[CMake] Help with INSTALL(TARGETS

[Michael Salt]

Thanks Alex,

The trouble is that at the moment, my targets (.exe, .dll) are built  
in a directory within the 'build' folder. Of course, the contents of  
the build folder are not generated until I run cmake, so I actually  
have nowhere to put the CMakeLists.txt file. I do not want to create  
the folders manually because it may just be a Visual Studio specific  
feature to create executables within the subdirectories of the build  
folder, and I wish to retain portability.

Is it possible that I am doing something awkward that makes this  
feature difficult to use?

Cheers,

Mike
