This software enables the creation or modification of MSI-based installers using an XML-like script. It facilitates automated builds such as NMAKE, ANT, NANT builds, etc. It is suitable for all users with support from a large community of over 500 members.
As a software review, I would highly recommend this tool written by a Microsoft MVP for creating or updating MSI (Windows Installer) based installers. With its user-friendly interface, one can easily create installers for files, registry, and other components using an XML-like script.
What's great about this tool is its command-line support, making it ideal for use in unattended builds such as NMAKE, ANT, and NANT builds. This feature enables users to automate the installation process and save time.
Furthermore, this software builds a detailed HTML report by default, complete with a "file verify" button. This report is useful for tracking changes and ensuring the integrity of the installation package.
Even beginners can use this tool with ease, but for advanced users, it offers the flexibility to define commonly used processes once and reuse them in multiple projects, saving time and effort.
This software also comes with extensive documentation and a large user group with over 500 members, which provides ample support in case of any issues.
Additionally, it has a useful MSI compare or disassemble tool that generates MAKEMSI output, which is a great alternative for automating tasks usually done manually with ORCA.
Finally, this tool has a framework for easy MSM (merge module) and CUB (MSI validation suite) building, making it a complete package for any software developer or installer. I highly recommend this tool to anyone looking for a powerful and efficient installer creation software.
