Operation AND on Perl regex could be expressed as:

perl -e "q{some stuff and things} =~ /(?=some)(?=stuff)(?=things)/ ? print 'yes' : print 'no'" prints 'no'

(See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/469913/regular-expressions-is-there-an-and-operator for more details)

Looks this syntax is not supported by Cmake. This example:

if(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE MATCHES (?=x86_64)(?=linux))
#do stuff
endif()

Give error on compilation:

CMake Error at configurations.cmake:137 (if):                             
  if given arguments:                                                     
                                                                          
    "CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE" "MATCHES" "(" "?=x86_64" ")" "(" "?=linux" ")"
                                                                          
  Unknown arguments specified                                             

And now i see only way for AND:

if(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE MATCHES x86_64 AND CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE MATCHES linux)
#do stuff
endif()

It looks bad on two AND operands and will looks ugly on more operands
