If your binary to install is a CMake target (like in your example)
you should use:
install(targets foo
RUNTIME DESTINATION ${foo_SOURCE_DIR}/bin)
moreover installing in ${foo_SOURCE_DIR} is a bit strange,
if you want to collect all your compiled executable in
a "bin" directory of the source tree then you may
try to use
CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY
if you do
SET(CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/bin)
after calling make, all your executable will end up in
${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/bin
finally you usually don't want to put compiled executable in the SOURCE tree
but in the BUILD tree. So one usually do:
SET(CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY ${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}/bin)
