CMP0100
-------

Let :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` and :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC` process
header files that end with a ``.hh`` extension.

Since version 3.17, CMake processes header files that end with a
``.hh`` extension in :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` and :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC`.
In earlier CMake versions, these header files were ignored by
:prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` and :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC`.

This policy affects how header files that end with a ``.hh`` extension
get treated in :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` and :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC`.

The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is to ignore ``.hh`` header files
in :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` and :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC`.

The ``NEW`` behavior for this policy is to process ``.hh`` header files
in :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` and :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC` just like other header files.

.. note::

  To silence the ``CMP0100`` warning source files can be excluded from
  :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` and :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC` processing by setting the
  source file properties :prop_sf:`SKIP_AUTOMOC`, :prop_sf:`SKIP_AUTOUIC` or
  :prop_sf:`SKIP_AUTOGEN`.

  .. code-block:: cmake

    # Source skip example:
    set_property(SOURCE /path/to/file1.hh PROPERTY SKIP_AUTOMOC ON)
    set_property(SOURCE /path/to/file2.hh PROPERTY SKIP_AUTOUIC ON)
    set_property(SOURCE /path/to/file3.hh PROPERTY SKIP_AUTOGEN ON)

This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.17.0.  CMake version
|release| warns when the policy is not set and uses ``OLD`` behavior.
Use the :command:`cmake_policy` command to set it to ``OLD`` or ``NEW``
explicitly.
