LOCATION_<CONFIG>

Read-only property providing a target location on disk.

A read-only property that indicates where a target’s main file is located on disk for the configuration <CONFIG>. The property is defined only for library and executable targets. An imported target may provide a set of configurations different from that of the importing project. By default CMake looks for an exact-match but otherwise uses an arbitrary available configuration. Use the MAP_IMPORTED_CONFIG_<CONFIG> property to map imported configurations explicitly.

Do not set properties that affect the location of a target after reading this property. These include properties whose names match (RUNTIME|LIBRARY|ARCHIVE)_OUTPUT_(NAME|DIRECTORY)(_<CONFIG>)?, (IMPLIB_)?(PREFIX|SUFFIX), or LINKER_LANGUAGE. Failure to follow this rule is not diagnosed and leaves the location of the target undefined.
