NAME
cmakevars - Reference of CMake variables.
NAME
cmake - Cross-Platform Makefile Generator.
VARIABLES THAT PROVIDE INFORMATION
variables defined by cmake, that give information about the
project, and cmake
CMAKE_AR
Name of archiving tool for static libraries.
This specifies name of the program that creates archive
or static libraries.
CMAKE_ARGC
Number of command line arguments passed to CMake in
script mode.
When run in -P script mode, CMake sets this variable to
the number of command line arguments. See also
CMAKE_ARGV0, 1, 2 ...
CMAKE_ARGV0
Command line argument passed to CMake in script mode.
When run in -P script mode, CMake sets this variable to
the first command line argument. It then also sets
CMAKE_ARGV1, CMAKE_ARGV2, ... and so on, up to the num-
ber of command line arguments given. See also
CMAKE_ARGC.
CMAKE_BINARY_DIR
The path to the top level of the build tree.
This is the full path to the top level of the current
CMake build tree. For an in-source build, this would be
the same as CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR.
CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL
Tool used for the actual build process.
This variable is set to the program that will be needed
to build the output of CMake. If the generator

selected was Visual Studio 6, the CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM
will be set to msdev, for Unix makefiles it will be set
to make or gmake, and for Visual Studio 7 it set to
devenv. For Nmake Makefiles the value is nmake. This
can be useful for adding special flags and commands
based on the final build environment.
CMAKE_CACHEFILE_DIR
The directory with the CMakeCache.txt file.
This is the full path to the directory that has the
CMakeCache.txt file in it. This is the same as
CMAKE_BINARY_DIR.
CMAKE_CACHE_MAJOR_VERSION
Major version of CMake used to create the CMake-
Cache.txt file
This is stores the major version of CMake used to write
a CMake cache file. It is only different when a differ-
ent version of CMake is run on a previously created
cache file.
CMAKE_CACHE_MINOR_VERSION
Minor version of CMake used to create the CMake-
Cache.txt file
This is stores the minor version of CMake used to write
a CMake cache file. It is only different when a differ-
ent version of CMake is run on a previously created
cache file.
CMAKE_CACHE_PATCH_VERSION
Patch version of CMake used to create the CMake-
Cache.txt file
This is stores the patch version of CMake used to write
a CMake cache file. It is only different when a differ-
ent version of CMake is run on a previously created
cache file.
CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR
Build-time reference to per-configuration output subdi-
rectory.
For native build systems supporting multiple configura-
tions in the build tree (such as Visual Studio and
cmake 2.8.6 Last change: June 17, 2014 2
User Commands cmakevars(1)
Xcode), the value is a reference to a build-time vari-
able specifying the name of the per-configuration out-
put subdirectory. On Makefile generators this evalu-
ates to "." because there is only one configuration in
a build tree. Example values:
$(IntDir) = Visual Studio 6
$(OutDir) = Visual Studio 7, 8, 9
$(Configuration) = Visual Studio 10
$(CONFIGURATION) = Xcode
. = Make-based tools
Since these values are evaluated by the native build
system, this variable is suitable only for use in com-
mand lines that will be evaluated at build time. Exam-
ple of intended usage:
add_executable(mytool mytool.c)
add_custom_command(
OUTPUT out.txt
COMMAND ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR}/mytool
${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/in.txt out.txt
DEPENDS mytool in.txt
)
add_custom_target(drive ALL DEPENDS out.txt)
Note that CMAKE_CFG_INTDIR is no longer necessary for
this purpose but has been left for compatibility with
existing projects. Instead add_custom_command() recog-
nizes executable target names in its COMMAND option, so
"${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/${CMAKE_CFG_INT-
DIR}/mytool" can be replaced by just "mytool".
This variable is read-only. Setting it is undefined
behavior. In multi-configuration build systems the
value of this variable is passed as the value of pre-
processor symbol "CMAKE_INTDIR" to the compilation of
all source files.
CMAKE_COMMAND
The full path to the cmake executable.
This is the full path to the CMake executable cmake
which is useful from custom commands that want to use
the cmake -E option for portable system commands. (e.g.
/usr/local/bin/cmake

