Summary0012256: cpack should sanitize component names
DescriptionWorking on an Windows NSIS installer with components. Consider:

  add_executable(targetname ...)
  install (targetname COMPONENT "foo/bar")
  cpackk_add_component("foo/bar" DISPLAY_NAME "blabla" ...)

this results in CPackConfig.cmake:

# Configuration for component "foo/bar"
SET(CPACK_COMPONENT_FOO/BAR_DISPLAY_NAME "blabla")

The component "foo/bar" does not show up in the installer afterwards. The component names should probably be sanitised with regard to '/' and possibly other characters not allowed in variable names?!

Observed with cmake 2.8.1 on Windows, NSIS version 2.46.

 Additional observation: component name with a '-' result in proper cmake variables and are passed on to NSIS, but then NSIS complains:

Error: invalid characters in variable name "foo-bar_selected", use only characters [a-z][A-Z][0-9] and '_'

 Sending old, never assigned issues to the backlog.

(The age of the bug, plus the fact that it's never been assigned to anyone means that nobody is actively working on it...)

If an issue you care about is sent to the backlog when you feel it should have been addressed in a different manner, please bring it up on the CMake mailing list for discussion. Sign up for the mailing list here, if you're not already on it: http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake [^]

It's easy to re-activate a bug here if you can find a CMake developer who has the bandwidth to take it on, and ferry a fix through to our 'next' branch for dashboard testing.
