<p>The <span class="target" id="index-1-module:FindOpenGL"></span><a class="reference internal" href="../module/FindOpenGL.html#module:FindOpenGL" title="FindOpenGL"><code class="xref cmake cmake-module docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">FindOpenGL</span></code></a> module provides an <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">OpenGL::GL</span></code> target and an
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">OPENGL_LIBRARIES</span></code> variable for projects to use for legacy GL interfaces.
When both a legacy GL library (e.g. <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">libGL.so</span></code>) and GLVND libraries
for OpenGL and GLX (e.g. <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">libOpenGL.so</span></code> and <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">libGLX.so</span></code>) are available,
the module must choose between them. It documents an <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">OpenGL_GL_PREFERENCE</span></code>
variable that can be used to specify an explicit preference. When no such
preference is set, the module must choose a default preference.</p>
<p>CMake 3.11 and above prefer to choose GLVND libraries. This policy provides
compatibility with projects that expect the legacy GL library to be used.</p>
<p>The <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">OLD</span></code> behavior for this policy is to set <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">OpenGL_GL_PREFERENCE</span></code> to
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">LEGACY</span></code>. The <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">NEW</span></code> behavior for this policy is to set
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">OpenGL_GL_PREFERENCE</span></code> to <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">GLVND</span></code>.</p>
<p>This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.11. CMake version
3.23.1 warns when the policy is not set and uses <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">OLD</span></code> behavior.
Use the <span class="target" id="index-0-command:cmake_policy"></span><a class="reference internal" href="../command/cmake_policy.html#command:cmake_policy" title="cmake_policy"><code class="xref cmake cmake-command docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">cmake_policy()</span></code></a> command to set it to <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">OLD</span></code> or <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">NEW</span></code>
