In more simple case: print_properties TARGET:

Add includion of cmake_properties:
I could include but see error:


CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:19 (print_properties):
  Unknown CMake command "print_properties".


-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!


ADD: include:

   get_cmake_property( _variableNames VARIABLES )
   foreach( _variableName ${_variableNames} )
      message( STATUS "${_variableName}=${${_variableName}}" )
   endforeach()

   include( PrintProperties )
   print_properties( TARGET "." )

I check the specification: written as "cmake_print_properties".

https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v2.8.12/cmake.html#command:get_cmake_property
CMAKE_PRINT_PROPERTIES([TARGETS target1 .. targetN]

                        [SOURCES source1 .. sourceN]
                        [DIRECTORIES dir1 .. dirN]
                        [TESTS test1 .. testN]
                        [CACHE_ENTRIES entry1 .. entryN]
                        PROPERTIES prop1 .. propN )
This macro prints the values of the properties of the given targets, source files, directories, tests or cache entries. Exactly one of the scope keywords must be used. Example:

   cmake_print_properties(TARGETS foo bar PROPERTIES LOCATION INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRS)

This will print the LOCATION and INTERFACE_INCLUDE_DIRS properties for both targets foo and bar.

we don't know the reason the below, we can not find command.

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:13 (cmake_print_properties):

Anyway , we ignore "print_properties".
