+get_target_property
+-------------------
+
+Get a property from a target.
+
+::
+
+ get_target_property(VAR target property)
+
+Get a property from a target. The value of the property is stored in
+the variable VAR. If the property is not found, VAR will be set to
+"NOTFOUND". Use set_target_properties to set 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.
+
+See also the more general get_property() command.
