Added a new variable CPACK_WIX_PATCH_FILE that users can point at an
XML patch file. Fragments defined within the patch file will be inserted
at supported insertion points (currently Component, File and Directory).
Creates a hierarchy of WiX features from CPack components and component groups.
Switch to the FeatureTree UI in case components have been defined.
Handles the component REQUIRE and HIDDEN options
and the component group EXPANDED option.
Drop #end and #module. Convert #section to a subsection header.
Convert #variable to the cmake domain "variable" directive.
Convert #macro to the cmake domain "command" directive.
Perform minor formatting fixes in text near these changes.
WiX provides a lot of functionality for installers that cannot be
supported (easily) in the default WIX.template.in file.
For most users, the default template should be fine. However if users
want to produce merge modules, include custom actions, etc, this new
option allows for a hook into how the wxs is produced.
This new CPack generator produces an *.msi installer file.
Requires having the WiX Toolset installed in order to work
properly.
