CMAKE_CXX_KNOWN_FEATURES ------------------------ .. versionadded:: 3.1 List of C++ features known to this version of CMake. The features listed in this global property may be known to be available to the C++ compiler. If the feature is available with the C++ compiler, it will be listed in the :variable:`CMAKE_CXX_COMPILE_FEATURES` variable. The features listed here may be used with the :command:`target_compile_features` command. See the :manual:`cmake-compile-features(7)` manual for information on compile features and a list of supported compilers. The features known to this version of CMake are listed below. High level meta features indicating C++ standard support ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ .. versionadded:: 3.8 The following meta features indicate general support for the associated language standard. It reflects the language support claimed by the compiler, but it does not necessarily imply complete conformance to that standard. ``cxx_std_98`` Compiler mode is at least C++ 98. ``cxx_std_11`` Compiler mode is at least C++ 11. ``cxx_std_14`` Compiler mode is at least C++ 14. ``cxx_std_17`` Compiler mode is at least C++ 17. ``cxx_std_20`` .. versionadded:: 3.12 Compiler mode is at least C++ 20. ``cxx_std_23`` .. versionadded:: 3.20 Compiler mode is at least C++ 23. ``cxx_std_26`` .. versionadded:: 3.25 Compiler mode is at least C++ 26. .. include:: CMAKE_LANG_STD_FLAGS.txt Low level individual compile features ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ For C++ 11 and C++ 14, compilers were sometimes slow to implement certain language features. CMake provided some individual compile features to help projects determine whether specific features were available. These individual features are now less relevant and projects should generally prefer to use the high level meta features instead. Individual compile features are not provided for C++ 17 or later. See the :manual:`cmake-compile-features(7)` manual for further discussion of the use of individual compile features.
