qt_generate_moc
Synopsis
qt_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.
This command was introduced in Qt 5.15. You can use qt5_generate_moc in older versions of Qt.
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
qt_generate_moc(main.cpp main.moc TARGET myapp)
