Relative paths given to this command are interpreted as relative to

Note that this command is rarely necessary. Library locations

This command is rarely necessary and should be avoided where there are
other choices. Prefer to pass full absolute paths to libraries where
possible, since this ensures the correct library will always be linked.
The :command:`find_library` command provides the full path, which can
generally be used directly in calls to :command:`target_link_libraries`.
Situations where a library search path may be needed include:
- Project generators like Xcode where the user can switch target
architecture at build time, but a full path to a library cannot
be used because it only provides one architecture (i.e. it is not
a universal binary).
- Libraries may themselves have other private library dependencies
that expect to be found via ``RPATH`` mechanisms, but some linkers
are not able to fully decode those paths (e.g. due to the presence
of things like ``$ORIGIN``).
If a library search path must be provided, prefer to localize the effect
where possible by using the :command:`target_link_directories` command
rather than ``link_directories()``. The target-specific command can also
control how the search directories propagate to other dependent targets.

.. variable:: CPACK_BUNDLE_APPLE_CERT_APP
The name of your Apple supplied code signing certificate for the application.
The name usually takes the form ``Developer ID Application: [Name]`` or
``3rd Party Mac Developer Application: [Name]``. If this variable is not set
the application will not be signed.
.. variable:: CPACK_BUNDLE_APPLE_ENTITLEMENTS
The name of the ``Plist`` file that contains your apple entitlements for sandboxing
your application. This file is required for submission to the Mac App Store.
.. variable:: CPACK_BUNDLE_APPLE_CODESIGN_FILES
A list of additional files that you wish to be signed. You do not need to
list the main application folder, or the main executable. You should
list any frameworks and plugins that are included in your app bundle.
.. variable:: CPACK_BUNDLE_APPLE_CODESIGN_PARAMETER
Additional parameter that will passed to ``codesign``.
Default value: ``--deep -f``
.. variable:: CPACK_COMMAND_CODESIGN
Path to the ``codesign(1)`` command used to sign applications with an
Apple cert. This variable can be used to override the automatically
detected command (or specify its location if the auto-detection fails
to find it).

CPack Deb Generator
-------------------
The built in (binary) CPack Deb generator (Unix only)
Variables specific to CPack Debian (DEB) generator
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The CPack Deb generator may be used to create Deb package using :module:`CPack`.
The CPack Deb generator is a :module:`CPack` generator thus it uses the
``CPACK_XXX`` variables used by :module:`CPack`.
The CPack Deb generator should work on any Linux host but it will produce
better deb package when Debian specific tools ``dpkg-xxx`` are usable on
the build system.
The CPack Deb generator has specific features which are controlled by the
specifics :code:`CPACK_DEBIAN_XXX` variables.
:code:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_XXXX` variables may be used in order to have
**component** specific values. Note however that ``<COMPONENT>`` refers to
the **grouping name** written in upper case. It may be either a component name
or a component GROUP name.
Here are some CPack Deb generator wiki resources that are here for historic
reasons and are no longer maintained but may still prove useful:
- https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/community/wikis/doc/cpack/Configuration
- https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/community/wikis/doc/cpack/PackageGenerators#deb-unix-only
List of CPack Deb generator specific variables:
.. variable:: CPACK_DEB_COMPONENT_INSTALL
Enable component packaging for CPackDEB
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : OFF
If enabled (ON) multiple packages are generated. By default a single package
containing files of all components is generated.
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_NAME
CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_NAME
Set Package control field (variable is automatically transformed to lower
case).
* Mandatory : YES
* Default :
- :variable:`CPACK_PACKAGE_NAME` for non-component based
installations
- :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_NAME` suffixed with -<COMPONENT>
for component-based installations.
See https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Source
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_FILE_NAME
CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_FILE_NAME
Package file name.
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : ``<CPACK_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME>[-<component>].deb``
This may be set to ``DEB-DEFAULT`` to allow the CPack Deb generator to generate
package file name by itself in deb format::
<PackageName>_<VersionNumber>-<DebianRevisionNumber>_<DebianArchitecture>.deb
Alternatively provided package file name must end
with either ``.deb`` or ``.ipk`` suffix.
.. note::
Preferred setting of this variable is ``DEB-DEFAULT`` but for backward
compatibility with the CPack Deb generator in CMake prior to version 3.6 this
feature is disabled by default.
.. note::
By using non default filenames duplicate names may occur. Duplicate files
get overwritten and it is up to the packager to set the variables in a
manner that will prevent such errors.
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_EPOCH
The Debian package epoch
* Mandatory : No
* Default : -
Optional number that should be incremented when changing versioning schemas
or fixing mistakes in the version numbers of older packages.
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_VERSION
The Debian package version
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : :variable:`CPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION`
This variable may contain only alphanumerics (A-Za-z0-9) and the characters
. + - ~ (full stop, plus, hyphen, tilde) and should start with a digit. If
:variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_RELEASE` is not set then hyphens are not
allowed.
.. note::
For backward compatibility with CMake 3.9 and lower a failed test of this
variable's content is not a hard error when both
:variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_RELEASE` and
:variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_EPOCH` variables are not set. An author
warning is reported instead.
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_RELEASE
The Debian package release - Debian revision number.
* Mandatory : No
* Default : -
This is the numbering of the DEB package itself, i.e. the version of the
packaging and not the version of the content (see
:variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_VERSION`). One may change the default value
if the previous packaging was buggy and/or you want to put here a fancy Linux
distro specific numbering.
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_ARCHITECTURE
CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_ARCHITECTURE
The Debian package architecture
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : Output of :code:`dpkg --print-architecture` (or :code:`i386`
if :code:`dpkg` is not found)
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DEPENDS
CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_DEPENDS
Sets the Debian dependencies of this package.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default :
- An empty string for non-component based installations
- :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DEPENDS` for component-based
installations.
.. note::
If :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SHLIBDEPS` or
more specifically :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_SHLIBDEPS`
is set for this component, the discovered dependencies will be appended
to :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_DEPENDS` instead of
:variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DEPENDS`. If
:variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_DEPENDS` is an empty string,
only the automatically discovered dependencies will be set for this
component.
Example::
set(CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DEPENDS "libc6 (>= 2.3.1-6), libc6 (< 2.4)")
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_ENABLE_COMPONENT_DEPENDS
Sets inter component dependencies if listed with
:variable:`CPACK_COMPONENT_<compName>_DEPENDS` variables.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_MAINTAINER
The Debian package maintainer
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : :code:`CPACK_PACKAGE_CONTACT`
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION
CPACK_COMPONENT_<COMPONENT>_DESCRIPTION
The Debian package description
* Mandatory : YES
* Default :
- :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION` if set or
- :variable:`CPACK_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION_SUMMARY`
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SECTION
CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_SECTION
Set Section control field e.g. admin, devel, doc, ...
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : "devel"
See https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-archive.html#s-subsections

The archive format used for creating the Debian package.
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : "paxr"
Possible values are:
- paxr
- gnutar
.. note::
Default pax archive format is the most portable format and generates
packages that do not treat sparse files specially.
GNU tar format on the other hand supports longer filenames.
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_COMPRESSION_TYPE
The compression used for creating the Debian package.
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : "gzip"
Possible values are:
- lzma
- xz
- bzip2
- gzip

CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_PRIORITY
Set Priority control field e.g. required, important, standard, optional,
extra
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : "optional"
See https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-archive.html#s-priorities
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_HOMEPAGE
The URL of the web site for this package, preferably (when applicable) the
site from which the original source can be obtained and any additional
upstream documentation or information may be found.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : :variable:`CMAKE_PROJECT_HOMEPAGE_URL`
.. note::
The content of this field is a simple URL without any surrounding
characters such as <>.
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SHLIBDEPS
CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_SHLIBDEPS
May be set to ON in order to use :code:`dpkg-shlibdeps` to generate
better package dependency list.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default :
- :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SHLIBDEPS` if set or
- OFF
.. note::
You may need set :variable:`CMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH` to an appropriate value
if you use this feature, because if you don't :code:`dpkg-shlibdeps`
may fail to find your own shared libs.
See https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/community/wikis/doc/cmake/RPATH-handling
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DEBUG
May be set when invoking cpack in order to trace debug information
during the CPack Deb generator run.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_PREDEPENDS
CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_PREDEPENDS
Sets the `Pre-Depends` field of the Debian package.
Like :variable:`Depends <CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DEPENDS>`, except that it
also forces :code:`dpkg` to complete installation of the packages named
before even starting the installation of the package which declares the
pre-dependency.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default :
- An empty string for non-component based installations
- :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_PREDEPENDS` for component-based
installations.
See http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-binarydeps
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_ENHANCES
CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_ENHANCES
Sets the `Enhances` field of the Debian package.
Similar to :variable:`Suggests <CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SUGGESTS>` but works
in the opposite direction: declares that a package can enhance the
functionality of another package.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default :
- An empty string for non-component based installations
- :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_ENHANCES` for component-based
installations.
See http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-binarydeps
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_BREAKS
CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_BREAKS
Sets the `Breaks` field of the Debian package.
When a binary package (P) declares that it breaks other packages (B),
:code:`dpkg` will not allow the package (P) which declares `Breaks` be
**unpacked** unless the packages that will be broken (B) are deconfigured
first.
As long as the package (P) is configured, the previously deconfigured
packages (B) cannot be reconfigured again.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default :
- An empty string for non-component based installations
- :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_BREAKS` for component-based
installations.
See https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-breaks
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONFLICTS
CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_CONFLICTS
Sets the `Conflicts` field of the Debian package.
When one binary package declares a conflict with another using a `Conflicts`
field, :code:`dpkg` will not allow them to be unpacked on the system at
the same time.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default :
- An empty string for non-component based installations
- :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONFLICTS` for component-based
installations.
See https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-conflicts
.. note::
This is a stronger restriction than
:variable:`Breaks <CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_BREAKS>`, which prevents the
broken package from being configured while the breaking package is in
the "Unpacked" state but allows both packages to be unpacked at the same
time.
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_PROVIDES
CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_PROVIDES
Sets the `Provides` field of the Debian package.
A virtual package is one which appears in the `Provides` control field of
another package.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default :
- An empty string for non-component based installations
- :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_PROVIDES` for component-based
installations.
See https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-virtual
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_REPLACES
CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_REPLACES
Sets the `Replaces` field of the Debian package.
Packages can declare in their control file that they should overwrite
files in certain other packages, or completely replace other packages.
* Mandatory : NO

