cmake can describe components of project and install by one. I need to get a list of components in current project.

I can insall one component of a cmake project by run cmake --install . --component <name>

Is there a way for lists all compoents in a cmake poject?

Something like

cmake --install . --list-components

return

<name1>
<name2>
<name3>
...

Search all CMakeLists.txt file for COMPONENT and the name after it is a installable comonent.

Components are explicitly defined for install command by adding COMPONENT <component_name>.
