qt5_generate_moc
Synopsis
qt5_generate_moc(src_file dest_file [TARGET target])
Description
Creates a rule to call the Meta-Object Compiler (moc) on src_file
and store the output in dest_file
.
Note: This is a low-level macro. See the CMake AUTOMOC Documentation for a more convenient way to let source files be processed with moc
. qt5_wrap_cpp is also similar, but automatically generates a temporary file path for you.
Note: For compatibility with Qt 6, the command is also available under the name qt_generate_moc.
Arguments
You can set an explicit TARGET
. This will make sure that the target properties INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES
and COMPILE_DEFINITIONS
are also used when scanning the source files with moc
.
Examples
qt5_generate_moc(main.cpp main.moc TARGET myapp)
