CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPEΒΆ

Type of target generated for try_compile() calls using the source file signature. Valid values are:

EXECUTABLE

Use add_executable() to name the source file in the generated project. This is the default if no value is given.

STATIC_LIBRARY

Use add_library() with the STATIC option to name the source file in the generated project. This avoids running the linker and is intended for use with cross-compiling toolchains that cannot link without custom flags or linker scripts.
