I am trying to make the build of a source package work, i.e. a compressed
version of the complete source code as it comes out of SVN. With these lines in
CMakeLists.txt:
# Create a source package
set(CPACK_SOURCE_GENERATOR "TGZ")
set(CPACK_SOURCE_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME
"${CPACK_PACKAGE_NAME}-${ORX_MAJOR}.${ORX_MINOR}.${ORX_MOD_LVL}-${CPACK_PACKAGE_RELEASE}")
The package looks like this
oorexx-5.1.0-12706
|-- usr
| |-- local
| |-- CHANGES
| |-- CMake-build-readme.txt
| |-- CMakeLists.txt
...
i.e. the default path is included in the compressed source, and we do not want
that.
I tried to change the install path for the source package like this:
# Create a source package
set (CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX .)
set(CPACK_SOURCE_GENERATOR "TGZ")
set(CPACK_SOURCE_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME
"${CPACK_PACKAGE_NAME}-${ORX_MAJOR}.${ORX_MINOR}.${ORX_MOD_LVL}-${CPACK_PACKAGE_RELEASE}")
Now the package looks like this:
oorexx-5.1.0-12706
|-- CHANGES
|-- CMake-build-readme.txt
|-- CMakeLists.txt
...
i.e. the additional subdirectories are gone, and the package is as we want it
to be. That is the good news.
The bad news is that (as I just learned) it had the side effect that "make
install" fail on macOS and hence the building of an installer consequently fail
Does anybody have a solution how to be able to install (make install) to
~Applications/ooRexx5 on macOS and still being able to create a source package
without any additional path?
I have tried to build the package also on Linux but also that did not work.
Since Rony have managed to build a relocatable package, could such an approach
be made? I do not possess the knowledge of how CMake works so I am relying on
help here.
If nothing else helps I see so other possibility than creating the package in a
post-process driven from CMake (similar to how the Windows and macOS installers
are created). But it MUST be possible to do this the "right” way using normal
CMake commands?
