.SS Variables specific to CPack Debian (DEB) generator
.sp
The CPack DEB generator may be used to create DEB package using \fI\%CPack\fP\&.
The CPack DEB generator is a \fI\%CPack\fP generator thus it uses the
\fBCPACK_XXX\fP variables used by \fI\%CPack\fP\&.
.sp
The CPack DEB generator should work on any Linux host but it will produce
better deb package when Debian specific tools \fBdpkg\-xxx\fP are usable on
the build system.
.sp
The CPack DEB generator has specific features which are controlled by the
specifics \fBCPACK_DEBIAN_XXX\fP variables.
.sp
\fBCPACK_DEBIAN_<COMPONENT>_XXXX\fP variables may be used in order to have
\fBcomponent\fP specific values.  Note however that \fB<COMPONENT>\fP refers to
the \fBgrouping name\fP written in upper case. It may be either a component name

.SS CPack External Generator
.sp
New in version 3.13.

.sp
CPack provides many generators to create packages for a variety of platforms
and packaging systems. The intention is for CMake/CPack to be a complete
end\-to\-end solution for building and packaging a software project. However, it
may not always be possible to use CPack for the entire packaging process, due
to either technical limitations or policies that require the use of certain
tools. For this reason, CPack provides the \(dqExternal\(dq generator, which allows
external packaging software to take advantage of some of the functionality
provided by CPack, such as component installation and the dependency graph.
.SS Integration with External Packaging Tools
.sp
The CPack External generator generates a \fB\&.json\fP file containing the
CPack internal metadata, which gives external software information
on how to package the software. External packaging software may itself
invoke CPack, consume the generated metadata,
install and package files as required.
.sp
Alternatively CPack can invoke an external packaging software
through an optional custom CMake script in
\fI\%CPACK_EXTERNAL_PACKAGE_SCRIPT\fP instead.
.sp
Staging of installation files may also optionally be
taken care of by the generator when enabled through the
\fI\%CPACK_EXTERNAL_ENABLE_STAGING\fP variable.
.SS JSON Format
.sp
The JSON metadata file contains a list of CPack components and component groups,
the various options passed to \fI\%cpack_add_component()\fP and
\fI\%cpack_add_component_group()\fP, the dependencies between the components
and component groups, and various other options passed to CPack.
.sp
The JSON\(aqs root object will always provide two fields:
\fBformatVersionMajor\fP and \fBformatVersionMinor\fP, which are always integers
that describe the output format of the generator. Backwards\-compatible changes
to the output format (for example, adding a new field that didn\(aqt exist before)
cause the minor version to be incremented, and backwards\-incompatible changes
(for example, deleting a field or changing its meaning) cause the major version
to be incremented and the minor version reset to 0. The format version is
always of the format \fBmajor.minor\fP\&. In other words, it always has exactly two
parts, separated by a period.
.sp
You can request one or more specific versions of the output format as described
below with \fI\%CPACK_EXTERNAL_REQUESTED_VERSIONS\fP\&. The output format will
have a major version that exactly matches the requested major version, and a
minor version that is greater than or equal to the requested minor version. If
no version is requested with \fI\%CPACK_EXTERNAL_REQUESTED_VERSIONS\fP, the
latest known major version is used by default. Currently, the only supported
format is 1.0, which is described below.
.SS Version 1.0
.sp
In addition to the standard format fields, format version 1.0 provides the
following fields in the root:
.INDENT 0.0

