Compiling NSIS for Solaris 9
Hi all.

I am willing to create a Solaris NSIS binary to create install exe for Win32 from this operating system (a kind of cross compile in fact).

I know that the source code is available, but i'm asking if there are some specific library required for instance that would prevent me to reach my goal.

Thanks in advance.


Welcome to the forum! :D

NSIS doesn't use any special libraries, I don't think there's anything that will prevent you compiling a build for Solaris. The only problem you'll have is compiling the NSIS menu, but that's not crucial to compiling installers. ask Joost about that.

Please post the link here so I can add this to the FAQ and also create a page in The Archive.
