Opensource Installer for for Axis C++
Hi All,
It seems that the installation process of Axis C++ is difficult.To
create more simpler installation process it is good idea to use an open
source installer. If any one knows about this kind of installer please
inform.
The installer should have following features.
It should be capable of creating new folders.
It should be able to create and populate enviorenment variables.
It should be able to check weather the required libraries are installed
etc.

Why GPL? Why not Apache License?

Re: Opensource Installer for for Axis C++

Hi All,
Today i begin the creation of an Installer for Windows version of
axis-c++ (if any interested) based on current 1.2 binary found in the
axis site on apache.org domain:
Done:
1.- Ask for a directory and check if there is apache installed
2.- Ask for a directory and check if there is any Expat or Xerces
library (user selected option)
3.- Select the Axis installation directory
4.- Put the directory tree as described in INSTALL instructions
5.- Added license agreement (LICENSE file from downloaded binary zip)
Testing:
4.- Change environment variables according to user selection and
installed directories.
Pending:
5.- Make changes to httpd.conf
6.- Restart apache if installed as service.
I used an opensource install program called "inno setup", i will
put the Script source as GPL so anybody can use the install script to
make an updated version once it is finished for Axis-C 1.2 version.
Regards,
Edgar Zavala.

Installer is probably needed only for Windows. Unix systems has their own
native package formats and installers. It will be very easy to create native
packages for different Unixes once build system is completely converted to
standard autoconf/automake build system.
