<p><strong>Note:</strong> This example is valid for single-configuration generators and will
not work for multi-configuration generators (e.g. Visual Studio).</p>
<p>By default, CMake's model is that a build directory only contains a single
configuration, be it Debug, Release, MinSizeRel, or RelWithDebInfo. It is
possible, however, to setup CPack to bundle multiple build directories and
construct a package that contains multiple configurations of the same project.</p>
<p>First, we want to ensure that the debug and release builds use different names
for the libraries that will be installed. Let's use <cite>d</cite> as the
postfix for the debug libraries.</p>
<p>Set <span class="target" id="index-0-variable:CMAKE_DEBUG_POSTFIX"></span><a class="reference internal" href="../../variable/CMAKE_DEBUG_POSTFIX.html#variable:CMAKE_DEBUG_POSTFIX" title="CMAKE_DEBUG_POSTFIX"><code class="xref cmake cmake-variable docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">CMAKE_DEBUG_POSTFIX</span></code></a> near the beginning of the top-level
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">CMakeLists.txt</span></code> file:</p>
<div class="literal-block-wrapper docutils container" id="cmakelists-txt-cmake-debug-postfix-variable">
<div class="code-block-caption"><span class="caption-text">CMakeLists.txt</span><a class="headerlink" href="#cmakelists-txt-cmake-debug-postfix-variable" title="Permalink to this code">¶</a></div>
<div class="highlight-cmake notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nf">set(</span><span class="no">CMAKE_DEBUG_POSTFIX</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="nb">d</span><span class="nf">)</span><span class="w"></span>

</pre></div>
</div>
</div>
<p>And the <span class="target" id="index-0-prop_tgt:DEBUG_POSTFIX"></span><a class="reference internal" href="../../prop_tgt/DEBUG_POSTFIX.html#prop_tgt:DEBUG_POSTFIX" title="DEBUG_POSTFIX"><code class="xref cmake cmake-prop_tgt docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">DEBUG_POSTFIX</span></code></a> property on the tutorial executable:</p>

</pre></div>
</div>
</div>
<p>Let's also add version numbering to the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">MathFunctions</span></code> library. In
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">MathFunctions/CMakeLists.txt</span></code>, set the <span class="target" id="index-0-prop_tgt:VERSION"></span><a class="reference internal" href="../../prop_tgt/VERSION.html#prop_tgt:VERSION" title="VERSION"><code class="xref cmake cmake-prop_tgt docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">VERSION</span></code></a> and
<span class="target" id="index-0-prop_tgt:SOVERSION"></span><a class="reference internal" href="../../prop_tgt/SOVERSION.html#prop_tgt:SOVERSION" title="SOVERSION"><code class="xref cmake cmake-prop_tgt docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">SOVERSION</span></code></a> properties:</p>
<div class="literal-block-wrapper docutils container" id="mathfunctions-cmakelists-txt-version-properties">
<div class="code-block-caption"><span class="caption-text">MathFunctions/CMakeLists.txt</span><a class="headerlink" href="#mathfunctions-cmakelists-txt-version-properties" title="Permalink to this code">¶</a></div>
<div class="highlight-cmake notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nf">set_property(</span><span class="no">TARGET</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="nb">MathFunctions</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="no">PROPERTY</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="no">VERSION</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="s">"1.0.0"</span><span class="nf">)</span><span class="w"></span>
<span class="nf">set_property(</span><span class="no">TARGET</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="nb">MathFunctions</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="no">PROPERTY</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="no">SOVERSION</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="s">"1"</span><span class="nf">)</span><span class="w"></span>
</pre></div>
</div>
</div>
<p>From the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Step12</span></code> directory, create <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">debug</span></code> and <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">release</span></code>
subdirectories. The layout will look like:</p>
<div class="highlight-none notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>- Step12
- debug
- release
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Now we need to setup debug and release builds. We can use
<span class="target" id="index-0-variable:CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE"></span><a class="reference internal" href="../../variable/CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE.html#variable:CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE" title="CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE"><code class="xref cmake cmake-variable docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE</span></code></a> to set the configuration type:</p>
<div class="highlight-console notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="go">cd debug</span>
<span class="go">cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug ..</span>
<span class="go">cmake --build .</span>
<span class="go">cd ../release</span>
<span class="go">cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..</span>
<span class="go">cmake --build .</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Now that both the debug and release builds are complete, we can use a custom
configuration file to package both builds into a single release. In the
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Step12</span></code> directory, create a file called <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">MultiCPackConfig.cmake</span></code>. In this
file, first include the default configuration file that was created by the
<span class="target" id="index-0-manual:cmake(1)"></span><a class="reference internal" href="../../manual/cmake.1.html#manual:cmake(1)" title="cmake(1)"><code class="xref cmake cmake-manual docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">cmake</span></code></a> executable.</p>
<p>Next, use the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">CPACK_INSTALL_CMAKE_PROJECTS</span></code> variable to specify which
projects to install. In this case, we want to install both debug and release.</p>
<div class="literal-block-wrapper docutils container" id="multicpackconfig-cmake">
<div class="code-block-caption"><span class="caption-text">MultiCPackConfig.cmake</span><a class="headerlink" href="#multicpackconfig-cmake" title="Permalink to this code">¶</a></div>
<div class="highlight-cmake notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="nf">include(</span><span class="s">"release/CPackConfig.cmake"</span><span class="nf">)</span><span class="w"></span>
<span class="nf">set(</span><span class="no">CPACK_INSTALL_CMAKE_PROJECTS</span><span class="w"></span>
<span class="w"> </span><span class="s">"debug;Tutorial;ALL;/"</span><span class="w"></span>
<span class="w"> </span><span class="s">"release;Tutorial;ALL;/"</span><span class="w"></span>
<span class="w"> </span><span class="nf">)</span><span class="w"></span>
</pre></div>
</div>
</div>
<p>From the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Step12</span></code> directory, run <span class="target" id="index-0-manual:cpack(1)"></span><a class="reference internal" href="../../manual/cpack.1.html#manual:cpack(1)" title="cpack(1)"><code class="xref cmake cmake-manual docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">cpack</span></code></a> specifying our
custom configuration file with the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">config</span></code> option:</p>
<div class="highlight-console notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="go">cpack --config MultiCPackConfig.cmake</span>
