| .. versionadded:: 3.29 | |
| Specify which linker will be used for the link step. | |
| This variable is used to initialize the :prop_tgt:`LINKER_TYPE` property | |
| on each target created by a call to :command:`add_library` or | |
| :command:`add_executable`. It is meaningful only for targets having a | |
| link step. If set, its value is also used by the :command:`try_compile` | |
| command. | |
