[CMake] Recommended style for multiple CPack generator folder structures

[Harry Mallon]

In answer to my own question. One way to do it which seems quite neat is as follows. Using multiple installs:

install(TARGETS bar
    COMPONENT bar
    DESTINATION "Applications/Foo"
)

install(TARGETS bar
    COMPONENT bar-standalone
    DESTINATION "./" # This must be "./" not "/" as it has to be a relative path
)

This in your CPACK_PROJECT_CONFIG_FILE:

if (CPACK_GENERATOR STREQUAL DragNDrop)
    set(CPACK_COMPONENTS_ALL bar-standalone)
endif()
