write_file¶
Deprecated. Use the 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: file(WRITE) and 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 configure_file() if you want to
generate input files to CMake.
