Consequently, the associated ``GENERATED`` +property is now visible from any directory scope, not only from the scope +for which it was set. + +The ``OLD`` behavior of this policy is to only allow ``GENERATED`` to be +visible from the directory scope for which it was set. The ``NEW`` +behavior on the other hand allows it to be visible from any scope. + +This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.20. CMake version |release| +warns when the policy is not set and uses ``OLD`` behavior. Use the +:command:`cmake_policy` command to set it to ``OLD`` or ``NEW`` explicitly. |
