Re: [CMake] Installing a helper application

2011-01-06 Thread Ryan Pavlik 
You'll need something closer to this:


add_executable(myapp MACOSX_BUNDLE [...])

find_file(helperpath [...])
if(NOT helperpath)
message(FATAL_ERROR Need helper app!)
endif()

install(TARGETS myapp
   BUNDLE DESTINATION .
   RUNTIME DESTINATION bin
)

if(APPLE)
install(PROGRAMS ${helperpath}
   DESTINATION ./myapp.app/Contents/MacOS
)
else()
install(PROGRAMS ${helperpath}
   DESTINATION bin
)
endif()

  My application requires that a helper application, built outside of my
 project, be installed along with it.  On Linux and Win, its sufficient to
 copy the helper app to the same directory as my app.  On Mac, it needs to be
 copied into the bundle in the same location as my runtime, in the
 Contents/Macos/ bundle directory.
 
  I can't get the helper app to be packaged correctly on Mac.  I've tried
 two approaches that have come close but failed.
 
  First I tried adding the helper as a target, then using
 install(TARGETS...):
  
  ADD_EXECUTABLE(myapp MACOSX_BUNDLE [...])
 
  SET(helperpath [...])
  SET(IMPORTED_LOCATION ${helperpath})
  ADD_EXECUTABLE(myhelper IMPORTED)
 
  INSTALL(TARGETS myapp
 BUNDLE DESTINATION .
 RUNTIME DESTINATION bin
  )
 
  INSTALL(TARGETS myhelper
 BUNDLE DESTINATION .
 RUNTIME DESTINATION bin
  )
  
 
  This fails in cmake with a message: install TARGETS given target
 myhelper which does not exist in this directory.
 
  If  I alter the INSTALL with a fully qualified path to myhelper I get the
 same message, with the fully qualified myhelper path.
 
  Next, I tried using INSTALL(PROGRAMS...) with something like:
  
  ADD_EXECUTABLE(myapp MACOSX_BUNDLE [...])
 
  SET(helperpath [...])
 
  INSTALL(TARGETS myapp
 BUNDLE DESTINATION .
 RUNTIME DESTINATION bin
  )
 
  INSTALL(PROGRAMS ${helperpath}/myhelper
 DESTINATION .
  )
  
 
  But this form PROGRAMS does not support the kind-of qualifiers (BUNDLE,
 RUNTIME), so helperapp gets copied next to the bundle on Mac, not into it
 where it needs to be.
 
  What am I doing wrong?

Re: [CMake] Installing a helper application

Can you use Find_File() to get the path to the file. Then use the 
install(FILES ... ) command to place the file in your app bundle. Not tried any 
of that but it might work.
