[CMake] Running OSX Bundle via open after creation with CMake/CPack

[Juan Carlos Prieto]

Dear all,

I have generated a bundle for MacOS as follows:

if(APPLE)
    set(OS_BUNDLE MACOSX_BUNDLE)
  elseif(WIN32)
    set(OS_BUNDLE WIN32)
  endif()

  include_directories(${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR})
  add_executable(FADTTSter ${OS_BUNDLE}
    ${FADTTS_src}
  )
  target_link_libraries(FADTTSter ${QT_LIBRARIES} ${VTK_LIBRARIES})

#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # Install the QtTest application, on Apple, the bundle is at the root of
the
  # install tree, and on other platforms it'll go into the bin directory.
  INSTALL(TARGETS FADTTSter
    DESTINATION . COMPONENT Runtime
    RUNTIME DESTINATION bin COMPONENT Runtime
  )

  macro(install_qt5_plugin _qt_plugin_name _qt_plugins_var)
    get_target_property(_qt_plugin_path "${_qt_plugin_name}" LOCATION)
    if(EXISTS "${_qt_plugin_path}")
      get_filename_component(_qt_plugin_file "${_qt_plugin_path}" NAME)
      get_filename_component(_qt_plugin_type "${_qt_plugin_path}" PATH)
      get_filename_component(_qt_plugin_type "${_qt_plugin_type}" NAME)
      set(_qt_plugin_dest
"${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/FADTTSter.app/Contents/PlugIns/${_qt_plugin_type}")
      install(FILES "${_qt_plugin_path}"
        DESTINATION "${_qt_plugin_dest}"
        COMPONENT Runtime)
      set(${_qt_plugins_var}
        "${${_qt_plugins_var}};${_qt_plugin_dest}/${_qt_plugin_file}")
    else()
      message(FATAL_ERROR "QT plugin ${_qt_plugin_name} not found")
    endif()
  endmacro()
  install_qt5_plugin("Qt5::QCocoaIntegrationPlugin" QT_PLUGINS)


#--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  # install a qt.conf file
  # this inserts some cmake code into the install script to write the file
  INSTALL(CODE "
      file(WRITE \"\${CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX}/${qtconf_dest_dir}/qt.conf\"
\"[Paths]\nPlugins = PlugIns\n\")
      " COMPONENT Runtime)


  install(CODE "
    include(BundleUtilities)
    fixup_bundle(\"${APPS}\" \"${QT_PLUGINS};\"
\"${QT_LIBRARY_DIR};${QT_BINARY_DIR};\")
   "
    COMPONENT Runtime)

The bundle will not run if executed through finder or in command line as
$ open FADTTSter.app.

LSOpenURLsWithRole() failed with error -10810 for the file
/path/to/FADTTSter.app


However, if the executable inside FADTTSter.app/Contents/MacOS/FADTTSter is
executed, the application works fine.

Does any body knows how to solve this issue?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
