[llvm-dev] Windows installer

[Rinaldini Julien via llvm-dev]

Hi,

Is there any documentation on how the Windows installer available at http://llvm.org/builds/ is generated ?
I’m trying to do it myself, but I can’t find any information on this.

Cheers,
Julien

Assuming that you use the ninja build system. Just install nsis2
(http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page) and make sure "nsis" command
is in your %PATH% , calling ninja package will create the installer.

And if you want to build it exactly like the official snapshots, look
at the script in utils/release/build_llvm_package.bat