installations.
See http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-binarydeps
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SUGGESTS
CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_SUGGESTS
Sets the `Suggests` field of the Debian package.
Allows packages to declare a suggested package install grouping.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default :
- An empty string for non-component based installations
- :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SUGGESTS` for component-based
installations.
See http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-relationships.html#s-binarydeps
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_GENERATE_SHLIBS
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : OFF
Allows to generate shlibs control file automatically. Compatibility is defined by
:variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_GENERATE_SHLIBS_POLICY` variable value.
.. note::
Libraries are only considered if they have both library name and version
set. This can be done by setting SOVERSION property with
:command:`set_target_properties` command.
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_GENERATE_SHLIBS_POLICY
Compatibility policy for auto-generated shlibs control file.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : "="
Defines compatibility policy for auto-generated shlibs control file.
Possible values: "=", ">="

.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_EXTRA
CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_CONTROL_EXTRA
This variable allow advanced user to add custom script to the
control.tar.gz.
Typical usage is for conffiles, postinst, postrm, prerm.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
Usage::
set(CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_EXTRA
"${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/prerm;${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/postrm")
.. note::
The original permissions of the files will be used in the final
package unless the variable
:variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_STRICT_PERMISSION` is set.
In particular, the scripts should have the proper executable
flag prior to the generation of the package.
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_STRICT_PERMISSION
CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_CONTROL_STRICT_PERMISSION
This variable indicates if the Debian policy on control files should be
strictly followed.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : FALSE
Usage::
set(CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_CONTROL_STRICT_PERMISSION TRUE)
.. note::
This overrides the permissions on the original files, following the rules
set by Debian policy
https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-files.html#s-permissions-owners
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SOURCE
CPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_SOURCE
Sets the ``Source`` field of the binary Debian package.
When the binary package name is not the same as the source package name
(in particular when several components/binaries are generated from one
source) the source from which the binary has been generated should be
indicated with the field ``Source``.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default :
- An empty string for non-component based installations
- :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_SOURCE` for component-based
installations.
See https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Source
.. note::
This value is not interpreted. It is possible to pass an optional
revision number of the referenced source package as well.
Packaging of debug information
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Dbgsym packages contain debug symbols for debugging packaged binaries.
Dbgsym packaging has its own set of variables:
.. variable:: CPACK_DEBIAN_DEBUGINFO_PACKAGE
CPACK_DEBIAN_<component>_DEBUGINFO_PACKAGE
Enable generation of dbgsym .ddeb package(s).
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : OFF
.. note::
Binaries must contain debug symbols before packaging so use either ``Debug``
or ``RelWithDebInfo`` for :variable:`CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE` variable value.
Building Debian packages on Windows
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
To communicate UNIX file permissions from the install stage
to the CPack DEB generator the "cmake_mode_t" NTFS
alternate data stream (ADT) is used.
When a filesystem without ADT support is used only owner read/write
permissions can be preserved.
Reproducible packages
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The environment variable ``SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH`` may be set to a UNIX
timestamp, defined as the number of seconds, excluding leap seconds,
since 01 Jan 1970 00:00:00 UTC. If set, the CPack Deb generator will
use its value for timestamps in the package.

CPack DMG Generator
-------------------
DragNDrop CPack generator (macOS).
Variables specific to CPack DragNDrop generator
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The following variables are specific to the DragNDrop installers built
on macOS:
.. variable:: CPACK_DMG_VOLUME_NAME
The volume name of the generated disk image. Defaults to
CPACK_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME.
.. variable:: CPACK_DMG_FORMAT
The disk image format. Common values are ``UDRO`` (UDIF read-only), ``UDZO`` (UDIF
zlib-compressed) or ``UDBZ`` (UDIF bzip2-compressed). Refer to ``hdiutil(1)`` for
more information on other available formats. Defaults to ``UDZO``.
.. variable:: CPACK_DMG_DS_STORE
Path to a custom ``.DS_Store`` file. This ``.DS_Store`` file can be used to
specify the Finder window position/geometry and layout (such as hidden
toolbars, placement of the icons etc.). This file has to be generated by
the Finder (either manually or through AppleScript) using a normal folder
from which the ``.DS_Store`` file can then be extracted.
.. variable:: CPACK_DMG_DS_STORE_SETUP_SCRIPT
Path to a custom AppleScript file. This AppleScript is used to generate
a ``.DS_Store`` file which specifies the Finder window position/geometry and
layout (such as hidden toolbars, placement of the icons etc.).
By specifying a custom AppleScript there is no need to use
``CPACK_DMG_DS_STORE``, as the ``.DS_Store`` that is generated by the AppleScript
will be packaged.
.. variable:: CPACK_DMG_BACKGROUND_IMAGE
Path to an image file to be used as the background. This file will be
copied to ``.background``/``background.<ext>``, where ``<ext>`` is the original image file
extension. The background image is installed into the image before
``CPACK_DMG_DS_STORE_SETUP_SCRIPT`` is executed or ``CPACK_DMG_DS_STORE`` is
installed. By default no background image is set.
.. variable:: CPACK_DMG_DISABLE_APPLICATIONS_SYMLINK
Default behaviour is to include a symlink to ``/Applications`` in the DMG.
Set this option to ``ON`` to avoid adding the symlink.
.. variable:: CPACK_DMG_SLA_DIR
Directory where license and menu files for different languages are stored.
Setting this causes CPack to look for a ``<language>.menu.txt`` and
``<language>.license.txt`` file for every language defined in
``CPACK_DMG_SLA_LANGUAGES``. If both this variable and
``CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_LICENSE`` are set, CPack will only look for the menu
files and use the same license file for all languages.
.. variable:: CPACK_DMG_SLA_LANGUAGES
Languages for which a license agreement is provided when mounting the
generated DMG. A menu file consists of 9 lines of text. The first line is
is the name of the language itself, uppercase, in English (e.g. German).
The other lines are translations of the following strings:
- Agree
- Disagree
- Print
- Save...
- You agree to the terms of the License Agreement when you click the
"Agree" button.
- Software License Agreement
- This text cannot be saved. The disk may be full or locked, or the file
may be locked.
- Unable to print. Make sure you have selected a printer.
For every language in this list, CPack will try to find files
``<language>.menu.txt`` and ``<language>.license.txt`` in the directory
specified by the :variable:`CPACK_DMG_SLA_DIR` variable.
.. variable:: CPACK_COMMAND_HDIUTIL
Path to the ``hdiutil(1)`` command used to operate on disk image files on
macOS. This variable can be used to override the automatically detected
command (or specify its location if the auto-detection fails to find it).
.. variable:: CPACK_COMMAND_SETFILE
Path to the ``SetFile(1)`` command used to set extended attributes on files and
directories on macOS. This variable can be used to override the
automatically detected command (or specify its location if the
auto-detection fails to find it).
.. variable:: CPACK_COMMAND_REZ
Path to the ``Rez(1)`` command used to compile resources on macOS. This
variable can be used to override the automatically detected command (or
specify its location if the auto-detection fails to find it).

