-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 All,
Does anyone know why we are continuing to use Nullsoft's installer[1] to build Tomcat installers for Windows? It looks like Microsoft's MSI[2] is supported down to Windows 7, which is the latest supported version of their own OSs. Is "backward-compatibility" the only reason to stick with NSIS for now? Or in the past? I'm asking because Mark and I were talking about building a release on Macos, and he said it wasn't possible because something in NSIS doesn't play well with Wine[3] (the non-emulator for Windows on non-Windows platforms). Well, if NSIS doesn't play well with Wine, maybe we should take a look at MSI packages instead. Thanks, - -chris [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nullsoft_Scriptable_Install_System [2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Installer [3] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wine_(software) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - https://www.enigmail.net/ iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEMmKgYcQvxMe7tcJcHPApP6U8pFgFAlvA4iYACgkQHPApP6U8 pFiN/BAAn6k8sTKs8QrodVMLNWlwh0+oEQUePv1FxYNK7PmJsbvGtYujcouZ2PP+ sAmB3sbfnM8e3O+UYUqDhsjBA0dZOS3xOW9NjY0NXYbg/HlUn3/aVfcFybYjk/8w wJ8l8P/VvIAC3Gc0J+xawkuII56QjP1QX2QAEsOHAVJs2lYq6lx+S00m2jGeI4WD 3hvMSBpsSw5bOo08ksUFfQamjQeH4Lt8+qFjzs6K4QO0ISPWCKuOJl6pLqKbd/jh C/Ea92GQOx2stLfHkyOhtAdhigCZGZ8Fmq8Mg4cuvOWqaMuZkAdq4HsnyQcfjCmI bR0F48ewyqOHNvmEk0B71q46QsIVupLR4YoZrxVWRmNyuDy6oQXkhNNYSRe4wOYX soE6gOLpHJpwBrJHfXJQ1FaAgmp0H1ZMQ6yTjYnwO91wuyrOgdITcSQYVyCLTvtb gYDhbnCLfvEyW1WDKY7j6TgLeb/rXFBHSssmGbOpDtV4A/AAk6RvvRVut98HfmMC +kUSbfxKmX6brhq9ngM6PiOrVCq06MvfjFJwSssAPLsz7vJk/CIiCLdU97cupt1y ZajT7dxGYjXsU+6dOQ8RZbCrYPSVyc76e6duDoK5xG1yZkPskttgQJ/vrVq/UPQn f0Uz77DLZiFRQi/P/BhJk0jnvgangvoCRYE8CBfuwPR+XnJI+pY= =qXBy -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
