1CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE
2-----------------------------
3
4.. versionadded:: 3.6
5
6Type of target generated for :command:`try_compile` calls using the
7source file signature.  Valid values are:
8
9``EXECUTABLE``
10  Use :command:`add_executable` to name the source file in the
11  generated project.  This is the default if no value is given.
12
13``STATIC_LIBRARY``
14  Use :command:`add_library` with the ``STATIC`` option to name the
15  source file in the generated project.  This avoids running the
16  linker and is intended for use with cross-compiling toolchains
17  that cannot link without custom flags or linker scripts.
