| target_sources |
| -------------- |
| |
| .. versionadded:: 3.1 |
| |
| Add sources to a target. |
| |
| .. code-block:: cmake |
| |
| target_sources(<target> |
| <INTERFACE|PUBLIC|PRIVATE> [items1...] |
| [<INTERFACE|PUBLIC|PRIVATE> [items2...] ...]) |
| |
| Specifies sources to use when building a target and/or its dependents. |
| Relative source file paths are interpreted as being relative to the current |
| source directory (i.e. :variable:`CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR`). The |
| named ``<target>`` must have been created by a command such as |
| :command:`add_executable` or :command:`add_library` or |
| :command:`add_custom_target` and must not be an |
| :ref:`ALIAS target <Alias Targets>`. |
| |
| The ``INTERFACE``, ``PUBLIC`` and ``PRIVATE`` keywords are required to |
| specify the scope of the items following them. ``PRIVATE`` and ``PUBLIC`` |
| items will populate the :prop_tgt:`SOURCES` property of |
| ``<target>``, which are used when building the target itself. |
| ``PUBLIC`` and ``INTERFACE`` items will populate the |
| :prop_tgt:`INTERFACE_SOURCES` property of ``<target>``, which are used |
| when building dependents. (:ref:`IMPORTED targets <Imported Targets>` |
| only support ``INTERFACE`` items because they are not build targets.) |
| The following arguments specify sources. Repeated calls for the same |
| ``<target>`` append items in the order called. The targets created by |
| :command:`add_custom_target` can only have ``PRIVATE`` scope. |
| |
| Arguments to ``target_sources`` may use "generator expressions" |
| with the syntax ``$<...>``. See the :manual:`cmake-generator-expressions(7)` |
| manual for available expressions. See the :manual:`cmake-buildsystem(7)` |
| manual for more on defining buildsystem properties. |
| |
| See also the :policy:`CMP0076` policy for older behavior related to the |
| handling of relative source file paths. |
