Currently +Qt4 and Qt5 are supported. + +When this property is ``ON``, CMake will scan the source files at build time +and invoke ``uic`` accordingly. If an ``#include`` statement like +``#include "ui_foo.h"`` is found in ``foo.cpp``, a ``foo.ui`` file is +expected next to ``foo.cpp``, and ``uic`` is run on the ``foo.ui`` file. +This property is initialized by the value of the :variable:`CMAKE_AUTOUIC` +variable if it is set when a target is created. + +Additional command line options for ``uic`` can be set via the +:prop_sf:`AUTOUIC_OPTIONS` source file property on the ``foo.ui`` file. +The global property :prop_gbl:`AUTOGEN_TARGETS_FOLDER` can be used to group the +autouic targets together in an IDE, e.g. in MSVS. + +See the :manual:`cmake-qt(7)` manual for more information on using CMake +with Qt. |
