Hi,
I'm sure such a tool is really cool stuff. I already experimented with easy installer, whcih is creating msi packaes for windows. I didn't use your installer, so this question comes up. What is the benefit of your installer compared to any other like install shield or easy installer? Has it special Mapsource features?
I wrote it because I wanted something which I could compile/bundle in an automated fashion on Linux and wasn't huge.
I played with the MSI tools briefly but couldn't see how I could get those features.
But as it turns out the nullsoft scriptable install system has those features: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/
That's what Lambertus is using to create his MapSource installers:
Using the NSIS is better than the ad-hoc program I've written. I just wrote it because I thought there wasn't anything else I could use.
So /ANNOUNCEMENT I guess :) _______________________________________________ mkgmap-dev mailing list mkgmap-dev@lists.mkgmap.org.uk http://www.mkgmap.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/mkgmap-dev
