+CMAKE_<LANG>_IMPLICIT_LINK_DIRECTORIES
+--------------------------------------
+
+Implicit linker search path detected for language <LANG>.
+
+Compilers typically pass directories containing language runtime
+libraries and default library search paths when they invoke a linker.
+These paths are implicit linker search directories for the compiler's
+language. CMake automatically detects these directories for each
+language and reports the results in this variable.
+
+When a library in one of these directories is given by full path to
+target_link_libraries() CMake will generate the -l<name> form on link
+lines to ensure the linker searches its implicit directories for the
+library. Note that some toolchains read implicit directories from an
+environment variable such as LIBRARY_PATH so keep its value consistent
+when operating in a given build tree.
