xAODViews CMake Cleanup, master branch (2020.05.15.)

Attila Krasznahorkay requested to merge akraszna/athena:xAODViewsCMakeCleanup-master-20200515 into master

With !32081 (closed) finally concluding, I'm now splitting it into multiple independent and (hopefully) manageable MRs.

In this update I cleaned the build configuration of xAODViews by:

  • Declaring an interface library (xAODViewsLib) in it;
  • Removing its non-existent (direct) dependence on ROOT;
  • Updating its dictionary (xAODViewsDict) to use the newly defined interface library.

The only client of xAODViews is/was xAODViewsCnv. Which didn't just have a horrific CMake configuration, but it doesn't/didn't even have the correct name. 😦 So now I:

  • Renamed the package to xAODViewsAthenaPool, so that it would be in sync with the naming conventions of all of the other xAOD packages;
  • Greatly simplified the package's build configuration with the help of the newly defined xAODViewsLib library.

Pinging @ssnyder for information purposes. 😉
