------- | |
Display a message to the user. | |
:: | |
message([<mode>] "message to display" ...) | |
The optional ``<mode>`` keyword determines the type of message: | |
:: | |
(none) = Important information | |
STATUS = Incidental information | |
WARNING = CMake Warning, continue processing | |
AUTHOR_WARNING = CMake Warning (dev), continue processing | |
SEND_ERROR = CMake Error, continue processing, | |
but skip generation | |
FATAL_ERROR = CMake Error, stop processing and generation | |
DEPRECATION = CMake Deprecation Error or Warning if variable | |
CMAKE_ERROR_DEPRECATED or CMAKE_WARN_DEPRECATED | |
is enabled, respectively, else no message. | |
The CMake command-line tool displays STATUS messages on stdout and all | |
other message types on stderr. The CMake GUI displays all messages in | |
its log area. The interactive dialogs (ccmake and CMakeSetup) show | |
STATUS messages one at a time on a status line and other messages in | |
interactive pop-up boxes. | |
CMake Warning and Error message text displays using a simple markup | |
language. Non-indented text is formatted in line-wrapped paragraphs | |
delimited by newlines. Indented text is considered pre-formatted. |
