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