CMakeCache.txt

CMakeCache.txt is a configuration file generated by CMake during the build setup process. It stores key-value pairs that record settings, options, and paths used to customize the build of software projects. These cached variables speed up subsequent builds by remembering choices like compiler locations, library paths, and build options. Essentially, it acts as a snapshot of the current configuration, allowing CMake and build tools to efficiently manage and reproduce project builds without re-asking for the same information each time.
