By default +only a limited number of properties are exported. This property can be used +to additionally export other properties as well. + +Properties starting with ``INTERFACE_`` or ``IMPORTED_`` are not allowed as +they are reserved for internal CMake use. + +Properties containing generator expressions are also not allowed. + +.. note:: + + Since CMake 3.19, :ref:`Interface Libraries` may have arbitrary + target properties. If a project exports an interface library + with custom properties, the resulting package may not work with + dependents configured by older versions of CMake that reject the + custom properties. |
