The ``RPATH`` +entries for directories contained within the build tree can be made +relative to enable relocatable builds and to help achieve reproducible +builds by omitting the build directory from the build environment. + +This property has no effect on platforms that do not support the +``$ORIGIN`` token in ``RPATH``, or when the :variable:`CMAKE_SKIP_RPATH` +variable is set. The runtime path set through the +:prop_tgt:`BUILD_RPATH` target property is also unaffected by this +property. |
