CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTOGEN_TARGETΒΆ

New in version 3.14.

Switch to enable generation of a global autogen target.

When CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTOGEN_TARGET is enabled, a custom target autogen is generated. This target depends on all AUTOMOC and AUTOUIC generated The <ORIGIN>_autogen target targets in the project. By building the global autogen target, all AUTOMOC and AUTOUIC files in the project will be generated.

The name of the global autogen target can be changed by setting CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTOGEN_TARGET_NAME.

By default CMAKE_GLOBAL_AUTOGEN_TARGET is unset.

See the cmake-qt(7) manual for more information on using CMake with Qt.

Note

The <ORIGIN>_autogen target targets by default inherit their origin target's dependencies. This might result in unintended dependency target builds when only The <ORIGIN>_autogen target targets are built. A solution is to disable AUTOGEN_ORIGIN_DEPENDS on the respective origin targets.
