VS_SETTINGS ----------- .. versionadded:: 3.18 Set any item metadata on a file. .. versionadded:: 3.22 This property is honored for all source file types. Previously it worked only for non-built files. Takes a list of ``Key=Value`` pairs. Tells the Visual Studio generator to set ``Key`` to ``Value`` as item metadata on the file. For example: .. code-block:: cmake set_property(SOURCE file.hlsl PROPERTY VS_SETTINGS "Key=Value" "Key2=Value2") will set ``Key`` to ``Value`` and ``Key2`` to ``Value2`` on the ``file.hlsl`` item as metadata. :manual:`Generator expressions ` are supported.
