+from the input content to produce the output content. The options are:
+
+``CONDITION <condition>``
+ Generate the output file for a particular configuration only if
+ the condition is true. The condition must be either ``0`` or ``1``
+ after evaluating generator expressions.
+
+``CONTENT <content>``
+ Use the content given explicitly as input.
+
+``INPUT <input-file>``
+ Use the content from a given file as input.
+ A relative path is treated with respect to the value of
+ :variable:`CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR`. See policy :policy:`CMP0070`.
+
+``OUTPUT <output-file>``
+ Specify the output file name to generate. Use generator expressions
+ such as ``$<CONFIG>`` to specify a configuration-specific output file
+ name. Multiple configurations may generate the same output file only
+ if the generated content is identical. Otherwise, the ``<output-file>``
+ must evaluate to an unique name for each configuration.