User Commands cmakevars(1)
CMAKE_CROSSCOMPILING
Is CMake currently cross compiling.
This variable will be set to true by CMake if CMake is
cross compiling. Specifically if the build platform is
different from the target platform.
CMAKE_CTEST_COMMAND
Full path to ctest command installed with cmake.
This is the full path to the CTest executable ctest
which is useful from custom commands that want to use
the cmake -E option for portable system commands.
CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR
The path to the binary directory currently being pro-
cessed.
This the full path to the build directory that is cur-
rently being processed by cmake. Each directory added
by add_subdirectory will create a binary directory in
the build tree, and as it is being processed this vari-
able will be set. For in-source builds this is the cur-
rent source directory being processed.
CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_DIR
Full directory of the listfile currently being pro-
cessed.
As CMake processes the listfiles in your project this
variable will always be set to the directory where the
listfile which is currently being processed (CMAKE_CUR-
RENT_LIST_FILE) is located. The value has dynamic
scope. When CMake starts processing commands in a
source file it sets this variable to the directory
where this file is located. When CMake finishes pro-
cessing commands from the file it restores the previous
value. Therefore the value of the variable inside a
macro or function is the directory of the file invoking
the bottom-most entry on the call stack, not the direc-
tory of the file containing the macro or function defi-
nition.
See also CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_FILE.
CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_FILE
Full path to the listfile currently being processed.

starts processing commands in a source file it sets
this variable to the location of the file. When CMake
finishes processing commands from the file it restores
the previous value. Therefore the value of the vari-
able inside a macro or function is the file invoking
the bottom-most entry on the call stack, not the file
containing the macro or function definition.
See also CMAKE_PARENT_LIST_FILE.
CMAKE_CURRENT_LIST_LINE
The line number of the current file being processed.
This is the line number of the file currently being
processed by cmake.
CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR
The path to the source directory currently being pro-
cessed.
This the full path to the source directory that is cur-
rently being processed by cmake.

guage <LANG>.
CMAKE_EXTRA_GENERATOR
The extra generator used to build the project.
When using the Eclipse, CodeBlocks or KDevelop genera-
tors, CMake generates Makefiles (CMAKE_GENERATOR) and

CMAKE_SIZEOF_VOID_P
Size of a void pointer.
This is set to the size of a pointer on the machine,
and is determined by a try compile. If a 64 bit size is
found, then the library search path is modified to look
for 64 bit libraries first.
CMAKE_SKIP_RPATH
If true, do not add run time path information.
If this is set to TRUE, then the rpath information is
not added to compiled executables. The default is to
add rpath information if the platform supports it.This
allows for easy running from the build tree.
CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR
The path to the top level of the source tree.
This is the full path to the top level of the current
CMake source tree. For an in-source build, this would
be the same as CMAKE_BINARY_DIR.
CMAKE_STANDARD_LIBRARIES
Libraries linked into every executable and shared
library.
cmake 2.8.6 Last change: June 17, 2014 9
User Commands cmakevars(1)
This is the list of libraries that are linked into all
executables and libraries.

cmake 2.8.6 Last change: June 17, 2014 10
User Commands cmakevars(1)
major.minor.patch[.tweak[-id]] format.
This specifies the full version of the CMake executable
being run. This variable is defined by versions 2.6.3
and higher. See variables CMAKE_MAJOR_VERSION,
CMAKE_MINOR_VERSION, CMAKE_PATCH_VERSION, and
CMAKE_TWEAK_VERSION for individual version components.
The [-id] component appears in non-release versions and
may be arbitrary text.
PROJECT_BINARY_DIR

This is the binary directory of the most recent PROJECT
command.
PROJECT_NAME
Name of the project given to the project command.
This is the name given to the most recent PROJECT com-
mand.
PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR

