All,
I have a SuperProject set up with ExternalProject_add the way some
other projects do.
The SuperProject has two EP's -- Libraries and Main. Libraries has a
bunch of its own EP's. Main is my core project.
When some users use this setup, they're confused at the end --
everything has worked, but the project hasn't been installed, and the
results of compilation are buried several directories deep.
My Main project has a 'package' target set up by CPack. I'd like the
SuperProject to conclude by executing that build target, and then
copying the resulting file to the top-level build directory from the
SuperProject. To complicate things, the target file name is not
fixed, it uses the version number -- which is not known to the
SuperProject level.
Right now, the Main ExternalProject_add INSTALL_COMMAND is "". How
can I change this (or add another step) to build the package target (I
don't want to just hard-code make package, as it should work with MSVC
too). I've tried things like '${CMAKE_COMMAND} cmake--build package'
but haven't had any luck.
Once I get package running, how can I get the system to copy the
resulting *.zip file out to the top level directory? I'd like it to
end up in the CMake build directory at the top of the SuperProject,
but I haven't figured out how to make that happen yet.
Thanks,
Rob
