@@ -55,12 +55,13 @@ The ``[version]`` argument requests a version with which the package found
should be compatible. There are two possible forms in which it may be
specified:
- * A single version with the format ``major[.minor[.patch[.tweak]]]``.
+ * A single version with the format ``major[.minor[.patch[.tweak]]]``, where
+ each component is a numeric value.
* A version range with the format ``versionMin...[<]versionMax`` where
- ``versionMin`` and ``versionMax`` have the same format as the single
- version. By default, both end points are included. By specifying ``<``,
- the upper end point will be excluded. Version ranges are only supported
- with CMake 3.19 or later.
+ ``versionMin`` and ``versionMax`` have the same format and constraints
+ on components being integers as the single version. By default, both end
+ points are included. By specifying ``<``, the upper end point will be
+ excluded. Version ranges are only supported with CMake 3.19 or later.
The ``EXACT`` option requests that the version be matched exactly. This option
is incompatible with the specification of a version range.
