There may be easier ways to do this, but I am using WiX 3.5.
I had to write a small program to invoke the Dependency Walker and parse its
output to automatically discover dependencies of my executable. This is similar
to what you would do with otool on OSX, or ldd on Linux. Then, given the
discovered dependencies the program generates the necessary XML to feed the WiX
toolchain. Code signing the installer is still a manual task.
Here it is --

The wixWrapper is called from my CMake build script.

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?