CPack External Generator
------------------------
CPack provides many generators to create packages for a variety of platforms
and packaging systems. The intention is for CMake/CPack to be a complete
end-to-end solution for building and packaging a software project. However, it
may not always be possible to use CPack for the entire packaging process, due
to either technical limitations or policies that require the use of certain
tools. For this reason, CPack provides the "External" generator, which allows
external packaging software to take advantage of some of the functionality
provided by CPack, such as component installation and the dependency graph.
Integration with External Packaging Tools
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The CPack External generator generates a .json file containing the
CPack internal metadata, which gives external software information
on how to package the software. External packaging software may itself
invoke CPack, consume the generated metadata,
install and package files as required.
Alternatively CPack can invoke an external packaging software
through an optional custom CMake script in
:variable:`CPACK_EXT_PACKAGE_SCRIPT` instead.
Staging of installation files may also optionally be
taken care of by the generator when enabled through the
:variable:`CPACK_EXT_ENABLE_STAGING` variable.
JSON Format
^^^^^^^^^^^
The JSON metadata file contains a list of CPack components and component groups,
the various options passed to :command:`cpack_add_component` and
:command:`cpack_add_component_group`, the dependencies between the components
and component groups, and various other options passed to CPack.
The JSON's root object will always provide two fields:
``formatVersionMajor`` and ``formatVersionMinor``, which are always integers
that describe the output format of the generator. Backwards-compatible changes
to the output format (for example, adding a new field that didn't exist before)
cause the minor version to be incremented, and backwards-incompatible changes
(for example, deleting a field or changing its meaning) cause the major version
to be incremented and the minor version reset to 0. The format version is
always of the format ``major.minor``. In other words, it always has exactly two
parts, separated by a period.
You can request one or more specific versions of the output format as described
below with :variable:`CPACK_EXT_REQUESTED_VERSIONS`. The output format will
have a major version that exactly matches the requested major version, and a
minor version that is greater than or equal to the requested minor version. If
no version is requested with :variable:`CPACK_EXT_REQUESTED_VERSIONS`, the
latest known major version is used by default. Currently, the only supported
format is 1.0, which is described below.
Version 1.0
***********
In addition to the standard format fields, format version 1.0 provides the
following fields in the root:
``components``
The ``components`` field is an object with component names as the keys and
objects describing the components as the values. The component objects have
the following fields:
``name``
The name of the component. This is always the same as the key in the
``components`` object.
``displayName``
The value of the ``DISPLAY_NAME`` field passed to
:command:`cpack_add_component`.
``description``
The value of the ``DESCRIPTION`` field passed to
:command:`cpack_add_component`.
``isHidden``
True if ``HIDDEN`` was passed to :command:`cpack_add_component`, false if
it was not.
``isRequired``
True if ``REQUIRED`` was passed to :command:`cpack_add_component`, false if
it was not.
``isDisabledByDefault``
True if ``DISABLED`` was passed to :command:`cpack_add_component`, false if
it was not.
``group``
Only present if ``GROUP`` was passed to :command:`cpack_add_component`. If
so, this field is a string value containing the component's group.
``dependencies``
An array of components the component depends on. This contains the values
in the ``DEPENDS`` argument passed to :command:`cpack_add_component`. If no
``DEPENDS`` argument was passed, this is an empty list.
``installationTypes``
An array of installation types the component is part of. This contains the
values in the ``INSTALL_TYPES`` argument passed to
:command:`cpack_add_component`. If no ``INSTALL_TYPES`` argument was
passed, this is an empty list.
``isDownloaded``
True if ``DOWNLOADED`` was passed to :command:`cpack_add_component`, false
if it was not.
``archiveFile``
The name of the archive file passed with the ``ARCHIVE_FILE`` argument to
:command:`cpack_add_component`. If no ``ARCHIVE_FILE`` argument was passed,
this is an empty string.
``componentGroups``
The ``componentGroups`` field is an object with component group names as the
keys and objects describing the component groups as the values. The component
group objects have the following fields:
``name``
The name of the component group. This is always the same as the key in the
``componentGroups`` object.
``displayName``
The value of the ``DISPLAY_NAME`` field passed to
:command:`cpack_add_component_group`.
``description``
The value of the ``DESCRIPTION`` field passed to
:command:`cpack_add_component_group`.
``parentGroup``
Only present if ``PARENT_GROUP`` was passed to
:command:`cpack_add_component_group`. If so, this field is a string value
containing the component group's parent group.
``isExpandedByDefault``
True if ``EXPANDED`` was passed to :command:`cpack_add_component_group`,
false if it was not.
``isBold``
True if ``BOLD_TITLE`` was passed to :command:`cpack_add_component_group`,
false if it was not.
``components``
An array of names of components that are direct members of the group
(components that have this group as their ``GROUP``). Components of
subgroups are not included.
``subgroups``
An array of names of component groups that are subgroups of the group
(groups that have this group as their ``PARENT_GROUP``).
``installationTypes``
The ``installationTypes`` field is an object with installation type names as
the keys and objects describing the installation types as the values. The
installation type objects have the following fields:
``name``
The name of the installation type. This is always the same as the key in
the ``installationTypes`` object.
``displayName``
The value of the ``DISPLAY_NAME`` field passed to
:command:`cpack_add_install_type`.
``index``
The integer index of the installation type in the list.
``projects``
The ``projects`` field is an array of objects describing CMake projects which
comprise the CPack project. The values in this field are derived from
:variable:`CPACK_INSTALL_CMAKE_PROJECTS`. In most cases, this will be only a
single project. The project objects have the following fields:
``projectName``
The project name passed to :variable:`CPACK_INSTALL_CMAKE_PROJECTS`.

Variables specific to CPack External generator
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
.. variable:: CPACK_EXT_REQUESTED_VERSIONS
This variable is used to request a specific version of the CPack External
generator. It is a list of ``major.minor`` values, separated by semicolons.
If this variable is set to a non-empty value, the CPack External generator
will iterate through each item in the list to search for a version that it
knows how to generate. Requested versions should be listed in order of
descending preference by the client software, as the first matching version
in the list will be generated.
The generator knows how to generate the version if it has a versioned
generator whose major version exactly matches the requested major version,
and whose minor version is greater than or equal to the requested minor
version. For example, if ``CPACK_EXT_REQUESTED_VERSIONS`` contains 1.0, and
the CPack External generator knows how to generate 1.1, it will generate 1.1.
If the generator doesn't know how to generate a version in the list, it skips
the version and looks at the next one. If it doesn't know how to generate any
of the requested versions, an error is thrown.
If this variable is not set, or is empty, the CPack External generator will
generate the highest major and minor version that it knows how to generate.
If an invalid version is encountered in ``CPACK_EXT_REQUESTED_VERSIONS`` (one
that doesn't match ``major.minor``, where ``major`` and ``minor`` are
integers), it is ignored.
.. variable:: CPACK_EXT_ENABLE_STAGING
This variable can be set to true to enable optional installation
into a temporary staging area which can then be picked up
and packaged by an external packaging tool.
The top level directory used by CPack for the current packaging
task is contained in ``CPACK_TOPLEVEL_DIRECTORY``.
It is automatically cleaned up on each run before packaging is initiated
and can be used for custom temporary files required by
the external packaging tool.
It also contains the staging area ``CPACK_TEMPORARY_DIRECTORY``
into which CPack performs the installation when staging is enabled.
.. variable:: CPACK_EXT_PACKAGE_SCRIPT
This variable can optionally specify the full path to
a CMake script file to be run as part of the CPack invocation.
It is invoked after (optional) staging took place and may
run an external packaging tool. The script has access to
the variables defined by the CPack config file.

