My project has hundreds of individual install components.  The various
components are needed for my CPack scripts; however most (all but 1)
components should not be installed as part of a normal "make install".
Unfortunately, "make install" installs all of the components.

Ideally, I would like a way to specify a different set of components for CPack
and CMake.  Any of the following would suit my particular needs:

1) set a variable to specify a single component to be used during "make
install"
2) set a variable to a list of components to be used during "make install"
3) Ability to flag an "INSTALL" macro for use in CPack, CMake, or both

Is there a way to achieve any of the above solutions?

I don't know of a way to control what gets installed by "make install", but you can use custom targets to provide your own alternative behaviors - for example, I used the following to install debug and release versions of a single component (out of many) on a Win32 project where I was doing a lot of debugging:

ADD_CUSTOM_TARGET(Install-Foo-Debug
  ${CMAKE_COMMAND}
  -D "BUILD_TYPE=Debug"
  -D "CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT=Foo"
  -D "CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=C:/Program Files/Foo-Debug"
  -P "${Foo_BINARY_DIR}/cmake_install.cmake"
  )

ADD_CUSTOM_TARGET(Install-Foo-Release
  ${CMAKE_COMMAND}
  -D "BUILD_TYPE=Release"
  -D "CMAKE_INSTALL_COMPONENT=Foo"
  -D "CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=C:/Program Files/Foo"
  -P "${Foo_BINARY_DIR}/cmake_install.cmake"
  )

Cheers,
Tim
