    Description

      We need a "moxi-setup.exe" for windows. So, we need yet another additional setup.exe that will be output from wallace. This should package up and install moxi.exe, its required DLL's, and potentially any technical docs that may be related into a separate setup.exe.

      The "northscale server setup.exe", however, also keeps its own 'embedded' moxi.exe.

      Related, see MB-1815, where a 'standalone moxi' will need to become an NT service. When MB-1815 is done, the moxi-setup.exe will also need to register/unregister that NT service.

      Subject: RE: Didn't we port the stand alone moxi to windows?

      Trond did port moxi to win32. But, there's no separate installshield project for a standalone moxi setup.exe, and no work on that has been started. It should be pretty straightforward for Dmitry to extend wallace to provide that, and we should understand his task plate.

      Currently, on windows moxi is comprised of an executable (moxi.exe) plus 2 required DLL's (pthreadGC2.dll and libcurl-4.dll). Those DLL's can probably be compiled into a moxi.exe statically, to result in a single *.exe, too, if we want that.

      To 'productize' moxi to be more standalone-friendly for windows, we might need to make it into an NT service, but that can probably be later.
