[AD] Deployment

[ Thread Index | Date Index | More lists.liballeg.org/allegro-developers Archives ]


I've been following the latest speedhack and also reding the recent thread about bundling DLLs/static linking. It seems to me that it's quite tricky to deploy an Allegro game and get it right, especially if the target audience doesn't have allegro at all.
Has anyone any ideas on how to make it easier. I was thinking of some sort of simple config file, listing the app's name, exe, resources etc. which could be turned into something suitable by a platform-specific processor. For example, on OSX it could work like the 'fixbundle' tool, on Windows maybe generate a WiX or innosetup script.
What do you think?
Pete
