New in version 3.14.
FindBISON
runs bison in CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR
when executing.
The module provides a BISON_TARGET
macro which generates BISON output. In CMake 3.13 and below the macro would generate a custom command that runs bison
in the source directory. CMake 3.14 and later prefer to run it in the build directory and use CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR
as the WORKING_DIRECTORY
of its add_custom_command()
invocation. This ensures that any implicitly generated file is written to the build tree rather than the source.
This policy provides compatibility for projects that have not been updated to expect the new behavior.
The OLD
behavior for this policy is for BISON_TARGET
to use the current source directory for the WORKING_DIRECTORY
and where to generate implicit files. The NEW
behavior of this policy is to use the current binary directory for the WORKING_DIRECTORY
and where to generate implicit files.
This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.14. Use the cmake_policy()
command to set it to OLD
or NEW
explicitly. Unlike most policies, CMake version 3.19.0-rc3 does not warn when this policy is not set and simply uses OLD
behavior.
Note
The OLD
behavior of a policy is deprecated by definition
and may be removed in a future version of CMake.
