I use advanced installer.

Essentially I use CMake's installer setup to create an installer directory.

For windows, then I use advanced installer "auto update based on all files" to 
pickup every file that's in the directory.
You can automatically via command line arguments, update the version, the 
package file name (I put the version in the filename) as well as edit any 
property in it, and kick off the "create installer"

For linux, I just use CPack.

And just to add to it, if any of this can be scripted or some such to be done 
in an unattended manner.

Subject: Installer Recommendations

Good day all!

I am seeking recommendations for an installer (does not have to be free) 
program that I can use to deploy a Qt Application(5.3) and compiled with VS2010 
to Windows 7.  I am not sure of all the variety of packages out there but am 
generally seeking:


1.)    Can create an .exe or .msi which can install the application at a 
certain location

2.)    Can update a pre-installed version of the application with a new version 
(in some fashion)

3.)    Can check for pre-requisites and either package them or download and 
install them (in some fashion) such as  MSVC++ 2010 Redistributables, etc.

4.)    Can potentially read/write the registry and ask for proper permissions 
to do so

Thoughts?
