<LANG>_CPPLINT
--------------

.. versionadded:: 3.8

This property is supported only when ``<LANG>`` is ``C`` or ``CXX``.

Specify a :ref:`semicolon-separated list <CMake Language Lists>` containing a command line
for the ``cpplint`` style checker.  The :ref:`Makefile Generators` and the
:generator:`Ninja` generator will run ``cpplint`` along with the compiler
and report any problems.

This property is initialized by the value of the
:variable:`CMAKE_<LANG>_CPPLINT` variable if it is set when a target is
created.

.. versionadded:: 3.27

  This property supports
  :manual:`generator expressions <cmake-generator-expressions(7)>`.

  :prop_sf:`SKIP_LINTING` can be set on individual source files to exclude
  them from the linting process, which includes tools like
  :prop_tgt:`<LANG>_CPPLINT`, :prop_tgt:`<LANG>_CLANG_TIDY`,
  :prop_tgt:`<LANG>_CPPCHECK`, and :prop_tgt:`<LANG>_INCLUDE_WHAT_YOU_USE`.
  When :prop_sf:`SKIP_LINTING` is set on a source file, the mentioned tools
  will not be run on that specific file.
