.. code-block:: cmake

load_command(COMMAND_NAME <loc1> [loc2 ...])

The given locations are searched for a library whose name is cmCOMMAND_NAME. If found, it is loaded as a module and the command is added to the set of available CMake commands. Usually, :command:try_compile is used before this command to compile the module. If the command is successfully loaded a variable named CMAKE_LOADED_COMMAND_<COMMAND_NAME> will be set to the full path of the module that was loaded. Otherwise the variable will not be set.