The \fBcomponents\fP field is an object with component names as the keys and

.SS Variables specific to CPack External generator
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B CPACK_EXTERNAL_REQUESTED_VERSIONS
This variable is used to request a specific version of the CPack External
generator. It is a list of \fBmajor.minor\fP values, separated by semicolons.
.sp
If this variable is set to a non\-empty value, the CPack External generator
will iterate through each item in the list to search for a version that it
knows how to generate. Requested versions should be listed in order of
descending preference by the client software, as the first matching version
in the list will be generated.
.sp
The generator knows how to generate the version if it has a versioned
generator whose major version exactly matches the requested major version,
and whose minor version is greater than or equal to the requested minor
version. For example, if \fBCPACK_EXTERNAL_REQUESTED_VERSIONS\fP contains 1.0, and
the CPack External generator knows how to generate 1.1, it will generate 1.1.
If the generator doesn\(aqt know how to generate a version in the list, it skips
the version and looks at the next one. If it doesn\(aqt know how to generate any
of the requested versions, an error is thrown.
.sp
If this variable is not set, or is empty, the CPack External generator will
generate the highest major and minor version that it knows how to generate.
.sp
If an invalid version is encountered in \fBCPACK_EXTERNAL_REQUESTED_VERSIONS\fP (one
that doesn\(aqt match \fBmajor.minor\fP, where \fBmajor\fP and \fBminor\fP are
integers), it is ignored.

task is contained in \fBCPACK_TOPLEVEL_DIRECTORY\fP\&.
It is automatically cleaned up on each run before packaging is initiated

.SS Variables specific to CPack FreeBSD (pkg) generator
.sp
The CPack FreeBSD generator may be used to create pkg(8) packages \-\- these may
be used on FreeBSD, DragonflyBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, but also on Linux or OSX,
depending on the installed package\-management tools \-\- using \fI\%CPack\fP\&.
.sp
The CPack FreeBSD generator is a \fI\%CPack\fP generator and uses the
\fBCPACK_XXX\fP variables used by \fI\%CPack\fP\&. It tries to reuse packaging
information that may already be specified for Debian packages for the
\fI\%CPack DEB Generator\fP\&. It also tries to reuse RPM packaging
information when Debian does not specify.
.sp
The CPack FreeBSD generator should work on any host with libpkg installed. The
packages it produces are specific to the host architecture and ABI.
.sp
The CPack FreeBSD generator sets package\-metadata through
\fBCPACK_FREEBSD_XXX\fP variables. The CPack FreeBSD generator, unlike the
CPack Deb generator, does not specially support componentized packages; a
single package is created from all the software artifacts created through
CMake.
.sp
All of the variables can be set specifically for FreeBSD packaging in
the CPackConfig file or in CMakeLists.txt, but most of them have defaults
that use general settings (e.g. \fI\%CMAKE_PROJECT_NAME\fP) or Debian\-specific
variables when those make sense (e.g. the homepage of an upstream project
is usually unchanged by the flavor of packaging). When there is no Debian
information to fall back on, but the RPM packaging has it, fall back to
the RPM information (e.g. package license).

.SS CPack Inno Setup Generator
.sp
New in version 3.27.

.sp
Inno Setup is a free installer for Windows programs by Jordan Russell and
Martijn Laan (\fI\%https://jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php\fP).
.sp
This documentation explains Inno Setup generator specific options.
.sp
The generator provides a lot of options like components. Unfortunately, not
all features (e.g. component dependencies) are currently supported by
Inno Setup and they\(aqre ignored by the generator for now.
.sp
CPack requires Inno Setup 6 or greater and only works on Windows.
.SS Variables specific to CPack Inno Setup generator
.sp
You can use the following variables to change the behavior of the CPack
\fBINNOSETUP\fP generator:
.SS General
.sp
None of the following variables is required to be set for the Inno Setup
generator to work. If a variable is marked as mandatory below but not set,
its default value is taken.
.sp
The variables can also contain Inno Setup constants like \fB{app}\fP\&. Please
refer to the documentation of Inno Setup for more information.
.sp
If you\(aqre asked to provide the path to any file, you can always give an
absolute path or in most cases the relative path from the top\-level directory
where all files being installed by an \fI\%install()\fP instruction reside.
.sp
CPack tries to escape quotes and other special characters for you. However,
using special characters could cause problems.
.sp
The following variable simplifies the usage of Inno Setup in CMake:
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B CPACK_INNOSETUP_USE_CMAKE_BOOL_FORMAT
Inno Setup only uses \fByes\fP or \fBno\fP as boolean formats meanwhile CMake
uses a lot of alternative formats like \fBON\fP or \fBOFF\fP\&. Having this option
turned on enables an automatic conversion.
.sp
Consider the following example:

