Re: [libvirt] Experimental 32-bit windows libvirt installer

?Hi Justin, I have made a MSI/EXE installer with these libs also for my personal use. I don't know if it can help. I think it could be a good idea to include C# bindings in the installer, but for that, I have to work on the GAC inscription of the bindings... I'll take a look on your installer, and give a return. Nice to see that anyway, I have searched for it a year ago ;) Arnaud -------------------------------------------------- From: "Justin Clift" <jclift(a)redhat.com&gt; Sent: Sunday, November 14, 2010 3:18 PM To: <libvir-list(a)redhat.com&gt; Cc: "Matthias Bolte" <matthias.bolte(a)googlemail.com>; <arnaud.champion(a)devatom.fr&gt; Subject: Experimental 32-bit windows libvirt installer > Hi all, > > If people have time to try out a tentative first "Libvirt Windows > Installer", it's > online here: > > http://libvirt.org/sources/win32_experimental/Libvirt-0.8.5-0.exe > > At the moment it includes the libvirt development headers and libraries > for compiling against, plus the virsh shell with it's needed > dependencies, > and that's about it. > > It's been compiled on Windows 7 x86_64, but (in theory) might also work > on earlier windows versions like Vista and XP.
