This makes sure that +the modules belonging to CMake always get those files included which +they expect, and against which they were developed and tested. In all +other cases, the files found in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH still take +precedence over the ones in the CMake module directory. The OLD +behavior is to always prefer files from CMAKE_MODULE_PATH over files +from the CMake modules directory. + +This policy was introduced in CMake version 2.8.4. CMake version +|release| warns when the policy is not set and uses OLD behavior. Use +the cmake_policy command to set it to OLD or NEW explicitly. + +.. include:: DEPRECATED.txt |
