[CMake] Fwd: How to get the list of files that will be installed when installing a CMake component

[Daniel Schepler]

What about checking install_manifest.txt after running the cmake command?

Or, if you have multiple components to package in this way, possibly you could use a different CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX for each component.  Then, either have the installer generator use those directories for packing the installer components, or use some scripting to combine the component installations into a final image directory for the installer generator to read from.

Hi ,

Is there any way to know programmatically ( in cmake ) what files will be installed if a COMPONENT is installed ( something like a get_property of component)?

Currently I am installing a COMPONENT to a temporary location for packaging ( not using CPack for packaging ) and then packaging using custom commands. Invoking the following command during packaing in Cmake.

cmake -DCOMPONENT=my_test_component

-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=${TMP_PACKAGING_ROOT}

-P ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/cmake_install.cmake

I wanted to know if it is possible to get the list of files so that I can only include those files explicitly in the package ? or possibly add them as outputs to the custom command ?



( I tried asking in StackOverflow but no success )
