CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTOGEN_TARGET¶
New in version 3.14.
Switch to enable generation of a global autogen target.
When CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTOGEN_TARGET is enabled, a custom target
autogen is generated. This target depends on all AUTOMOC and
AUTOUIC generated <ORIGIN>_autogen targets in the project.
By building the global autogen target, all AUTOMOC and
AUTOUIC files in the project will be generated.
The name of the global autogen target can be changed by setting
CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTOGEN_TARGET_NAME.
By default CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTOGEN_TARGET is unset.
See the 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 AUTOGEN_ORIGIN_DEPENDS on the respective origin targets.
