Hello all,
I just want to tell that I am the half way done for an msi installer using wix.
I will post this within one week.
Currently I am not so familiar with the wix syntax. For the moment localization of the installer is not supported (but can be done).
Using wix some important functionalities are built in: - uninstaller - distribution on network using microsoft tools
Cheers, Adib. --
Awesome news! Great to hear! Thanks for pursuing this!
Cheers, Josh

MSI installer is a common request, great that you're working on this. Is it possible to build the new installer using a command-line tool? (I'm just wondering how it would integrate into the build process.)

I am using the wix tools from Rob Mensching http://wixtoolset.org/
I use those for some small projects at office.
We could bundle the bins in the devlibs folder if you want. - But we do not bundle the mingw compiler anyway. I need to dynamically build the file list because of the dynamic nature of localisation and examples files. The file list I want to create using python.
As the wix command line tools exists for win32 only the build can be done on win32 only.
