Help: Add new section for CPack generators
The documentation for CPack generators previously lived in their respective internal CMake modules. This setup was misleading, because it implied that you should include the modules in your own code, which is not the case. Moving the documentation into a separate section does a better job of hiding the internal modules, which are just an implementation detail. The generator documentation has also been modified to remove any references to the module name. The CPackIFW module is a special exception: since it has user-facing macros, the documentation for these macros has been kept in the module page, while all other documentation related to the IFW generator has been moved into the new section. To make it easier to find the new documentation, the old help pages for the CPack*.cmake modules have not been deleted, but have been replaced with a link to their respective help page in the new documentation section.

@@ -13,298 +15,8 @@ with the Qt Installer Framework (QtIFW_).
The module also defines several commands to control the behavior of the
CPack ``IFW`` generator.
-
-Overview
-^^^^^^^^
-
-CPack ``IFW`` generator helps you to create online and offline
-binary cross-platform installers with a graphical user interface.
-
-CPack IFW generator prepares project installation and generates configuration
-and meta information for QtIFW_ tools.
-
-The QtIFW_ provides a set of tools and utilities to create
-installers for the supported desktop Qt platforms: Linux, Microsoft Windows,
-and Mac OS X.
-
-You should also install QtIFW_ to use CPack ``IFW`` generator.
-
-Hints
-^^^^^
-
-Generally, the CPack ``IFW`` generator automatically finds QtIFW_ tools,
-but if you don't use a default path for installation of the QtIFW_ tools,
-the path may be specified in either a CMake or an environment variable:
-
-.. variable:: CPACK_IFW_ROOT
-
- An CMake variable which specifies the location of the QtIFW_ tool suite.
-
- The variable will be cached in the ``CPackConfig.cmake`` file and used at
- CPack runtime.
-
-.. variable:: QTIFWDIR
-
- An environment variable which specifies the location of the QtIFW_ tool
- suite.
-
-.. note::
- The specified path should not contain "bin" at the end
- (for example: "D:\\DevTools\\QtIFW2.0.5").
-
-The :variable:`CPACK_IFW_ROOT` variable has a higher priority and overrides
-the value of the :variable:`QTIFWDIR` variable.
-
-Internationalization
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-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 the your components and groups
-that will be distributed.
-
-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 a
-set of pairs the name of the locale and the localized value.
-
-For example:
-
-.. code-block:: cmake
-
- set(LOCALIZABLE_VARIABLE "Default value"
- en "English value"
- en_US "American value"
- en_GB "Great Britain value"
- )
-

-generator.

-Online installer
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-By default CPack IFW generator makes offline installer. This means that all
-components will be packaged into a binary file.
-
-To make a component downloaded, you must set the ``DOWNLOADED`` option in
-:command:`cpack_add_component`.
-
-Then you would use the command :command:`cpack_configure_downloads`.
-If you set ``ALL`` option all components will be downloaded.
-
-You also can use command :command:`cpack_ifw_add_repository` and
-variable :variable:`CPACK_IFW_DOWNLOAD_ALL` for more specific configuration.
-
-CPack IFW generator creates "repository" dir in current binary dir. You
-would copy content of this dir to specified ``site`` (``url``).
