get_target_property — CMake 3.5.2 Documentation

# get_target_property

Get a property from a target.

    get_target_property(VAR target property)

Get a property from a target. The value of the property is stored in the variable `VAR`. If the property is not found, `VAR` will be set to “NOTFOUND”. Use `set_target_properties()` to set property values. Properties are usually used to control how a target is built, but some query the target instead. This command can get properties for any target so far created. The targets do not need to be in the current `CMakeLists.txt` file.

See also the more general `get_property()` command.
