0001 Generating the windows installer *.msi
0002 --------------------------------------
0003
0004 Rewritten in December 2016
0005
0006 Since kajongg now works with Python3, the windows version
0007 will not use Python2 anymore.
0008
0009 My setup:
0010 - host system is ubuntu 16.10 64bit
0011 - virtualbox guest with windows 7 32bit
0012 - guest has only Python3.5.2
0013
0014 on the linux host:
0015 - cd kajongg/src
0016 - ./winprep.py # generates a directory "share" with files to be installed
0017
0018 in the windows guest:
0019 - install Python3.5
0020 - put Python3.5/scripts and Python3.5/DLLs into PATH
0021 - pip3 install --upgrade pip
0022 - pip3 install cx_freeze
0023 - pip3 install pyqt
0024 - pip3 install twisted
0025 - pip3 install sip
0026 - install pywin32 (right now pip does not offer a 32bit version for Python 3.5, download from sourceforge)
0027 - install Visual Studio 2015 Community Edition
0028 - setup a shared directory (visible for host and guest) "kajongg": a working copy of the git repository
0029 - cd kajongg/src
0030 - python kajongg.py must work
0031 - python setup.py bdist_msi
0032
0033 the result is in kajongg/src/dist
