Summary

0005862: allow make install/uninstall in a project with sub-projects

Description

See attached example: Let's say we have 2 projects (see src/foo/CMakeLists.txt and src/bar/CMakeLists.txt), that are made parts of top-level project (see src/CMakeLists.txt). Futher, I've added support for "make uninstall" target to each of these 3 projects following suggestions from CMake FAQ (Q: Can I do "make uninstall" with CMake?). However, it's still not possible to build top-level project, and accomplish "make install" from there, and then go to say "foo" sub-project build directory and issue "make uninstall" there in order to un-install only files specified to be installed by "foo" project.

So, the idea could be to have CMake to create a makefile that would in turn build "install_manifest.txt" files in each sub-project directory during "make install" step in top-level directory, and then to utilize this later during "make uninstall" step.

(0030505) Brad King (manager) 2012-08-13 10:36	Sending issues I'm not actively working on to the backlog to await someone with time for them. If an issue you care about is sent to the backlog when you feel it should have been addressed in a different manner, please bring it up on the CMake mailing list for discussion. Sign up for the mailing list here, if you're not already on it: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake [^] It's easy to re-activate a bug here if you can find a CMake developer or contributor who has the bandwidth to take it on.
