Due to the specifics of the Multi-ABI project build process, there is no generic way to forward the CMake cache variables that are specified either in the command line or in another similar way. A typical use case for the variable is propagating CMake cache variables specified in the command line. For example, a project has two variables \c{PROJECT_WIDE_VARIABLE1} and \c{PROJECT_WIDE_VARIABLE2} that affect the project configuration: \badcode cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.18) project(MyProject LANGUAGES CXX) find_package(Qt6 REQUIRED COMPONENTS Core) qt_add_executable(MyApp main.cpp) if(PROJECT_WIDE_VARIABLE1) target_sources(MyApp PRIVATE sourcefile1.cpp) endif() if(PROJECT_WIDE_VARIABLE2) target_sources(MyApp PRIVATE sourcefile2.cpp) endif() \endcode The above contents of \c{CMakeLists.txt} enable you to control how \c{MyApp} is built by setting the corresponding CMake variables from the command line: \badcode qt-cmake -S -B \ -DPROJECT_WIDE_VARIABLE1=ON \ -DPROJECT_WIDE_VARIABLE2=ON \ -DQT_ANDROID_MULTI_ABI_FORWARD_VARS="PROJECT_WIDE_VARIABLE1;PROJECT_WIDE_VARIABLE2" \endcode When configuring the application for desktop, \c{PROJECT_WIDE_VARIABLE1} and \c{PROJECT_WIDE_VARIABLE2} are visible in CMake listings and scripts as global cache variables. This doesn't work for Android Multi-ABI builds because ABI-specific subprojects do not inherit the cache variables from the main-ABI project. This issue can be solved by passing the list of required variables to the \c{QT_ANDROID_MULTI_ABI_FORWARD_VARS} variable, so both \c{PROJECT_WIDE_VARIABLE1} and \c{PROJECT_WIDE_VARIABLE2} values will be propagated to the ABI-specific builds. The variable can be also defined in the project's CMakeLists.txt: \badcode ... qt_add_executable(MyApp main.cpp) ... if(ANDROID) set(QT_ANDROID_MULTI_ABI_FORWARD_VARS "PROJECT_WIDE_VARIABLE1;PROJECT_WIDE_VARIABLE2") endif() ... \endcode Setting the variable in this way allows you to have a predefined set of variables that will always be forwarded to abi-specific projects. \note The forwarding is done in the target finalizer, which is implicitly called when \l{qt6_add_executable}{qt_add_executable()} is used. The finalization occurs automatically when using CMake 3.19 or later. \sa {qt6_finalize_target}{qt_finalize_target()}, {qt6_add_executable}{qt_add_executable()} */ /*! \page cmake-variable-qt-android-build-all-abis.html \ingroup cmake-variables-qtcore \title QT_ANDROID_BUILD_ALL_ABIS \target cmake-variable-QT_ANDROID_BUILD_ALL_ABIS \summary {Enables building multi-ABI packages using the autodetected Qt for Android SDK list.} \cmakevariablesince 6.3 \preliminarycmakevariable \cmakevariableandroidonly The option automatically detects available ABIs of Qt for Android and uses them to build a package.
