0010736: Enable CPack generators to produce more than one package
It would be nice if it would be possible to build multiple packages from one cmake project using cpack. Especially for the "simple" generators like ZIP etc. a seperation based on the COMPONENT given in the install command woould be very helpful (and probably easy to implement), but even for "active installers" there might be the need to provide different modules from one source tree.

Is this what you are looking for:

To Bill:
Currently there is only two CPack generators that supports components:
NSIS and PackageMaker.

This is pending for a long time for RPM because:
   - lack of time (as usual)
   - because generic generator was not meant to support
     "several files" generation in the first place
     see there
     http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=9900 [^]

I'll add relationship with those related bugs / features requests

Hi All,

Here comes a patch which provides the necessary changes to
all CPack Generators for supporting the requested features.

The patch contains changes to the Archive Generators which will
produce a set of files for a componentized project.
For example using the example from
http://www.itk.org/Wiki/CMake:Component_Install_With_CPack [^]
using the ZIP generator it produces:

$ cpack -G ZIP
CPack: Create package using ZIP
CPack: Install projects
CPack: - Run preinstall target for: MyLib
CPack: - Install project: MyLib
CPack: - Install component: applications
CPack: - Install component: libraries
CPack: - Install component: headers
CPack: Compress package
CPack: Finalize package
CPack: Created package: MyLib-1.0.0-Linux-applications.zip
CPack: Created package: MyLib-1.0.0-Linux-headers.zip
CPack: Created package: MyLib-1.0.0-Linux-libraries.zip


Waiting for feedback before going on...

Hi all,
first of all many thanks for providing a patch.
I tried it on an small example yesterday and it worked as expected
(I patched against cmake 2.8.2), a larger test will follow as soon as I
find the time.

One minor thing (maybe a different issue?),
I am not quite sure of yet is how to handle the destination
of the packages? Is there already way to produce (or copy) the packages
to a user defined place (we usually put our final deliveries under revision
control, so it would be ideal if the package would be in the "right" place
automatically after each build.)
(0021621)
Eric NOULARD

Updated patch set.

0001 and 0002 contains the change of API for compressFile
0003 contains the updated ArchiveGenerator(s) for handling
     the 1 component == 1 package case.

A next patch should enable the
         1 component group == 1 package case.

Could someone test those patches (at least 0001 and 0002)
on Windows and/or OS X, I won't be able to test on those platforms.

Unless someone has more remarks concerning the change of API
I think 0001 and 0002 may be applied now to next/master.

Adding 0004 patch to patchset.
With 0004 the Archive Generators will produce 1 package file per component group
unless there is no group or CPACK_COMPONENT_IGNORE_COMPONENT_GROUP=1
is specified.

Eric NOULARD

Small note:

The patch series are cumulative.
One must apply 0001 before 0002 etc...
Applying all those patches using git should be as simple as

git apply 000?-CPack-enable-generators-to-produce-more-than-one-pac.patch

hi, Eric:
thanks for your patches,can you post a sixth patch that makes CPackDebGenerator work?
(0021696)
Eric NOULARD   
2010-08-08 14:08   
Hi Harmy,

I will certainly work on a multi-package for DEB and RPM
but there are some overlapping change going on
(related to bug http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=11020 [^])
so I may have to stall this in order to avoid to "double"
the work.

So the short answer is: Yes I will but not now.
You can monitor this bug and you will be kept informed.

Thank you for your interest in this.

Here comes a new set of patches for Archive Generators (ZIP, TGZ, STGZ etc...)
0001-CPackArchiveGenerator-use-cmArchiveWrite-wrapper.patch
0002-CPackArchiveGenerator-add-component-supports.patch

the previous work has been rebased on the redesigned CPack API.

The patches may be applied starting from current master.
you may pull the same content from my github branch:
http://github.com/TheErk/CMake/tree/CPackArchiveGenerator-ComponentSupport [^]

I think this can now go in upstream CMake and I will ask for this.
A usual I'm not able to test on Windows or MacOS so testers are welcomed.

I will send more "user" information on CMake ML.
Basically the patch introduces 3 new variables:

CPACK_COMPONENTS_ALL_GROUPS_IN_ONE_PACKAGE
CPACK_COMPONENTS_ALL_IN_ONE_PACKAGE
CPACK_COMPONENTS_IGNORE_GROUPS

which may set at CPack time in order to chose how
many package files are generated and how the "grouping"
takes place.

The default behavior is to create 1 package for each component group.
