CMake RequireAdministrator

I'm trying to set the RequireAdministrator manifest flag on an executable I'm building with CMake and Visual Studio.

Any ideas on how to direct CMake to set that option?

Thanks!

  • try this:

    SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES(your_executable PROPERTIES LINK_FLAGS    "/MANIFESTUAC:\"level='requireAdministrator' uiAccess='false'\" /SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS")
