Hmmm, not sure if I understand you completely - at least it sounds that
we don't even have a concept yet. When I get you right ...
Change the Makefile.nmake(s) like the following:
- move the EXTRA_DIST file list from Makefile.am to Makefile.common
- add some script stuff (e.g. zip-packaging target) to Makefile.nmake to
generate a zip file of "all related" source files (some lists)
to test it (e.g. the buildbot) then:
- call Makefile.nmake to make zip-packaging
- unpack that zip in a clean dir
- do the build process
Do I get you right? What do mean to do with nsi?
Yep, you do get me right. That's what the distcheck target does on unix.
by NSI I intended NSIS the packager for windows, and yes I checked and
It has an Include command.
What I was thinking is to add almost all (somethings are better made
by hand) the extra distribution files with a generated file.nsi so
that all that needs to be changed is the EXTRA_DIST macro. That way to
add a file to the distribution (on both plattforms) we need to change
just the EXTRA_DIST macro instead of having to add the file to the
macro and to the installer script.
