6 -----------
8 This module determines the thread library of the system.
10 Imported Targets
11 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
13 .. versionadded:: 3.1
15 This module defines the following :prop_tgt:`IMPORTED` target:
17 ``Threads::Threads``
18   The thread library, if found.
20 Result Variables
21 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
23 The following variables are set:
25 ``Threads_FOUND``
26   If a supported thread library was found.
27 ``CMAKE_THREAD_LIBS_INIT``
28   The thread library to use. This may be empty if the thread functions
29   are provided by the system libraries and no special flags are needed
30   to use them.
31 ``CMAKE_USE_WIN32_THREADS_INIT``
32   If the found thread library is the win32 one.
33 ``CMAKE_USE_PTHREADS_INIT``
34   If the found thread library is pthread compatible.
35 ``CMAKE_HP_PTHREADS_INIT``
36   If the found thread library is the HP thread library.
38 Variables Affecting Behavior
39 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
41 .. variable:: THREADS_PREFER_PTHREAD_FLAG
43   .. versionadded:: 3.1
45   If the use of the -pthread compiler and linker flag is preferred then
46   the caller can set this variable to TRUE. The compiler flag can only be
47   used with the imported target. Use of both the imported target as well
48   as this switch is highly recommended for new code.
50   This variable has no effect if the system libraries provide the
51   thread functions, i.e. when ``CMAKE_THREAD_LIBS_INIT`` will be empty.
