<p>Find Fast Lexical Analyzer (Flex) executable and provides a macro
to generate custom build rules</p>
<p>The module defines the following variables:</p>
<div class="highlight-none notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>FLEX_FOUND - True is flex executable is found
FLEX_EXECUTABLE - the path to the flex executable
FLEX_VERSION - the version of flex
FLEX_LIBRARIES - The flex libraries
FLEX_INCLUDE_DIRS - The path to the flex headers
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>The minimum required version of flex can be specified using the
standard syntax, e.g.  <span class="target" id="index-0-command:find_package"></span><a class="reference internal" href="../command/find_package.html#command:find_package" title="find_package"><code class="xref cmake cmake-command docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">find_package(FLEX</span> <span class="pre">2.5.13)</span></code></a></p>
<p>If flex is found on the system, the module provides the macro:</p>
<div class="highlight-none notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>FLEX_TARGET(Name FlexInput FlexOutput
            [COMPILE_FLAGS &lt;string&gt;]
            [DEFINES_FILE &lt;string&gt;]
            )
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>which creates a custom command to generate the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">FlexOutput</span></code> file from
the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">FlexInput</span></code> file.  Name is an alias used to get details of this custom
command.  If <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">COMPILE_FLAGS</span></code> option is specified, the next
parameter is added to the flex command line.</p>
<div class="versionadded">
<p><span class="versionmodified added">New in version 3.5: </span>If flex is configured to
output a header file, the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">DEFINES_FILE</span></code> option may be used to specify its
name.</p>
</div>
<div class="versionchanged">
<p><span class="versionmodified changed">Changed in version 3.17: </span>When <span class="target" id="index-0-policy:CMP0098"></span><a class="reference internal" href="../policy/CMP0098.html#policy:CMP0098" title="CMP0098"><code class="xref cmake cmake-policy docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">CMP0098</span></code></a> is set to <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">NEW</span></code>, <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">flex</span></code> runs in the
<span class="target" id="index-0-variable:CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR"></span><a class="reference internal" href="../variable/CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR.html#variable:CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR" title="CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR"><code class="xref cmake cmake-variable docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR</span></code></a> directory.</p>
</div>
<p>The macro defines the following variables:</p>
<div class="highlight-none notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>FLEX_${Name}_DEFINED - true is the macro ran successfully
FLEX_${Name}_OUTPUTS - the source file generated by the custom rule, an
alias for FlexOutput
FLEX_${Name}_INPUT - the flex source file, an alias for ${FlexInput}
FLEX_${Name}_OUTPUT_HEADER - the header flex output, if any.
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Flex scanners often use tokens defined by Bison: the code generated
by Flex depends of the header generated by Bison.  This module also
defines a macro:</p>
<div class="highlight-none notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>ADD_FLEX_BISON_DEPENDENCY(FlexTarget BisonTarget)
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>which adds the required dependency between a scanner and a parser
where <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">FlexTarget</span></code> and <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">BisonTarget</span></code> are the first parameters of
respectively <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">FLEX_TARGET</span></code> and <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">BISON_TARGET</span></code> macros.</p>
<div class="highlight-none notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>====================================================================
Example:
</pre></div>
</div>
<div class="highlight-none notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>find_package(BISON)
find_package(FLEX)
</pre></div>
</div>
