I'm trying to use CPACK to generate a binary installer, I can get a source 
installer to sort of work, but I don't need the source at all.  We do out of 
source builds, but I have CMAKE place my libs and bins back into the source 
tree under a parent/project/lib and parent/project/bin directory for each 
project

Make install installs everything to 
parent/application/bin parent/application/lib parent/application/data 

I have a large directory structure with multiple libraries and a single 
executable setup like this
parent/project/

My Parent CMakeLists.txt file looks like this:

project(parent)

set(COMMON_INSTALL_DIR ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/../MyProgram)
set(COMMON_LIB_INSTALLS ${COMMON_INSTALL_DIR}/lib)

set(COMMON_BIN_INSTALLS ${COMMON_INSTALL_DIR}/bin)


INCLUDE(CPack)

add_subdirectory(project1)
add_subdirectory(project2)

add_subdirectory(projectApp)


If I just leave it at the parent tree, then make package creates empty .tgz 
trees.

Under Project1 it looks like this
Project1/CMakeLists.txt

project(project1)
SET(LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/lib)
SET(EXECUTABLE_OUTPUT_PATH ${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/lib)

add_subdirectory(src)

Project1/src/CMakeLists.txt
usual stuff to get a build and

add_library(project1 SHARED ${PROJECT1_SOURCES})
install(TARGETS project1 LIBRARY DESTINATION ${COMMON_LIB_INSTALLS})


If I populate the INCLUDE(CPack) across the three cmakes, then it builds a 
source fine, but no binary.

Everything else works perfect for me, make, make install, we even have testing 
setup under a parent/project1/test directory, it's just CPACK that is causing 
me some headaches.

So what I want from this is when I run make install it goes to the directory

parent/MyProgram with /lib /data /bin folders under it

and then I really just want CPack to package that Folder up, I can force this 
using SET(CPACK_INSTALLED_DIRECTORIES "${COMMON_INSTALL_DIR};MyProgram") but I 
was trying to figure out why the other doesn't work.

Thanks for your help,

D
