CMAKE_INSTALL_DEFAULT_DIRECTORY_PERMISSIONS

New in version 3.11.

Default permissions for directories created implicitly during installation of files by install() and file(INSTALL).

If make install is invoked and directories are implicitly created they get permissions set by CMAKE_INSTALL_DEFAULT_DIRECTORY_PERMISSIONS variable or platform specific default permissions if the variable is not set.

Implicitly created directories are created if they are not explicitly installed by install() command but are needed to install a file on a certain path. Example of such locations are directories created due to the setting of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX.

Expected content of the CMAKE_INSTALL_DEFAULT_DIRECTORY_PERMISSIONS variable is a list of permissions that can be used by install() command PERMISSIONS section.

Example usage:

set(CMAKE_INSTALL_DEFAULT_DIRECTORY_PERMISSIONS
     OWNER_READ
     OWNER_WRITE
     OWNER_EXECUTE
     GROUP_READ
   )