CPack FreeBSD Generator
-----------------------
The built in (binary) CPack FreeBSD (pkg) generator (Unix only)
Variables specific to CPack FreeBSD (pkg) generator
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The CPack FreeBSD generator may be used to create pkg(8) packages -- these may
be used on FreeBSD, DragonflyBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, but also on Linux or OSX,
depending on the installed package-management tools -- using :module:`CPack`.
The CPack FreeBSD generator is a :module:`CPack` generator and uses the
``CPACK_XXX`` variables used by :module:`CPack`. It tries to re-use packaging
information that may already be specified for Debian packages for the
:cpack_gen:`CPack Deb Generator`. It also tries to re-use RPM packaging
information when Debian does not specify.
The CPack FreeBSD generator should work on any host with libpkg installed. The
packages it produces are specific to the host architecture and ABI.
The CPack FreeBSD generator sets package-metadata through
:code:`CPACK_FREEBSD_XXX` variables. The CPack FreeBSD generator, unlike the
CPack Deb generator, does not specially support componentized packages; a
single package is created from all the software artifacts created through
CMake.
All of the variables can be set specifically for FreeBSD packaging in
the CPackConfig file or in CMakeLists.txt, but most of them have defaults
that use general settings (e.g. CMAKE_PROJECT_NAME) or Debian-specific
variables when those make sense (e.g. the homepage of an upstream project
is usually unchanged by the flavor of packaging). When there is no Debian
information to fall back on, but the RPM packaging has it, fall back to
the RPM information (e.g. package license).
.. variable:: CPACK_FREEBSD_PACKAGE_NAME
Sets the package name (in the package manifest, but also affects the
output filename).
* Mandatory: YES
* Default:
- :variable:`CPACK_PACKAGE_NAME` (this is always set by CPack itself,
based on CMAKE_PROJECT_NAME).
.. variable:: CPACK_FREEBSD_PACKAGE_COMMENT
Sets the package comment. This is the short description displayed by
pkg(8) in standard "pkg info" output.
* Mandatory: YES
* Default:
- :variable:`CPACK_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION_SUMMARY` (this is always set
by CPack itself, if nothing else sets it explicitly).
- :variable:`PROJECT_DESCRIPTION` (this can be set with the DESCRIPTION
parameter for :command:`project`).
.. variable:: CPACK_FREEBSD_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION
Sets the package description. This is the long description of the package,
given by "pkg info" with a specific package as argument.
* Mandatory: YES
* Default:
- :variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION` (this may be set already
for Debian packaging, so we may as well re-use it).
.. variable:: CPACK_FREEBSD_PACKAGE_WWW
The URL of the web site for this package, preferably (when applicable) the
site from which the original source can be obtained and any additional
upstream documentation or information may be found.
* Mandatory: YES
* Default:
- :variable:`CMAKE_PROJECT_HOMEPAGE_URL`, or if that is not set,
:variable:`CPACK_DEBIAN_PACKAGE_HOMEPAGE` (this may be set already
for Debian packaging, so we may as well re-use it).
.. variable:: CPACK_FREEBSD_PACKAGE_LICENSE
The license, or licenses, which apply to this software package. This must
be one or more license-identifiers that pkg recognizes as acceptable license
identifiers (e.g. "GPLv2").
* Mandatory: YES
* Default:
- :variable:`CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_LICENSE`
.. variable:: CPACK_FREEBSD_PACKAGE_LICENSE_LOGIC
This variable is only of importance if there is more than one license.
The default is "single", which is only applicable to a single license.
Other acceptable values are determined by pkg -- those are "dual" or "multi" --
meaning choice (OR) or simultaneous (AND) application of the licenses.
* Mandatory: NO
* Default: single
.. variable:: CPACK_FREEBSD_PACKAGE_MAINTAINER
The FreeBSD maintainer (e.g. kde@freebsd.org) of this package.
* Mandatory: YES
* Default: none
.. variable:: CPACK_FREEBSD_PACKAGE_ORIGIN
The origin (ports label) of this package; for packages built by CPack
outside of the ports system this is of less importance. The default
puts the package somewhere under misc/, as a stopgap.
* Mandatory: YES
* Default: misc/<package name>
.. variable:: CPACK_FREEBSD_PACKAGE_CATEGORIES
The ports categories where this package lives (if it were to be built
from ports). If none is set a single category is determined based on
the package origin.
* Mandatory: YES
* Default: derived from ORIGIN
.. variable:: CPACK_FREEBSD_PACKAGE_DEPS
A list of package origins that should be added as package dependencies.
These are in the form <category>/<packagename>, e.g. x11/libkonq.
No version information needs to be provided (this is not included
in the manifest).
* Mandatory: NO
* Default: empty

CPack IFW Generator
-------------------
See :module:`CPackIFW` for details on the CPackIFW module.
.. _QtIFW: http://doc.qt.io/qtinstallerframework/index.html
Overview
^^^^^^^^
CPack ``IFW`` generator helps you to create online and offline
binary cross-platform installers with a graphical user interface.
CPack IFW generator prepares project installation and generates configuration
and meta information for QtIFW_ tools.
The QtIFW_ provides a set of tools and utilities to create
installers for the supported desktop Qt platforms: Linux, Microsoft Windows,
and macOS.
You should also install QtIFW_ to use CPack ``IFW`` generator.
Hints
^^^^^
Generally, the CPack ``IFW`` generator automatically finds QtIFW_ tools,
but if you don't use a default path for installation of the QtIFW_ tools,
the path may be specified in either a CMake or an environment variable:
.. variable:: CPACK_IFW_ROOT
An CMake variable which specifies the location of the QtIFW_ tool suite.
The variable will be cached in the ``CPackConfig.cmake`` file and used at
CPack runtime.
.. variable:: QTIFWDIR
An environment variable which specifies the location of the QtIFW_ tool
suite.
.. note::
The specified path should not contain "bin" at the end
(for example: "D:\\DevTools\\QtIFW2.0.5").
The :variable:`CPACK_IFW_ROOT` variable has a higher priority and overrides
the value of the :variable:`QTIFWDIR` variable.
Internationalization
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Some variables and command arguments support internationalization via
CMake script. This is an optional feature.
Installers created by QtIFW_ tools have built-in support for
internationalization and many phrases are localized to many languages,
but this does not apply to the description of the your components and groups
that will be distributed.
Localization of the description of your components and groups is useful for
users of your installers.
A localized variable or argument can contain a single default value, and a
set of pairs the name of the locale and the localized value.
For example:
.. code-block:: cmake
set(LOCALIZABLE_VARIABLE "Default value"
en "English value"
en_US "American value"
en_GB "Great Britain value"
)

:command:`cpack_add_component`.
Then you would use the command :command:`cpack_configure_downloads`.
If you set ``ALL`` option all components will be downloaded.
You also can use command :command:`cpack_ifw_add_repository` and
variable :variable:`CPACK_IFW_DOWNLOAD_ALL` for more specific configuration.
CPack IFW generator creates "repository" dir in current binary dir. You
would copy content of this dir to specified ``site`` (``url``).

CPack NuGet Generator
---------------------
When build a NuGet package there is no direct way to control an output
filename due a lack of the corresponding CLI option of NuGet, so there
is no ``CPACK_NUGET_PACKAGE_FILENAME`` variable. To form the output filename
NuGet uses the package name and the version according to its built-in rules.
Also, be aware that including a top level directory
(``CPACK_INCLUDE_TOPLEVEL_DIRECTORY``) is ignored by this generator.

PackageMaker CPack generator (macOS).
Variables specific to CPack PackageMaker generator
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The following variable is specific to installers built on Mac
macOS using PackageMaker:
.. variable:: CPACK_OSX_PACKAGE_VERSION
The version of macOS that the resulting PackageMaker archive should be
compatible with. Different versions of macOS support different
features. For example, CPack can only build component-based installers for
macOS 10.4 or newer, and can only build installers that download
component son-the-fly for macOS 10.5 or newer. If left blank, this value
will be set to the minimum version of macOS that supports the requested
features. Set this variable to some value (e.g., 10.4) only if you want to
guarantee that your installer will work on that version of macOS, and
don't mind missing extra features available in the installer shipping with
later versions of macOS.

.. variable:: CPACK_COMMAND_PRODUCTBUILD
Path to the ``productbuild(1)`` command used to generate a product archive for
the macOS Installer or Mac App Store. This variable can be used to override
the automatically detected command (or specify its location if the
auto-detection fails to find it).
.. variable:: CPACK_PRODUCTBUILD_IDENTITY_NAME
Adds a digital signature to the resulting package.
.. variable:: CPACK_PRODUCTBUILD_KEYCHAIN_PATH
Specify a specific keychain to search for the signing identity.
.. variable:: CPACK_COMMAND_PKGBUILD
Path to the ``pkgbuild(1)`` command used to generate an macOS component package
on macOS. This variable can be used to override the automatically detected
command (or specify its location if the auto-detection fails to find it).
.. variable:: CPACK_PKGBUILD_IDENTITY_NAME
Adds a digital signature to the resulting package.
.. variable:: CPACK_PKGBUILD_KEYCHAIN_PATH
Specify a specific keychain to search for the signing identity.
.. variable:: CPACK_PREFLIGHT_<COMP>_SCRIPT
Full path to a file that will be used as the ``preinstall`` script for the
named ``<COMP>`` component's package, where ``<COMP>`` is the uppercased
component name. No ``preinstall`` script is added if this variable is not
defined for a given component.
.. variable:: CPACK_POSTFLIGHT_<COMP>_SCRIPT
Full path to a file that will be used as the ``postinstall`` script for the
named ``<COMP>`` component's package, where ``<COMP>`` is the uppercased
component name. No ``postinstall`` script is added if this variable is not
defined for a given component.
.. variable:: CPACK_PRODUCTBUILD_RESOURCES_DIR
If specified the productbuild generator copies files from this directory
(including subdirectories) to the ``Resources`` directory. This is done
before the :variable:`CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_WELCOME`,
:variable:`CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_README`, and
:variable:`CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_LICENSE` files are copied.

