AUTOGEN_ORIGIN_DEPENDS
|
||
|
----------------------
|
||
|
|
||
|
Switch for forwarding origin target dependencies to the corresponding
|
||
|
``_autogen`` target.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Targets which have their :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` or :prop_tgt:`AUTOUIC` property
|
||
|
``ON`` have a corresponding ``_autogen`` target which generates
|
||
|
``moc`` and ``uic`` files. As this ``_autogen`` target is created at
|
||
|
generate-time, it is not possible to define dependencies of it using
|
||
|
e.g. :command:`add_dependencies`. Instead the
|
||
|
:prop_tgt:`AUTOGEN_ORIGIN_DEPENDS` target property decides whether the origin
|
||
|
target dependencies should be forwarded to the ``_autogen`` target or not.
|
||
|
|
||
|
By default :prop_tgt:`AUTOGEN_ORIGIN_DEPENDS` is initialized from
|
||
|
:variable:`CMAKE_AUTOGEN_ORIGIN_DEPENDS` which is ``ON`` by default.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In total the dependencies of the ``_autogen`` target are composed from
|
||
|
|
||
|
- forwarded origin target dependencies
|
||
|
(enabled by default via :prop_tgt:`AUTOGEN_ORIGIN_DEPENDS`)
|
||
|
- additional user defined dependencies from :prop_tgt:`AUTOGEN_TARGET_DEPENDS`
|
||
|
|
||
|
See the :manual:`cmake-qt(7)` manual for more information on using CMake
|
||
|
with Qt.

Note

^^^^
|
||
|
|
||
|
Disabling :prop_tgt:`AUTOGEN_ORIGIN_DEPENDS` is useful to avoid building of
|
||
|
origin target dependencies when building the ``_autogen`` target only.
|
||
|
This is especially interesting when a
|
||
|
:variable:`global autogen target <CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTOGEN_TARGET>` is enabled.
|
||
|
|
||
|
When the ``_autogen`` target doesn't require all the origin target's
|
||
|
dependencies, and :prop_tgt:`AUTOGEN_ORIGIN_DEPENDS` is disabled, it might be
|
||
|
necessary to extend :prop_tgt:`AUTOGEN_TARGET_DEPENDS` to add missing
|
||
|
dependencies.
