INTERFACE_SOURCES

.. versionadded:: 3.1

List of interface sources to compile into consuming targets.

Targets may populate this property to publish the sources for consuming targets to compile. The :command:target_sources command populates this property with values given to the PUBLIC and INTERFACE keywords. Projects may also get and set the property directly.

When target dependencies are specified using :command:target_link_libraries, CMake will read this property from all target dependencies to determine the sources of the consumer.

Contents of INTERFACE_SOURCES may use "generator expressions" with the syntax $<...>. See the :manual:cmake-generator-expressions(7) manual for available expressions. See the :manual:cmake-buildsystem(7) manual for more on defining buildsystem properties.
