<section name="How it works">
<p>
The process of creating an installer from your
<code>${maven.dist.bin.dir}</code>
using the plugin is as follows:
<ol>
<li>
You, the user invoke the <code>nsis</code>, or
<code>nsis:installer</code>
goal.
</li>
<li>
This calls the <code>nsis:generate-project</code> goal, which creates
a file, <code>${maven.build.dir}/project.nsh</code>. This file contains
details from your project.xml file as constants so they are available
for during the NSIS compilation step. The file is generated from a jelly
template specified by the <code>${maven.nsis.project.template}</code>
variable. See the <a href="properties.html">properties</a> documentation
for more information on the defaults for this variable.
</li>
<li>
Next the <code>nsis:generate-setup</code> goal is called, which creates
a file, <code>${maven.build.dir}/setup.nsi</code>. This file is later
the file passed to the NSIS executable compiler,
<code>makensis.exe</code>.
This file is generated from a jelly template specified by the
<code>${maven.nsis.setup.template}</code> variable. See the
<a href="properties.html">properties</a> documentation
for more information on the defaults for this variable.
</li>
<li>
Lastly, <code>makensis.exe</code> is called to compile to generated
setup.nsi file.
</li>
</ol>