CPack RPM Generator
-------------------
The built in (binary) CPack RPM generator (Unix only)
Variables specific to CPack RPM generator
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The CPack RPM generator may be used to create RPM packages using :module:`CPack`.
The CPack RPM generator is a :module:`CPack` generator thus it uses the
``CPACK_XXX`` variables used by :module:`CPack`.
The CPack RPM generator has specific features which are controlled by the specifics
:code:`CPACK_RPM_XXX` variables.
:code:`CPACK_RPM_<COMPONENT>_XXXX` variables may be used in order to have
**component** specific values. Note however that ``<COMPONENT>`` refers to the
**grouping name** written in upper case. It may be either a component name or
a component GROUP name. Usually those variables correspond to RPM spec file
entities. One may find information about spec files here
http://www.rpm.org/wiki/Docs
.. note::
`<COMPONENT>` part of variables is preferred to be in upper case (for e.g. if
component is named `foo` then use `CPACK_RPM_FOO_XXXX` variable name format)
as is with other `CPACK_<COMPONENT>_XXXX` variables.
For the purposes of back compatibility (CMake/CPack version 3.5 and lower)
support for same cased component (e.g. `fOo` would be used as
`CPACK_RPM_fOo_XXXX`) is still supported for variables defined in older
versions of CMake/CPack but is not guaranteed for variables that
will be added in the future. For the sake of back compatibility same cased
component variables also override upper cased versions where both are
present.
Here are some CPack RPM generator wiki resources that are here for historic reasons and
are no longer maintained but may still prove useful:
- https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/community/wikis/doc/cpack/Configuration
- https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/community/wikis/doc/cpack/PackageGenerators#rpm-unix-only
List of CPack RPM generator specific variables:
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_COMPONENT_INSTALL
Enable component packaging for CPack RPM generator
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : OFF
If enabled (ON) multiple packages are generated. By default a single package
containing files of all components is generated.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_SUMMARY
CPACK_RPM_<component>_PACKAGE_SUMMARY
The RPM package summary.
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : :variable:`CPACK_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION_SUMMARY`
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_NAME
CPACK_RPM_<component>_PACKAGE_NAME
The RPM package name.
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : :variable:`CPACK_PACKAGE_NAME`
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_FILE_NAME
CPACK_RPM_<component>_FILE_NAME
Package file name.
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : ``<CPACK_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME>[-<component>].rpm`` with spaces
replaced by '-'
This may be set to ``RPM-DEFAULT`` to allow rpmbuild tool to generate package
file name by itself.
Alternatively provided package file name must end with ``.rpm`` suffix.
.. note::
By using user provided spec file, rpm macro extensions such as for
generating debuginfo packages or by simply using multiple components more
than one rpm file may be generated, either from a single spec file or from
multiple spec files (each component execution produces its own spec file).
In such cases duplicate file names may occur as a result of this variable
setting or spec file content structure. Duplicate files get overwritten
and it is up to the packager to set the variables in a manner that will
prevent such errors.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_MAIN_COMPONENT
Main component that is packaged without component suffix.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
This variable can be set to any component or group name so that component or
group rpm package is generated without component suffix in filename and
package name.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_EPOCH
The RPM package epoch
* Mandatory : No
* Default : -
Optional number that should be incremented when changing versioning schemas
or fixing mistakes in the version numbers of older packages.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_VERSION
The RPM package version.
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : :variable:`CPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION`
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_ARCHITECTURE
CPACK_RPM_<component>_PACKAGE_ARCHITECTURE
The RPM package architecture.
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : Native architecture output by ``uname -m``
This may be set to ``noarch`` if you know you are building a noarch package.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_RELEASE
The RPM package release.
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : 1
This is the numbering of the RPM package itself, i.e. the version of the
packaging and not the version of the content (see
:variable:`CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_VERSION`). One may change the default value if
the previous packaging was buggy and/or you want to put here a fancy Linux
distro specific numbering.
.. note::
This is the string that goes into the RPM ``Release:`` field. Some distros
(e.g. Fedora, CentOS) require ``1%{?dist}`` format and not just a number.
``%{?dist}`` part can be added by setting :variable:`CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_RELEASE_DIST`.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_RELEASE_DIST
The dist tag that is added RPM ``Release:`` field.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : OFF
This is the reported ``%{dist}`` tag from the current distribution or empty
``%{dist}`` if RPM macro is not set. If this variable is set then RPM
``Release:`` field value is set to ``${CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_RELEASE}%{?dist}``.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_LICENSE
The RPM package license policy.
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : "unknown"
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_GROUP
CPACK_RPM_<component>_PACKAGE_GROUP

.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION
CPACK_RPM_<component>_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION
RPM package description.
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : :variable:`CPACK_COMPONENT_<compName>_DESCRIPTION` (component
based installers only) if set, :variable:`CPACK_PACKAGE_DESCRIPTION_FILE`
if set or "no package description available"
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_COMPRESSION_TYPE
RPM compression type.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
May be used to override RPM compression type to be used to build the
RPM. For example some Linux distribution now default to lzma or xz
compression whereas older cannot use such RPM. Using this one can enforce
compression type to be used.
Possible values are:
- lzma
- xz
- bzip2
- gzip
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_AUTOREQ
CPACK_RPM_<component>_PACKAGE_AUTOREQ

for more details.
.. note::
By default automatic detection feature is enabled by rpm.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_REQUIRES
CPACK_RPM_<component>_PACKAGE_REQUIRES
RPM spec requires field.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
May be used to set RPM dependencies (requires). Note that you must enclose
the complete requires string between quotes, for example::

The required package list of an RPM file could be printed with::
rpm -qp --requires file.rpm
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_CONFLICTS
CPACK_RPM_<component>_PACKAGE_CONFLICTS
RPM spec conflicts field.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
May be used to set negative RPM dependencies (conflicts). Note that you must
enclose the complete requires string between quotes, for example::

