+LINK_OPTIONS
+------------
+
+List of options to use when linking this target.
+
+This property holds a :ref:`;-list <CMake Language Lists>` of options
+specified so far for its target. Use the :command:`target_link_options`
+command to append more options.
+
+This property is initialized by the :prop_dir:`LINK_OPTIONS` directory
+property when a target is created, and is used by the generators to set
+the options for the compiler.
+
+Contents of ``LINK_OPTIONS`` may use "generator expressions" with the
+syntax ``$<...>``. See the :manual:`cmake-generator-expressions(7)` manual
+for available expressions. See the :manual:`cmake-buildsystem(7)` manual
+for more on defining buildsystem properties.
+
+.. note::
+
+ This property must be used in preference to :prop_tgt:`LINK_FLAGS` property.
