Hi Simon,
Thanks for that!!!... A question... the gnugk.iss file is the 2.2.5 version (comes with gnugk2.2.6), is there a 2.2.6 version of gnugk.iss???
It's just that there are errors such as that there is no billing.pl or .cvsignore in v2.2.6. It's all good, I can just take these lines out of the gnugk.iss file, I just wanted to check is these functions were actually removed in the newer version of gnugk, or whether I should still be leaving them in gnugk.iss but change the path (I don't know where they are, if they exist).
Also, when you said to 'Extract the existing v2.2.6 zip file into contrib\WinInstaller\GnuGk\' did you mean the whole gnugk2.2.6 source package? It's just that it seems weird to be copying a whole package into itself. Am I understanding you correctly???
There was no existing \bin directory, so I created one and placed my gnugk.exe, addpasswd.exe and gatekeeper.ini in there... yes??? Am I doing it right???
Thanks again!!!
Bec

Subject: Re: How do I create a setup.exe from gnugk sourcecode???
Rebecca Make sure you release your changes back to the community as GnuGk is GNU licenced... Now that is out of the way :) Download istool from www.istool.org and open the gnugk.iss file. Extract the existing v2.2.6 zip file into contrib\WinInstaller\GnuGk\ then replace the bin\gnugk.exe from the zip file with your build then create the install package with istool. Simon Hi,
I have downloaded the GnuGK source code and compiled it with Microsoft Visual C++ (along with pwlib, etc).
I have built it from scratch because I wanted to edit the source code to provide some kind of dynamic bandwidth control. (That's another matter :) )
This creates gnugk.exe in C:\Program Files\gnugk-2.2.6\Release
At the moment I have simply moved this gnugk.exe to the directory:
C:\Program Files\C:\Program Files\gnugk-2.2.6\contrib\WinInstaller\Install
where the gatekeeper.ini file is located, and to run the gatekeeper I am just running the .exe file from there.
It's all working fine, but I would like to somehow find a way of setting it up like the pre-built version (GnuGKSetup226.exe) that
creates all the access to the gatekeeper through the Start menu>Program Files. (i.e. Add User, Monitor, etc)
Is there some way of simply incorporating my gnugk.exe into the GnuGKSetup2.2.6.exe? Or another way???
I haven't had any experience with creating install applications, so don't really know what I'm doing.
I just didn't want to start trying to make an install aplication if there was some way to do it with the files already provided, etc....
Any help please???
Thanks,
Bec
