# IMPORTED_LOCATION

Full path to the main file on disk for an `IMPORTED` target.

Set this to the location of an `IMPORTED` target file on disk. For executables this is the location of the executable file. For bundles on macOS this is the location of the executable file inside `Contents/MacOS` under the application bundle folder. For `STATIC` libraries and modules this is the location of the library or module. For `SHARED` libraries on non-DLL platforms this is the location of the shared library. For frameworks on macOS this is the location of the library file symlink just inside the framework folder. For DLLs this is the location of the `.dll` part of the library. For `UNKNOWN` libraries this is the location of the file to be linked. Ignored for non-imported targets.

Projects may skip `IMPORTED_LOCATION` if the configuration-specific property `IMPORTED_LOCATION_<CONFIG>` is set. To get the location of an imported target read one of the `LOCATION` or `LOCATION_<CONFIG>` properties.
