# INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES

Added in version 3.13.

List of public link directories requirements for a library.

Targets may populate this property to publish the link directories required to compile against the headers for the target. The `target_link_directories()` command populates this property with values given to the `PUBLIC` and `INTERFACE` keywords. Projects may also get and set the property directly.

When target dependencies are specified using `target_link_libraries()`, CMake will read this property from all target dependencies to determine the build properties of the consumer.

Contents of `INTERFACE_LINK_DIRECTORIES` may use "generator expressions" with the syntax `$<...>`. See the `cmake-generator-expressions(7)` manual for available expressions. See the `cmake-buildsystem(7)` -manual for more on defining buildsystem properties.
