INSTALL_NAME_DIR — CMake 3.30.5 Documentation

# INSTALL_NAME_DIR

Directory name for installed targets on Apple platforms.

`INSTALL_NAME_DIR` is a string specifying the directory portion of the "install_name" field of shared libraries on Apple platforms for installed targets. When not set, the default directory used is determined by `MACOSX_RPATH`. If the `BUILD_WITH_INSTALL_NAME_DIR` property is set, this will be used already in the build tree. Policies `CMP0068` and `CMP0042` are also relevant.

This property is initialized by the value of the variable `CMAKE_INSTALL_NAME_DIR` if it is set when a target is created.

This property supports `generator expressions`. In particular, the `$<INSTALL_PREFIX>` generator expression can be used to set the directory relative to the install-time prefix.

On platforms that support runtime paths (`RPATH`), refer to the `INSTALL_RPATH` target property. Under Windows, the `TARGET_RUNTIME_DLLS` generator expression is related.
