# MACOSX_PACKAGE_LOCATION

Place a source file inside a Application Bundle ( `MACOSX_BUNDLE`), Core Foundation Bundle ( `BUNDLE`), or Framework Bundle ( `FRAMEWORK`). It is applicable for macOS and iOS.

Executable targets with the `MACOSX_BUNDLE` property set are built as macOS or iOS application bundles on Apple platforms. Shared library targets with the `FRAMEWORK` property set are built as macOS or iOS frameworks on Apple platforms. Module library targets with the `BUNDLE` property set are built as macOS `CFBundle` bundles on Apple platforms. Source files listed in the target with this property set will be copied to a directory inside the bundle or framework content folder specified by the property value. For macOS Application Bundles the content folder is `<name>.app/Contents`. For macOS Frameworks the content folder is `<name>.framework/Versions/<version>`. For macOS CFBundles the content folder is `<name>.bundle/Contents` (unless the extension is changed). See the `PUBLIC_HEADER`, `PRIVATE_HEADER`, and `RESOURCE` target properties for specifying files meant for `Headers`, `PrivateHeaders`, or `Resources` directories.

If the specified location is equal to `Resources`, the resulting location will be the same as if the `RESOURCE` property had been used. If the specified location is a sub-folder of `Resources`, it will be placed into the respective sub-folder. Note: For iOS Apple uses a flat bundle layout where no `Resources` folder exist. Therefore CMake strips the `Resources` folder name from the specified location.
