" ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(binary_dir [source_dir] [EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL] [PREORDER] )\n"
"Add a subdirectory to the build. The binary_dir specified can be "
"relative to the current otuput directory (the typical usage) or "
"absolute. If the source dir is not specified it "
"will be set to the same value as the binary_dir. "
"This will cause any CMakeLists.txt files in the sub directories "
"to be processed by CMake. If the PREORDER flag "
"is specified then this directory will be traversed first by makefile "
"builds, the PRORDER flag has no effect on IDE projects. "
" ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(binary_dir [source_dir]\n"
" [EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL] [PREORDER])\n"
"Add a subdirectory to the build. The binary_dir specifies the "
"directory in which to store the build files. If it is a relative "
"path it will be evaluated with respect to the current output "
"directory (the typical usage), but it may also be an absolute path. "
"The source_dir specifies the directory in which to find the source "
"files. If it is a relative path it will be evaluated with respect "
"to the current source directory, but it may also be an absolute "
"path. If source_dir is not specified the value of binary_dir, "
"before expanding any relative path, will be used (the typical usage). "
"The CMakeLists.txt file in the specified source directory will "
"be processed immediately by CMake before processing in the current "
"input file continues beyond this command.\n"
"The PREORDER flag tells recursive makefile generators to build "
"targets in the subdirectory before those in the current directory. "
"If this flag is not specified then the targets in the current "
"directory are always built first. The PREORDER flag has no meaning "
"for global build system generators.\n"
"If the EXCLUDE_FROM_ALL argument is provided then this subdirectory "
"will not be included in the top level makefile or project file. "
"This is useful for having cmake create makefiles or projects for a "
"set of examples in a project. You would want cmake to generated "
"makefiles or project files for all the examples at the same time, "
"but you would not want them to show up in the top level project or "
"be built each time make is run from the top.";
"will not be included in build by default. Users will have to "
"explicitly start a build in the generated output directory. "
"This is useful for having cmake create a build system for a "
"set of examples in a project. One would want cmake to generate "
"a single build system for all the examples, but one may not want "
"the targets to show up in the main build system.";
