QT_HARMONYOS_USE_TARGET_BUILD_DIR
Enables the use of per-target HarmonyOS build directories.
This variable was introduced in Qt 6.12.1.
Note: This variable is in technology preview and may change in future releases.
Note: This variable is used only if targeting the HarmonyOS platform.
Qt generates the HAP project of an executable target in a directory next to the target. By default, this directory is called harmonyos-build-<target>, so that several executable targets in the same CMakeLists.txt do not overwrite each other's HAP project.
Set this variable to OFF to use a directory called harmonyos-build instead. Only one executable target per CMakeLists.txt is supported then.
The build directory is also written as harmonyos-build-directory into the target's deployment settings file, where tools like Qt Creator read it.
