get_source_file_property
|
|
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Get a property for a source file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: cmake
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
get_source_file_property(<variable> <file>
|
|
|
|
[DIRECTORY <dir> | TARGET_DIRECTORY <target>]
|
|
|
|
<property>)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Gets a property from a source file. The value of the property is
|
|
|
|
stored in the specified ``<variable>``. If the source property is not found,
|
|
|
|
the behavior depends on whether it has been defined to be an ``INHERITED``
|
|
|
|
property or not (see :command:`define_property`). Non-inherited properties
|
|
|
|
will set ``variable`` to ``NOTFOUND``, whereas inherited properties will search
|
|
|
|
the relevant parent scope as described for the :command:`define_property`
|
|
|
|
command and if still unable to find the property, ``variable`` will be set to
|
|
|
|
an empty string.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, the source file's property will be read from the current source
|
|
|
|
directory's scope, but this can be overridden with one of the following
|
|
|
|
sub-options:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``DIRECTORY <dir>``
|
|
|
|
The source file property will be read from the ``<dir>`` directory's
|
|
|
|
scope. CMake must already know about that source directory, either by
|
|
|
|
having added it through a call to :command:`add_subdirectory` or ``<dir>``
|
|
|
|
being the top level source directory. Relative paths are treated as
|
|
|
|
relative to the current source directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
``TARGET_DIRECTORY <target>``
|
|
|
|
The source file property will be read from the directory scope in which
|
|
|
|
``<target>`` was created (``<target>`` must therefore already exist).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use :command:`set_source_files_properties` to set property values. Source
|
|
|
|
file properties usually control how the file is built. One property that is
|
|
|
|
always there is :prop_sf:`LOCATION`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
See also the more general :command:`get_property` command.
