allows disabling generation of install rules for projects which don't
want them.

+
+Whether to disable generation of installation rules.
+
+If TRUE, cmake will neither generate installaton rules nor
+will it generate cmake_install.cmake files. This variable is FALSE by default.

+#   ...
+#   run_cmake(SubTestN)
+# where SubTest1..SubTestN are sub-test names each corresponding to

+#   project(${RunCMake_TEST} NONE) # or languages needed
