Hi all,
I am a totally CMake newbie :-) However, I have spend some time (~3
days) in porting one application of mine from autoconf/make to cmake.
The port was somewhat easy, and for the time being I have tested the
build system under windows only with VC++ 9.0. As a result of this
process I have collected a set of questions that I couldn't managed to
find answers :-)
1) Is it possible to know about 32/64 bit build?
If I use the "Visual Studio 9 2008" generator, I get a win32 build.
Similarly, If I use the "Visual Studio 9 2008 Win64" generator, I get an
64-bit build. Is there a cmake variable that can tell me if it is a
32/64 build, in order to install generated
libraries differently? It would be great if I can find a solution that
will work under at least windows & linux.
2) Is it possible to install only a dll, and skip the .lib file?
Usually, when a dll gets installed, the associated lib is also
installed. I usually write this command for installing shared libraries:
INSTALL ( TARGETS ${TkHtml_NAME}
RUNTIME DESTINATION CDM/${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME}
LIBRARY DESTINATION CDM/${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME}
ARCHIVE DESTINATION CDM/${CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME} )
Can somehow "skip" this "ARCHIVE" installation?
3) In CPack (NSIS generator), is it possible to define an additional MUI
language?
Is there a variable for adding additional languages?
Or is it possible to add "!insertmacro MUI_LANGUAGE "some_language""
somehow?
4) In CPack, is it possible to install something other than exe?
The command I tried is:
SET ( CPACK_PACKAGE_EXECUTABLES ellogon.tcl;Ellogon )
This creates the shortcut to run my application (which is a Tcl/Tk one),
but in the project.nsi I get the following:
CreateShortCut "$SMPROGRAMS\$STARTMENU_FOLDER\Ellogon.lnk"
"$INSTDIR\bin\ellogon.tcl.exe"
CPack has added a "bin" directory before it, and an .exe extension. In
my original NSIS script, I had something like:
CreateShortCut "$SMPROGRAMS\Ellogon\Ellogon ${PRODUCT_VERSION}.lnk" \
'"$INSTDIR\ellogon.tcl"' "" \
"$INSTDIR\CDM\Windows\libCDM.dll" "6"
Can something similar be achieved with CPack?
Regards,
George