A variable is created with the name used in the PROJECT
command, and is the binary directory for the project.
This can be useful when SUBDIR is used to connect sev-
eral projects.
[Project name]_SOURCE_DIR
Top level source directory for the named project.
A variable is created with the name used in the PROJECT
command, and is the source directory for the project.
This can be useful when add_subdirectory is used to
connect several projects.
VARIABLES THAT CHANGE BEHAVIOR
BUILD_SHARED_LIBS
cmake 2.8.6 Last change: June 17, 2014 11
User Commands cmakevars(1)
Global flag to cause add_library to create shared
libraries if on.
If present and true, this will cause all libraries to
be built shared unless the library was explicitly added
as a static library. This variable is often added to
projects as an OPTION so that each user of a project
can decide if they want to build the project using
shared or static libraries.
CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY
Version of cmake required to build project
From the point of view of backwards compatibility, this
specifies what version of CMake should be supported. By
default this value is the version number of CMake that
you are running. You can set this to an older version
of CMake to support deprecated commands of CMake in
projects that were written to use older versions of
CMake. This can be set by the user or set at the begin-
ning of a CMakeLists file.
CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE
Specifies the build type for make based generators.
This specifies what build type will be built in this
tree. Possible values are empty, Debug, Release, Rel-
WithDebInfo and MinSizeRel. This variable is only sup-
ported for make based generators. If this variable is
supported, then CMake will also provide initial values
for the variables with the name
CMAKE_C_FLAGS_[DEBUG|RELEASE|RELWITHDEBINFO|MINSIZ-
EREL]. For example, if CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE is Debug, then
CMAKE_C_FLAGS_DEBUG will be added to the CMAKE_C_FLAGS.
CMAKE_COLOR_MAKEFILE
Enables color output when using the Makefile generator.
When enabled, the generated Makefiles will produce col-
ored output. Default is ON.
CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES
Specifies the available build types.
This specifies what build types will be available such
as Debug, Release, RelWithDebInfo etc. This has reason-
able defaults on most platforms. But can be extended to
provide other build types. See also CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE.
cmake 2.8.6 Last change: June 17, 2014 12
User Commands cmakevars(1)
CMAKE_DISABLE_FIND_PACKAGE_<PackageName>
Variable for disabling find_package() calls.
Every non-REQUIRED find_package() call in a project can
be disabled by setting the variable CMAKE_DIS-
ABLE_FIND_PACKAGE_<PackageName> to TRUE. This can be
used to build a project without an optional package,
although that package is installed.
This switch should be used during the initial CMake
run. Otherwise if the package has already been found in
a previous CMake run, the variables which have been
stored in the cache will still be there. In the case it
is recommended to remove the cache variables for this
package from the cache using the cache editor or cmake
-U
CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_PREFIXES
Prefixes to prepend when looking for libraries.
This specifies what prefixes to add to library names
when the find_library command looks for libraries. On
UNIX systems this is typically lib, meaning that when
trying to find the foo library it will look for libfoo.
CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES
Suffixes to append when looking for libraries.
This specifies what suffixes to add to library names
when the find_library command looks for libraries. On
Windows systems this is typically .lib and .dll, mean-
ing that when trying to find the foo library it will
look for foo.dll etc.
CMAKE_IGNORE_PATH
Path to be ignored by FIND_XXX() commands.
Specifies directories to be ignored by searches in
FIND_XXX() commands This is useful in cross-compiled
environments where some system directories contain
incompatible but possibly linkable libraries. For exam-
ple, on cross-compiled cluster environments, this
allows a user to ignore directories containing
libraries meant for the front-end machine that modules
like FindX11 (and others) would normally search. By
default this is empty; it is intended to be set by the
project. Note that CMAKE_IGNORE_PATH takes a list of
directory names, NOT a list of prefixes. If you want to
cmake 2.8.6 Last change: June 17, 2014 13
User Commands cmakevars(1)
ignore paths under prefixes (bin, include, lib, etc.),
you'll need to specify them explicitly. See also
CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH, CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH,
CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH, CMAKE_PROGRAM_PATH.
CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH
Path used for searching by FIND_FILE() and FIND_PATH().
Specifies a path which will be used both by FIND_FILE()
and FIND_PATH(). Both commands will check each of the
contained directories for the existence of the file
which is currently searched. By default it is empty, it
is intended to be set by the project. See also
CMAKE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_PATH, CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
Install directory used by install.
If "make install" is invoked or INSTALL is built, this
directory is pre-pended onto all install directories.
This variable defaults to /usr/local on UNIX and
c:/Program Files on Windows.
CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH
Path used for searching by FIND_LIBRARY().
Specifies a path which will be used by FIND_LIBRARY().
FIND_LIBRARY() will check each of the contained direc-
tories for the existence of the library which is cur-
rently searched. By default it is empty, it is intended
to be set by the project. See also CMAKE_SYS-
TEM_LIBRARY_PATH, CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.
CMAKE_MFC_FLAG
Tell cmake to use MFC for an executable or dll.
This can be set in a CMakeLists.txt file and will
enable MFC in the application. It should be set to 1
for static the static MFC library, and 2 for the shared
MFC library. This is used in visual studio 6 and 7
project files. The CMakeSetup dialog used MFC and the
CMakeLists.txt looks like this:
add_definitions(-D_AFXDLL)
set(CMAKE_MFC_FLAG 2)
cmake 2.8.6 Last change: June 17, 2014 14
User Commands cmakevars(1)
add_executable(CMakeSetup WIN32 ${SRCS})
CMAKE_MODULE_PATH
List of directories to search for CMake modules.
Commands like include() and find_package() search for
files in directories listed by this variable before
checking the default modules that come with CMake.
CMAKE_NOT_USING_CONFIG_FLAGS
Skip _BUILD_TYPE flags if true.
This is an internal flag used by the generators in
CMake to tell CMake to skip the _BUILD_TYPE flags.
CMAKE_POLICY_DEFAULT_CMP<NNNN>
Default for CMake Policy CMP<NNNN> when it is otherwise
left unset.
Commands cmake_minimum_required(VERSION) and cmake_pol-
icy(VERSION) by default leave policies introduced after
the given version unset. Set CMAKE_POL-
ICY_DEFAULT_CMP<NNNN> to OLD or NEW to specify the
default for policy CMP<NNNN>, where <NNNN> is the pol-
icy number.
This variable should not be set by a project in CMake
code; use cmake_policy(SET) instead. Users running
CMake may set this variable in the cache (e.g.
-DCMAKE_POLICY_DEFAULT_CMP<NNNN>=<OLD|NEW>) to set a
policy not otherwise set by the project. Set to OLD to
quiet a policy warning while using old behavior or to
NEW to try building the project with new behavior.
CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH
Path used for searching by FIND_XXX(), with appropriate
suffixes added.
Specifies a path which will be used by the FIND_XXX()
commands. It contains the "base" directories, the
FIND_XXX() commands append appropriate subdirectories
to the base directories. So FIND_PROGRAM() adds /bin to
each of the directories in the path, FIND_LIBRARY()
appends /lib to each of the directories, and
FIND_PATH() and FIND_FILE() append /include . By
default it is empty, it is intended to be set by the
cmake 2.8.6 Last change: June 17, 2014 15

