Enables support for the named languages in CMake. This is the same as
|
|
|
|
|
the :command:`project` command but does not create any of the extra
|

|
|
|
variables that are created by the project command.

This command must be called in file scope, not in a function call.
|
|
|
|
|
Furthermore, it must be called in the highest directory common to all
|
|
|
|
|
targets using the named language directly for compiling sources or
|
|
|
|
|
indirectly through link dependencies. It is simplest to enable all
|
|
|
|
|
needed languages in the top-level directory of a project.

The ``OPTIONAL`` keyword is a placeholder for future implementation and
|

|
|
|
does not currently work. Instead you can use the :module:`CheckLanguage`
|
|
|
|
|
module to verify support before enabling.
