Added in version 3.32.
The CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS,
CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_<CONFIG>,
CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS,
CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS_<CONFIG>,
CMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS,
and CMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS_<CONFIG> variables are parsed and
re-quoted and support the LINKER: prefix.
CMake 3.31 and below use the content of these variables as is.
CMake 3.32 and above parse the content of these variables and manage the
escaping of special characters. Moreover, the LINKER: prefix is now
recognized and expanded.
The OLD behavior of this policy is to consume the content of the
CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS,
CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_<CONFIG>,
CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS,
CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS_<CONFIG>,
CMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS,
and CMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS_<CONFIG> variables as is.
The NEW behavior of this policy is to parse and re-quote the content of the
CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS,
CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_<CONFIG>,
CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS,
CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS_<CONFIG>,
CMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS,
and CMAKE_MODULE_LINKER_FLAGS_<CONFIG> variables as well as to
expand the LINKER: prefix.
This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.32.
It may be set by cmake_policy() or cmake_minimum_required().
If it is not set, CMake does not warn, and uses OLD behavior.
Note
The OLD behavior of a policy is
deprecated by definition
and may be removed in a future version of CMake.
