CPackIFW

This module looks for the location of the command-line utilities supplied with the Qt Installer Framework (QtIFW).

The module also defines several commands to control the behavior of the CPack IFW Generator.

Commands

The module defines the following commands:

cpack_ifw_configure_component

Sets the arguments specific to the CPack IFW generator.

cpack_ifw_configure_component(<compname> [COMMON] [ESSENTIAL] [VIRTUAL]
                    [FORCED_INSTALLATION] [REQUIRES_ADMIN_RIGHTS]
                    [NAME <name>]
                    [DISPLAY_NAME <display_name>] # Note: Internationalization supported
                    [DESCRIPTION <description>] # Note: Internationalization supported
                    [UPDATE_TEXT <update_text>]
                    [VERSION <version>]
                    [RELEASE_DATE <release_date>]
                    [SCRIPT <script>]
                    [PRIORITY|SORTING_PRIORITY <sorting_priority>] # Note: PRIORITY is deprecated
                    [DEPENDS|DEPENDENCIES <com_id> ...]
                    [AUTO_DEPEND_ON <comp_id> ...]
                    [LICENSES <display_name> <file_path> ...]
                    [DEFAULT <value>]
                    [USER_INTERFACES <file_path> <file_path> ...]
                    [TRANSLATIONS <file_path> <file_path> ...]
                    [REPLACES <comp_id> ...]
                    [CHECKABLE <value>])

This command should be called after cpack_add_component() command.

COMMON

if set, then the component will be packaged and installed as part of a group to which it belongs.

ESSENTIAL

if set, then the package manager stays disabled until that component is updated.

VIRTUAL

if set, then the component will be hidden from the installer. It is a equivalent of the HIDDEN option from the cpack_add_component() command.

FORCED_INSTALLATION

if set, then the component must always be installed. It is a equivalent of the REQUIRED option from the cpack_add_component() command.

REQUIRES_ADMIN_RIGHTS

set it if the component needs to be installed with elevated permissions.

NAME

is used to create domain-like identification for this component. By default used origin component name.

DISPLAY_NAME

set to rewrite original name configured by cpack_add_component() command.

DESCRIPTION

set to rewrite original description configured by cpack_add_component() command.

UPDATE_TEXT

will be added to the component description if this is an update to the component.

VERSION

is version of component. By default used CPACK_PACKAGE_VERSION.

RELEASE_DATE

keep empty to auto generate.

SCRIPT

is a relative or absolute path to operations script for this component.

PRIORITY | SORTING_PRIORITY

is priority of the component in the tree. The PRIORITY option is deprecated and will be removed in a future version of CMake. Please use SORTING_PRIORITY option instead.

DEPENDS | DEPENDENCIES

list of dependency component or component group identifiers in QtIFW style.

AUTO_DEPEND_ON

list of identifiers of component or component group in QtIFW style that this component has an automatic dependency on.

LICENSES

pair of <display_name> and <file_path> of license text for this component. You can specify more then one license.

DEFAULT

Possible values are: TRUE, FALSE, and SCRIPT. Set to FALSE to disable the component in the installer or to SCRIPT to resolved during runtime (don’t forget add the file of the script as a value of the SCRIPT option).

USER_INTERFACES

is a list of <file_path> (‘.ui’ files) representing pages to load.

TRANSLATIONS

is a list of <file_path> (‘.qm’ files) representing translations to load.

REPLACES

list of identifiers of component or component group to replace.

CHECKABLE

Possible values are: TRUE, FALSE. Set to FALSE if you want to hide the checkbox for an item. This is useful when only a few subcomponents should be selected instead of all.

cpack_ifw_configure_component_group

Sets the arguments specific to the CPack IFW generator.

cpack_ifw_configure_component_group(<groupname> [VIRTUAL]
                    [FORCED_INSTALLATION] [REQUIRES_ADMIN_RIGHTS]

                    [VERSION <version>]
                    [RELEASE_DATE <release_date>]
                    [SCRIPT <script>]
                    [PRIORITY|SORTING_PRIORITY <sorting_priority>] # Note: PRIORITY is deprecated
                    [DEPENDS|DEPENDENCIES <com_id> ...]
                    [AUTO_DEPEND_ON <comp_id> ...]
                    [LICENSES <display_name> <file_path> ...]

FORCED_INSTALLATION

if set, then the group must always be installed.
