Hello,
I just tried the cpack program. It failed when executing
a post_install_script which is configured to access the installed libraries
and to rename them. Unfortunately this seems to be required if one wants to
install a static and a shared library of the same name.
Here the rename script template I use
FILE(GLOB INSTALLED_LIBNAME [EMAIL PROTECTED]@@INSTALL_LIB_DIR
@/[EMAIL PROTECTED]@*)
MESSAGE("INSTALLED_LIBNAME [EMAIL PROTECTED]@@INSTALL_LIB_DIR
@/[EMAIL PROTECTED]@*")
MESSAGE("INSTALLED_LIBNAME ${INSTALLED_LIBNAME}")
STRING(REPLACE "@BEFORE_RENAME@" "@AFTER_RENAME@" INSTALLED_NAME_AFTER_RENAME $
{INSTALLED_LIBNAME})
EXEC_PROGRAM(@CMAKE_COMMAND@ ARGS -E copy "${INSTALLED_LIBNAME}" "${INSTALLED_N
AME_AFTER_RENAME}")
EXEC_PROGRAM(@CMAKE_COMMAND@ ARGS -E remove "${INSTALLED_LIBNAME}")
which gets configured when running cmake. BEFORE_RENAME is the internal
name of the static library and after rename is the name desired after
installation.
The problem is that CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX used with cpack is different from the
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX for real compilation, however, the configured Rename script
always uses the value that is appropriate for a real installation,
which is a value that I set with FORCE
in CMakeFiles.txt. I wonder whether there is any possibility to solve this
issue?
Now, in fact I don't want a binary distribution I only want a source
distribution such that
this issue would vanish automatically. However, I don't find a flag to tell
cpack to
only produce a source distribution. Is this possible?
I assume with a source distribution the user will be required to first
install cmake, wouldn't he?
Kind regards,