.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_RELOCATABLE
build a relocatable RPM.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : CPACK_PACKAGE_RELOCATABLE
If this variable is set to TRUE or ON, the CPack RPM generator will try
to build a relocatable RPM package. A relocatable RPM may
be installed using::
rpm --prefix or --relocate
in order to install it at an alternate place see rpm(8). Note that
currently this may fail if :variable:`CPACK_SET_DESTDIR` is set to ``ON``. If
:variable:`CPACK_SET_DESTDIR` is set then you will get a warning message but
if there is file installed with absolute path you'll get unexpected behavior.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_SPEC_INSTALL_POST
Deprecated - use :variable:`CPACK_RPM_SPEC_MORE_DEFINE` instead.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
* Deprecated: YES
May be used to override the ``__spec_install_post`` section within the
generated spec file. This affects the install step during package creation,
not during package installation. For adding operations to be performed
during package installation, use
:variable:`CPACK_RPM_POST_INSTALL_SCRIPT_FILE` instead.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_SPEC_MORE_DEFINE
RPM extended spec definitions lines.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
May be used to add any ``%define`` lines to the generated spec file. An
example of its use is to prevent stripping of executables (but note that
this may also disable other default post install processing)::
set(CPACK_RPM_SPEC_MORE_DEFINE "%define __spec_install_post /bin/true")
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_DEBUG
Toggle CPack RPM generator debug output.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
May be set when invoking cpack in order to trace debug information
during CPack RPM run. For example you may launch CPack like this::
cpack -D CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_DEBUG=1 -G RPM
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_USER_BINARY_SPECFILE
CPACK_RPM_<componentName>_USER_BINARY_SPECFILE
A user provided spec file.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
May be set by the user in order to specify a USER binary spec file
to be used by the CPack RPM generator instead of generating the file.
The specified file will be processed by configure_file( @ONLY).
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_GENERATE_USER_BINARY_SPECFILE_TEMPLATE
Spec file template.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
If set CPack will generate a template for USER specified binary
spec file and stop with an error. For example launch CPack like this::
cpack -D CPACK_RPM_GENERATE_USER_BINARY_SPECFILE_TEMPLATE=1 -G RPM
The user may then use this file in order to hand-craft is own
binary spec file which may be used with
:variable:`CPACK_RPM_USER_BINARY_SPECFILE`.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PRE_INSTALL_SCRIPT_FILE
CPACK_RPM_PRE_UNINSTALL_SCRIPT_FILE
Path to file containing pre (un)install script.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
May be used to embed a pre (un)installation script in the spec file.
The referred script file (or both) will be read and directly
put after the ``%pre`` or ``%preun`` section
If :variable:`CPACK_RPM_COMPONENT_INSTALL` is set to ON the (un)install
script for each component can be overridden with
``CPACK_RPM_<COMPONENT>_PRE_INSTALL_SCRIPT_FILE`` and
``CPACK_RPM_<COMPONENT>_PRE_UNINSTALL_SCRIPT_FILE``.
One may verify which scriptlet has been included with::
rpm -qp --scripts package.rpm
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_POST_INSTALL_SCRIPT_FILE
CPACK_RPM_POST_UNINSTALL_SCRIPT_FILE
Path to file containing post (un)install script.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
May be used to embed a post (un)installation script in the spec file.
The referred script file (or both) will be read and directly
put after the ``%post`` or ``%postun`` section.
If :variable:`CPACK_RPM_COMPONENT_INSTALL` is set to ON the (un)install
script for each component can be overridden with
``CPACK_RPM_<COMPONENT>_POST_INSTALL_SCRIPT_FILE`` and
``CPACK_RPM_<COMPONENT>_POST_UNINSTALL_SCRIPT_FILE``.
One may verify which scriptlet has been included with::
rpm -qp --scripts package.rpm
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_USER_FILELIST
CPACK_RPM_<COMPONENT>_USER_FILELIST
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
May be used to explicitly specify ``%(<directive>)`` file line
in the spec file. Like ``%config(noreplace)`` or any other directive
that be found in the ``%files`` section. You can have multiple directives
per line, as in ``%attr(600,root,root) %config(noreplace)``. Since
the CPack RPM generator is generating the list of files (and directories) the
user specified files of the ``CPACK_RPM_<COMPONENT>_USER_FILELIST`` list will
be removed from the generated list. If referring to directories do
not add a trailing slash.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_CHANGELOG_FILE
RPM changelog file.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
May be used to embed a changelog in the spec file.
The referred file will be read and directly put after the ``%changelog``
section.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_EXCLUDE_FROM_AUTO_FILELIST
list of path to be excluded.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : /etc /etc/init.d /usr /usr/bin /usr/include /usr/lib
/usr/libx32 /usr/lib64 /usr/share /usr/share/aclocal
/usr/share/doc
May be used to exclude path (directories or files) from the auto-generated
list of paths discovered by CPack RPM. The default value contains a
reasonable set of values if the variable is not defined by the user. If the
variable is defined by the user then the CPack RPM generator will NOT any of
the default path. If you want to add some path to the default list then you
can use :variable:`CPACK_RPM_EXCLUDE_FROM_AUTO_FILELIST_ADDITION` variable.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_EXCLUDE_FROM_AUTO_FILELIST_ADDITION
additional list of path to be excluded.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
May be used to add more exclude path (directories or files) from the initial
default list of excluded paths. See
:variable:`CPACK_RPM_EXCLUDE_FROM_AUTO_FILELIST`.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_RELOCATION_PATHS
Packages relocation paths list.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
May be used to specify more than one relocation path per relocatable RPM.
Variable contains a list of relocation paths that if relative are prefixed
by the value of :variable:`CPACK_RPM_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_PREFIX` or by the
value of :variable:`CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX` if the component version
is not provided.
Variable is not component based as its content can be used to set a different
path prefix for e.g. binary dir and documentation dir at the same time.
Only prefixes that are required by a certain component are added to that
component - component must contain at least one file/directory/symbolic link
with :variable:`CPACK_RPM_RELOCATION_PATHS` prefix for a certain relocation
path to be added. Package will not contain any relocation paths if there are
no files/directories/symbolic links on any of the provided prefix locations.
Packages that either do not contain any relocation paths or contain
files/directories/symbolic links that are outside relocation paths print
out an ``AUTHOR_WARNING`` that RPM will be partially relocatable.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_PREFIX
Per component relocation path install prefix.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX
May be used to set per component :variable:`CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX`
for relocatable RPM packages.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_NO_INSTALL_PREFIX_RELOCATION
CPACK_RPM_NO_<COMPONENT>_INSTALL_PREFIX_RELOCATION
Removal of default install prefix from relocation paths list.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX or CPACK_RPM_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_PREFIX
are treated as one of relocation paths
May be used to remove CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX and CPACK_RPM_<COMPONENT>_PACKAGE_PREFIX
from relocatable RPM prefix paths.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_ADDITIONAL_MAN_DIRS
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
May be used to set additional man dirs that could potentially be compressed
by brp-compress RPM macro. Variable content must be a list of regular
expressions that point to directories containing man files or to man files
directly. Note that in order to compress man pages a path must also be
present in brp-compress RPM script and that brp-compress script must be
added to RPM configuration by the operating system.
Regular expressions that are added by default were taken from brp-compress
RPM macro:
- /usr/man/man.*
- /usr/man/.*/man.*
- /usr/info.*
- /usr/share/man/man.*
- /usr/share/man/.*/man.*
- /usr/share/info.*
- /usr/kerberos/man.*
- /usr/X11R6/man/man.*
- /usr/lib/perl5/man/man.*
- /usr/share/doc/.*/man/man.*
- /usr/lib/.*/man/man.*
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_DEFAULT_USER
CPACK_RPM_<compName>_DEFAULT_USER
default user ownership of RPM content
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : root
Value should be user name and not UID.
Note that <compName> must be in upper-case.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_DEFAULT_GROUP
CPACK_RPM_<compName>_DEFAULT_GROUP
default group ownership of RPM content
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : root
Value should be group name and not GID.
Note that <compName> must be in upper-case.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_DEFAULT_FILE_PERMISSIONS
CPACK_RPM_<compName>_DEFAULT_FILE_PERMISSIONS
default permissions used for packaged files
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : - (system default)
Accepted values are lists with ``PERMISSIONS``. Valid permissions
are:
- OWNER_READ
- OWNER_WRITE
- OWNER_EXECUTE
- GROUP_READ
- GROUP_WRITE
- GROUP_EXECUTE
- WORLD_READ
- WORLD_WRITE
- WORLD_EXECUTE
Note that <compName> must be in upper-case.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_DEFAULT_DIR_PERMISSIONS
CPACK_RPM_<compName>_DEFAULT_DIR_PERMISSIONS
default permissions used for packaged directories
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : - (system default)
Accepted values are lists with PERMISSIONS. Valid permissions
are the same as for :variable:`CPACK_RPM_DEFAULT_FILE_PERMISSIONS`.
Note that <compName> must be in upper-case.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_INSTALL_WITH_EXEC
force execute permissions on programs and shared libraries
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : - (system default)
Force set owner, group and world execute permissions on programs and shared
libraries. This can be used for creating valid rpm packages on systems such
as Debian where shared libraries do not have execute permissions set.
.. note::
Programs and shared libraries without execute permissions are ignored during
separation of debug symbols from the binary for debuginfo packages.
Packaging of Symbolic Links
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The CPack RPM generator supports packaging of symbolic links::
execute_process(COMMAND ${CMAKE_COMMAND}
-E create_symlink <relative_path_location> <symlink_name>)
install(FILES ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/<symlink_name>
DESTINATION <symlink_location> COMPONENT libraries)
Symbolic links will be optimized (paths will be shortened if possible)
before being added to the package or if multiple relocation paths are
detected, a post install symlink relocation script will be generated.
Symbolic links may point to locations that are not packaged by the same
package (either a different component or even not packaged at all) but
those locations will be treated as if they were a part of the package
while determining if symlink should be either created or present in a
post install script - depending on relocation paths.
Symbolic links that point to locations outside packaging path produce a
warning and are treated as non relocatable permanent symbolic links.
Currently there are a few limitations though:
* For component based packaging component interdependency is not checked
when processing symbolic links. Symbolic links pointing to content of
a different component are treated the same way as if pointing to location
that will not be packaged.
* Symbolic links pointing to a location through one or more intermediate
symbolic links will not be handled differently - if the intermediate
symbolic link(s) is also on a relocatable path, relocating it during
package installation may cause initial symbolic link to point to an
invalid location.
Packaging of debug information
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Debuginfo packages contain debug symbols and sources for debugging packaged
binaries.
Debuginfo RPM packaging has its own set of variables:
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_DEBUGINFO_PACKAGE
CPACK_RPM_<component>_DEBUGINFO_PACKAGE
Enable generation of debuginfo RPM package(s).
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : OFF
.. note::
Binaries must contain debug symbols before packaging so use either ``Debug``
or ``RelWithDebInfo`` for :variable:`CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE` variable value.
.. note::
Packages generated from packages without binary files, with binary files but
without execute permissions or without debug symbols will cause packaging
termination.
.. variable:: CPACK_BUILD_SOURCE_DIRS
Provides locations of root directories of source files from which binaries
were built.
* Mandatory : YES if :variable:`CPACK_RPM_DEBUGINFO_PACKAGE` is set
* Default : -
.. note::
For CMake project :variable:`CPACK_BUILD_SOURCE_DIRS` is set by default to
point to :variable:`CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR` and :variable:`CMAKE_BINARY_DIR` paths.
.. note::
Sources with path prefixes that do not fall under any location provided with
:variable:`CPACK_BUILD_SOURCE_DIRS` will not be present in debuginfo package.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_BUILD_SOURCE_DIRS_PREFIX
CPACK_RPM_<component>_BUILD_SOURCE_DIRS_PREFIX
Prefix of location where sources will be placed during package installation.
* Mandatory : YES if :variable:`CPACK_RPM_DEBUGINFO_PACKAGE` is set
* Default : "/usr/src/debug/<CPACK_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME>" and
for component packaging "/usr/src/debug/<CPACK_PACKAGE_FILE_NAME>-<component>"
.. note::
Each source path prefix is additionally suffixed by ``src_<index>`` where
index is index of the path used from :variable:`CPACK_BUILD_SOURCE_DIRS`
variable. This produces ``<CPACK_RPM_BUILD_SOURCE_DIRS_PREFIX>/src_<index>``
replacement path.
Limitation is that replaced path part must be shorter or of equal
length than the length of its replacement. If that is not the case either
:variable:`CPACK_RPM_BUILD_SOURCE_DIRS_PREFIX` variable has to be set to
a shorter path or source directories must be placed on a longer path.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_DEBUGINFO_EXCLUDE_DIRS
Directories containing sources that should be excluded from debuginfo packages.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : "/usr /usr/src /usr/src/debug"
Listed paths are owned by other RPM packages and should therefore not be
deleted on debuginfo package uninstallation.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_DEBUGINFO_EXCLUDE_DIRS_ADDITION
Paths that should be appended to :variable:`CPACK_RPM_DEBUGINFO_EXCLUDE_DIRS`
for exclusion.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_DEBUGINFO_SINGLE_PACKAGE
Create a single debuginfo package even if components packaging is set.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : OFF
When this variable is enabled it produces a single debuginfo package even if
component packaging is enabled.
When using this feature in combination with components packaging and there is
more than one component this variable requires :variable:`CPACK_RPM_MAIN_COMPONENT`
to be set.
.. note::
If none of the :variable:`CPACK_RPM_<component>_DEBUGINFO_PACKAGE` variables
is set then :variable:`CPACK_RPM_DEBUGINFO_PACKAGE` is automatically set to
``ON`` when :variable:`CPACK_RPM_DEBUGINFO_SINGLE_PACKAGE` is set.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_DEBUGINFO_FILE_NAME
CPACK_RPM_<component>_DEBUGINFO_FILE_NAME
Debuginfo package file name.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : rpmbuild tool generated package file name
Alternatively provided debuginfo package file name must end with ``.rpm``
suffix and should differ from file names of other generated packages.
Variable may contain ``@cpack_component@`` placeholder which will be
replaced by component name if component packaging is enabled otherwise it
deletes the placeholder.
Setting the variable to ``RPM-DEFAULT`` may be used to explicitly set
filename generation to default.
.. note::
:variable:`CPACK_RPM_FILE_NAME` also supports rpmbuild tool generated package
file name - disabled by default but can be enabled by setting the variable to
``RPM-DEFAULT``.
Packaging of sources (SRPM)
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
SRPM packaging is enabled by setting :variable:`CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_SOURCES`
variable while usually using :variable:`CPACK_INSTALLED_DIRECTORIES` variable
to provide directory containing CMakeLists.txt and source files.
For CMake projects SRPM package would be produced by executing::
cpack -G RPM --config ./CPackSourceConfig.cmake
.. note::
Produced SRPM package is expected to be built with :manual:`cmake(1)` executable
and packaged with :manual:`cpack(1)` executable so CMakeLists.txt has to be
located in root source directory and must be able to generate binary rpm
packages by executing ``cpack -G`` command. The two executables as well as
rpmbuild must also be present when generating binary rpm packages from the
produced SRPM package.
Once the SRPM package is generated it can be used to generate binary packages
by creating a directory structure for rpm generation and executing rpmbuild
tool::
mkdir -p build_dir/{BUILD,BUILDROOT,RPMS,SOURCES,SPECS,SRPMS}
rpmbuild --define "_topdir <path_to_build_dir>" --rebuild <SRPM_file_name>
Generated packages will be located in build_dir/RPMS directory or its sub
directories.
.. note::
SRPM package internally uses CPack/RPM generator to generate binary packages
so CMakeScripts.txt can decide during the SRPM to binary rpm generation step
what content the package(s) should have as well as how they should be packaged
(monolithic or components). CMake can decide this for e.g. by reading environment
variables set by the package manager before starting the process of generating
binary rpm packages. This way a single SRPM package can be used to produce
different binary rpm packages on different platforms depending on the platform's
packaging rules.
Source RPM packaging has its own set of variables:
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_SOURCES
Should the content be packaged as a source rpm (default is binary rpm).
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : OFF
.. note::
For cmake projects :variable:`CPACK_RPM_PACKAGE_SOURCES` variable is set
to ``OFF`` in CPackConfig.cmake and ``ON`` in CPackSourceConfig.cmake
generated files.
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_SOURCE_PKG_BUILD_PARAMS
Additional command-line parameters provided to :manual:`cmake(1)` executable.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
.. variable:: CPACK_RPM_SOURCE_PKG_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX
Packaging install prefix that would be provided in :variable:`CPACK_PACKAGING_INSTALL_PREFIX`
variable for producing binary RPM packages.
* Mandatory : YES
* Default : "/"
.. VARIABLE:: CPACK_RPM_BUILDREQUIRES
List of source rpm build dependencies.
* Mandatory : NO
* Default : -
May be used to set source RPM build dependencies (BuildRequires). Note that
you must enclose the complete build requirements string between quotes, for
example::
set(CPACK_RPM_BUILDREQUIRES "python >= 2.5.0, cmake >= 2.8")

