[CMake] Telling CMake to use zlibConfig.cmake instead of the Findzlib.cmake

[Kedzierski, Artur CIV NAVSURFWARCENDIV CORONA]

	Thank You for the suggestion.
	Your interpretation is right but there is a catch to it.
There is another module that gets in the way. The "private
module designed for one project" is zlibConfig.cmake. CMake
distribution comes with a module Findzlib.cmake. When
another project calls FIND_PACKAGE(zlib), CMake searches for Findzlib.cmake
first. Because it finds it, it doesn't search for zlibConfig.cmake
and it doesn't give me an option to set zlib_DIR. Now, with Brad's
new changes I will be able to tell FIND_PACKAGE(zlib NO_MODULE) to
bypass the Findzlib.cmake and use zlibConfig.cmake.

wouldn't do the trick.

An obvious interpretation of your question (which I have just re-read) is
"how could I use a private module designed for one project in another
project?" If that interpretation of your question is correct, then simply
copy the private module from the first project to the source tree of the
second project and use CMAKE_MODULE_PATH (just like I assume you did for
your first project) to access the private module.

If there is some other interpretation of your question, then ignore my
suggestion.
