+target_compile_features
+-----------------------
+
+Add expected compiler features to a target.
+
+::
+
+  target_compile_features(<target> <PRIVATE|PUBLIC|INTERFACE> <feature> [...])
+
+Specify compiler features required when compiling a given target.  If the
+feature is not listed in the :variable:`CMAKE_CXX_COMPILE_FEATURES` variable,
+then an error will be reported by CMake.  If the use of the feature requires
+an additional compiler flag, such as ``-std=c++11``, the flag will be added
+automatically.
+
+The ``INTERFACE``, ``PUBLIC`` and ``PRIVATE`` keywords are required to
+specify the scope of the features.  ``PRIVATE`` and ``PUBLIC`` items will
+populate the :prop_tgt:`COMPILE_FEATURES` property of ``<target>``.
+``PUBLIC`` and ``INTERFACE`` items will populate the
+:prop_tgt:`INTERFACE_COMPILE_FEATURES` property of ``<target>``.  Repeated
+calls for the same ``<target>`` append items.
+
+The named ``<target>`` must have been created by a command such as
+:command:`add_executable` or :command:`add_library` and must not be
+an ``IMPORTED`` target.
+
+Arguments to ``target_compile_features`` may use "generator expressions"
+with the syntax ``$<...>``.
+See the :manual:`cmake-generator-expressions(7)` manual for available
+expressions.

+
+* New :command:`target_compile_features` command allows populating the

+  build variable.
