CheckOBJCXXSourceRuns

Added in version 3.16.

Check once if given Objective-C++ source compiles and links into an executable and can subsequently be run.

check_objcxx_source_runs
check_objcxx_source_runs(<code> <resultVar>)

Check once that the source supplied in <code> can be built, linked as an executable, and then run. The <code> must contain at least a main() function.

The result is stored in the internal cache variable specified by <resultVar>. Success of build and run is indicated by boolean true. Failure to build or run is indicated by boolean false such as an empty string or an error message.

See also check_source_runs() for a more general command syntax.

The compile and link commands can be influenced by setting any of the following variables prior to calling check_objcxx_source_runs()

CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS

String of additional flags to pass to the compiler. The string must be space-delimited--a ;-list will not work. The contents of CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS and its associated configuration-specific variable are automatically added to the compiler command before the contents of CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS.

CMAKE_REQUIRED_DEFINITIONS

A ;-list of compiler definitions of the form -DFOO or -DFOO=bar. A definition for the name specified by <resultVar> will also be added automatically.

CMAKE_REQUIRED_INCLUDES

A ;-list of header search paths to pass to the compiler. These will be the only header search paths used--the contents of the INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES directory property will be ignored.

CMAKE_REQUIRED_LINK_OPTIONS

Added in version 3.14.

A ;-list of options to add to the link command (see try_compile() for further details).

CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES

A ;-list of libraries to add to the link command. These can be the name of system libraries or they can be Imported Targets (see try_compile() for further details).

CMAKE_REQUIRED_LINK_DIRECTORIES

Added in version 3.31.

A ;-list of libraries search paths to pass to the linker (see try_compile() for further details).

CMAKE_REQUIRED_QUIET

Added in version 3.1.

If this variable evaluates to a boolean true value, all status messages associated with the check will be suppressed.
