I would like to thank you all for the valuable information.
put the file in a dir called CMake in your source tree, then do this:
(your_project is the name you gave your project in the project command)
set(CMAKE_MODULE_PATH ${your_project_SOURCE_DIR}/CMake)
Thanks,
Lloyd

[CMake] custom NSIS installer
I have read this - http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake:CPackNSISAdvancedTips - wiki article about executing custom nsis script. It states that... To start work on a custom NSIS script, simply create a file (or copy) into your module path (e.g. CPACK_MODULE_PATH) called NSIS.template.in. Checking the cmake documentation, there is no predefined variable named CPACK_MODULE_PATH. I could find a NSIS.template.in. in the cmake's (main cmake install directory) modules directory. I believe cmake would not ask me to modify this file, as each project's nsis template requirement would be different. could you please let me know the correct location where I should create the template file?

Use List append to append your local module path to the
CMAKE_MODULE_PATH then put your custom NSIS.template.in in that folder
LIST(APPEND CMAKE_MODULE_PATH ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/CMake/Modules)
So in my project root I have the following folder:
CMake\Modules
and it contains my customized
NSIS.template.in

Yes there is a variable with this name defined in CPack.cmake and used
by CPack executable...but
it is not documented :-(
(this may be worth a bug report/feature request)
basically if CPACK_MODULE_PATH is not defined by the user
then cpack does;
set(CPACK_MODULE_PATH ${CMAKE_MODULE_PATH})
then CPack uses
CPACK_MODULE_PATH.
I could find a NSIS.template.in. in the cmake's (main cmake install
directory) modules directory. I believe cmake would not ask me to modify
this file, as each project's nsis template requirement would be different.
If the template fits your needs you do not need to do anything beside
defining the appropriate value for CPACK_NSIS_xxx variable in your
CMakeLists.txt.
If you need more then following what's writtent there
http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake:CPackNSISAdvancedTips
seems OK to me.
could you please let me know the correct location where I should create the
template file?
In your project source tree then modify
CPACK_MODULE_PATH or CMAKE_MODULE_PATH in order
to make CPack find yours before the one provided by CMake.