CPack WiX Generator
-------------------
CPack WiX generator specific options
Variables specific to CPack WiX generator
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The following variables are specific to the installers built on
Windows using WiX.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_UPGRADE_GUID
Upgrade GUID (``Product/@UpgradeCode``)
Will be automatically generated unless explicitly provided.
It should be explicitly set to a constant generated globally unique
identifier (GUID) to allow your installers to replace existing
installations that use the same GUID.
You may for example explicitly set this variable in your
CMakeLists.txt to the value that has been generated per default. You
should not use GUIDs that you did not generate yourself or which may
belong to other projects.
A GUID shall have the following fixed length syntax::
XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX
(each X represents an uppercase hexadecimal digit)
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_PRODUCT_GUID
Product GUID (``Product/@Id``)
Will be automatically generated unless explicitly provided.
If explicitly provided this will set the Product Id of your installer.
The installer will abort if it detects a pre-existing installation that
uses the same GUID.
The GUID shall use the syntax described for CPACK_WIX_UPGRADE_GUID.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_LICENSE_RTF
RTF License File
If CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_LICENSE has an .rtf extension it is used as-is.
If CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_LICENSE has an .txt extension it is implicitly
converted to RTF by the WiX Generator.
The expected encoding of the .txt file is UTF-8.
With CPACK_WIX_LICENSE_RTF you can override the license file used by the
WiX Generator in case CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_LICENSE is in an unsupported
format or the .txt -> .rtf conversion does not work as expected.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_PRODUCT_ICON
The Icon shown next to the program name in Add/Remove programs.
If set, this icon is used in place of the default icon.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_UI_REF
This variable allows you to override the Id of the ``<UIRef>`` element
in the WiX template.
The default is ``WixUI_InstallDir`` in case no CPack components have
been defined and ``WixUI_FeatureTree`` otherwise.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_UI_BANNER
The bitmap will appear at the top of all installer pages other than the
welcome and completion dialogs.
If set, this image will replace the default banner image.
This image must be 493 by 58 pixels.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_UI_DIALOG
Background bitmap used on the welcome and completion dialogs.
If this variable is set, the installer will replace the default dialog
image.
This image must be 493 by 312 pixels.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_PROGRAM_MENU_FOLDER
Start menu folder name for launcher.
If this variable is not set, it will be initialized with CPACK_PACKAGE_NAME
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_CULTURES
Language(s) of the installer
Languages are compiled into the WixUI extension library. To use them,
simply provide the name of the culture. If you specify more than one
culture identifier in a comma or semicolon delimited list, the first one
that is found will be used. You can find a list of supported languages at:
http://wix.sourceforge.net/manual-wix3/WixUI_localization.htm
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_TEMPLATE
Template file for WiX generation
If this variable is set, the specified template will be used to generate
the WiX wxs file. This should be used if further customization of the
output is required.
If this variable is not set, the default MSI template included with CMake
will be used.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_PATCH_FILE
Optional list of XML files with fragments to be inserted into
generated WiX sources
This optional variable can be used to specify an XML file that the
WiX generator will use to inject fragments into its generated
source files.
Patch files understood by the CPack WiX generator
roughly follow this RELAX NG compact schema:
.. code-block:: none
start = CPackWiXPatch
CPackWiXPatch = element CPackWiXPatch { CPackWiXFragment* }
CPackWiXFragment = element CPackWiXFragment
{
attribute Id { string },
fragmentContent*
}
fragmentContent = element * - CPackWiXFragment
{
(attribute * { text } | text | fragmentContent)*
}
Currently fragments can be injected into most
Component, File, Directory and Feature elements.
The following additional special Ids can be used:
* ``#PRODUCT`` for the ``<Product>`` element.
* ``#PRODUCTFEATURE`` for the root ``<Feature>`` element.
The following example illustrates how this works.
Given that the WiX generator creates the following XML element:
.. code-block:: xml
<Component Id="CM_CP_applications.bin.my_libapp.exe" Guid="*"/>
The following XML patch file may be used to inject an Environment element
into it:
.. code-block:: xml
<CPackWiXPatch>
<CPackWiXFragment Id="CM_CP_applications.bin.my_libapp.exe">
<Environment Id="MyEnvironment" Action="set"
Name="MyVariableName" Value="MyVariableValue"/>
</CPackWiXFragment>
</CPackWiXPatch>
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_EXTRA_SOURCES
Extra WiX source files
This variable provides an optional list of extra WiX source files (.wxs)
that should be compiled and linked. The full path to source files is
required.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_EXTRA_OBJECTS
Extra WiX object files or libraries
This variable provides an optional list of extra WiX object (.wixobj)
and/or WiX library (.wixlib) files. The full path to objects and libraries
is required.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_EXTENSIONS
This variable provides a list of additional extensions for the WiX
tools light and candle.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_<TOOL>_EXTENSIONS
This is the tool specific version of CPACK_WIX_EXTENSIONS.
``<TOOL>`` can be either LIGHT or CANDLE.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_<TOOL>_EXTRA_FLAGS
This list variable allows you to pass additional
flags to the WiX tool ``<TOOL>``.
Use it at your own risk.
Future versions of CPack may generate flags which may be in conflict
with your own flags.
``<TOOL>`` can be either LIGHT or CANDLE.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_CMAKE_PACKAGE_REGISTRY
If this variable is set the generated installer will create
an entry in the windows registry key
``HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Kitware\CMake\Packages\<PackageName>``
The value for ``<PackageName>`` is provided by this variable.
Assuming you also install a CMake configuration file this will
allow other CMake projects to find your package with
the :command:`find_package` command.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_PROPERTY_<PROPERTY>
This variable can be used to provide a value for
the Windows Installer property ``<PROPERTY>``
The following list contains some example properties that can be used to
customize information under
"Programs and Features" (also known as "Add or Remove Programs")
* ARPCOMMENTS - Comments
* ARPHELPLINK - Help and support information URL
* ARPURLINFOABOUT - General information URL
* ARPURLUPDATEINFO - Update information URL
* ARPHELPTELEPHONE - Help and support telephone number
* ARPSIZE - Size (in kilobytes) of the application
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_ROOT_FEATURE_TITLE
Sets the name of the root install feature in the WIX installer. Same as
CPACK_COMPONENT_<compName>_DISPLAY_NAME for components.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_ROOT_FEATURE_DESCRIPTION
Sets the description of the root install feature in the WIX installer. Same as
CPACK_COMPONENT_<compName>_DESCRIPTION for components.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_SKIP_PROGRAM_FOLDER
If this variable is set to true, the default install location
of the generated package will be CPACK_PACKAGE_INSTALL_DIRECTORY directly.
The install location will not be located relatively below
ProgramFiles or ProgramFiles64.
.. note::
Installers created with this feature do not take differences
between the system on which the installer is created
and the system on which the installer might be used into account.
It is therefore possible that the installer e.g. might try to install
onto a drive that is unavailable or unintended or a path that does not
follow the localization or convention of the system on which the
installation is performed.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_ROOT_FOLDER_ID
This variable allows specification of a custom root folder ID.
The generator specific ``<64>`` token can be used for
folder IDs that come in 32-bit and 64-bit variants.
In 32-bit builds the token will expand empty while in 64-bit builds
it will expand to ``64``.
When unset generated installers will default installing to
``ProgramFiles<64>Folder``.
.. variable:: CPACK_WIX_ROOT
This variable can optionally be set to the root directory
of a custom WiX Toolset installation.
When unspecified CPack will try to locate a WiX Toolset
installation via the ``WIX`` environment variable instead.

