    \title Probe Item
    \brief Locates files outside the project.

    A \c Probe item can appear inside a \l{Product Item} and is run prior to building products in
    order to locate dependent headers, libraries, and other files outside the project directory
    whose locations are not known ahead of time. \c Probes are similar to configure scripts.
    \note Because Probes often invoke external processes, which is relatively expensive compared
          to evaluating normal properties, their results are cached. To force re-evaluation
          of a Probe, you can supply the \c{--force-probe-execution} command-line option.
