[clam-devel] Bug #000002: NetworkEditor binary in Windows does not see plugins

[Dirk Griffioen]

Is this what you meant?

http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Path_Manipulation
> NetworkEditor and Chordata are ready to be installed in windows. Try those 
> installables: http://84.88.76.195/~david.garcia/test/
> There is an only remaining problem i am aware of, but i let it as bug for 
> later reference:
> ----
> Windows NetworkEditor installer installs the plugins but they are not
> available. The problem is that the plugins can not be loaded because
> they depend on dll available in a different location not in the PATH.
>
> Possible solutions:
>
> * The program launcher lnk sets the path before launching the app
> ** My ideal solution, but no idea how to do that in windows. Anyone?
>
> * The installer adds lib/plugins in PATH environment so that the required dlls 
> are available
> ** Adding a nsis library and using it 
> http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Path_Manipulation
>
> * Install the plugins into bin, but requires further filtering in order not to 
> load non-plugin dlls in that directory
> ** Filtering by present symbol is nice but I do not know whether lazy load 
> works in windows.
> ** Filtering by name patters is weak but could work
>
> Does anyone know how i can build an launcher (menu or desktop icon) so that it 
> sets environment vars.
