Re: _CHECK_SYMBOL_EXISTS?

 

Hey Adam,

According to the latest cmake (3.11) docs[1], CheckCXXSymbolExists.cmake
still contains a CHECK_SYMBOL_EXISTS command.  This has been around for
a really long time, I'm not sure why you would be having issues with
this now unless you have a broken cmake install.
