<p>Check that the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre"><flag></span></code> is accepted by the compiler without | |
a diagnostic. Stores the result in an internal cache entry | |

<p>This command temporarily sets the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">CMAKE_REQUIRED_DEFINITIONS</span></code> variable | |
and calls the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">check_cxx_source_compiles</span></code> macro from the | |

See documentation of that | |
module for a listing of variables that can otherwise modify the build.</p> | |
<p>A positive result from this check indicates only that the compiler did not | |
issue a diagnostic message when given the flag. Whether the flag has any | |
effect or even a specific one is beyond the scope of this module.</p> | |
