runtime (MCR) and provides Matlab tools,
# libraries and compilers to CMake.
#
# This package primary purpose is to find the libraries associated with Matlab
# or the MCR in order to be able to build Matlab extensions (mex files). It
# can also be used:
#
# * to run specific commands in Matlab in case Matlab is available
# * for declaring Matlab unit test
# * to retrieve various information from Matlab (mex extensions, versions and
#   release queries, ...)
#
# The module supports the following components:
#
# * ``MX_LIBRARY``, ``ENG_LIBRARY`` and ``MAT_LIBRARY``: respectively the ``MX``,
#   ``ENG`` and ``MAT`` libraries of Matlab
# * ``MAIN_PROGRAM`` the Matlab binary program. Note that this component is not
#   available on the MCR version, and will yield an error if the MCR is found
#   instead of the regular Matlab installation.
# * ``MEX_COMPILER`` the MEX compiler.
# * ``SIMULINK`` the Simulink environment.
#
# .. note::
#
#   The version given to the :command:`find_package` directive is the Matlab
#   **version**, which should not be confused with the Matlab *release* name
#   (eg. `R2014`).
#   The :command:`matlab_get_version_from_release_name` and
#   :command:`matlab_get_release_name_from_version` provide a mapping
#   between the release name and the version.
#
# The variable :variable:`Matlab_ROOT_DIR` may be specified in order to give
# the path of the desired Matlab version. Otherwise, the behaviour is platform
# specific:
#
# * Windows: The installed versions of Matlab/MCR are retrieved from the
#   Windows registry
# * OS X: The installed versions of Matlab/MCR are given by the MATLAB
#   default installation paths in ``/Application``. If no such application is
#   found, it falls back to the one that might be accessible from the ``PATH``.
# * Unix: The desired Matlab should be accessible from the ``PATH``. This does
#   not work for MCR installation and :variable:`Matlab_ROOT_DIR` should be
#   specified on this platform.
#
# Additional information is provided when :variable:`MATLAB_FIND_DEBUG` is set.
# When a Matlab/MCR installation is found automatically and the ``MATLAB_VERSION``
# is not given, the version is queried from Matlab directly (on Windows this
# may pop up a Matlab window) or from the MCR installation.
#
# The mapping of the release names and the version of Matlab is performed by
# defining pairs (name, version).  The variable
# :variable:`MATLAB_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS` may be provided before the call to
# the :command:`find_package` in order to handle additional versions.
#
# A Matlab scripts can be added to the set of tests using the
# :command:`matlab_add_unit_test`. By default, the Matlab unit test framework
# will be used (>= 2013a) to run this script, but regular ``.m`` files
# returning an exit code can be used as well (0 indicating a success).
#
# Module Input Variables
# ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
#
# Users or projects may set the following variables to configure the module
# behaviour:
#
# :variable:`Matlab_ROOT_DIR`
#   the root of the Matlab installation.
# :variable:`MATLAB_FIND_DEBUG`
#   outputs debug information
# :variable:`MATLAB_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS`

#
# Variables defined by the module
# ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
#
# Result variables
# """"""""""""""""

