Introduction
|
||
|
|
============
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Policies in CMake are used to preserve backward compatible behavior
|
||
|
|
across multiple releases. When a new policy is introduced, newer CMake
|
||
|
|
versions will begin to warn about the backward compatible behavior. It
|
||
|
|
is possible to disable the warning by explicitly requesting the OLD, or
|
||
|
|
backward compatible behavior using the :command:`cmake_policy` command.
|
||
|
|
It is also possible to request ``NEW``, or non-backward compatible behavior
|
||
|
|
for a policy, also avoiding the warning. Each policy can also be set to
|
||
|
|
either ``NEW`` or ``OLD`` behavior explicitly on the command line with the
|
||
|
|
:variable:`CMAKE_POLICY_DEFAULT_CMP<NNNN>` variable.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The :command:`cmake_minimum_required` command does more than report an
|
||
|
|
error if a too-old version of CMake is used to build a project. It
|
||
|
|
also sets all policies introduced in that CMake version or earlier to
|
||
|
|
``NEW`` behavior. To manage policies without increasing the minimum required
|
||
|
|
CMake version, the :command:`if(POLICY)` command may be used:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. code-block:: cmake
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
if(POLICY CMP0990)
|
||
|
|
cmake_policy(SET CMP0990 NEW)
|
||
|
|
endif()
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This has the effect of using the ``NEW`` behavior with newer CMake releases which
|
||
|
|
users may be using and not issuing a compatibility warning.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The setting of a policy is confined in some cases to not propagate to the
|
||
|
|
parent scope. For example, if the files read by the :command:`include` command
|
||
|
|
or the :command:`find_package` command contain a use of :command:`cmake_policy`,
|
||
|
|
that policy setting will not affect the caller by default. Both commands accept
|
||
|
|
an optional ``NO_POLICY_SCOPE`` keyword to control this behavior.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The :variable:`CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED_VERSION` variable may also be used
|
||
|
|
to determine whether to report an error on use of deprecated macros or
|
||
|
|
functions.
