LOCATION_<CONFIG>
-----------------
Read-only property providing a target location on disk.
A read-only property that indicates where a target's main file is
located on disk for the configuration <CONFIG>. The property is
defined only for library and executable targets. An imported target
may provide a set of configurations different from that of the
importing project. By default CMake looks for an exact-match but
otherwise uses an arbitrary available configuration. Use the
MAP_IMPORTED_CONFIG_<CONFIG> property to map imported configurations
explicitly.
Do not set properties that affect the location of a target after
reading this property. These include properties whose names match
"(RUNTIME|LIBRARY|ARCHIVE)_OUTPUT_(NAME|DIRECTORY)(_<CONFIG>)?",
``(IMPLIB_)?(PREFIX|SUFFIX)``, or "LINKER_LANGUAGE". Failure to follow
this rule is not diagnosed and leaves the location of the target
undefined.
