Home < NA-MIC < Projects < NA-MIC Kit < CPack - NAMIC Kit DistributionObjective:
The purpose of CPack is to enable cross-platform packaging and distribution of software. Packaging software across multiple platforms has been a difficult, error prone and time consuming process. CPack is an adjunct component of CMake that addresses this issue. It uses the concept of generators from CMake, where a generator abstracts the platform specific packaging issues. It then produces native package distributions such as RPMs (Linux) and Windows installers.
Progress:
CPack is a relatively young software tool whose development was initiated in the second year of NA-MIC funding. The third
