+cmake_command
+-------------
+
+Call meta-operations on CMake commands.
+
+Synopsis
+^^^^^^^^
+
+.. parsed-literal::
+
+  cmake_command(`INVOKE`_ <command> [<args>...])
+  cmake_command(`EVAL`_ CODE <code>...)
+
+Introduction
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This command will call meta-operations on built-in CMake commands or
+those created via the :command:`macro` or :command:`function` commands.
+
+``cmake_command`` does not introduce a new variable or policy scope.
+
+Invoking Commands
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. _INVOKE:
+
+.. code-block:: cmake
+
+  cmake_command(INVOKE <command> [<args>...])
+
+Invokes the named ``<command>`` with the given arguments (if any).
+For example, the code:
+
+.. code-block:: cmake
+
+  set(message_command "message")
+  cmake_command(INVOKE ${message_command} STATUS "Hello World!")
+
+is equivalent to
+
+.. code-block:: cmake
+
+  message(STATUS "Hello World!")
+
+Evaluating Code
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+.. _EVAL:
+
+.. code-block:: cmake
+
+  cmake_command(EVAL CODE <code>...)
+
+Evaluates the ``<code>...`` as CMake code.
+
+For example, the code:
+
+.. code-block:: cmake
+
+  set(A TRUE)
+  set(B TRUE)
+  set(C TRUE)
+  set(condition "(A AND B) OR C")
+
+  cmake_command(EVAL CODE "
+    if (${condition})
+      message(STATUS TRUE)
+    else()
+      message(STATUS FALSE)
+    endif()"
+  )
+
+is equivalent to
+
+.. code-block:: cmake
+
+  set(A TRUE)
+  set(B TRUE)
+  set(C TRUE)
+  set(condition "(A AND B) OR C")
+
+  file(WRITE ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/eval.cmake "
+    if (${condition})
+      message(STATUS TRUE)
+    else()
+      message(STATUS FALSE)
+    endif()"
+  )
+
+  include(${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/eval.cmake)
