Handles various common platform-specific tasks associated with Qt targets.
The command is defined in the Core
component of the Qt6
package, which can be loaded like so:
find_package(Qt6 REQUIRED COMPONENTS Core)
This command was introduced in Qt 6.2.
qt_finalize_target(target)
If versionless commands are disabled, use qt6_finalize_target()
instead. It supports the same set of arguments as this command.
After a target is created, further processing or finalization steps are sometimes needed. The steps to perform depend on the platform, the type of target, and on various properties of the target. These steps are
expected to be performed within the same directory scope as the one in which the target
was created, so this command should also be called from that same directory scope.
This command is ordinarily invoked as part of a call to qt_add_executable() or qt_add_library(). The timing of when that call takes place and when it might need to be called explicitly by a project is discussed in the documentation of those commands.
For executable targets, qt_finalize_target()
implements the logic described in the subsections below, as appropriate for the platform and target provided. Later Qt releases may expand finalization processing
further.
Some internal processing is performed to facilitate automatic linking of Qt plugins. This is especially important if using a statically built Qt or a CMake version earlier than 3.21.
target
.Create ${target}.html
(a target-specific wasm_shell.html
file), qtloader.js
and qtlogo.svg
files in the CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR
.
Finalization attempts to provide sensible values for the following target properties if they are not already set, and their corresponding CMAKE_...
variable is also not set:
XCODE_ATTRIBUTE_DEVELOPMENT_TEAM
XCODE_ATTRIBUTE_PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER
MACOSX_BUNDLE_GUI_IDENTIFIER
If required, the QT_NO_SET_XCODE_DEVELOPMENT_TEAM_ID variable can be used to disable setting XCODE_ATTRIBUTE_DEVELOPMENT_TEAM
, and the
QT_NO_SET_XCODE_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER variable can be used to disable setting XCODE_ATTRIBUTE_PRODUCT_BUNDLE_IDENTIFIER
and
MACOSX_BUNDLE_GUI_IDENTIFIER
.
As of this Qt version, finalization for library targets does not perform any processing. Future Qt versions may add finalization processing for libraries, so you should ensure finalization is still invoked in the expected way.
See also qt_set_finalizer_mode().
