Can you give an example of this? We use this for CMake itself and seems to work fine.

I cannot find any reference to them in NSIS.template.in:

grep -e CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_README -e CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_WELCOME ./Modules/NSIS.template.in

return 1

The NSIS generated installer of CMake-2.6.2 display only the license file.

I've just reinstall cmake on my win32 box using http://www.cmake.org/files/v2.6/cmake-2.6.3-RC-8-win32-x86.exe [^] and only the copyright notice appears in the NSIS wizard.

Against the CVS source tree (fresh update today), running:

grep -r -e CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_README -e CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_WELCOME .

give me:

./Modules/CPack.cmake:# CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_README - ReadMe file for the project, which
./Modules/CPack.cmake:# CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_WELCOME - Welcome file for the project, which
./Modules/CPack.cmake:cpack_set_if_not_set(CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_README
./Modules/CPack.cmake:cpack_set_if_not_set(CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_WELCOME
./Modules/CPack.cmake:cpack_check_file_exists("${CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_README}" "readme resource")
./Modules/CPack.cmake:cpack_check_file_exists("${CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_WELCOME}" "welcome resource")
./Modules/CPack.distribution.dist.in: <welcome file="@CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_WELCOME_NOPATH@"/>
./Modules/CPack.distribution.dist.in: <readme file="@CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_README_NOPATH@"/>

So it seems they are used only by package maker generator.

I guess the problem here, Bill, is one of documentation rather than on features. It's not clear from CPack's documentation which will be used.