project. See also CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH,
CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH, CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH, CMAKE_PRO-
GRAM_PATH.
CMAKE_PROGRAM_PATH
Path used for searching by FIND_PROGRAM().
Specifies a path which will be used by FIND_PROGRAM().
FIND_PROGRAM() will check each of the contained direc-
tories for the existence of the program which is cur-
rently searched. By default it is empty, it is intended
to be set by the project. See also CMAKE_SYSTEM_PRO-
GRAM_PATH, CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH.
CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_ALL_DEPENDENCY
Don't make the install target depend on the all target.
By default, the "install" target depends on the "all"
target. This has the effect, that when "make install"
is invoked or INSTALL is built, first the "all" target
is built, then the installation starts. If
CMAKE_SKIP_INSTALL_ALL_DEPENDENCY is set to TRUE, this
dependency is not created, so the installation process
will start immediately, independent from whether the
project has been completely built or not.
CMAKE_SYSTEM_IGNORE_PATH
Path to be ignored by FIND_XXX() commands.
Specifies directories to be ignored by searches in
FIND_XXX() commands This is useful in cross-compiled
environments where some system directories contain
incompatible but possibly linkable libraries. For exam-
ple, on cross-compiled cluster environments, this
allows a user to ignore directories containing
libraries meant for the front-end machine that modules
like FindX11 (and others) would normally search. By
default this contains a list of directories containing
incompatible binaries for the host system. See also
CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH, CMAKE_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_PATH,
CMAKE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_PATH, and CMAKE_SYSTEM_PRO-
GRAM_PATH.
CMAKE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_PATH
Path used for searching by FIND_FILE() and FIND_PATH().
Specifies a path which will be used both by FIND_FILE()
and FIND_PATH(). Both commands will check each of the

