-
-Runs the given sequence of one or more commands.
-
-Commands are executed concurrently as a pipeline, with the standard
-output of each process piped to the standard input of the next.
-A single standard error pipe is used for all processes.
-
-Options:
-
-``COMMAND``
- A child process command line.
-
- CMake executes the child process using operating system APIs directly.
- All arguments are passed VERBATIM to the child process.
- No intermediate shell is used, so shell operators such as ``>``
- are treated as normal arguments.
- (Use the ``INPUT_*``, ``OUTPUT_*``, and ``ERROR_*`` options to
- redirect stdin, stdout, and stderr.)
-
- If a sequential execution of multiple commands is required, use multiple
- :command:`execute_process` calls with a single ``COMMAND`` argument.
-
-``WORKING_DIRECTORY``
- The named directory will be set as the current working directory of
- the child processes.
-
-``TIMEOUT``
- After the specified number of seconds (fractions allowed), all unfinished
- child processes will be terminated, and the ``RESULT_VARIABLE`` will be
- set to a string mentioning the "timeout".
-
-``RESULT_VARIABLE``
- The variable will be set to contain the result of last child process.
- This will be an integer return code from the last child or a string
- describing an error condition.
-
-``RESULTS_VARIABLE <variable>``
- The variable will be set to contain the result of all processes as a
- :ref:`semicolon-separated list <CMake Language Lists>`, in order of the
- given ``COMMAND`` arguments. Each entry will be an integer return code
- from the corresponding child or a string describing an error condition.
-
-``OUTPUT_VARIABLE``, ``ERROR_VARIABLE``
- The variable named will be set with the contents of the standard output
- and standard error pipes, respectively. If the same variable is named
- for both pipes their output will be merged in the order produced.
-
-``INPUT_FILE, OUTPUT_FILE``, ``ERROR_FILE``
- The file named will be attached to the standard input of the first
- process, standard output of the last process, or standard error of
- all processes, respectively. If the same file is named for both
- output and error then it will be used for both.
-
-``OUTPUT_QUIET``, ``ERROR_QUIET``
- The standard output or standard error results will be quietly ignored.
-
-``COMMAND_ECHO <where>``
- The command being run will be echo'ed to ``<where>`` with ``<where>``
- being set to one of ``STDERR``, ``STDOUT`` or ``NONE``.
- See the :variable:`CMAKE_EXECUTE_PROCESS_COMMAND_ECHO` variable for a way
- to control the default behavior when this option is not present.
-
-``ENCODING <name>``
- On Windows, the encoding that is used to decode output from the process.
- Ignored on other platforms.
- Valid encoding names are:
-
- ``NONE``
- Perform no decoding. This assumes that the process output is encoded
- in the same way as CMake's internal encoding (UTF-8).
- This is the default.
- ``AUTO``
- Use the current active console's codepage or if that isn't
- available then use ANSI.
- ``ANSI``
- Use the ANSI codepage.
- ``OEM``
- Use the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) code page.
- ``UTF8`` or ``UTF-8``
- Use the UTF-8 codepage. Prior to CMake 3.11.0, only ``UTF8`` was accepted
- for this encoding. In CMake 3.11.0, ``UTF-8`` was added for consistency with
- the `UTF-8 RFC <https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3629>`_ naming convention.
-
-``ECHO_OUTPUT_VARIABLE``, ``ECHO_ERROR_VARIABLE``
- The standard output or standard error will not be exclusively redirected to
- the configured variables.
-
- The output will be duplicated, it will be sent into the configured variables
- and also on standard output or standard error.
-
- This is analogous to the ``tee`` Unix command.
-
-If more than one ``OUTPUT_*`` or ``ERROR_*`` option is given for the
-same pipe the precedence is not specified.
-If no ``OUTPUT_*`` or ``ERROR_*`` options are given the output will
-be shared with the corresponding pipes of the CMake process itself.
-
-The :command:`execute_process` command is a newer more powerful version of
-:command:`exec_program`, but the old command has been kept for compatibility.
-Both commands run while CMake is processing the project prior to build
-system generation. Use :command:`add_custom_target` and
-:command:`add_custom_command` to create custom commands that run at
-build time.
