on Apple platforms. Source files listed in the target with this property
set will be copied to a directory inside the bundle or framework content

CFBundles the content folder is <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">&lt;name&gt;.bundle/Contents</span></code> (unless the
extension is changed).

If
the specified location is a sub-folder of <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Resources</span></code>, it will be placed
into the respective sub-folder. Note: For iOS Apple uses a flat bundle layout
where no <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Resources</span></code> folder exist. Therefore CMake strips the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Resources</span></code>
folder name from the specified location.</p>
