+
+
+Qt version detection
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+
+:prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC` enabled targets need to know the Qt major and minor
+version they're working with. The major version usually is provided by the
+``INTERFACE_QT_MAJOR_VERSION`` property of the ``Qt[45]Core`` library,
+that the target links to. To find the minor version, CMake builds a list of
+available Qt versions from
+
+- ``Qt5Core_VERSION_MAJOR`` and ``Qt5Core_VERSION_MINOR`` variables
+ (usually set by ``find_package(Qt5...)``)
+- ``Qt5Core_VERSION_MAJOR`` and ``Qt5Core_VERSION_MINOR`` directory properties
+- ``QT_VERSION_MAJOR`` and ``QT_VERSION_MINOR`` variables
+ (usually set by ``find_package(Qt4...)``)
+- ``QT_VERSION_MAJOR`` and ``QT_VERSION_MINOR`` directory properties
+
+in the context of the :command:`add_executable` or :command:`add_library` call.
+
+Assumed ``INTERFACE_QT_MAJOR_VERSION`` is a valid number, the first
+entry in the list with a matching major version is taken. If no matching major
+version was found, an error is generated.
+If ``INTERFACE_QT_MAJOR_VERSION`` is not a valid number, the first
+entry in the list is taken.
+
+A ``find_package(Qt[45]...)`` call sets the ``QT/Qt5Core_VERSION_MAJOR/MINOR``
+variables. If the call is in a different context than the
+:command:`add_executable` or :command:`add_library` call, e.g. in a function,
+then the version variables might not be available to the :prop_tgt:`AUTOMOC`
+enabled target.
+In that case the version variables can be forwarded from the
+`find_package(Qt[45]...)` calling context to the :command:`add_executable`
+or :command:`add_library` calling context as directory properties.
+The following Qt5 example demonstrates the procedure.
+
+.. code-block:: cmake
+
+ function (add_qt5_client)
+ find_package(Qt5 REQUIRED QUIET COMPONENTS Core Widgets)
+ ...
+ set_property(DIRECTORY "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}"
+ PROPERTY Qt5Core_VERSION_MAJOR "${Qt5Core_VERSION_MAJOR}")
+ set_property(DIRECTORY "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}"

+ ...
