----------------------------------------
Summary: Support building MSI installer in release script
Key: DAFFODIL-2066
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAFFODIL-2066
Project: Daffodil
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Infrastructure
Reporter: Steve Lawrence
DAFFODIL-2047 adds support for building a windows MSI installer. It does this
by using the sbt native-packager plugin which uses WiX tools for building
MSI's. Unfortunately, WiX tools are windows only right now.
Our release script requires Linux for building tars and rpms. And it's
important that that tar/rpm/msi that we build are build at the same time to
ensure the Jars are exatly the same. So we need a way to run WiX tools on
linux. There are some reports that WiX tools can run under wine, so we need to
A) figure out and document steps to get WIX tools to run under wine and B)
determine how we can get the sbt-native-packager plugin to run wine rather than
run WiX tools directly.
