The +:prop_dir:`COMPILE_DEFINITIONS` directory property may be used instead. + +The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is to provide the list of flags given +so far to the :command:`add_definitions` command. The ``NEW`` behavior is +to behave as a normal user-defined directory property. + +This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.3. +CMake version |release| warns when the policy is not set and uses +``OLD`` behavior. Use the :command:`cmake_policy` command to set +it to ``OLD`` or ``NEW`` explicitly. |
