CMake 3.14 and later prefer to run it +in the build directory and use :variable:`CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR` as the +``WORKING_DIRECTORY`` of its :command:`add_custom_command` invocation. +This ensures that any implicitly generated file is written to the build +tree rather than the source. + +This policy provides compatibility for projects that have not been updated +to expect the new behavior. + +The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is for ``BISON_TARGET`` to use +the current source directory for the ``WORKING_DIRECTORY`` and where +to generate implicit files. The ``NEW`` behavior of this policy is to +use the current binary directory for the ``WORKING_DIRECTORY`` and where +to generate implicit files. + +This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.14. Use the +:command:`cmake_policy` command to set it to ``OLD`` or ``NEW`` explicitly. +Unlike most policies, CMake version |release| does *not* warn +when this policy is not set and simply uses ``OLD`` behavior. + +.. include:: DEPRECATED.txt |
