The Visual Studio 2005 and 2008 runtime libraries are provided as redistributable merge modules and a redistributable EXE based installer. The attached patch contains source code for installing these runtime libraries as part of an NSIS based installation by packaging the merge modules into an MSI that is invoked in the NSIS script.
Using an MSI and the redistributable merge modules instead of the EXE based runtime installer gives us: 1) Runtime installation for debug builds. 2) Better cleanup when uninstalling the NSIS based installation. The EXE based runtime installer does not uninstall the runtime. Patch generated against the trunk in directory src/windows/installer/nsis. _______________________________________________ kfwdev mailing list kfwdev@mit.edu http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kfwdev
