feature request: support installing imported targets for vcpkg and conan
Although not universally appicable to all IMPORTED targets as #167 is trying to do, vcpkg and conan 2.4.0 already provide a way to install their IMPORTED targets:
-
vcpkg provides two options for users to easily copy
runtimes(only) dlls to thebuild directoryandinstallation directory. (learnt from this comment) -
conan 2.4.0's CMakeToolchain generator provides a cmake variable
CONAN_RUNTIME_LIB_DIRSthat allows users to install runtime libraries. (see the corresponding documentation here, and this comment shows how to copy runtimes to output folder with it)
So maybe we could support them respectively? (or unify them into a general function?)
