AUTOUIC

Should the target be processed with autouic (for Qt projects).

AUTOUIC is a boolean specifying whether CMake will handle the Qt uic code generator automatically, i.e. without having to use the QT4_WRAP_UI() or QT5_WRAP_UI() macro. Currently Qt4 and Qt5 are supported.

When this property is ON, CMake will scan the source files at build time and invoke uic accordingly. If an #include statement like #include "ui_foo.h" is found in foo.cpp, a foo.ui file is expected next to foo.cpp, and uic is run on the foo.ui file. This property is initialized by the value of the CMAKE_AUTOUIC variable if it is set when a target is created.

Additional command line options for uic can be set via the AUTOUIC_OPTIONS source file property on the foo.ui file. The global property AUTOGEN_TARGETS_FOLDER can be used to group the autouic targets together in an IDE, e.g. in MSVS.

See the cmake-qt(7) manual for more information on using CMake with Qt.
