Hi all, I've already replied to an older thread mentioning the same issue, but still saw no reply.
I have a problem with CPack when using in combination with a custom top level target. In my setup I have custom command which uses CPack to create a zip file. For me this zip file is a top level artefact (tight to a top level target). This top level target used to be a library, but for several reason I now want to use a custom target. However, if I simply change my CMake file from add_library(name ..) to add_custom_target(name ALL) the build fails. The output I get is: CPack: Create package using ZIP CPack: Install projects CPack: - Run preinstall target for: org.apache.incubator.celix.helloworld CPack Error: Problem running install command: /usr/bin/make "preinstall" Please check /Path/to/build/Celix/celix-build/examples/hello_world/_CPack_Packages/ZIP/PreinstallOutput.log for errors CPack Error: Error when generating package: org.apache.incubator.celix.helloworld make[2]: *** [org.apache.incubator.celix.helloworld] Error 1 make[1]: *** [examples/hello_world/CMakeFiles/org.apache.incubator.celix.helloworld.dir/all] Error 2 make: *** [all] Error 2 Strangely, if I make the custom target not a top level target, but instead create another (root only) custom top level target, and add the cpack target to it using a dependency, it works. While this works, this has the problem that the top level target is only visible in the root of my project, not in the respective sub directory (which I still would like to have). Is there something I am doing wrong? If not, why is there a difference between add_library in combination with a custom command running CPack and add_cuctom_library and the cpack command? -- Met vriendelijke groet, Alexander Broekhuis
