| Summary | 0010591: For NSIS, CPack erroneously enforces a ..\bin\ folder |
| Description | On Windows it is customary to have executables installed as:
C:\Program Files\Company\Product\Executable.exe
But CPack enforces the non-customary:
C:\Program Files\Company\Product\bin\Executable.exe
The appending of a bin folder is hardcoded in cmCPackNSISGenerator.cxx (454). Of course it is possible to override the generation of the CPACK_NSIS_CREATE_ICONS variable, but it is not... "clean" :) It should instead be an option via CPACK_PACKAGE_EXECUTABLES in CMakeLists.txt:
SET(CPACK_PACKAGE_EXECUTABLES "bin\\Executable" "The Executable")
