This line is doing an installation (look at the output). >>$ make Then you build the software, strange enough to build AFTER installing. >>$ make package # CPack is configured ... Then you re-install through CPack and run cpack for building the package. The first command line "cmake -DCOMPONENT=dist ..." and the last one "make package" are unrelated. You should read that: http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/CMake:Component_Install_With_CPack > still adds also the targets NOT having COMPONENT filled (the libraries > joined by svn:externals and statically linked) into the package built. > And I cannot change CMakeLists.txt except the one in my target ... OK but as far as I know it is not enough to use COMPONENT and get it work with CPack. You should: 1) tell CPACK you want component installer using set(CPACK_COMPONENTS_ALL ....) 2) use a CPack generator that do support COMPONENT installer not ALL but a few CPack generator do support COMPONENT. For example DEB and RPM don't: http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=7645 NSIS does. TGZ, ZIP ==> I don't know. What CPack generator are you using? ZIP, TGZ, NSIS, RPM, DEB ?? > Do you think that my original requirement is meaningful enough for feature > request to be filled? Yes I think it is but may be you are "only" lacking the COMPONENT install for you target CPack generator. > > Thank you very much, > DanT. -- 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
