  6. Introduction
  7. ============
  8. CMake policies introduce behavior changes while preserving compatibility
  9. for existing project releases. Policies are deprecation mechanisms, not
  10. feature toggles. Each policy documents a deprecated ``OLD`` behavior and
  11. a preferred ``NEW`` behavior. Projects must be updated over time to
  12. use the ``NEW`` behavior, but their existing releases will continue to
  13. work with the ``OLD`` behavior.
  14. Updating Projects
  15. -----------------
  16. When policies are newly introduced by a version of CMake, their ``OLD``
  17. behaviors are immediately deprecated by that version of CMake and later.
  18. Projects should be updated to use the ``NEW`` behaviors of the policies
  19. as soon as possible.
  20. Use the :command:`cmake_minimum_required` command to record the latest
  21. version of CMake for which a project has been updated.
  22. For example:
  23. ..
  24. Sync this cmake_minimum_required example with ``Help/dev/maint.rst``.
  25. .. code-block:: cmake
  26. cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.10...4.0)
  27. This uses the ``<min>...<max>`` syntax to enable the ``NEW`` behaviors
  28. of policies introduced in CMake 4.0 and earlier while only requiring a
  29. minimum version of CMake 3.10. The project is expected to work with
  30. both the ``OLD`` and ``NEW`` behaviors of policies introduced between
  31. those versions.
  32. Transition Schedule
  33. -------------------
  34. To help projects port to the ``NEW`` behaviors of policies on their own
  35. schedule, CMake offers a transition period:
  36. * If a policy is not set by a project, CMake uses its ``OLD`` behavior,
  37. but may warn that the policy has not been set.
  38. * Users running CMake may silence the warning without modifying a
  39. project by setting the :variable:`CMAKE_POLICY_DEFAULT_CMP<NNNN>`
  40. variable as a cache entry on the :manual:`cmake(1)` command line:
  41. .. code-block:: shell
  42. cmake -DCMAKE_POLICY_DEFAULT_CMP0990=OLD ...
  43. * Projects may silence the warning by using the :command:`cmake_policy`
  44. command to explicitly set the policy to ``OLD`` or ``NEW`` behavior:
  45. .. code-block:: cmake
  46. if(POLICY CMP0990)
  47. cmake_policy(SET CMP0990 NEW)
  48. endif()
  49. .. note::
  50. A policy should almost never be set to ``OLD``, except to silence
  51. warnings in an otherwise frozen or stable codebase, or temporarily
  52. as part of a larger migration path.
  53. * If a policy is set to ``OLD`` by a project, CMake versions released
  54. at least |POLICY_OLD_DELAY_WARNING| after the version that introduced
  55. a policy may issue a warning that the policy's ``OLD`` behavior will
  56. be removed from a future version of CMake.
  57. * If a policy is not set to ``NEW`` by a project, CMake versions released
  58. at least |POLICY_OLD_DELAY_ERROR| after the version that introduced a
  59. policy, and whose major version number is higher, may issue an error
  60. that the policy's ``OLD`` behavior has been removed.
  61. .. |POLICY_OLD_DELAY_WARNING| replace:: 2 years
  62. .. |POLICY_OLD_DELAY_ERROR| replace:: 6 years