Before using executables (only \fB\&.exe\fP or \fB\&.com\fP) in shortcuts
(e.g. \fI\%CPACK_CREATE_DESKTOP_LINKS\fP) or \fB[Run]\fP entries, you\(aqve to
add the raw file name (without path and extension) to
\fI\%CPACK_PACKAGE_EXECUTABLES\fP and create a start menu shortcut
for them.
.sp
If you have two files with the same raw name (e.g. \fBa/executable.exe\fP and
\fBb/executable.com\fP), an entry in the section is created twice. This will
result in undefined behavior and is not recommended.
.INDENT 0.0

.B CPACK_INNOSETUP_CUSTOM_INSTALL_INSTRUCTIONS
This variable should contain a
\fI\%semicolon\-separated list\fP of pairs \fBpath\fP,

automatically created for each file or directory.
.sp
CPack creates the following Inno Setup instruction for every file...
.INDENT 7.0
.INDENT 3.5
.sp
.nf

.INDENT 3.5
.sp
.nf
.ft C
Name: \(dq{app}\emy_folder\(dq
.ft P
.fi
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
You might want to change the destination directory or the flags of
\fBmy_file.txt\fP\&. Since we can also provide a relative path, the line you\(aqd
like to have, is the following:
.INDENT 7.0
.INDENT 3.5

.ft C
Source: \(dqmy_file.txt\(dq; DestDir: \(dq{userdocs}\(dq; Flags: ignoreversion uninsneveruninstall
.ft P
.fi
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
You would do this by using \fBmy_file.txt\fP as \fBpath\fP and
\fBSource: \(dqmy_file.txt\(dq; DestDir: \(dq{userdocs}\(dq; Flags: ignoreversion uninsneveruninstall\fP
as \fBinstruction\fP\&.
.sp
You\(aqve to take care of the \fI\%escaping problem\fP\&.
So the CMake command would be:
.INDENT 7.0
.INDENT 3.5
.sp

.ft P
.fi
.UNINDENT

To improve readability, you should go around the escaping problem by using
\fI\%CPACK_VERBATIM_VARIABLES\fP or by placing the instruction into a
separate CPack project config file.
.sp
If you customize the install instruction of a specific file, you lose the
connection to its component. To go around, manually add
\fBComponents: <component>\fP\&. You also need to add its shortcuts and \fB[Run]\fP
entries by yourself in a custom section, since the executable won\(aqt be found
anymore by \fI\%CPACK_PACKAGE_EXECUTABLES\fP\&.

.SS Overview
.sp
This \fI\%cpack generator\fP generates
configuration and meta information for the \fI\%Qt Installer Framework\fP (QtIFW),
and runs QtIFW tools to generate a Qt installer.
.sp
QtIFW provides tools and utilities to create installers for
the platforms supported by \fI\%Qt\fP: Linux,
Microsoft Windows, and macOS.
.sp
To make use of this generator, QtIFW needs to be installed.
The \fI\%CPackIFW\fP module looks for the location of the
QtIFW command\-line utilities, and defines several commands to
control the behavior of this generator. See \fI\%Hints for Finding QtIFW\fP\&.

.SS Online installer
.sp
By default, this generator generates an \fIoffline installer\fP\&. This means
that all packaged files are fully contained in the installer executable.
.sp
In contrast, an \fIonline installer\fP will download some or all components from
a remote server.
.sp
The \fBDOWNLOADED\fP option in the \fI\%cpack_add_component()\fP command
specifies that a component is to be downloaded. Alternatively, the \fBALL\fP
option in the \fI\%cpack_configure_downloads()\fP command specifies that
\fIall\fP components are to be be downloaded.
.sp
The \fI\%cpack_ifw_add_repository()\fP command and the
\fI\%CPACK_IFW_DOWNLOAD_ALL\fP variable allow for more specific
configuration.
.sp
When there are online components, CPack will write them to archive files.
The help page of the \fI\%CPackComponent\fP module, especially the section
on the \fI\%cpack_configure_downloads()\fP function, explains how to make
these files accessible from a download URL.
.SS Internationalization
.sp
New in version 3.9.