The :command:`target_sources` command converts relative paths to absolute.
In CMake 3.13 and above, the :command:`target_sources` command now converts
relative source file paths to absolute paths in the following cases:
* Source files are added to the target's :prop_tgt:`INTERFACE_SOURCES`
property.
* The target's :prop_tgt:`SOURCE_DIR` property differs from
:variable:`CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR`.
A path that begins with a generator expression is always left unmodified.
This policy provides compatibility with projects that have not been updated
to expect this behavior. The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is to leave
all relative source file paths unmodified. The ``NEW`` behavior of this
policy is to convert relative paths to absolute according to above rules.
This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.13. CMake version
|release| warns when the policy is not set and uses ``OLD`` behavior.
Use the :command:`cmake_policy` command to set it to ``OLD`` or ``NEW``
explicitly.

may want to hard-code options of the subproject to build the way it needs.
For historical reasons in CMake 3.12 and below the :command:`option`
command *removes* a normal (non-cached) variable of the same name when:
* a cache entry of the specified name does not exist at all, or
* a cache entry of the specified name exists but has not been given
a type (e.g. via ``-D<name>=ON`` on the command line).
In both of these cases (typically on the first run in a new build tree),
the :command:`option` command gives the cache entry type ``BOOL`` and
removes any normal (non-cached) variable of the same name. In the
remaining case that the cache entry of the specified name already
exists and has a type (typically on later runs in a build tree), the
:command:`option` command changes nothing and any normal variable of
the same name remains set.
In CMake 3.13 and above the :command:`option` command prefers to
do nothing when a normal variable of the given name already exists.
It does not create or update a cache entry or remove the normal variable.
The new behavior is consistent between the first and later runs in a
build tree. This policy provides compatibility with projects that have
not been updated to expect the new behavior.
When the :command:`option` command sees a normal variable of the given
name:
* The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy is to proceed even when a normal
variable of the same name exists. If the cache entry does not already
exist and have a type then it is created and/or given a type and the
normal variable is removed.
* The ``NEW`` behavior for this policy is to do nothing when a normal
variable of the same name exists. The normal variable is not removed.
The cache entry is not created or updated and is ignored if it exists.
This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.13. CMake version
|release| warns when the policy is not set and uses ``OLD`` behavior.

Starting with CMake 3.13, :module:`UseSWIG` generates now standard target
names. This policy provides compatibility with projects that expect the legacy
behavior.
The ``OLD`` behavior for this policy relies on
``UseSWIG_TARGET_NAME_PREFERENCE`` variable that can be used to specify an
explicit preference. The value may be one of:
* ``LEGACY``: legacy strategy is applied. Variable
``SWIG_MODULE_<name>_REAL_NAME`` must be used to get real target name.
This is the default if not specified.
* ``STANDARD``: target name matches specified name.

:command:`target_link_libraries` allows use with targets in other directories.
Prior to CMake 3.13 the :command:`target_link_libraries` command did not
accept targets not created in the calling directory as its first argument
for calls that update the :prop_tgt:`LINK_LIBRARIES` of the target itself.
It did accidentally accept targets from other directories on calls that
only update the :prop_tgt:`INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES`, but would simply
add entries to the property as if the call were made in the original
directory. Thus link interface libraries specified this way were always
looked up by generators in the scope of the original target rather than
in the scope that called :command:`target_link_libraries`.
CMake 3.13 now allows the :command:`target_link_libraries` command to
be called from any directory to add link dependencies and link interface
libraries to targets created in other directories. The entries are added
to :prop_tgt:`LINK_LIBRARIES` and :prop_tgt:`INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES`
using a special (internal) suffix to tell the generators to look up the
names in the calling scope rather than the scope that created the target.
This policy provides compatibility with projects that already use
:command:`target_link_libraries` with the ``INTERFACE`` keyword
on a target in another directory to add :prop_tgt:`INTERFACE_LINK_LIBRARIES`
entries to be looked up in the target's directory. Such projects should
be updated to be aware of the new scoping rules in that case.
The ``OLD`` behavior of this policy is to disallow
:command:`target_link_libraries` calls naming targets from another directory
except in the previously accidentally allowed case of using the ``INTERFACE``
keyword only. The ``NEW`` behavior of this policy is to allow all such
calls but use the new scoping rules.
This policy was introduced in CMake version 3.13. CMake version
|release| warns when the policy is not set and uses ``OLD`` behavior.

:module:`BundleUtilities` cannot be included at configure time.
The macros provided by :module:`BundleUtilities` are intended to be invoked
at install time rather than at configure time, because they depend on the
listed targets already existing at the time they are invoked. If they are
invoked at configure time, the targets haven't been built yet, and the
commands will fail.
This policy restricts the inclusion of :module:`BundleUtilities` to
``cmake -P`` style scripts and install rules. Specifically, it looks for the
presence of :variable:`CMAKE_GENERATOR` and throws a fatal error if it exists.
The ``OLD`` behavior of this policy is to allow :module:`BundleUtilities` to
be included at configure time. The ``NEW`` behavior of this policy is to
disallow such inclusion.

The initial value of the :prop_tgt:`INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES` target property

Calls to :command:`set_property` or :command:`set_directory_properties`,

List of linker search directories.
This read-only property specifies the list of directories given so far
to the link_directories command. It is intended for debugging
purposes.
This property holds a :ref:`;-list <CMake Language Lists>` of directories
and is typically populated using the :command:`link_directories` command.
It gets its initial value from its parent directory, if it has one.
The directory property is used to initialize the :prop_tgt:`LINK_DIRECTORIES`
target property when a target is created. That target property is used
by the generators to set the library search directories for the linker.
Contents of ``LINK_DIRECTORIES`` may use "generator expressions" with
the syntax ``$<...>``. See the :manual:`cmake-generator-expressions(7)`
manual for available expressions. See the :manual:`cmake-buildsystem(7)`
manual for more on defining buildsystem properties.
