| |
| :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_LINK_FLAGS` adds link flags to all target types. |
| |
| In CMake 4.2 and below, :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_LINK_FLAGS` held flags |
| relevant to target creation and applied when linking executables only. It was |
| undocumented and originally intended for internal use only, but still |
| available for projects and users to set in order to control linking behavior. |
| |
| CMake 4.3 and above repurpose this variable to add per-language link flags for |
| all target types that link (executables, shared libraries, and module |
| libraries). |
| |
| This policy provides compatibility with projects that relied on this variable |
| and have not been updated to be aware of the change. |
| |
| The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is to apply |
| :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_LINK_FLAGS` to invocations of the compiler which drive |
| linking for executables only. The ``NEW`` behavior is to apply the flags to |
| all target types. |
