# FindIconv

New in version 3.11.

This module finds the `iconv()` POSIX.1 functions on the system. These functions might be provided in the regular C library or externally in the form of an additional library.

The following variables are provided to indicate iconv support:

`Iconv_FOUND`

  Variable indicating if the iconv support was found.

`Iconv_INCLUDE_DIRS`

  The directories containing the iconv headers.

`Iconv_LIBRARIES`

  The iconv libraries to be linked.

`Iconv_IS_BUILT_IN`

  A variable indicating whether iconv support is stemming from the C library or not. Even if the C library provides iconv(), the presence of an external libiconv implementation might lead to this being false.

Additionally, the following `IMPORTED` target is being provided:

`Iconv::Iconv`

  Imported target for using iconv.

The following cache variables may also be set:

`Iconv_INCLUDE_DIR`

  The directory containing the iconv headers.

`Iconv_LIBRARY`

  The iconv library (if not implicitly given in the C library).

Note

On POSIX platforms, iconv might be part of the C library and the cache variables `Iconv_INCLUDE_DIR` and `Iconv_LIBRARY` might be empty.
