Use the install(FILES ) command instead. + +This command has been superceded by the install command. It is +provided for compatibility with older CMake code. The FILES form is +directly replaced by the FILES form of the install command. The +regexp form can be expressed more clearly using the GLOB form of the +file command. + +:: + + install_files(<dir> extension file file ...) + +Create rules to install the listed files with the given extension into +the given directory. Only files existing in the current source tree +or its corresponding location in the binary tree may be listed. If a +file specified already has an extension, that extension will be +removed first. This is useful for providing lists of source files +such as foo.cxx when you want the corresponding foo.h to be installed. +A typical extension is '.h'. + +:: + + install_files(<dir> regexp) + +Any files in the current source directory that match the regular +expression will be installed. + +:: + + install_files(<dir> FILES file file ...) + +Any files listed after the FILES keyword will be installed explicitly +from the names given. Full paths are allowed in this form. + +The directory <dir> is relative to the installation prefix, which is +stored in the variable CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX. |
