Hellow,

I would like to know whether there is an application within U++ or Bazaar for installing programs. I know that there is the Updater package in Bazaar but it seems to be limited and web oriented and I am interested in the typical software installer.

If there isn't anything in U++, what free software do you tipically use? What about Windows Installer?

Thanks,

Javier

Hi Javier,

As far as I know there is only one thing around that does this: The installer for U++ itself Smile The code is rather simple and can be found in uppbox/MakeInstall4. It just copies all the files and folders to one location, compiles the binaries and cals 7z to compress it and in the end it calls WinInstaller to make the archive into an installer. Easy and straight forward, no magic involved Smile

Best regards,
Honza

I use InnoSetup. Scripting is very simple. And professional installation design.

Hi

I use NSIS. It works well, but I'm a bit worried about the recently sluggish development.

Best regards,

Tom