contained directories for the existence of the file
which is currently searched. By default it contains the
standard directories for the current system. It is NOT
intended to be modified by the project, use
CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH for this. See also CMAKE_SYSTEM_PRE-
FIX_PATH.
CMAKE_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_PATH
Path used for searching by FIND_LIBRARY().
Specifies a path which will be used by FIND_LIBRARY().
FIND_LIBRARY() will check each of the contained direc-
tories for the existence of the library which is cur-
rently searched. By default it contains the standard
directories for the current system. It is NOT intended
to be modified by the project, use CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH
for this. See also CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH.
CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH
Path used for searching by FIND_XXX(), with appropriate
suffixes added.
Specifies a path which will be used by the FIND_XXX()
commands. It contains the "base" directories, the
FIND_XXX() commands append appropriate subdirectories
to the base directories. So FIND_PROGRAM() adds /bin to
each of the directories in the path, FIND_LIBRARY()
appends /lib to each of the directories, and
FIND_PATH() and FIND_FILE() append /include . By
default this contains the standard directories for the
current system. It is NOT intended to be modified by
the project, use CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH for this. See also
CMAKE_SYSTEM_INCLUDE_PATH, CMAKE_SYSTEM_LIBRARY_PATH,

TEM_IGNORE_PATH.
CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROGRAM_PATH
Path used for searching by FIND_PROGRAM().
Specifies a path which will be used by FIND_PROGRAM().
FIND_PROGRAM() will check each of the contained direc-
tories for the existence of the program which is cur-
rently searched. By default it contains the standard
directories for the current system. It is NOT intended
to be modified by the project, use CMAKE_PROGRAM_PATH
for this. See also CMAKE_SYSTEM_PREFIX_PATH.
CMAKE_USER_MAKE_RULES_OVERRIDE
cmake 2.8.6 Last change: June 17, 2014 17
User Commands cmakevars(1)
Specify a CMake file that overrides platform informa-
tion.
CMake loads the specified file while enabling support
for each language from either the project() or
enable_language() commands. It is loaded after CMake's
builtin compiler and platform information modules have
been loaded but before the information is used. The
file may set platform information variables to override
CMake's defaults.
This feature is intended for use only in overriding
information variables that must be set before CMake
builds its first test project to check that the com-
piler for a language works. It should not be used to
load a file in cases that a normal include() will work.
Use it only as a last resort for behavior that cannot
be achieved any other way. For example, one may set
CMAKE_C_FLAGS_INIT to change the default value used to
initialize CMAKE_C_FLAGS before it is cached. The
override file should NOT be used to set anything that
could be set after languages are enabled, such as vari-
ables like CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY that affect
the placement of binaries. Information set in the file
will be used for try_compile and try_run builds too.
VARIABLES THAT DESCRIBE THE SYSTEM

CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE
Target architecture library directory name, if
detected.
This is the value of CMAKE_<lang>_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE
as detected for one of the enabled languages.
CMAKE_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE_REGEX
Regex matching possible target architecture library
directory names.
This is used to detect CMAKE_<lang>_LIBRARY_ARCHITEC-
TURE from the implicit linker search path by matching
the <arch> name.
CMAKE_OBJECT_PATH_MAX
Maximum object file full-path length allowed by native
build tools.
CMake computes for every source file an object file
name that is unique to the source file and determinis-
tic with respect to the full path to the source file.
This allows multiple source files in a target to share
the same name if they lie in different directories
without rebuilding when one is added or removed. How-
ever, it can produce long full paths in a few cases, so
CMake shortens the path using a hashing scheme when the
full path to an object file exceeds a limit. CMake has
a built-in limit for each platform that is sufficient
for common tools, but some native tools may have a
lower limit. This variable may be set to specify the
limit explicitly. The value must be an integer no less
than 128.
CMAKE_SYSTEM
Name of system cmake is compiling for.
This variable is the composite of CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME and
CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION, like this ${CMAKE_SYS-
TEM_NAME}-${CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION}. If CMAKE_SYSTEM_VER-
SION is not set, then CMAKE_SYSTEM is the same as
CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME.
CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME
Name of the OS CMake is building for.
This is the name of the operating system on which CMake
is targeting. On systems that have the uname command,
cmake 2.8.6 Last change: June 17, 2014 20

this variable is set to the output of uname -s. Linux,
Windows, and Darwin for Mac OSX are the values found
on the big three operating systems.
CMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR
The name of the CPU CMake is building for.
On systems that support uname, this variable is set to
the output of uname -p, on windows it is set to the
value of the environment variable PROCESSOR_ARCHITEC-
TURE
CMAKE_SYSTEM_VERSION
OS version CMake is building for.
A numeric version string for the system, on systems
that support uname, this variable is set to the output
of uname -r. On other systems this is set to
major-minor version numbers.
CYGWIN
True for cygwin.
Set to true when using CYGWIN.
MSVC True when using Microsoft Visual C
Set to true when the compiler is some version of
Microsoft Visual C.
MSVC80
True when using Microsoft Visual C 8.0
Set to true when the compiler is version 8.0 of
Microsoft Visual C.
MSVC_IDE
True when using the Microsoft Visual C IDE
Set to true when the target platform is the Microsoft
Visual C IDE, as opposed to the command line compiler.
MSVC_VERSION
The version of Microsoft Visual C/C++ being used if
any.

