|
|
| A minimum required CMake version must be specified.
|
|
|
| CMake requires that projects specify the version of CMake to which
|
| they have been written. This policy has been put in place so users
|
| trying to build the project may be told when they need to update their
|
| CMake. Specifying a version also helps the project build with CMake
|
| versions newer than that specified. Use the :command:`cmake_minimum_required`
|
| command at the top of your main ``CMakeLists.txt`` file:
|
|
|
| ::
|
|
|
| cmake_minimum_required(VERSION <major>.<minor>)
|
|
|
| where ``<major>.<minor>`` is the version of CMake you want to support
|
| (such as ``3.14``). The command will ensure that at least the given
|
| version of CMake is running and help newer versions be compatible with
|
| the project. See documentation of :command:`cmake_minimum_required` for
|
| details.
|
|
|
| Note that the command invocation must appear in the ``CMakeLists.txt``
|
| file itself; a call in an included file is not sufficient. However,
|
| the :command:`cmake_policy` command may be called to set policy ``CMP0000``
|
| to ``OLD`` or ``NEW`` behavior explicitly. The ``OLD`` behavior is to
|
| silently ignore the missing invocation. The ``NEW`` behavior is to issue
|
| an error instead of a warning. An included file may set ``CMP0000``
|
| explicitly to affect how this policy is enforced for the main
|
| ``CMakeLists.txt`` file.
|
|
|
| This policy was introduced in CMake version 2.6.0.
