<p>Boolean specifying whether compiler specific extensions are requested.</p>
<p>This property specifies whether compiler specific extensions should be
used. For some compilers, this results in adding a flag such
as <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">-std=gnu11</span></code> instead of <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">-std=c11</span></code> to the compile line. This
property is <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">ON</span></code> by default. The basic C standard level is
controlled by the <span class="target" id="index-0-prop_tgt:C_STANDARD"></span><a class="reference internal" href="C_STANDARD.html#prop_tgt:C_STANDARD" title="C_STANDARD"><code class="xref cmake cmake-prop_tgt docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">C_STANDARD</span></code></a> target property.</p>
