@paoloambrosio, @muggenhor or @konserw : could you please review the pull request ?
Please ignore the commit 3887d2c, konserw told me it's wrong. I will wait for #184.

Coverage remained the same at 62.814% when pulling edea427 on matlo607:cmake-add-target-install into 870bfc2 on cucumber:master.

@matlo607 could you please rebase this branch onto master now that it is fixed? Also please drop commmit

Hello @konserw,
I rebased the branch and removed 8076700

I think include(GNUInstallDirs) should already do the right thing here.

The current source directory isn't necessary as include path so don't add it. Same below

Is adding this enough to permit us from removing the directory-scoped include_directories(${CUKE_INCLUDE_DIR}) in the toplevel CMakeLists.txt?

Why the duplication? The install() command supports multiple targets after TARGETS.

For usability I'm expecting an export() of the library targets too.

To support find_package(CucumberCpp) install(EXPORT). And use GNUInstallDirs instead of hardcoded installation paths.

This makes installing of the built libraries along with their headers possible through the CMake-standard 'install' target. It responds to the usual DESTDIR and CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX variables to control installation location.
