target_sources -------------- .. versionadded:: 3.1 Add sources to a target. .. code-block:: cmake target_sources( [items1...] [ [items2...] ...]) Specifies sources to use when building a target and/or its dependents. The named ```` must have been created by a command such as :command:`add_executable` or :command:`add_library` or :command:`add_custom_target` and must not be an :ref:`ALIAS target `. .. versionchanged:: 3.13 Relative source file paths are interpreted as being relative to the current source directory (i.e. :variable:`CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR`). See policy :policy:`CMP0076`. .. versionadded:: 3.20 ```` can be a custom target. The ``INTERFACE``, ``PUBLIC`` and ``PRIVATE`` keywords are required to specify the scope of the items following them. ``PRIVATE`` and ``PUBLIC`` items will populate the :prop_tgt:`SOURCES` property of ````, which are used when building the target itself. ``PUBLIC`` and ``INTERFACE`` items will populate the :prop_tgt:`INTERFACE_SOURCES` property of ````, which are used when building dependents. The following arguments specify sources. Repeated calls for the same ```` append items in the order called. The targets created by :command:`add_custom_target` can only have ``PRIVATE`` scope. .. versionadded:: 3.3 Allow exporting targets with :prop_tgt:`INTERFACE_SOURCES`. .. versionadded:: 3.11 Allow setting ``INTERFACE`` items on :ref:`IMPORTED targets `. Arguments to ``target_sources`` may use "generator expressions" with the syntax ``$<...>``. See the :manual:`cmake-generator-expressions(7)` manual for available expressions. See the :manual:`cmake-buildsystem(7)` manual for more on defining buildsystem properties.
