||||||
folder where files are. You can find runtime files from VS installation or from
|
|
||||||
net.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
NOTE: To make local installation of runtimes to work you must remove the
|
Building installer
|
||||||
publicKeyToken="blahblah" -attribute from the manifest file.
|

|
||||||
|
|
||||||
QT Libraries:
|
Before building the installer make sure all the components are build:
|
||||||
Visual Studio is used to build the GUI executable. And QT must be build with VS
|
- CLI executable (cppcheck.exe)
|
||||||
also. When building QT make sure you build release targets!
|
- GUI executable (gui.exe)
|
||||||
|
- Manual (manual.pdf)
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Copy following files to same RuntimesFolder than VS runtime files:
|
And that runtime files are available:
|
||||||
- QtCore4.dll
|
- Qt runtimes (qtcore4.dll, qtgui4.dll and qtxml4.dll)
|
||||||
- QtGui4.dll
|
- MS CRT merge module (Microsoft_VC90_CRT_x86.msm)
|
||||||
- QtXml4.dll
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Creating the installer executable:
|
Build installer by giving this command line in VS command prompt (or run
|
||||||
#1 Open the ISTool and load cppcheck.iss
|
vcvars32.bat in DOS prompt first to setup environment):
|
||||||
#2 Update the release version number:
|
|
||||||
- look for line "#define AppVersion"
|
|
||||||
#3 Check all files are present:
|
|
||||||
- from menu: Project / Verify files...
|
|
||||||
#4 Compile the installer
|
|
||||||
- from menu: Project / Compile Setup
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If compilation succeeds, the installer executable is created into /Build
|
> msbuild cppcheck.wixproj /p:Platform=x86,ProductVersion=X.YY
|
||||||
-folder. The filename is cppcheck-[version]-setup.exe.
|
|
||||||
|
For example:
|
||||||
|
> msbuild cppcheck.wixproj /p:Platform=x86,ProductVersion=1.40
