CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL
----------------

This variable exists only for backwards compatibility.
It contains the same value as :variable:`CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM`.
Use that variable instead.

Prefer CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM over CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL (#14548) Historically these were both added for the Makefile and Visual Studio generators, respectively. Later the VS generators started using the CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM cache entry to find the IDE build tool, and the CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL was simply set as an alias. Fix the documentation to explain that CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM is the modern variable and that CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL is the compatibility alias, not the other way around. Replace uses of CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL with CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM in CMake-provided modules. Nothing needs to lookup CMAKE_BUILD_TOOL in the cache, so simply set it as a normal variable. 2013-11-13 20:33:17 +04:00			`This variable exists only for backwards compatibility.`
