Every policy's documentation has a paragraph on what version of CMake introduced it, how to set the policy, and whether CMake warns if the policy is not set. The wording of this paragraph has diverged across policies over time. Factor the paragraph out into a standard advice document included by every policy.

Honor link flags in :command:`try_compile` source-file signature.
|
|
|
|
The :command:`try_compile` command source-file signature generates a
|
|
``CMakeLists.txt`` file to build the source file into an executable.
|
|
In order to compile the source the same way as it might be compiled
|
|
by the calling project, the generated project sets the value of the
|
|
:variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS` variable to that in the calling project.
|
|
The value of the :variable:`CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS` variable may be
|
|
needed in some cases too, but CMake 3.1 and lower did not set it in
|
|
the generated project. CMake 3.2 and above prefer to set it so that
|
|
linker flags are honored as well as compiler flags. This policy
|
|
provides compatibility with the pre-3.2 behavior.
|
|
|
|
The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is to not set the value of the
|
|
:variable:`CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS` variable in the generated test
|
|
project. The ``NEW`` behavior for this policy is to set the value of
|
|
the :variable:`CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS` variable in the test project
|
|
to the same as it is in the calling project.
|
|
|
|
If the project code does not set the policy explicitly, users may
|
|
set it on the command line by defining the
|
|
:variable:`CMAKE_POLICY_DEFAULT_CMP0056 <CMAKE_POLICY_DEFAULT_CMP<NNNN>>`
|
|
variable in the cache.
