Hello All,
This update adds the ability to build Win23 Installers for WSPR-X &
MAP65, thus all three JTSDK-QT applications now have an Win32 Installer
build option. Details of the changes are listed below. Bare in mind,
this is still a work in progress. I have tested all three app builds for
completion, installation, operation and uninstall. All seems ok on my
end. Error handling will need improvement as unforeseen issues arise.
If you have issues with the upgrade, any of the builds or find typo's
etc, please post them to the WSJT Dev mailing list:
<wsjt-devel@lists.sourceforge.net>.
NOTE: The upgrade requires the SDK's to be installed to their default
locations: C:\JTSDK-QT, C:\JTSDK-PY and C:\JTSDK-DOC. If they are
not found, the installer-script "should" skip the update for that
particular SDK, in this case C:\JTSDK-QT
UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS:
Open, C:\jtsdk-doc\jtsdk-docenv.bat
Type, svn update
Type, update
Close the JTSDK-DOC Doc Window
Build options are the same as WSJT-X:
Open, C:\JTSDK-QT\jtsdk-qtenv.bat
Type, build map65 package or build wsprx package
To use the installer, browse to: C:\JTSDK-QT\map65\package and run the
installer: map65-Win32.exe
Default Install Path: C:\WSJT\MAP65 or C:\WSJT\WSPRX whichever you chose
to build.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
JTSDK-QT UPGRADE DETAILS:
- Added {map65,wpsrx}-jtsdk.iss files for use with InnoSetup5
- Added the same functionality as WSJT-X, but using Inno v.s. NSIS
- Other typos, links and help information updates.
Build Example:
- Syntax: build map65 package
- Final Installer Name: map65-Win32.exe
- Build Tree: C:\JTSDK-QT\map65\build\Release
- Install Target: C:\JTSDK-QT\map65\install\Release\bin
- Installer Location: C:\JTSDK-QT\map65\package
Inno Install Defaults:
- C:\WSJT\WSPRX or C:\WSJT\MAP65
- Option to run after Install
- Un-Installer Included.
MAP65 Note:
- Optimize FFT Plans and QTHID.exe (FunCube Dongle Controller) are *not*
included at the present time. In late updates this may change.
General Notes:
- Documentation links or local copies are *not* included with the test
version, but can easily be added at formal release time.
- Using the WSJT-X installer, you can edit the Group Prefix during
installation. It can be added to C:\WSJT\WSJTX, thus keeping all three
apps under WSJT if desired. The InnoSetup Installer provides the
same options during installation in case a different default location or
group is desired.
- Version information is intentionally left out of the installer name
until such time a release (Beta or otherwise) is announced.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
That's all for now. As stated above, if you have issues with any aspect
of the upgrade or build(s), send them to the Dev-List.
