I think you should use your source code control system for this. It already knows which files are source.

Did you try out-of-source build? http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake_FAQ#Out-of-source_build_trees If you are already doing out-of-source build and want to exclude some other files then CPACK_SOURCE_IGNORE_FILES should be the way to go. > - With CPACK_SOURCE_IGNORE_FILES variable I can exclude some files, but > without > the regexp positive lookahead feature I cannot say "exclude everything, except > for the *.cpp and *.h" Yes, unfortunately there is no "CPACK_SOURCE_INCLUDE_FILES". > - Other solution would be an external command (eg. find and cp) to copy all > the > files into an other temporary directory and set that directory as the source > directory.

You'll have to implement CPack time copy, you may do that inside a CPACK_PROJECT_CONFIG_FILE. see: http://www.cmake.org/Wiki/CMake:CPackPackageGenerators#Overall_usage_.28common_to_all_generators.29 However I don't think it's the best solution in your case. > - As a last resort I can execute a bz2 command which would do all the > necessary things, but that would run every time (see the problem above). > > The command I issue to generate the source: > cpack --config CPackSourceConfig.cmake > > Is there a simple solution to achieve this? Like I said, out-of-source, should be the easy way to achieve what you want. Another way to have a "clean" copy would be to use your VCS e.g. svn export + tar/zip/ in a custom_command cvs export + tar/zip/ in a custom_command git archive ... see: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/160608/how-to-do-a-git-export-like-svn-export -- Erk Le gouvernement représentatif n'est pas la démocratie -- http://www.le-message.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
[CMake] CPack source packaging
Dear list members, I made a project with CMake (2.8.10) on Linux and want to use CPack to create its source .tar.bz2 file. The task is really simple: copy all of the *.cpp and *.h files into the .tar.bz2 file preserving the directory structure. Although sounds really simple, I've yet to find a solution. The problems are: - In the source directory goes the development also, producing a lot of other files which are unneeded. - With CPACK_SOURCE_IGNORE_FILES variable I can exclude some files, but without the regexp positive lookahead feature I cannot say "exclude everything, except for the *.cpp and *.h" - Other solution would be an external command (eg. find and cp) to copy all the files into an other temporary directory and set that directory as the source directory. The drawback: there's no way to tell in CMakeLists.txt which is the current CPack generator, so I simply can't write "if (CPACK_GENERATOR STREQUAL "TBZ2")", because CPACK_GENERATOR is empty at "cmake ." time. So the find and copy command either ran all the time or not even once. - As a last resort I can execute a bz2 command which would do all the necessary things, but that would run every time (see the problem above). The command I issue to generate the source: cpack --config CPackSourceConfig.cmake Is there a simple solution to achieve this?
