# ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG>

Per-configuration output directory for ARCHIVE target files.

This is a per-configuration version of the `ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY` target property, but multi-configuration generators (Visual Studio, `Xcode`, `Ninja Multi-Config`) do NOT append a per-configuration subdirectory to the specified directory. This property is initialized by the value of the `CMAKE_ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG>` variable if it is set when a target is created.

Contents of `ARCHIVE_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY_<CONFIG>` may use `generator expressions`.
