# - CONFIGURE_PACKAGE_CONFIG_FILE(), WRITE_BASIC_PACKAGE_VERSION_FILE()
#
#    CONFIGURE_PACKAGE_CONFIG_FILE(<input> <output> INSTALL_DESTINATION <path>
#                                                   [PATH_VARS <var1> <var2> ... <varN>]
#                                                   [NO_SET_AND_CHECK_MACRO] )
#
# CONFIGURE_PACKAGE_CONFIG_FILE() should be used instead of the plain
# CONFIGURE_FILE() command when creating the <Name>Config.cmake or <Name>-config.cmake
# file for installing a project or library. It helps making the resulting package
# relocatable by avoiding hardcoded paths in the installed Config.cmake file.
#
# In a FooConfig.cmake file there may be code like this to make the
# install destinations know to the using project:
#   set(FOO_INCLUDE_DIR   "@CMAKE_INSTALL_FULL_INCLUDEDIR@" )
#   set(FOO_DATA_DIR   "@CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX@/@RELATIVE_DATA_INSTALL_DIR@" )
#   set(FOO_ICONS_DIR   "@CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX@/share/icons" )
#   ...logic to determine installedPrefix from the own location...
#   set(FOO_CONFIG_DIR  "${installedPrefix}/@CONFIG_INSTALL_DIR@" )
# All 4 options shown above are not sufficient, since the first 3 hardcode
# the absolute directory locations, and the 4th case works only if the logic
# to determine the installedPrefix is correct, and if CONFIG_INSTALL_DIR contains
# a relative path, which in general cannot be guaranteed.
# This has the effect that the resulting FooConfig.cmake file would work poorly
# under Windows and OSX, where users are used to choose the install location
# of a binary package at install time, independent from how CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX
# was set at build/cmake time.
#
# Using CONFIGURE_PACKAGE_CONFIG_FILE() helps. If used correctly, it makes the
# resulting FooConfig.cmake file relocatable.
# Usage:
#   1. write a FooConfig.cmake.in file as you are used to
#   2. insert a line containing only the string "@PACKAGE_INIT@"
#   3. instead of SET(FOO_DIR "@SOME_INSTALL_DIR@"), use SET(FOO_DIR "@PACKAGE_SOME_INSTALL_DIR@")
#      (this must be after the @PACKAGE_INIT@ line)
#   4. instead of using the normal CONFIGURE_FILE(), use CONFIGURE_PACKAGE_CONFIG_FILE()
#
# The <input> and <output> arguments are the input and output file, the same way
# as in CONFIGURE_FILE().
#
# The <path> given to INSTALL_DESTINATION must be the destination where the FooConfig.cmake
# file will be installed to. This can either be a relative or absolute path, both work.
#
# The variables <var1> to <varN> given as PATH_VARS are the variables which contain
# install destinations. For each of them the macro will create a helper variable
# PACKAGE_<var...>. These helper variables must be used
# in the FooConfig.cmake.in file for setting the installed location. They are calculated
# by CONFIGURE_PACKAGE_CONFIG_FILE() so that they are always relative to the
# installed location of the package. This works both for relative and also for absolute locations.
# For absolute locations it works only if the absolute location is a subdirectory
# of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.
#
# By default configure_package_config_file() also generates a macro set_and_check()
# into the FooConfig.cmake file. This should be used instead of the normal set()
# command for setting directories and file locations. Additionally to setting the
# variable it also checks that the referenced file or directory actually exists
# and fails with a FATAL_ERROR otherwise. This makes sure that the created
# FooConfig.cmake file does not contain wrong references.
# When using the NO_SET_AND_CHECK_MACRO, this macro is not generated into the
# FooConfig.cmake file.
#
# For an example see below the documentation for WRITE_BASIC_PACKAGE_VERSION_FILE().
#
#
#  WRITE_BASIC_PACKAGE_VERSION_FILE( filename VERSION major.minor.patch COMPATIBILITY (AnyNewerVersion|SameMajorVersion) )
#
# Writes a file for use as <package>ConfigVersion.cmake file to <filename>.
# See the documentation of FIND_PACKAGE() for details on this.
#    filename is the output filename, it should be in the build tree.
#    major.minor.patch is the version number of the project to be installed
# The COMPATIBILITY mode AnyNewerVersion means that the installed package version
# will be considered compatible if it is newer or exactly the same as the requested version.
# If SameMajorVersion is used instead, then the behaviour differs from AnyNewerVersion
# in that the major version number must be the same as requested, e.g. version 2.0 will
# not be considered compatible if 1.0 is requested.
# If your project has more elaborated version matching rules, you will need to write your
# own custom ConfigVersion.cmake file instead of using this macro.
#
# Internally, this macro executes configure_file() to create the resulting
# version file. Depending on the COMPATIBLITY, either the file
# BasicConfigVersion-SameMajorVersion.cmake.in or BasicConfigVersion-AnyNewerVersion.cmake.in
# is used. Please note that these two files are internal to CMake and you should
# not call configure_file() on them yourself, but they can be used as starting
# point to create more sophisticted custom ConfigVersion.cmake files.
#
#
# Example using both configure_package_config_file() and write_basic_package_version_file():
# CMakeLists.txt:
#   set(INCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR include/ ... CACHE )
#   set(LIB_INSTALL_DIR lib/ ... CACHE )
#   set(SYSCONFIG_INSTALL_DIR etc/foo/ ... CACHE )
#   ...
#   include(CMakePackageConfigHelpers)
#   configure_package_config_file(FooConfig.cmake.in ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/FooConfig.cmake
#                                 INSTALL_DESTINATION ${LIB_INSTALL_DIR}/Foo/cmake
#                                 PATH_VARS INCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR SYSCONFIG_INSTALL_DIR)
#   write_basic_package_version_file(${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/FooConfigVersion.cmake
#                                    VERSION 1.2.3
#                                    COMPATIBILITY SameMajorVersion )
#   install(FILES ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/FooConfig.cmake ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/FooConfigVersion.cmake
#           DESTINATION ${LIB_INSTALL_DIR}/Foo/cmake )
#
# With a FooConfig.cmake.in:
#   set(FOO_VERSION x.y.z)
#   ...
#   @PACKAGE_INIT@
#   ...
#   set_and_check(FOO_INCLUDE_DIR "@PACKAGE_INCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR@")
#   set_and_check(FOO_SYSCONFIG_DIR "@PACKAGE_SYSCONFIG_INSTALL_DIR@")
