# CFLAGS

This is a CMake Environment Variable. Its initial value is taken from the calling process environment.

Default compilation flags to be used when compiling `C` files. Will only be used by CMake on the first configuration to determine `CC` default compilation flags, after which the value for `CFLAGS` is stored in the cache as `CMAKE_C_FLAGS`. For any configuration run (including the first), the environment variable will be ignored if the `CMAKE_C_FLAGS` variable is defined.
