-configure_file
---------------
-
-Copy a file to another location and modify its contents.
-
-::
-
- configure_file(<input> <output>
- [COPYONLY] [ESCAPE_QUOTES] [@ONLY]
- [NEWLINE_STYLE [UNIX|DOS|WIN32|LF|CRLF] ])
-
-Copies an ``<input>`` file to an ``<output>`` file and substitutes
-variable values referenced as ``@VAR@`` or ``${VAR}`` in the input
-file content. Each variable reference will be replaced with the
-current value of the variable, or the empty string if the variable
-is not defined. Furthermore, input lines of the form::
-
- #cmakedefine VAR ...
-
-will be replaced with either::
-
- #define VAR ...
-
-or::
-
- /* #undef VAR */
-
-depending on whether ``VAR`` is set in CMake to any value not considered
-a false constant by the :command:`if` command. The "..." content on the
-line after the variable name, if any, is processed as above.
-Input file lines of the form ``#cmakedefine01 VAR`` will be replaced with
-either ``#define VAR 1`` or ``#define VAR 0`` similarly.
-
-If the input file is modified the build system will re-run CMake to
-re-configure the file and generate the build system again.
-
-The arguments are:
-
-``<input>``
- Path to the input file. A relative path is treated with respect to
- the value of :variable:`CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR`. The input path
- must be a file, not a directory.
-
-``<output>``
- Path to the output file or directory. A relative path is treated
- with respect to the value of :variable:`CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR`.
- If the path names an existing directory the output file is placed
- in that directory with the same file name as the input file.
-
-``COPYONLY``
- Copy the file without replacing any variable references or other
- content. This option may not be used with ``NEWLINE_STYLE``.
-
-``ESCAPE_QUOTES``
- Escape any substituted quotes with backslashes (C-style).
-
-``@ONLY``
- Restrict variable replacement to references of the form ``@VAR@``.
- This is useful for configuring scripts that use ``${VAR}`` syntax.
-
-``NEWLINE_STYLE <style>``
- Specify the newline style for the output file. Specify
- ``UNIX`` or ``LF`` for ``\n`` newlines, or specify
- ``DOS``, ``WIN32``, or ``CRLF`` for ``\r\n`` newlines.
- This option may not be used with ``COPYONLY``.
-
-Example
-^^^^^^^
-
-Consider a source tree containing a ``foo.h.in`` file:
-
-.. code-block:: c
-
- #cmakedefine FOO_ENABLE
- #cmakedefine FOO_STRING "@FOO_STRING@"
-
-An adjacent ``CMakeLists.txt`` may use ``configure_file`` to
-configure the header:
-
-.. code-block:: cmake
-
- option(FOO_ENABLE "Enable Foo" ON)
- if(FOO_ENABLE)
- set(FOO_STRING "foo")
- endif()
- configure_file(foo.h.in foo.h @ONLY)
-
-This creates a ``foo.h`` in the build directory corresponding to
-this source directory. If the ``FOO_ENABLE`` option is on, the
-configured file will contain:
-
-.. code-block:: c
-
- #define FOO_ENABLE
- #define FOO_STRING "foo"
-
-Otherwise it will contain:
-
-.. code-block:: c
-
- /* #undef FOO_ENABLE */
- /* #undef FOO_STRING */
-
-One may then use the :command:`include_directories` command to
-specify the output directory as an include directory:
-
-.. code-block:: cmake
-
- include_directories(${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR})
-
-so that sources may include the header as ``#include <foo.h>``.
