This is +the same as the project command but does not create any of the extra +variables that are created by the project command. Example languages +are CXX, C, Fortran. + +This command must be called in file scope, not in a function call. +Furthermore, it must be called in the highest directory common to all +targets using the named language directly for compiling sources or +indirectly through link dependencies. It is simplest to enable all +needed languages in the top-level directory of a project. + +The OPTIONAL keyword is a placeholder for future implementation and +does not currently work. |
