StrCpy $my_ver "X.X.X.X" <-- file version goes here
var /GLOBAL my_ver
StrCpy $my_ver "X.X.X.X" <-- file version goes here
5) Generate installer exe by compiling winpcap-nmap.nsi using the
running the command
makensis winpcap-nmap.nsi
makensis is part of the "Nullsoft Scriptable Install System" at
http://nsis.sourceforge.net/.

6) Give the installer a test, make sure the correct version appears in
the installer's name and in Add/Remove Programs. You may also want to
try installing it when it is already installed or an older version is
installed.

7) Open mswin32/nsis/Nmap.nsi and update the references to the winpcap
installer's name. You should only have to change the version number.
The section you need to look at starts like this:
Section "WinPcap X.X" SecWinPcap

mswin32/lib/ with the new versions inside the package.
8) Download winpcap developer package and replace all files in mswin32/lib/ with the new
versions inside the package
9) Build the Nmap installer. The best way to do this is to run "make" in
the mswin32 directory. This will build Nmap and run makensis for you.
Test the installer. You may want to try it with Nmap already
installed and with different versions installed. Also check that
everything appears in Add/Remove Programs correctly.
9) Recompile Nmap.nsi in the same way as winpcap-nmap.nsi. Test it. You may want to try
it with nmap already installed and with different versions installed. Also check
everything appears in add/remove programs correctly
10) Test nmap functionallity that uses winpcap. (E.G. Raw packet scans/raw packet pings
/traceroute)
10) Test Nmap functionallity that uses WinPcap (raw packet scans, raw
packet pings, traceroute).
11) Sit back and have a cup of coffee, you deserve it :)
