Policy CMP0189, introduced by commit b3da9c6d60 (GenEx: Evaluate
LINK_LIBRARIES target properties transitively, 2025-02-24,
v4.1.0-rc1~731^2), takes effect at generation time, and so uses the
policy value as of the end of each directory. However, some projects
may rely on `file(GENERATE)` with the policy's OLD behavior in order
to extract targets' *direct* dependencies from `LINK_LIBRARIES`.
Pending a first-class solution to that problem, make it easier for
projects to port to the policy's NEW behavior in general while
retaining the OLD behavior in an isolated context.
Fixes: #27220
CMake Tests Directory ********************* This directory contains the CMake test suite. See also the `CMake Testing Guide`_ and the `CMake Source Code Guide`_. .. _`CMake Testing Guide`: ../Help/dev/testing.rst .. _`CMake Source Code Guide`: ../Help/dev/source.rst Many tests exist as immediate subdirectories, but some tests are organized as follows. * ``CMakeLib/``: Source code, used for tests, that links to the ``CMakeLib`` library defined over in ``Source/``. * ``CMakeOnly/``: Deprecated. Tests that run CMake to generate a project but not build it. Superseded by ``Tests/RunCMake/``. * ``Find*/``: Tests for specific find modules that can only be run on machines with the corresponding packages installed. They are enabled in ``CMakeLists.txt`` by undocumented options used on CI builds. * ``Module/``: Tests for specific CMake modules. * ``RunCMake/``: Tests that run CMake and/or other tools while precisely checking their return code and stdout/stderr content. Useful for testing error cases and diagnostic output. See `RunCMake/README.rst`_. .. _`RunCMake/README.rst`: RunCMake/README.rst
