- IMPORTED_GLOBAL
- ---------------
- Indication of whether an :ref:`IMPORTED target <Imported Targets>` is
- globally visible.
- The boolean value of this property is True for targets created with the
- ``IMPORTED`` ``GLOBAL`` options to :command:`add_executable()` or
- :command:`add_library()`. It is always False for targets built within the
- project.
- For targets created with the ``IMPORTED`` option to
- :command:`add_executable()` or :command:`add_library()` but without the
- additional option ``GLOBAL`` this is False, too. However, setting this
- property for such a locally ``IMPORTED`` target to True promotes that
- target to global scope. This promotion can only be done in the same
- directory where that ``IMPORTED`` target was created in the first place.
- Once an imported target has been made global, it cannot be changed back to
- non-global. Therefore, if a project sets this property, it may only
- provide a value of True. CMake will issue an error if the project tries to
- set the property to a non-True value, even if the value was already False.