.sp
Some variables and command arguments support internationalization via
CMake script. This is an optional feature.

Installers created by QtIFW tools have built\-in support for
internationalization and many phrases are localized to many languages,
but this does not apply to the description of your components and groups.

Localization of the description of your components and groups is useful for
users of your installers.

A localized variable or argument can contain a single default value, and
after that a set of pairs with the name of the locale and the localized value.

.SS Distribution XML Template
.sp
CPack uses a template file to generate the \fBdistribution.dist\fP file used
internally by this package generator. Ordinarily, CMake provides the template
file, but projects may supply their own by placing a file called
\fBCPack.distribution.dist.in\fP in one of the directories listed in the
\fI\%CMAKE_MODULE_PATH\fP variable. CPack will then pick up the project\(aqs
template file instead of using its own.
.sp
The \fBdistribution.dist\fP file is generated by performing substitutions
similar to the \fI\%configure_file()\fP command. Any variable set when
CPack runs will be available for substitution using the usual \fB@...@\fP
form. The following variables are also set internally and made available for
substitution:
.INDENT 0.0

.SS CPack RPM Generator
.sp
The built in (binary) CPack RPM generator (Unix only)
.SS Variables specific to CPack RPM generator
.sp
The CPack RPM generator may be used to create RPM packages using \fI\%CPack\fP\&.
The CPack RPM generator is a \fI\%CPack\fP generator thus it uses the
\fBCPACK_XXX\fP variables used by \fI\%CPack\fP\&.
.sp
The CPack RPM generator has specific features which are controlled by the specifics
\fBCPACK_RPM_XXX\fP variables.
.sp
\fBCPACK_RPM_<COMPONENT>_XXXX\fP variables may be used in order to have
\fBcomponent\-specific\fP values.  Note however that \fB<COMPONENT>\fP refers to the
\fBgrouping name\fP written in upper case. It may be either a component name or
a component GROUP name. Usually, those variables correspond to RPM spec file
entities. One may find information about spec files here
\fI\%https://rpm.org/documentation\fP\&.
.sp
Changed in version 3.6: \fI<COMPONENT>\fP part of variables is preferred to be in upper case (e.g. if
component is named \fBfoo\fP then use \fBCPACK_RPM_FOO_XXXX\fP variable
name format) as is with other \fBCPACK_<COMPONENT>_XXXX\fP variables.
For the purposes of back compatibility (CMake/CPack version 3.5 and lower)
support for same cased component (e.g. \fBfOo\fP would be used as
\fBCPACK_RPM_fOo_XXXX\fP) is still supported for variables defined in
older versions of CMake/CPack but is not guaranteed for variables that
will be added in the future. For the sake of back compatibility same cased
component variables also override upper cased versions where both are
present.

Symbolic links will be optimized (paths will be shortened if possible)
before being added to the package or if multiple relocation paths are
detected, a post install symlink relocation script will be generated.

Symbolic links may point to locations that are not packaged by the same
package (either a different component or even not packaged at all) but
those locations will be treated as if they were a part of the package
while determining if symlink should be either created or present in a
post install script \- depending on relocation paths.
.sp
Changed in version 3.6: Symbolic links that point to locations outside packaging path produce a
warning and are treated as non relocatable permanent symbolic links.
Previous versions of CMake produced an error in this case.

.sp
Currently there are a few limitations though:
.INDENT 0.0
.IP \(bu 2
For component based packaging component interdependency is not checked
when processing symbolic links. Symbolic links pointing to content of
a different component are treated the same way as if pointing to location
that will not be packaged.
.IP \(bu 2
Symbolic links pointing to a location through one or more intermediate
symbolic links will not be handled differently \- if the intermediate
symbolic link(s) is also on a relocatable path, relocating it during
package installation may cause initial symbolic link to point to an
invalid location.

