[mkgmap-dev] NSIS Installer

From Minko ligfietser at online.nl on Tue Mar 13 13:38:18 GMT 2012

For my Europe and Germany maps I use the following NSIS template:
http://mijndev.openstreetmap.nl/~ligfietser/diverse/installer_template.nsi

Put this file installer_template.nsi in the resources subdirectory where you run mkgmap.

If you compile the map tiles, it only creates a small install / uninstall.exe file to register the map folder where the tiles are produced into Mapsource / Basecamp. 

If you distribute the map, zip all files from this folder. To install it, just unzip all files to a directory of your choice and run install.exe. If you want to move the map to another location, simply run install.exe again.

See for an example:
