Installation in "standard" system directories #4

Closed simleo closed 5 years ago

simleo commented 5 years ago

Currently, after ECVL is installed with CMake, e.g.:

mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
make
make install

resulting artifacts (includes, libs and CMake output files) are all placed under the build/install dir. It would be useful to have an option to install these artifacts in "standard" system directories, such as /usr/lib and /usr/include. This would make pyecvl installation easier, since includes and libraries would be automatically found on the system.

I am not a CMake expert, but I think that CMake output files (e.g., ECVLConfig.cmake) should also be installed in some "standard" location so they can be found by other projects that use CMake's find_package.
