CMake error while configuring "install TARGETS given no RUNTIME DESTINATION for executable target "assimp_simpletexturedogl"."

Question

I'm trying to use CMake to configure assimp's samples

but there are some error while configuring

I've tried lot's of method but no one works.

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:41 (INSTALL):
      install TARGETS given no RUNTIME DESTINATION for executable target
      "assimp_simpletexturedogl".


    CMake Warning (dev) in CMakeLists.txt:
      No cmake_minimum_required command is present.  A line of code such as

        cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.2)

      should be added at the top of the file.  The version specified may be lower
      if you wish to support older CMake versions for this project.  For more
      information run "cmake --help-policy CMP0000".
    This warning is for project developers.  Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.

    Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
    See also "D:/OpenGL/assimp-3.1.1-win-binaries/samples/SimpleTexturedOpenGL/made/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".

Here is my CMakeLists.txt, any idea would be appreciate.

I'm using MSVC2013 to compile.

Answer 1

You forgot to indicate a folder for the executable. Try this:

INSTALL( 

     TARGETS assimp_simpletexturedogl
     RUNTIME DESTINATION bin
     DESTINATION "${ASSIMP_BIN_INSTALL_DIR}" COMPONENT assimp-dev
) 

I don't know why in cMake is a requirement to have a drop folder ( bin in my example ) for the executable, but this is the problem here.
