Windows installer

##Overview

The Windows installation script has been created using the NSIS Installer. The folder release/installer/win contains only the scripting part, which must be compiled using NSIS right after copying the necessary release files into the bin folder. In the next section, a step-by-step explanation on how to create a new MapStore EXE installer.

##Setup

• Be sure also to install the NSIS Access Control Plugin: http://nsis.sourceforge.net/AccessControl_plug-in

• Build a MapStore dist or get a release; you need to get anything that will be created under mapstore folder

##Create the Installer

Once you the system is ready and you have collected the mapstore release files:

• copy all the mapstore release files under "release/installer/win/bin"

• click with the right mouse button over "MapStoreEXE.nsi" and from the contextual menu select: *Compile NSIS Script"

• wait until completion, and at the end test the installer in order to be sure everything has gone as espected

The new installer is ready to be distributed under release/installer/win
