CheckVariableExists
-------------------

Check if the variable exists.

.. command:: CHECK_VARIABLE_EXISTS

  .. code-block:: cmake

    CHECK_VARIABLE_EXISTS(VAR VARIABLE)


  ::

    VAR      - the name of the variable
    VARIABLE - variable to store the result
               Will be created as an internal cache variable.


  This macro is only for ``C`` variables.

The following variables may be set before calling this macro to modify
the way the check is run:

::

  CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS = string of compile command line flags
  CMAKE_REQUIRED_DEFINITIONS = list of macros to define (-DFOO=bar)
  CMAKE_REQUIRED_LINK_OPTIONS = list of options to pass to link command
  CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES = list of libraries to link
  CMAKE_REQUIRED_QUIET = execute quietly without messages
