Re: [CMake] cpack -G NSIS
So yes this was with your try-out example, actually I can try to dig a little bit myself, the problem is that with gdb I need to have the debug symbols, thus recompiling in debug mode. But nowhere in the Readme or around the code I found a way to do it (it would be very nice to add maybe somewhere)..

Re: [CMake] cpack -G NSIS
Thanks for the feedback,
however I tried again with another cmake file, which should actually do
something.
What I would like to do is to:
- get the project name and a list of packages (just directories) to install
- install them somewhere (now the destination is not set correctly).
Should this work in general?
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.6)
#TODO: should take from the python environment
# setting variables from some known build generated files
# probably we can also pass options directly to CMake
file(STRINGS project_name.txt project_name)
file(STRINGS package_list.txt packages)
project(${project_name})
# include can be used to add more configurations??
# # install all the given automatically
install(
DIRECTORY ${packages}
DESTINATION test_ddest
)
#TODO: how do I get the correct destination for windows?
# now the packages variable should contain something
# this include all the necessary
include(CPack)
But I still get the same error using NSIS (works with TGZ):

Yes that the case CMake wouldn't cross-compile by itself in your use case you did build a NSIS windows installer that contains Linux binaries. This wouldn't be of any practical use but that's not the issue. Ok then.
