Changed the build to use /MD flag so that DDL version of C runtime is used.
To make sure MariaDB is always runnable on target system, include
redistributable CRT libraries into installer.
For MSI package, use Microsoft's merge modules.
For ZIP use "applocal" approach,i.e place redistributable dlls
into the bin directory of the package(via InstallRequiredSystemLibraries
cmake module) The space overhead of libraries in negligible, ~ 3MB unpacked.
There are 2 cases, where we still link C runtime statically
- Upgrade wizard, it uses MFC, and we link statically to avoid
redistribute also whole MFC (for this single application, does not
make much sense).
- MSI installer's custom action dll wixca.dll.Here, we need static link
so that MSI won't fail on a target system that does not have VC++2015
runtime already installed.
- FIND_PROGRAM (signtool) will now get a hint about location of signtool.exe (Windows SDK)
- Targets "package" or "msi" will now fail, l if signing is requested but does not work
(e.g invalid certificate)
- During install, do not re-sign binaries, if they are already signed.
- Preserve mysqld_error.h timestamp whenever possible. This helps avoiding situations
where the whole server is rebuilt, whenever comp_err.exe changes (for example after code
signing, or also after a minor fix in mysys)
- Fix Wix error in UpgradeVersion, if patch part of the version is 0.
The general technique to generate MSI using CMake is taken from MySQL 5.5
Additional features not present in 5.5 installer :
-optionally creating a new database
(as Windows service), using new mysql_install_db.exe to do the job
- optional upgrade of existing services from old MySQL or Maria installation.
This work is actually done by the upgrade wizard that is launched at the
end of installation.
