Hi People,


Was the original (v1.0 RC2) Codeblocks windows installer open source? and what was it's name?

i.e. I used to use a commercial installer called InstallShield around 2000 for work.

I've just accidentally found the answer, after re-building 8.02 ansi with wxWidgets-2.8.12 so it will work
with a "real" Windows 98se, I found myself staring at the un-install icon and clicked it. On the dialog box I saw
the text "Nullsoft  Install System" so I tried the same thing on v1.0 RC2 and soon came across "Inno Setup installer"
