# - Compile and run code to check for C++ features

# This functions compiles a source file under the `cmake` folder
# and adds the corresponding `HAVE_[FILENAME]` flag to the CMake
# environment

#  cxx_feature_check(<FLAG> [<VARIANT>])
#
# - Example
#
# include(CXXFeatureCheck)
# cxx_feature_check(STD_REGEX)
# Requires CMake 2.8.12+
