Building the Nmap Installer for Windows
                   =======================================


I. ZENMAP BUILD DEPENDENCIES

Here are the build dependencies for Zenmap and where to get them.  The
latest known tested versions are listed here, but I usually start by
grabbing the latest version available on the sites rather than these
known-good versions.

GTK+ All-in-one bundle
  o http://www.gtk.org/download-windows.html
  o Tested: gtk+=bundle_2.14.7-20090119_win32.zip
  o Also tried the more recent gtk+-bundle_2.16.6-20091013_win32.zip,
    but while that worked on Windows 7, I got DLL errors when I tried
    to run Zenmap on Windows XP.  It basically failed to load:
    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "zenmap", line 89, in <module>
    File "zenmapGUI\App.pyo", line 113, in <module>
    File "gtk\__init__.pyo", line 48, in <module>
    File "gtk\_gtk.pyo", line 12, in <module>
    File "gtk\_gtk.pyo", line 10, in __load
    ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified procedure could not be found.
Python
  o http://www.python.org/download
  o Tested: python-2.6.4.msi
PyGTK
  o http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/pygtk
  o Tested: pygtk-2.12.1-3.win32-py2.6.exe
PyCairo
  o http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/pycairo
  o Tested: pycairo-1.4.12-2.win32-py2.6.exe
PyGObject
  o http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/pygobject
  o pygobject-2.14.2-2.win32-py2.6.exe
Py2exe (0.6.9) - http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/py2exe
  o py2exe-0.6.9.win32-py2.6.exe
Be sure to grab the PyGTK, PyCairo, etc. for Python 2.6!

The GTK all-in-one bundle is a zip file.  Unzip it into the directory
c:\GTK.  The other components have installers-using the default
install directories is important, especially for Python (C:\Python26)
and GTK (C:\GTK).  See Section IV if you must change the directories.

You may need to set your Windows $PATH so that it can find the GTK
DLLs while py2exe is doing its thing.  On Windows 7 x64, I did this as
follows:
 o Open control panel, search for "environment variables", click on
   "Edit the system environment variables", which opens the "System
   Properties" dialogue.  Select the "Advanced" tab then click the
   "Environment Variables" button.  Add ";C:\GTK\bin" to the end of
   the user PATH variable.

After installing GTK, create C:\GTK\etc\gtk-2.0\gtkrc with the
contents:
gtk-theme-name = "MS-Windows"

II. OTHER REQUIREMENTS

You'll need Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 for compilation.
Directions for obtaining those are at:
http://nmap.org/install/inst-windows.html#inst-win-source

You'll also need Cygwin installed in order to build the Nmap installer (not
required for normal compiling).  You'll find it at http://www.cygwin.com

And last, you'll need the Nullsoft Scriptable Install System installed.  You
can download if from http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Download  (Version
2.45 tested)


III. BUILDING

With all of the requirements and dependencies installed, open up a Cygwin
shell and go to the mswin32 directory in the Nmap directory and type "make".
This may take several minutes, and will create an executable installer and a
zip archive (nmap-<version>-setup.exe and nmap-<version>-win32.zip).


IV. INSTALLATION PATHS / PROBLEMS

If you have Python installed to a directory other than the default mentioned
above, then you need to edit the copy_and_compile.bat file under
zenmap/install_scripts/windows and change the "set PythonEXE" line with your
installed directory.

If you have GTK installed to a different directory, follow the same directions
as for Python, but edit the "set GTKDir" line.
