97 "the matching endfunction, are not invoked until the function "
98 "is invoked. When it is invoked, the commands recorded in the "
99 "function are first modified by replacing formal parameters (${arg1}) "
100 "with the arguments passed, and then invoked as normal commands. In "
101 "addition to referencing the formal parameters you can reference "
102 "the variable ARGC which will be set to the number of arguments "
103 "passed into the function as well as ARGV0 ARGV1 ARGV2 ... which "
104 "will have the actual values of the arguments passed in. This "
105 "facilitates creating functions with optional arguments. Additionally "
106 "ARGV holds the list of all arguments given to the function and ARGN "
107 "holds the list of argument pass the last expected argument."
109 "See the cmake_policy() command documentation for the behavior of "
110 "policies inside functions."
