Please have a lokok at the new macro configure_package_config_file() which is in cmake 2.8.8. This helps a lot with writing config files which are relocatable. The Config.cmake.in file has to contains a few special variables/macros: @PACKAGE_INIT@ set(FOO_INCLUDE_DIR "@PACKAGE_INSTALL_INCLUDE_DIR@" ) set(FOO_BIN_DIR "@PACKAGE_INSTALL_BIN_DIR@" ) i.e. for every FOO_XYZ variable use a @PACKAGE_FOO_XYZ@ variable, and the configure_package_config_file() will replace this with the help of the @PACKAGE_INIT@ macro with a relocatable version. http://www.cmake.org/cmake/help/v2.8.8/cmake.html#module:CMakePackageConfigHelpers > configure_file(cmake/FooConfigVersion.cmake.in > ${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}/FooConfigVersion.cmake @ONLY) > > # configure the headers into the build tree so the package can be used > # without installing it and not hard-coding the source/build directory > # information into FooConfig.cmake > configure_file(include/foo.h > ${PROJECT_BINARY_DIR}/include/foo.h COPYONLY) The input file should have a suffix which indicates it is a file which is intended to be configured, usually foo.h.in.
