CheckIncludeFileCXX
-------------------

This module provides a command to check a C++ header file.

Load this module in a CMake project with:

.. code-block:: cmake

  include(CheckIncludeFileCXX)

Commands
^^^^^^^^

This module provides the following command:

.. command:: check_include_file_cxx

  Checks once whether a header file exists and can be included in C++ code:

  .. code-block:: cmake

    check_include_file_cxx(<include> <variable> [<flags>])

  .. rubric:: The arguments are:

  ``<include>``
    A header file to be checked.

  ``<variable>``
    The name of the variable to store the result of the check.  This
    variable will be created as an internal cache variable.

  ``<flags>``
    (Optional) A space-separated string of
    additional compilation flags to be added to the check.  Alternatively,
    flags can be also specified with the ``CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS`` variable
    below.

  .. rubric:: Variables Affecting the Check

  The following variables may be set before calling this command to modify
  the way the check is run:

  .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS.rst

  .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_DEFINITIONS.rst

  .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_INCLUDES.rst

  .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_LINK_OPTIONS.rst

  .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES.rst

  .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_LINK_DIRECTORIES.rst

  .. include:: /module/include/CMAKE_REQUIRED_QUIET.rst

  .. versionadded:: 3.12
    The ``CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES`` variable, if policy :policy:`CMP0075` is
    set to ``NEW``.

Examples
^^^^^^^^

Checking whether the ``C++23`` header ``<stdfloat>`` exists and storing the
check result in the ``HAVE_STDFLOAT_HEADER`` cache variable:

.. code-block:: cmake

  include(CheckIncludeFileCXX)

  check_include_file_cxx(stdfloat HAVE_STDFLOAT_HEADER)

See Also
^^^^^^^^

* The :module:`CheckIncludeFile` module to check for single C header.
* The :module:`CheckIncludeFiles` module to check for one or more C or
  C++ headers at once.
