Get a property from a target.
.. code-block:: cmake
get_target_property(<variable> <target> <property>)
Get a property from a target. The value of the property is stored in the
specified <variable>. If the target property is not found, <variable>
will be set to <variable>-NOTFOUND. If the target property was defined to
be an INHERITED property (see :command:define_property), the search will
include the relevant parent scopes, as described for the
:command:define_property command.
Use :command:set_target_properties to set target property values.
Properties are usually used to control how a target is built, but some
query the target instead. This command can get properties for any
target so far created. The targets do not need to be in the current
CMakeLists.txt file.
