Hi, various people have over the years suggested and tried using WiX from Haskell, so I'll leave it to them to comment & possibly compare the two. I'm sure it blows Bamse out of the water as far as functionality goes. --sigbjorn On 4/26/2009 11:00, Justin Bailey wrote:

How does this compare to WiX? I haven't looked at the docs yet ...

Hi,

a new version of Bamse has been uploaded to hackage,

http://hackage.haskell.org/cgi-bin/hackage-scripts/package/bamse

Bamse is a package and application for letting you quickly put together Windows Installers for your software projects/products from within the comforts of Haskell.

New in this release is the support for generating MSIs from your Cabal projects, having them either be built from source or just have them be installed and registered at install-time. i.e., one-click installation of Cabal packages. See examples/Cabal.hs for a worked example of how to bundle up Cabal packages. I've found this functionality a bit useful, hope others do too.

The new version also adds support for handling .NET assemblies.

enjoy --sigbjorn
