CMP0085
$<IN_LIST:...>
handles empty list items.
In CMake 3.13 and lower, the $<IN_LIST:...>
generator expression always returned 0
if the first argument was empty, even if the list contained an empty item. This behavior is inconsistent with the IN_LIST
behavior of if()
, which this generator expression is meant to emulate. CMake 3.14 and later handles this case correctly.
The OLD
behavior of this policy is for $<IN_LIST:...>
to always return 0
if the first argument is empty. The NEW
behavior is to return 1
if the first argument is empty and the list contains an empty item.
This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.14. CMake version 3.15.7 warns when the policy is not set and uses OLD
behavior. Use the cmake_policy()
command to set it to OLD
or NEW
explicitly.
Note
The OLD
behavior of a policy is deprecated by definition
and may be removed in a future version of CMake.
