It is also possible to place +these files in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH within an outside project to add +languages not supported by upstream CMake. However, this is not +a fully supported use case. + +The implementation behind the scenes of project/enable_language, +including the compiler/platform modules, is an *internal* API that +does not make any compatibility guarantees. It is not covered in the +official reference documentation that is versioned with the source code. +Maintainers of external language support are responsible for porting +it to each version of CMake as upstream changes are made. Since +the API is internal we will not necessarily include notice of any +changes in release notes. + + CMakeDetermine(LANG)Compiler.cmake -> this should find the compiler for LANG and configure CMake(LANG)Compiler.cmake.in CMake(LANG)Compiler.cmake.in -> used by CMakeDetermine(LANG)Compiler.cmake |
