cabwiz

by Tobias Bieniek

cabwiz is a drop-in replacement for the proprietary cabwiz.exe application of Microsoft. It reads basic INF files like cabwiz.exe does and transforms the data into metadata for the Pocket PC installer.

Dependencies

The cabwiz script relies on

• lcab (https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lcab/) and
• python (http://www.python.org/)

cabwiz was developed and tested with python 2.7.

Usage

  cabwiz <inf-file> [/dest <dest-dir>] [/err <err-file>] [/cpu <cpu-type>] [/platform <platform-name>] [/v]
   
  inf-file       INF source file to use
  dest-dir       absolute dest dir for CAB files
  err-file       error file
  cpu-type       cpu types to support in the INF file
  platform-name  the name of the platform to support in the INF file
  v              verbose output

err-file, cpu-type and platform-name aren't supported yet. cpu-type however is appended to the output filename.
