please use ${LIB_INSTALL_DIR} to send library to the correct directory

[GoogleCodeExporter]

hello, i have a 64 bits system and figured that the install routine have a 
hardcoded path on it:

http://code.google.com/p/box2d/source/browse/trunk/Box2D/Box2D/CMakeLists.txt?sp
ec=svn237&r=199#194

The correctly should be lib64, but only when the system is 64 bits, for x86 
this is by far the correct.

The closest solution that i've found is this variable: 
http://librelist.com/browser//yajl/2010/3/25/patch-install-into-usr-lib64-on-x86
-64-arch-where-needed/

sadly i can't confirm that it exists on cmake 2.6

it works now. the following line does the correct job now:

 cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr -DLIB_INSTALL_DIR=lib64 .

thanks a lot.

But the cherry in the cake would be some kind of autodetection system, ;)

those guys from KDE seems to have something like this:

http://kwave.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/kwave/tags/Release-0_8_6/CMakeLists.txt?
revision=2682&view=markup

line 90 seems to be a useful strategy.
