[Pharo-project] Windows Installer (was: direct object manipulation)
I want a good installer for each platform :)
For newspeak there is a native installer for Mac OS and Windows.
We already have/had a native Installer for Pharo on Windows. I already posted the script and resources for the free NSIS installer already on the list and also gave it to Igor. I've built them manually in the past. The idea was that the Jenkins Windows Slave should automatically build the setup. Looks like this is not yet done - maybe for time reasons. I wonder why they are removed from the homepages download section? However - one can still access the setup exe files at the inria files section [2] under "Pharo Win32 Setup". I still think that such an installer (which is standard on windows) is helpful for better adoption. Bye T. [1] http://www.mail-archive.com/pharo-project@lists.gforge.inria.fr/msg09522.htm...

This is simple. The windows slave was a hell to make run. We got a lot of problems because of specific networks structure of our local INRIA setup. Now this is somehow solved and by october we will move the a real jenkins service (we were beta testers for inria). I imagine that soon we will do one installer per platform.

Torsten, i remember about it. We had problems with windows slave when migrated from Hudson to Jenkins. Now they are gone.. so we can finish what is planned. On 31 March 2012 22:42, Torsten Bergmann <astares@gmx.de> wrote:
