CMP0033 — CMake 3.31.2 Documentation

# CMP0033

The `export_library_dependencies()` command should not be called.

This command was added in January 2003 to export `<tgt>_LIB_DEPENDS` internal CMake cache entries to a file for installation with a project. This was used at the time to allow transitive link dependencies to work for applications outside of the original build tree of a project. The functionality has been superseded by the `export()` and `install(EXPORT)` commands.

CMake >= 3.0 prefer that this command never be called. The `OLD` behavior for this policy is to allow the command to be called. The `NEW` behavior for this policy is to issue a `FATAL_ERROR` when the command is called.

This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.0. It may be set by `cmake_policy()` or `cmake_minimum_required()`. If it is not set, CMake warns, and uses `OLD` behavior.

Note

The `OLD` behavior of a policy is `deprecated by definition` and may be removed in a future version of CMake.
