CMP0016
-------

target_link_libraries() reports error if its only argument is not a target.

In CMake 2.8.2 and lower the target_link_libraries() command silently
ignored if it was called with only one argument, and this argument
wasn't a valid target.  In CMake 2.8.3 and above it reports an error
in this case.

This policy was introduced in CMake version 2.8.3.  CMake version
|release| warns when the policy is not set and uses OLD behavior.  Use
the cmake_policy command to set it to OLD or NEW explicitly.

Help: Document explicitly that policy OLD behavior is deprecated The most likely documentation page a project author will read in response to a policy warning is the page for the policy itself. Add to every policy documentation page a note explicitly stating that the OLD behavior is deprecated. Also mention this in the cmake_policy() command documentation that explains how to set a policy to OLD. Suggested-by: Fraser Hutchison <fraser.hutchison@gmail.com> 2015-06-09 16:29:41 +03:00
