This +allows CMake itself to automatically link executables which link to Qt +to the qtmain.lib library when using IMPORTED Qt targets. For +applications already linking to qtmain.lib, this should have little +impact. For applications which supply their own alternative WinMain +implementation and for applications which use the QAxServer library, +this automatic linking will need to be disabled as per the +documentation. + +The OLD behavior for this policy is not to link executables to +qtmain.lib automatically when they link to the QtCore IMPORTED target. +The NEW behavior for this policy is to link executables to qtmain.lib +automatically when they link to QtCore IMPORTED target. + +This policy was introduced in CMake version 2.8.11. CMake version +|release| warns when the policy is not set and uses OLD behavior. Use +the cmake_policy command to set it to OLD or NEW explicitly. + +.. include:: DEPRECATED.txt |
