+Introduction
+^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+This command will call meta-operations on built-in CMake commands or
+those created via the :command:`macro` or :command:`function` commands.
+
+``cmake_command`` does not introduce a new variable or policy scope.
+
+Invoking Commands

+.. _INVOKE:

+
+  cmake_command(INVOKE <command> [<args>...])

+Dynamic Memory Management
+=========================
+
+To ensure efficient memory management, i.e. no memory leaks, it is required
+to use smart pointers.  Any dynamic memory allocation must be handled by a
+smart pointer such as ``std::unique_ptr`` or ``std::shared_ptr``.
+
+It is allowed to pass raw pointers between objects to enable objects sharing.
+A raw pointer **must** not be deleted. Only the object(s) owning the smart
+pointer are allowed to delete dynamically allocated memory.

+
+  .. code-block:: cmake
+
+    add_library(libC_Clang ...)
+    add_library(libCXX_Clang ...)
+    add_library(libC_Intel ...)

+              $<$<LINK_LANG_AND_ID:C,Intel>:libC_Intel>)
+
+  This specifies the use of different link libraries based on both the

+  as link dependency when ``Clang`` or ``AppleClang`` is the ``CXX``
+  linker, and ``libCXX_Intel`` when ``Intel`` is the ``CXX`` linker.
+  Likewise when the ``C`` linker is ``Clang`` or ``AppleClang``, target
+  ``libC_Clang`` will be added as link dependency and ``libC_Intel`` when
+  ``Intel`` is the ``C`` linker.

+
+``$<LINK_LANGUAGE:languages>``
+  ``1`` when the language used for link step matches any of the entries
+  in ``languages``, otherwise ``0``.  This expression may be used to specify
+  link libraries, link options, link directories and link dependencies of a
+  particular language in a target. For example:
+
+  .. code-block:: cmake
+
+    add_library(api_C ...)
+    add_library(api_CXX ...)
+    add_library(api INTERFACE)

+    target_link_options(myapp1 PRIVATE api)
+
+    add_executable(myapp2 main.cpp)
+    target_link_options(myapp2 PRIVATE api)
+
+  This specifies to use the ``api`` target for linking targets ``myapp1`` and
+  ``myapp2``. In practice, ``myapp1`` will link with target ``api_C`` and
+  option ``-opt_c`` because it will use ``C`` as link language. And ``myapp2``
+  will link with ``api_CXX`` and option ``-opt_cxx`` because ``CXX`` will be
+  the link language.
+
+  .. _`Constraints LINK_LANGUAGE Generator Expression`:
+
+  .. note::
+
+    To determine the link language of a target, it is required to collect,
+    transitively, all the targets which will be linked to it. So, for link
+    libraries properties, a double evaluation will be done. During the first
+    evaluation, ``$<LINK_LANGUAGE:..>`` expressions will always return ``0``.
+    The link language computed after this first pass will be used to do the
+    second pass. To avoid inconsistency, it is required that the second pass
+    do not change the link language. Moreover, to avoid unexpected
+    side-effects, it is required to specify complete entities as part of the
+    ``$<LINK_LANGUAGE:..>`` expression. For example:
+
+    .. code-block:: cmake
+
+      add_library(lib STATIC file.cxx)
+      add_library(libother STATIC file.c)
+
+      # bad usage
+      add_executable(myapp1 main.c)
+      target_link_libraries(myapp1 PRIVATE lib$<$<LINK_LANGUAGE:C>:other>)
+
+      # correct usage
+      add_executable(myapp2 main.c)
+      target_link_libraries(myapp2 PRIVATE $<$<LINK_LANGUAGE:C>:libother>)
+
+    In this example, for ``myapp1``, the first pass will, unexpectedly,
+    determine that the link language is ``CXX`` because the evaluation of the
+    generator expression will be an empty string so ``myapp1`` will depends on
+    target ``lib`` which is ``C++``. On the contrary, for ``myapp2``, the first
+    evaluation will give ``C`` as link language, so the second pass will
+    correctly add target ``libother`` as link dependency.
+
+``$<DEVICE_LINK:list>``
+  Returns the list if it is the device link step, an empty list otherwise.
+  The device link step is controlled by :prop_tgt:`CUDA_SEPARABLE_COMPILATION`
+  and :prop_tgt:`CUDA_RESOLVE_DEVICE_SYMBOLS` properties. This expression can
+  only be used to specify link options.
+
+``$<HOST_LINK:list>``
+  Returns the list if it is the normal link step, an empty list otherwise.
+  This expression is mainly useful when a device link step is also involved
+  (see ``$<DEVICE_LINK:list>`` generator expression). This expression can only
