Is this a cache variable or a regular variable? Cache variables have this enum-like support in the form of the STRINGS property. Example: set(MYSTRING "A" CACHE STRING "Documentation for the variable") set_property(CACHE MYSTRING PROPERTY STRINGS "A;B") If you need to do this with an ordinary variable, consider using variable_watch().
