| COMPILE_OPTIONS |
| --------------- |
| |
| List of options to pass to the compiler. |
| |
| This property holds a :ref:`semicolon-separated list <CMake Language Lists>` |
| of options specified so far for its target. Use the |
| :command:`target_compile_options` command to append more options. |
| The options will be added after after flags in the |
| :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS` and :variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS_<CONFIG>` |
| variables, but before those propagated from dependencies by the |
| :prop_tgt:`INTERFACE_COMPILE_OPTIONS` property. |
| |
| This property is initialized by the :prop_dir:`COMPILE_OPTIONS` directory |
| property when a target is created, and is used by the generators to set |
| the options for the compiler. |
| |
| Contents of ``COMPILE_OPTIONS`` may use "generator expressions" with the |
| syntax ``$<...>``. See the :manual:`cmake-generator-expressions(7)` manual |
| for available expressions. See the :manual:`cmake-buildsystem(7)` manual |
| for more on defining buildsystem properties. |
