qt_generate_moc
Calls moc on an input file.
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 5.0.
Synopsis
qt_generate_moc(src_file dest_file
[TARGET target])If versionless commands are disabled, use qt6_generate_moc() instead. It supports the same set of arguments as this command.
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. qt_wrap_cpp is also similar, but automatically generates a temporary file path for you.
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)
