| |
| Get one property from one object in a scope. The first argument |
| specifies the variable in which to store the result. The second |
| argument determines the scope from which to get the property. It must |
| be one of the following: |
| |
| GLOBAL scope is unique and does not accept a name. |
| |
| DIRECTORY scope defaults to the current directory but another |
| directory (already processed by CMake) may be named by full or |
| relative path. |
| |
| TARGET scope must name one existing target. |
| |
| SOURCE scope must name one source file. |
| |
| TEST scope must name one existing test. |
| |
| CACHE scope must name one cache entry. |
| |
| VARIABLE scope is unique and does not accept a name. |
| |
| The required PROPERTY option is immediately followed by the name of |
| the property to get. If the property is not set an empty value is |
| returned. If the SET option is given the variable is set to a boolean |
| value indicating whether the property has been set. If the DEFINED |
| option is given the variable is set to a boolean value indicating |
| whether the property has been defined such as with define_property. |
| If BRIEF_DOCS or FULL_DOCS is given then the variable is set to a |
| string containing documentation for the requested property. If |
| documentation is requested for a property that has not been defined |
| NOTFOUND is returned. |
