Hi Everyone
In my attempt to get cmake/cpack to produce a propper OS X bundle,
I hit a problem. We use a launcher script written in applescript
which is compiled in the build process. Before producing the
bundle with cpack we simply copied the compiled 'applet' file over
to the actual bundle. When I set CPACK_BUNDLE_STARTUP_COMMAND to
point to the applet it is getting copied over but renamed to the
bundle name. Can I prevent that somehow or can I run a script
right after cmake/cpack has finished putting the bundle together
to do some final touches?
Tobias:
My experience when I was writing the bundle generator was that the
startup command only worked if it matched the bundle name. From your
question there must be some way to control what gets executed when a
user double-clicks the bundle. Info.plist?
Cheers,
Tim

from inside the info.plist:
<key>CFBundleExecutable</key>
<string>QImporter_debug</string>
You can set that to what ever you want. I'm pretty sure that the
executable _should_ be in the "MacOS" directory otherwise you can
probably put in a relative path: "../bin/myexecutable"
Cool ... so I think a workable solution for Tobias would be to leave
CPACK_BUNDLE_STARTUP_COMMAND empty, ensure that the Info.plist specified
with CPACK_BUNDLE_PLIST runs the correct applet file, then use
INSTALL(FILES /path/to/applet DESTINATION ../MacOS/applet)
to put the applet where it belongs in the bundle, without renaming it.
Since the bundle generator relies on the user to generate their own
Info.plist anyway, it sounds as if renaming the startup command is
heavy-handed and should be replaced with a straight copy.
Cheers,
Tim
