| Automatically link Qt executables to qtmain target on Windows. |
| |
| CMake 2.8.10 and lower required users of Qt to always specify a link |
| dependency to the qtmain.lib static library manually on Windows. |
| CMake 2.8.11 gained the ability to evaluate generator expressions |
| while determining the link dependencies from IMPORTED targets. This |
| allows CMake itself to automatically link executables which link to Qt |
| to the qtmain.lib library when using IMPORTED Qt targets. For |
| applications already linking to qtmain.lib, this should have little |
| impact. For applications which supply their own alternative WinMain |
| implementation and for applications which use the QAxServer library, |
| this automatic linking will need to be disabled as per the |
| documentation. |
| |
| The OLD behavior for this policy is not to link executables to |
| qtmain.lib automatically when they link to the QtCore IMPORTED target. |
| The NEW behavior for this policy is to link executables to qtmain.lib |
| automatically when they link to QtCore IMPORTED target. |
| |
| This policy was introduced in CMake version 2.8.11. CMake version |
| |release| warns when the policy is not set and uses OLD behavior. Use |
| the cmake_policy command to set it to OLD or NEW explicitly. |
