Attachment: script

Script I used to install onto all our win slaves.

Successful

(also removed script when I was done)

Comment 2

[Justin Wood (:Callek)]

err when verifying I noticed that my .reg file that was generated was malformed and part of the reg values were not stored right... fixing now.

Comment 3

Attachment: script v2

issue was I used |REG_DWORD| and |REG_BINARY| instead of |dword| and |hex| respectively for the .reg generation

Comment 4

[Justin Wood (:Callek)]

done all but cn-sea-qm-win2k3-01 for the fixup reg (that slave is currently in a reboot cycle running chkdisk)

Comment 5

[Justin Wood (:Callek)]

and now done on that slave.

Comment 6

[Justin Wood (:Callek)]

Not quite done, really.... we had a problem of the InstallPath not actually being set in reg, (\ was being treated as an escape char in the path when trying to set)

Fixed with the following batch on all win slaves:
REGEDIT4

; @ECHO OFF
; CLS
; REGEDIT.EXE /S "%~f0"
; EXIT

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\DirectX\Microsoft DirectX SDK (June 2010)]
"InstallPath"="d:\\sdks\\dx10"