(such as "3.1.2").
VARIABLES THAT CONTROL THE BUILD
CMAKE_<CONFIG>_POSTFIX
Default filename postfix for libraries under configura-
tion <CONFIG>.
When a non-executable target is created its <CON-
FIG>_POSTFIX target property is initialized with the
value of this variable if it is set.
CMAKE_ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
Where to put all the ARCHIVE targets when built.
This variable is used to initialize the ARCHIVE_OUT-
PUT_DIRECTORY property on all the targets. See that
target property for additional information.
CMAKE_AUTOMOC
Whether to handle moc automatically for Qt targets.
cmake 2.8.6 Last change: June 17, 2014 22
User Commands cmakevars(1)
This variable is used to initialize the AUTOMOC prop-
erty on all the targets. See that target property for
additional information.
CMAKE_BUILD_WITH_INSTALL_RPATH
Use the install path for the RPATH
Normally CMake uses the build tree for the RPATH when
building executables etc on systems that use RPATH.
When the software is installed the executables etc are
relinked by CMake to have the install RPATH. If this
variable is set to true then the software is always
built with the install path for the RPATH and does not
need to be relinked when installed.
CMAKE_DEBUG_POSTFIX
See variable CMAKE_<CONFIG>_POSTFIX.
This variable is a special case of the more-general
CMAKE_<CONFIG>_POSTFIX variable for the DEBUG configu-
ration.
CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS
Linker flags used to create executables.
Flags used by the linker when creating an executable.
CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS_[CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE]
Flag used when linking an executable.
Same as CMAKE_C_FLAGS_* but used by the linker when
creating executables.
CMAKE_Fortran_FORMAT
Set to FIXED or FREE to indicate the Fortran source
layout.
This variable is used to initialize the Fortran_FORMAT
property on all the targets. See that target property
for additional information.
CMAKE_Fortran_MODULE_DIRECTORY
Fortran module output directory.
This variable is used to initialize the Fortran_MOD-
ULE_DIRECTORY property on all the targets. See that
cmake 2.8.6 Last change: June 17, 2014 23
User Commands cmakevars(1)
target property for additional information.
CMAKE_INCLUDE_CURRENT_DIR
Automatically add the current source- and build direc-
tories to the include path.
If this variable is enabled, CMake automatically adds
in each directory ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR} and
${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR} to the include path for
this directory. These additional include directories do
not propagate down to subdirectories. This is useful
mainly for out-of-source builds, where files generated
into the build tree are included by files located in
the source tree.
By default CMAKE_INCLUDE_CURRENT_DIR is OFF.
CMAKE_INSTALL_NAME_DIR
Mac OSX directory name for installed targets.
CMAKE_INSTALL_NAME_DIR is used to initialize the
INSTALL_NAME_DIR property on all targets. See that tar-
get property for more information.
CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH
The rpath to use for installed targets.
A semicolon-separated list specifying the rpath to use
in installed targets (for platforms that support it).
This is used to initialize the target property
INSTALL_RPATH for all targets.
CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH
Add paths to linker search and installed rpath.
CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH is a boolean that if
set to true will append directories in the linker
search path and outside the project to the
INSTALL_RPATH. This is used to initialize the target
property INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH for all targets.
CMAKE_LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
Where to put all the LIBRARY targets when built.
This variable is used to initialize the LIBRARY_OUT-
PUT_DIRECTORY property on all the targets. See that
cmake 2.8.6 Last change: June 17, 2014 24
User Commands cmakevars(1)
target property for additional information.
CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH_FLAG
The flag used to add a library search path to a com-
piler.
The flag used to specify a library directory to the
compiler. On most compilers this is "-L".
CMAKE_LINK_DEF_FILE_FLAG
Linker flag used to specify a .def file for dll cre-
ation.
The flag used to add a .def file when creating a dll on
Windows, this is only defined on Windows.
CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARY_FILE_FLAG
Flag used to link a library specified by a path to its
file.
The flag used before a library file path is given to
the linker. This is needed only on very few platforms.
CMAKE_LINK_LIBRARY_FLAG
Flag used to link a library into an executable.
The flag used to specify a library to link to an exe-
cutable. On most compilers this is "-l".
CMAKE_NO_BUILTIN_CHRPATH
Do not use the builtin ELF editor to fix RPATHs on
installation.
When an ELF binary needs to have a different RPATH
after installation than it does in the build tree,
CMake uses a builtin editor to change the RPATH in the
installed copy. If this variable is set to true then
CMake will relink the binary before installation
instead of using its builtin editor.
CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
Where to put all the RUNTIME targets when built.
This variable is used to initialize the RUNTIME_OUT-
PUT_DIRECTORY property on all the targets. See that
target property for additional information.
cmake 2.8.6 Last change: June 17, 2014 25
User Commands cmakevars(1)
CMAKE_SKIP_BUILD_RPATH
Do not include RPATHs in the build tree.
Normally CMake uses the build tree for the RPATH when
building executables etc on systems that use RPATH.
When the software is installed the executables etc are
relinked by CMake to have the install RPATH. If this
variable is set to true then the software is always
built with no RPATH.
CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_CONFIGURATION
Build configuration used for try_compile and try_run
projects.
Projects built by try_compile and try_run are built
synchronously during the CMake configuration step.
Therefore a specific build configuration must be chosen
even if the generated build system supports multiple
configurations.
CMAKE_USE_RELATIVE_PATHS
Use relative paths (May not work!).
If this is set to TRUE, then the CMake will use rela-
tive paths between the source and binary tree. This
option does not work for more complicated projects, and
relative paths are used when possible. In general, it
is not possible to move CMake generated makefiles to a
different location regardless of the value of this
variable.
EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH
Old executable location variable.
The target property RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY supercedes
this variable for a target if it is set. Executable
targets are otherwise placed in this directory.
LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH
Old library location variable.
The target properties ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY,
LIBRARY_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY, and RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
supercede this variable for a target if they are set.
Library targets are otherwise placed in this directory.

