| write_file |
| ---------- |
| |
| .. deprecated:: 3.0 |
| |
| Use the :command:`file(WRITE)` command instead. |
| |
| :: |
| |
| write_file(filename "message to write"... [APPEND]) |
| |
| The first argument is the file name, the rest of the arguments are |
| messages to write. If the argument ``APPEND`` is specified, then the |
| message will be appended. |
| |
| NOTE 1: :command:`file(WRITE)` and :command:`file(APPEND)` do exactly |
| the same as this one but add some more functionality. |
| |
| NOTE 2: When using ``write_file`` the produced file cannot be used as an |
| input to CMake (CONFIGURE_FILE, source file ...) because it will lead |
| to an infinite loop. Use :command:`configure_file` if you want to |
| generate input files to CMake. |
