This policy provides compatibility for projects that have not +been updated to expect the new behavior. In particular, projects that relied +on the duplicate execution or that did not properly set the :prop_sf:`SYMBOLIC` +source file property may be affected. + +The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is to duplicate custom commands in +dependent targets. The ``NEW`` behavior of this policy is to not duplicate +custom commands in dependent targets. + +This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.19. Unlike many policies, +CMake version |release| does *not* warn when this policy is not set and +simply uses ``OLD`` behavior. + +.. include:: DEPRECATED.txt |