This is a list of file extensions that may be part of a
project for a given language but are not compiled.
CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES
Directories implicitly searched by the compiler for
header files.
CMake does not explicitly specify these directories on
compiler command lines for language <LANG>. This pre-
vents system include directories from being treated as
user include directories on some compilers.
CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_DIRECTORIES
Implicit linker search path detected for language
<LANG>.
Compilers typically pass directories containing lan-
guage runtime libraries and default library search
paths when they invoke a linker. These paths are
implicit linker search directories for the compiler's
language. CMake automatically detects these directo-
ries for each language and reports the results in this
variable.
CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_LIBRARIES
Implicit link libraries and flags detected for language
<LANG>.
Compilers typically pass language runtime library names
and other flags when they invoke a linker. These flags
are implicit link options for the compiler's language.
CMake automatically detects these libraries and flags
for each language and reports the results in this vari-
able.
cmake 2.8.6 Last change: June 17, 2014 29
User Commands cmakevars(1)
CMAKE_<LANG>_LIBRARY_ARCHITECTURE
Target architecture library directory name detected for
<lang>.
If the <lang> compiler passes to the linker an archi-
tecture-specific system library search directory such
as <prefix>/lib/<arch> this variable contains the
<arch> name if/as detected by CMake.
CMAKE_<LANG>_LINKER_PREFERENCE
Preference value for linker language selection.
The "linker language" for executable, shared library,
and module targets is the language whose compiler will
invoke the linker. The LINKER_LANGUAGE target property
sets the language explicitly. Otherwise, the linker
language is that whose linker preference value is high-
est among languages compiled and linked into the tar-
get. See also the CMAKE_<LANG>_LINKER_PREFERENCE_PROP-
AGATES variable.
CMAKE_<LANG>_LINKER_PREFERENCE_PROPAGATES
True if CMAKE_<LANG>_LINKER_PREFERENCE propagates
across targets.
This is used when CMake selects a linker language for a
target. Languages compiled directly into the target
are always considered. A language compiled into static
libraries linked by the target is considered if this
variable is true.
CMAKE_<LANG>_LINK_EXECUTABLE
Rule variable to link and executable.
Rule variable to link and executable for the given lan-
guage.
CMAKE_<LANG>_OUTPUT_EXTENSION
Extension for the output of a compile for a single
file.
This is the extension for an object file for the given
<LANG>. For example .obj for C on Windows.

to change.
CMAKE_<LANG>_SIZEOF_DATA_PTR
Size of pointer-to-data types for language <LANG>.
This holds the size (in bytes) of pointer-to-data types
in the target platform ABI. It is defined for lan-
guages C and CXX (C++).
CMAKE_<LANG>_SOURCE_FILE_EXTENSIONS
Extensions of source files for the given language.
This is the list of extensions for a given languages
source files.

If the selected <LANG> compiler is the GNU compiler
then this is TRUE, if not it is FALSE.
CMAKE_Fortran_MODDIR_DEFAULT
Fortran default module output directory.
Most Fortran compilers write .mod files to the current
working directory. For those that do not, this is set
to "." and used when the Fortran_MODULE_DIRECTORY tar-
get property is not set.
CMAKE_Fortran_MODDIR_FLAG
Fortran flag for module output directory.
This stores the flag needed to pass the value of the
Fortran_MODULE_DIRECTORY target property to the com-
piler.
CMAKE_Fortran_MODOUT_FLAG
