Summary0015183: Xcode INSTALL_PATH setting makes archiving impossible
DescriptionCMake sets CMAKE_XCODE_ATTRIBUTE_INSTALL_PATH to an empty string ("") when generating xcode projects. For whatever reason archiving projects only works when
- INSTALL_PATH is NOT set
- INSTALL_PATH is set to some value other than the empty string ("")

It does NOT work when
- INSTALL_PATH is set to the empty string

So I propose for CMake to not set this value at all, then XCode takes some default which works for archiving files.

- Nothing happens

 Actually, not setting it makes XCode take the default value "/Applications". So setting it to this by default might be an alternative...

 IIRC this value is controlled by the INSTALL_NAME_DIR target property:

 After reading 0015946 I'm not sure the patch is correct. If we write a project with empty INSTALL_PATH archiving will work, but also xcodebuild install will install something. It will install the targets into /usr/local/something.

IMHO instead the correct fix would be to add schema support (0015441) and add a "cmake install" call prior to archiving so that the built products are archived like they would be installed by cmake.
