| .. versionadded:: 3.1 |
| |
| List :genex:`TARGET_OBJECTS` in SOURCES target property. |
| |
| CMake 3.0 and lower did not include the ``TARGET_OBJECTS`` |
| :manual:`generator expression <cmake-generator-expressions(7)>` when |
| returning the :prop_tgt:`SOURCES` target property. |
| |
| Configure-time CMake code is not able to handle generator expressions. If |
| using the :prop_tgt:`SOURCES` target property at configure time, it may be |
| necessary to first remove generator expressions using the |
| :command:`string(GENEX_STRIP)` command. Generate-time CMake code such as |
| :command:`file(GENERATE)` can handle the content without stripping. |
| |
| The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is to omit ``TARGET_OBJECTS`` |
| expressions from the :prop_tgt:`SOURCES` target property. The ``NEW`` |
| behavior for this policy is to include ``TARGET_OBJECTS`` expressions |
| in the output. |
