AUTOMOC_MACRO_NAMES¶
New in version 3.10.
A semicolon-separated list list of macro names used by
AUTOMOC
to determine if a C++ file needs to be processed by moc
.
This property is only used if the AUTOMOC
property is ON
for this target.
When running AUTOMOC
, CMake searches for the strings listed in
AUTOMOC_MACRO_NAMES
in C++ source and header files.
If any of the strings is found
as the first non space string on a new line or
as the first non space string after a
{
on a new line,
then the file will be processed by moc
.
By default AUTOMOC_MACRO_NAMES
is initialized from
CMAKE_AUTOMOC_MACRO_NAMES
.
See the cmake-qt(7)
manual for more information on using CMake
with Qt.
Example¶
In this case the Q_OBJECT
macro is hidden inside another macro
called CUSTOM_MACRO
. To let CMake know that source files that contain
CUSTOM_MACRO
need to be moc
processed, we call:
set_property(TARGET tgt APPEND PROPERTY AUTOMOC_MACRO_NAMES "CUSTOM_MACRO")
