Actually, its not so much registry entries but being able to muck
with the path information, etc. For ImageMagick alone, if the user
decides he/she wants to install stuff in a weird location--then all
the environment variables need to all be updated. I'm sure I'll run
across other things that could be automated during an install so a
user can just point and click.

David,
No you do not need Cygwin. Per Greg you could use the scripts in windows
directory, but I personally could never got those scripts working for me.
I will ftp to your server the *.dsw files today or tomorrow.
I am puzzeled about installer to to take care of registry entries. Those
codes
were disabled because they require you also have a License available fro
OpenDX.

Subject: [opendx-dev] Windows compiling
Okay, so I'm ready to start compiling up this Windows stuff with the
VSC6 stuff and have a few questions to get started. Do I need to have
cygwin installed in order to configure stuff to do the compile. From
Greg's note yesterday about setting the right environment up--I take
this as yes.
If not, what are the first few things I need to do to set this up.
Anybody build the .dsw stuff to configure within Visual Studio? I did
a compile of ImageMagick this morning following there somewhat
lengthy Win32 build instructions with all their fancy build stuff.
After it was built, following the rest of their instructions, I now
see what Greg was saying about needing to write an installer that
takes care of all the registry editing.
I noted that in the past, Suhaib and Greg have stated that they had
VSC project files. If I don't need to configure stuff with
cygwin--anybody want to send me their project files?
