Does anyone know a way to build a Windows Installer program for a Perl script and its dependent libraries? -
i work part-time computer tech @ local high school. needed system keep track of computers in district (things physical location of machines , serial numbers inventory), , told me keep on budget. sat down , wrote little thousand-line script in perl/tk, accesses postgresql database on local server.
i wrote launcher in c++ , compiled bcc32, can single-click launcher executable start program without having type dos. works fine, , can load program myself manually installing dependencies hand.
i build setup program automatically load postgresql application, strawberry perl, tk, , dbd::pg libraries, , finally, of course, folder application stored in. it'd nice able create desktop shortcuts or start menu items too.
has had success software generate .msi files windows installer on windows xp , above? if so, did use, , did cost money? alternatively, need begin reading in order write own setup program?
