Yes there is. It is to makes it clear that your requested a ALL-IN-ONE package mainly because *-ALL packages may not have the same content as MONOLITHIC which do not get the extra "-ALL". If you use 2.8.4-rcX you will be able to use CPACK_MONOLITHIC_INSTALL http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake:Component_Install_With_CPack#Controlling_Differents_Ways_of_packaging_components in order to get ALL-IN-ONE package without the extra -ALL. CPACK_MONOLITHIC_INSTALL is now handled at CPack time too so that you can get monolothic install on a "per-generator" basis if you use a CPACK_PROJECT_CONFIG_FILE see: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake:CPackPackageGenerators#Overall_usage_.28common_to_all_generators.29 Now we can makes it easier fo control the name mangling scheme of the multi-files component generators (Archive, RPM and the next to come) if you have some proposal in mind please go ahead. Currently the naming scheme is: ${CPACK_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME}-ALL.<ext> for "ALL-IN-ONE" package ${CPACK_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME}-<ComponentName>.<ext> for the 1 file per component case ${CPACK_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME}-<ComponentName>.<ext> for the 1 file per component group case We can add some extra vars to control the name mangling scheme for ALL cases. Note that CMake 2.8.3 had a backward compatibility breakage http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=11452 which makes archive generator generate componentized package the default. 2.8.4 won't and became backward compatible again with 2.8.2. With 2.8.4 and up you'll have to set(CPACK_ARCHIVE_COMPONENT_INSTALL ON) to get componentized archive. (this may be specified on CPack command line or in CPACK_PROJECT_CONFIG_FILE too i.e. it is handled at CPack time) -- Erk Membre de l'April - « promouvoir et défendre le logiciel libre » - http://www.april.org _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the CMake FAQ at: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
