This directory includes a Python script and WiX scripts for building a MSI installer for Reinteract. To make this work, you'll need: * All the (binary) components that go into building the installer. The components in each installer build are listed at: http://www.reinteract.org/download/Reinteract-.msi.components with their original URLs. (The components are also mirrored in the components/binary directory.) The non-Python components need to be installed with the bin/ directory in your PATH environment variable. * WiX version 3 installed and added to your PATH. Get it from: http://wix.sourceforge.net/ * To build against Python-2.5, MinGW installed and added to your PATH. (This is used to compile the Reinteract.exe wrapper script.) Get it from: http://www.mingw.org/ * To build against Python-2.6 or Python-2.7, Visual Studio 2008 or Visual C++ 20008 Express Edition (a free download) installed. Then simply run 'python build_msi.py' from this directory, and: Reinteract--python2.N.msi file will be generated. The file Reinteract--python2.N.msi.manifest is a listing of all the files in the installer. This is meant for comparing with the previous version to make sure that files haven't gone missing. Some portions of the installer user interface are derived from an installer I created for the Mugshot Windows client. Those portions are Copyright Red Hat, Inc, 2006. The rest of the user interface files and build_msi.py are Copyright Owen Taylor, 2008-2009. All of the code and data in this directory may be used under the same licensing terms as the rest of Reinteract.
