CMAKE_FIND_USE_INSTALL_PREFIXΒΆ

New in version 3.24.

Controls the default behavior of the following commands for whether or not to search the locations in the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX and CMAKE_STAGING_PREFIX variables.

This is useful in cross-compiling environments.

Due to backwards compatibility with CMAKE_FIND_NO_INSTALL_PREFIX, the behavior of the find command change based on if this variable exists.
