Summary0002513: Specify shared library install_name/rpath
DescriptionAlthough CMAKE_SKIP_RPATH can be used to include the full build path, there is not an automatic mechanism to set a more useful install_name on Mac OS X. As a result, the use of shared libraries is tied to load library paths specified through environment variables. DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH is not recommended for general use on Mac OS X, so it should be possible to build libraries such that they include the correct install_name paths. More useful path options might include:

* Build location (as currently implemented), useful for developers during development prior to installation
* Use CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX and determine the install location for the given library
* User-defined string such as "@executable_path../Frameworks" for embedding within application bundles

I tried implementing something similar to the second option in Modules/Platform/Darwin.cmake, but CMake did not expand the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX variable. If CMake retains the install location for a given library within a variable, that might be used within CMAKE_C_CREATE_SHARED_LIBRARY or CMAKE_CXX_CREATE_SHARED_LIBRARY to set the correct install_name on Mac OS X or rpath on other systems.

 The following changes introduce this feature. See the documentation of the INSTALL_NAME_DIR property in the SET_TARGET_PROPERTIES command. Please try it out and re-open the bug if there are problems.

I'm now closing this bug.
