CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTOGEN_TARGET | |
--------------------------- | |
.. versionadded:: 3.14 | |
Switch to enable generation of a global ``autogen`` target. | |
When :variable:`CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTOGEN_TARGET` is enabled, a custom target | |
``autogen`` is generated. This target depends on all :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` and | |
:prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC` generated ``<ORIGIN>_autogen`` targets in the project. | |
By building the global ``autogen`` target, all :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` and | |
:prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC` files in the project will be generated. | |
The name of the global ``autogen`` target can be changed by setting | |
:variable:`CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTOGEN_TARGET_NAME`. | |
By default :variable:`CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTOGEN_TARGET` is unset. | |
See the :manual:`cmake-qt(7)` manual for more information on using CMake | |
with Qt. | |
Note | |
^^^^ | |
``<ORIGIN>_autogen`` targets by default inherit their origin target's | |
dependencies. This might result in unintended dependency target | |
builds when only ``<ORIGIN>_autogen`` targets are built. A solution is to | |
disable :prop_tgt:`AUTOGEN_ORIGIN_DEPENDS` on the respective origin targets. |
