I got the ZIP part to work by putting the 7zip.exe on my "path" in
windows xp.
The last problem is still that CPack is NOT copying my 3rd party
libraries into the installer staging area. If I do a "make install"
in msys I _will_ get all the proper libraries copied into the
installation area.
After checking your initial message
it seems that you install your third party lilb using an absolute
path:
INSTALL(FILES
${${basename}_BIN_DIR}/${${basename}_LIB_DEBUG_NAME}.dll DESTINATION
${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/bin CONFIGURATIONS Debug COMPONENT Runtime)
You DON'T need to use "${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/bin" but
only "bin", like this:
INSTALL(FILES
${${basename}_BIN_DIR}/${${basename}_LIB_DEBUG_NAME}.dll DESTINATION
bin CONFIGURATIONS Debug COMPONENT Runtime)
if so could you try:
1) install the third party lib with relative path
2) use SET(CPACK_SET_DESTDIR "ON") in your CMakeLists.txt
I don't know the behavior of the NSIS installer regarding absolutely
installed file, but there are known issues with other CPack generators
with absolute installed files (unless you SET(CPACK_SET_DESTDIR "ON"))
If you want to know more on the subject look at this thread on the ML:
http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2008-May/021638.html
That was it. Thank you very much. I owe you one for that. I found
some other bugs in my cmake code because of this.
Last question. It looks like CPack is generating both a .exe and
a .zip installer? Is this normal on windows? Do I need both?
(Complete Windows nood when it comes to making installers)
Thanks for the help and looking over my cmake code. I'll put up a
wiki page a bit later for complete newbies like myself unless I just
missed something like that already.
