FRAMEWORKΒΆ

Build SHARED or STATIC library as Framework Bundle on the macOS and iOS.

If such a library target has this property set to TRUE it will be built as a framework when built on the macOS and iOS. It will have the directory structure required for a framework and will be suitable to be used with the -framework option. This property is initialized by the value of the CMAKE_FRAMEWORK variable if it is set when a target is created.

To customize Info.plist file in the framework, use MACOSX_FRAMEWORK_INFO_PLIST target property.

For macOS see also the FRAMEWORK_VERSION target property.

add_library(dynamicFramework SHARED
            dynamicFramework.c
            dynamicFramework.h
