This page documents a prototype design Alex and Brad created for exporting project information from a CMake project for use by outside projects.
This page has moved [https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/community/wikis/doc/cmake/ExportInterface here].
 
Here is an example for exporing a simple project from the build tree and install tree:
 
<pre>
EXPORT( # anonymous export must be fully specified here
  FILE myproj-build.cmake
  PREFIX myproj-1.2
  TARGETS mylibA mylibB mygen
  )
INSTALL(
  TARGETS mylibA mylibB mygen
  EXPORT  myproj-install
  RUNTIME DESTINATION bin
  ARCHIVE DESTINATION lib
  LIBRARY DESTINATION lib
  )
INSTALL(
  EXPORT myproj-install
  DESTINATION lib/myproj-1.2
  FILE myproj-install.cmake
  PREFIX myproj-1.2
  )
</pre>
 
A more complicated project may be organized this way:
 
<pre>
# CMakeLists.txt
EXPORT(myproj-build # named export allows more rules later
  FILE myproj-build.cmake
  PREFIX myproj-1.2
  )
INSTALL(
  EXPORT myproj-install
  DESTINATION lib/myproj-1.2
  FILE myproj-install.cmake
  PREFIX myproj-1.2
  )
 
# lib/CMakeLists.txt
EXPORT(myproj-build
  TARGETS mylibA mylibB
  )
INSTALL(TARGETS mylibA mylibB
  EXPORT myproj-install
  RUNTIME DESTINATION bin
  ARCHIVE DESTINATION lib
  LIBRARY DESTINATION lib
  )
 
# exe/CMakeLists.txt
EXPORT(myproj-build
  TARGETS mygen
  )
INSTALL(TARGETS mygen
  EXPORT myproj-install
  DESTINATION bin
  )
</pre>
