During development, I don't expect INSTALL targets will be used at
all. The main reason I initially wanted this directory structure was
because I was planning to have a configuration file for each
application, and I thought I would name it "configuration".<br>
<br>
However, if all the executables are in the same directory, they can't
all have configuration files with the same name. When I thought of
this problem, it occurred to me this would not be a problem on the
Macintosh, as all the executables are placed in bundles, which are
really just directory structures disguised as a single application
file. I knew the file could simple be embedded into the bundle, and I
thought perhaps I could apply a similar strategy to other platforms.<br>
<br>
My solution now it to just use name of the application for the
configuration file.<br>

point about the PATH needed for DLL's under this directory structure is
something I forgot to take into account when I was contemplating how to
organize things. It would not work out well with what I had in mind.
Given that, I think I will have to consider a different strategy.</blockquote>

Most people just set CMAKE_RUNTIME_OUTPUT_PATH once (usually to "bin")
and INSTALL() targets to a runtime output path (also usually "bin") and
call it a day. Let us know what you come up with though. =)<br>
