Hi! Just FYI: Mostly as an exercise for myself, I'm working on a toolkit to create Windows Installer MSI packages from C source code. I'm thinking that it might be useful in Win32 open source projects that wants to roll a MSI package during the standard make process. There is still a lot of functions to add to the toolkit, but the base functionality is there. I decided to test the toolkit so far on OpenSSL, since it's basically just packing a bunch of files (and adding to PATH). If anyone is curious, here is a patch:
ftp://ftp.runestig.com/pub/misc/openssl-0.9.6g-msi-20020828.zip http://www.runestig.com/pub/misc/openssl-0.9.6g-msi-20020828.zip It might look big, since there's some bitmaps and icons represented in a header file in there. After applying the patch, and doing the Windows Configure stuff, you can do something like this to build and get a MSI package: nmake -f 32dll.mak msi Cheers, - Peter ---------------------------------------------------------------- Peter 'Luna' Runestig (fd.