#   ``TRUE`` if the Matlab installation is found, ``FALSE``
#   otherwise. All variable below are defined if Matlab is found.
# ``Matlab_ROOT_DIR``
#   the final root of the Matlab installation determined by the FindMatlab
#   module.
# ``Matlab_MAIN_PROGRAM``
#   the Matlab binary program. Available only if the component ``MAIN_PROGRAM``
#   is given in the :command:`find_package` directive.
# ``Matlab_INCLUDE_DIRS``
#  the path of the Matlab libraries headers
# ``Matlab_MEX_LIBRARY``
#   library for mex, always available.
# ``Matlab_MX_LIBRARY``
#   mx library of Matlab (arrays). Available only if the component
#   ``MX_LIBRARY`` has been requested.
# ``Matlab_ENG_LIBRARY``
#   Matlab engine library. Available only if the component ``ENG_LIBRARY``
#   is requested.
# ``Matlab_MAT_LIBRARY``
#   Matlab matrix library. Available only if the component ``MAT_LIBRARY``
#   is requested.
# ``Matlab_LIBRARIES``
#   the whole set of libraries of Matlab
# ``Matlab_MEX_COMPILER``
#   the mex compiler of Matlab. Currently not used.
#   Available only if the component ``MEX_COMPILER`` is asked
#
# Cached variables
# """"""""""""""""
#
# ``Matlab_MEX_EXTENSION``
#   the extension of the mex files for the current platform (given by Matlab).
# ``Matlab_ROOT_DIR``
#   the location of the root of the Matlab installation found. If this value
#   is changed by the user, the result variables are recomputed.
#
# Provided macros
# ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
#
# :command:`matlab_get_version_from_release_name`
#   returns the version from the release name
# :command:`matlab_get_release_name_from_version`
#   returns the release name from the Matlab version
#
# Provided functions
# ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
#
# :command:`matlab_add_mex`
#   adds a target compiling a MEX file.
# :command:`matlab_add_unit_test`
#   adds a Matlab unit test file as a test to the project.
# :command:`matlab_extract_all_installed_versions_from_registry`
#   parses the registry for all Matlab versions. Available on Windows only.
#   The part of the registry parsed is dependent on the host processor
# :command:`matlab_get_all_valid_matlab_roots_from_registry`
#   returns all the possible Matlab or MCR paths, according to a previously
#   given list. Only the existing/accessible paths are kept. This is mainly
#   useful for the searching all possible Matlab installation.
# :command:`matlab_get_mex_suffix`
#   returns the suffix to be used for the mex files
#   (platform/architecture dependent)
# :command:`matlab_get_version_from_matlab_run`
#   returns the version of Matlab/MCR, given the full directory of the Matlab/MCR
#   installation path.
#
#
# Known issues
# ^^^^^^^^^^^^
#
# **Symbol clash in a MEX target**
#   By default, every symbols inside a MEX
#   file defined with the command :command:`matlab_add_mex` have hidden
#   visibility, except for the entry point. This is the default behaviour of
#   the MEX compiler, which lowers the risk of symbol collision between the
#   libraries shipped with Matlab, and the libraries to which the MEX file is
#   linking to. This is also the default on Windows platforms.
#
#   However, this is not sufficient in certain case, where for instance your
#   MEX file is linking against libraries that are already loaded by Matlab,
#   even if those libraries have different SONAMES.
#   A possible solution is to hide the symbols of the libraries to which the
#   MEX target is linking to. This can be achieved in GNU GCC compilers with
#   the linker option ``-Wl,--exclude-libs,ALL``.
#
# **Tests using GPU resources**
#   in case your MEX file is using the GPU and
#   in order to be able to run unit tests on this MEX file, the GPU resources
#   should be properly released by Matlab. A possible solution is to make
#   Matlab aware of the use of the GPU resources in the session, which can be
#   performed by a command such as ``D = gpuDevice()`` at the beginning of
#   the test script (or via a fixture).
#
#
# Reference
# ^^^^^^^^^
#
# .. variable:: Matlab_ROOT_DIR
#
#    The root folder of the Matlab installation. If set before the call to
#    :command:`find_package`, the module will look for the components in that
#    path. If not set, then an automatic search of Matlab
#    will be performed. If set, it should point to a valid version of Matlab.
#
# .. variable:: MATLAB_FIND_DEBUG
#
#    If set, the lookup of Matlab and the intermediate configuration steps are
#    outputted to the console.
#
# .. variable:: MATLAB_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS
#
#   If set, specifies additional versions of Matlab that may be looked for.
#   The variable should be a list of strings, organised by pairs of release
#   name and versions, such as follows::
#
#     set(MATLAB_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS
#         "release_name1=corresponding_version1"
#         "release_name2=corresponding_version2"
#         ...
#         )
#
#   Example::
#
#     set(MATLAB_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS
#         "R2013b=8.2"
#         "R2013a=8.1"
#         "R2012b=8.0")
#
#   The order of entries in this list matters when several versions of
#   Matlab are installed. The priority is set according to the ordering in
#   this list.

# .. command:: matlab_add_unit_test
#
#   Adds a Matlab unit test to the test set of cmake/ctest.
#   This command requires the component ``MAIN_PROGRAM`` and hence is not
#   available for an MCR installation.
#
#   The unit test uses the Matlab unittest framework (default, available
#   starting Matlab 2013b+) except if the option ``NO_UNITTEST_FRAMEWORK``
#   is given.
#
#   The function expects one Matlab test script file to be given.
#   In the case ``NO_UNITTEST_FRAMEWORK`` is given, the unittest script file
#   should contain the script to be run, plus an exit command with the exit
#   value. This exit value will be passed to the ctest framework (0 success,
#   non 0 failure). Additional arguments accepted by :command:`add_test` can be
#   passed through ``TEST_ARGS`` (eg. ``CONFIGURATION <config> ...``).
#
#   ::
#
#     matlab_add_unit_test(
#         NAME <name>
#         UNITTEST_FILE matlab_file_containing_unittest.m

#         [TEST_ARGS arg1 [arg2 ...]]
#         [NO_UNITTEST_FRAMEWORK]
#         )
#
#   The function arguments are:
#
#   ``NAME``
#     name of the unittest in ctest.
#   ``UNITTEST_FILE``
#     the matlab unittest file. Its path will be automatically
#     added to the Matlab path.
#   ``CUSTOM_TEST_COMMAND``
#     Matlab script command to run as the test.
#     If this is not set, then the following is run:
#     ``runtests('matlab_file_name'), exit(max([ans(1,:).Failed]))``
#     where ``matlab_file_name`` is the ``UNITTEST_FILE`` without the extension.
#   ``UNITTEST_PRECOMMAND``
#     Matlab script command to be ran before the file
#     containing the test (eg. GPU device initialisation based on CMake
#     variables).
#   ``TIMEOUT``
#     the test timeout in seconds. Defaults to 180 seconds as the
#     Matlab unit test may hang.
#   ``ADDITIONAL_PATH``
#     a list of paths to add to the Matlab path prior to
#     running the unit test.
#   ``MATLAB_ADDITIONAL_STARTUP_OPTIONS``
#     a list of additional option in order
#     to run Matlab from the command line.
#     ``-nosplash -nodesktop -nodisplay`` are always added.
#   ``TEST_ARGS``
#     Additional options provided to the add_test command. These
#     options are added to the default options (eg. "CONFIGURATIONS Release")
#   ``NO_UNITTEST_FRAMEWORK``
#     when set, indicates that the test should not
#     use the unittest framework of Matlab (available for versions >= R2013a).
#   ``WORKING_DIRECTORY``
#     This will be the working directory for the test. If specified it will
#     also be the output directory used for the log file of the test run.
#     If not specified the temporary directory ``${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/Matlab`` will
#     be used as the working directory and the log location.
