Summary0016108: get_prerequisites failed to locate installed Microsoft Visual Studio if installed into not default location
Descriptionget_prerequisites could not find dumpbin.exe and has tried to use unexisted objdump.exe

Reason: get_prerequisites (share/cmake-3.5/Modules/GetPrerequisites.cmake) does search Microsoft Visual Studio incorrectly
Steps To Reproduce1. make sure that all versions of Microsoft Visual Studio has installed into not default locations

2. run cpack after cmake in the cmake build directory:
>cmake .
>cmake --build . --config release
>cpack -V --config CPackConfig.cmake .

3. observe messages "CPack Verbose: warning: could not find 'objdump' - cannot analyze prerequisites..."
Additional InformationTo fix it replace this in the "share/cmake-3.5/Modules/GetPrerequisites.cmake" file:
  set(gp_cmd_paths ${gp_cmd_paths}
    "C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0/VC/bin"
    "C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0/VC/bin"
    "C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio 8/VC/BIN"
    "C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 8/VC/BIN"
    "C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003/VC7/BIN"
    "C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003/VC7/BIN"
    "/usr/local/bin"
    "/usr/bin"
    )

To something like this:
  set(gp_cmd_paths ${gp_cmd_paths}
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\VisualStudio\\14.0;InstallDir]/../../VC/bin
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\Microsoft\\VisualStudio\\12.0;InstallDir]/../../VC/bin

I believe this was fixed recently:

GetPrerequisites: add path of VS 10,11,12,14 in order to find dumpbin.exe
https://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=commitdiff;h=c79f88b0 [^]

GetPrerequisites: Look for VS tools using environment variables
https://cmake.org/gitweb?p=cmake.git;a=commitdiff;h=a1c40291 [^]

I've now also added the registry entries:

Thanks!

You better extract that code into standalone function, because correct search of the Microsoft Visual Studio installation is a common issue.
