Hi, I have an application and I need to create an installer. I use CPack with 
NSIS. For now, I'm using :
find_package(Boost COMPONENTS thread date_time filesystem REQUIRED)

This give me le .lib associate to the dll file. This is compiling and working 
on computer with Boost already install.

My problems occurs when I need to install the application on computer that 
doesn't have boost already install. What is the right way to do this.

I have the same problems with another third party libs called orocos. Here is 
what I've tried:
        add_library(orocos-rtt-win32 SHARED IMPORTED)

        get_filename_component(OROCOS_RTT_LIBRARY_DIR ${OROCOS_RTT_LIBRARY} 
PATH)

        set_target_properties( orocos-rtt-win32 PROPERTIES
                                                   IMPORTED_LOCATION 
"${OROCOS_RTT_LIBRARY_DIR}"
                                                   IMPORTED_IMPLIB 
${OROCOS_RTT_LIBRARY}
                                                   IMPORT_SUFFIX ".dll"
                                                   IMPORT_PREFIX ""
        )

        install (TARGETS orocos-rtt-win32
               RUNTIME DESTINATION ./
                 LIBRARY DESTINATION ./
                 ARCHIVE DESTINATION ./
        )

And I've got the following message: CMake Error at MainGUI/CMakeLists.txt:50 
(install):
  install TARGETS given target "orocos-rtt-win32" which does not exist in
  this directory.
If I remove the install command of orocos-rtt-win32, the orocos-rtt-win32.lib 
is add correctely to the project. But this isn't a way to do it with Boost 
because of the version tag in the names. So maybe this isn't a right way to do 
it.

How I am supposed to do install and distribute my third party libs (not in 
CMake project)?

Thank for the help!