what content the package(s) should have as well as how they should be packaged

.SS Variables specific to CPack WIX generator
.sp
The following variables are specific to the installers built on
Windows using WiX.
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B CPACK_WIX_UPGRADE_GUID
Upgrade GUID (\fBProduct/@UpgradeCode\fP)
.sp
Will be automatically generated unless explicitly provided.
.sp
It should be explicitly set to a constant generated globally unique
identifier (GUID) to allow your installers to replace existing
installations that use the same GUID.
.sp
You may for example explicitly set this variable in your
CMakeLists.txt to the value that has been generated per default.  You
should not use GUIDs that you did not generate yourself or which may
belong to other projects.
.sp
A GUID shall have the following fixed length syntax:
.INDENT 7.0
.INDENT 3.5
.sp
.nf
.ft C
XXXXXXXX\-XXXX\-XXXX\-XXXX\-XXXXXXXXXXXX
.ft P
.fi

.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B CPACK_WIX_PRODUCT_GUID
Product GUID (\fBProduct/@Id\fP)
.sp
Will be automatically generated unless explicitly provided.
.sp
If explicitly provided this will set the Product Id of your installer.
.sp
The installer will abort if it detects a pre\-existing installation that
uses the same GUID.
.sp
The GUID shall use the syntax described for CPACK_WIX_UPGRADE_GUID.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B CPACK_WIX_LICENSE_RTF
RTF License File
.sp
If CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_LICENSE has an .rtf extension it is used as\-is.
.sp
If CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_LICENSE has an .txt extension it is implicitly
converted to RTF by the WIX Generator.
The expected encoding of the .txt file is UTF\-8.
.sp
With CPACK_WIX_LICENSE_RTF you can override the license file used by the
WIX Generator in case CPACK_RESOURCE_FILE_LICENSE is in an unsupported
format or the .txt \-> .rtf conversion does not work as expected.
.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B CPACK_WIX_PRODUCT_ICON

created directly in the start menu and the uninstaller shortcut will be
omitted.

.UNINDENT
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B CPACK_WIX_CULTURES
Language(s) of the installer
.sp
Languages are compiled into the WixUI extension library.  To use them,
simply provide the name of the culture.  If you specify more than one
culture identifier in a comma or semicolon delimited list, the first one
that is found will be used.  You can find a list of supported languages at:

.B CPACK_WIX_TEMPLATE
Template file for WiX generation
.sp
If this variable is set, the specified template will be used to generate
the WiX wxs file.  This should be used if further customization of the
output is required. The template contents will override the effect of most
\fBCPACK_WIX_\fP variables.
.sp
If this variable is not set, the default MSI template included with CMake
will be used.

.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B CPACK_WIX_PATCH_FILE
Optional list of XML files with fragments to be inserted into
generated WiX sources.
.sp
New in version 3.5: Support listing multiple patch files.

.sp
This optional variable can be used to specify an XML file that the
WIX generator will use to inject fragments into its generated
source files.
.sp
Patch files understood by the CPack WIX generator
roughly follow this RELAX NG compact schema:
.INDENT 7.0
.INDENT 3.5
.sp
.nf
.ft C
start = CPackWiXPatch

CPackWiXPatch = element CPackWiXPatch { CPackWiXFragment* }

CPackWiXFragment = element CPackWiXFragment
{
    attribute Id { string },
    fragmentContent*
}

fragmentContent = element * \- CPackWiXFragment
{
    (attribute * { text } | text | fragmentContent)*
}
.ft P
.fi
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
Currently fragments can be injected into most
Component, File, Directory and Feature elements.
.sp
New in version 3.3: The following additional special Ids can be used:
.INDENT 7.0
.IP \(bu 2
\fB#PRODUCT\fP for the \fB<Product>\fP element.

.UNINDENT

.sp
New in version 3.7: Support patching arbitrary \fB<Feature>\fP elements.

.sp
New in version 3.9: Allow setting additional attributes.

.sp
The following example illustrates how this works.

Given that the WIX generator creates the following XML element:
.INDENT 7.0
.INDENT 3.5
.sp
.nf
.ft C
<Component Id=\(dqCM_CP_applications.bin.my_libapp.exe\(dq Guid=\(dq*\(dq/>
