There is presently no explicit RUNPATH support in CMake. And no immediate plans to add any support. In fact, your question is the first time I've even noticed that RPATH and RUNPATH are two distinct things...
Searching yielded these explanatory blog posts: http://fwarmerdam.blogspot.com/2010/12/rpath-runpath-and-ldlibrarypath.html http://www.physics.drexel.edu/~wking/unfolding-disasters/posts/rpath/ If you would like to encode a RUNPATH into a library or executable that you are building with CMake, you can try adjusting the compiler and linker flags as needed. I take it you want to use RUNPATH so that there is still a path hint encoded into the built products, but that you are then able to override with LD_LIBRARY_PATH in a testing environment...?
