[CMake] Trouble with Variable in installation

[Pierre-Julien Villoud]

Hi Denis and thank you for your answer

The problem with this solution is that I want the variable to be set when I call make install and not cmake. I tried to add a target which do the cmake and define the variable like that : 

add_custom_target(MyInstall COMMAND "cmake -DLANG=%LANG%")
add_dependencies(install MyInstall)

but I can't add the dependency between the two targets.

It's the same problem as above, the variable is set at cmake call, not at make call.

I will look forward into this since I don't know how it works.

Thanks !

You may try to do something of the following 

either: "Use COMPONENT option from INSTALL command"
