Setting the standard level should not affect the extensions, and the compiler's default mode includes extensions. There is a separate property for extensions: https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.9/prop_tgt/CXX_EXTENSIONS.html It is ON by default since most compilers have extensions on by default. -Brad -- Powered by www.kitware.com Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Kitware offers various services to support the CMake community.
