[CMake] creating <Package>Config.cmake and the LOCATION property

[Server Levent Yilmaz]

I have an outdated version of "Mastering CMake" book (for CMake version
2.2).   Referring to section 6.7 "Creating a <Package>Config.cmake file",
 the configure step contains the following:

GET_TARGET_PROPERTY( GROMIT_LIBRARY Gromit LOCATION )

where Gromit is the library target and GROMIT_LIBRARY is the variable to be
used by CONFIGURE_FILE(  GromitConfig.cmake.in  ... ) command. The problem
is that the LOCATION property is deprecated in CMake 2.6 (see
http://www.cmake.org/HTML/cmake-2.6.html#prop_tgt:LOCATION ), for reasons
which seems to exclude this particular use.

So, what is the correct way to create config files for a library project?

thx,
Levent
