[Paraview] Packaging branded apps on Windows

[Eric E. Monson]

Hello,

I've recently been forced... no, no, encouraged to try to build and package my branded PV app under Windows 7 64-bit, and I'm not experienced with building in a Windows environment. (I'm using Visual Studio 2008 Pro.) I think I have CVS ParaView built just fine.

But, when I run CMake on my branded project it has trouble with one of the CPack portions, so I get:

CMake Error at C:/Users/emonson/Programming/ParaView_cvs/ParaView3/CMake/ParaViewBrandingCPack.cmake:124 (INSTALL):
  install FILES given no DESTINATION!
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  MSI_Strip3/CMakeLists.txt:110 (install_qt_libs)

It seems to not have PV_INSTALL_BIN_DIR set... I'm sorry for my continued CMake ignorance, but should that variable have carried over from my ParaView build somehow, or should I be setting it explicitly in my CMakeLists.txt file for the project?

I tried changing it to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX just to get past the error, but then the Qt libs don't get packaged properly.

Thanks for the help,
-Eric
