Specify a CMake user-wide configuration directory for :manual:cmake-file-api(7) and :manual:cmake-instrumentation(7) queries.

If this environment variable is not set, the default user-wide configuration directory is platform-specific:

  • Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\CMake
  • macOS: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/CMake if set, otherwise $HOME/Library/Application Support/CMake
  • Linux/Other: $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/cmake if set, otherwise $HOME/.config/cmake
