# FOLDER

For IDEs that present targets using a folder hierarchy, this property specifies the name of the folder to place the target under. To nest folders, use `FOLDER` values such as `GUI/Dialogs` with `/` characters separating folder levels. Targets with no `FOLDER` property will appear as top level entities. Targets with the same `FOLDER` property value will appear in the same folder as siblings.

Only some CMake generators honor the `FOLDER` property (e.g. `Xcode` or any of the Visual Studio generators). Those generators that don't will simply ignore it.

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

The global property `USE_FOLDERS` must be set to true, otherwise the `FOLDER` property is ignored.
