For +executables this is the location of the executable file. For bundles +on macOS this is the location of the executable file inside +``Contents/MacOS`` under the application bundle folder. For ``STATIC`` +libraries and modules this is the location of the library or module. +For ``SHARED`` libraries on non-DLL platforms this is the location of the +shared library. For frameworks on macOS this is the location of the +library file symlink just inside the framework folder. For DLLs this +is the location of the ``.dll`` part of the library. For ``UNKNOWN`` +libraries this is the location of the file to be linked. Ignored for +non-imported targets. + +The ``IMPORTED_LOCATION`` target property may be overridden for a +given configuration ``<CONFIG>`` by the configuration-specific +:prop_tgt:`IMPORTED_LOCATION_<CONFIG>` target property. Furthermore, +the :prop_tgt:`MAP_IMPORTED_CONFIG_<CONFIG>` target property may be +used to map between a project's configurations and those of an imported +target. If none of these is set then the name of any other configuration +listed in the :prop_tgt:`IMPORTED_CONFIGURATIONS` target property may be +selected and its :prop_tgt:`IMPORTED_LOCATION_<CONFIG>` value used. + +To get the location of an imported target read one of the :prop_tgt:`LOCATION` +or ``LOCATION_<CONFIG>`` properties. + +For platforms with import libraries (e.g. Windows) see also +:prop_tgt:`IMPORTED_IMPLIB`. |
