Description
We have developed a setup bootstrapper for Windows Installer Installations. Now we bring this project Open Source Platform under GPL. Due to the fact i got no experience with GetACoder, i will launch this small project. Larger ones will follow.
Project description: The bootstrapper is a C++/MFC application witch typically compiles to setup.exe. The bootstrapper has a Wizard (Dialog/Page) interface for the steps in the bootstrapping process.
Your Work: Two bootstrappers exists: The new GPL licensed one, and a old one for our internal projects. You should bring parts of the internal one to the new GPL bootstrapper. The new one has a cleaner class design.
- .NET Framework installer (code exists in old bootstrapper) - SQL Server Express installer (code exists in old bootstrapper) - blending of RTF files during install for user training / advertising (code exists)
By integrating this code in the new bootstrapper you should provide a new class CWizardPageProgress derived from CWizardPage (existing base class for wizard pages) and bring the progress reporting to a cleaner interface. Based on this new class and the library functions for .NET framework install and SQL Server install you should implement a prerequisite page and a install progress page in the Demo Installer in the project.
Artwork for the wizard pages in the demo project will be provided by us.
Project Roadmap: - study the existing code we provide to you. - make a proposal for the class design of CWizardPageProgress - integrate the features - clean up project - test the bootstrapper with the bootstrapper demo Tools needed: - Visual Studio 2008 - Subversion Access (AnkhSVN or Tortorize...)
Requirements and skills: - C++ - MFC - Clean class design, clean coding
Guessed time if we implement this: 4-8 Hours. Feel free to ask everything you want before you make a bid.

All coders, thank you for your immediate responses and bids. I was asked for more project details, and i try to provide them.
First of all, there aren't many setup bootstrappers out there. You can easily inform about bootstrappers in general by googling "setup bootstrapper". Many projects are under a open source license like GPL, you can download and study the code for free. Check the big open source hosters like SourceForge, Code Project, CodePlex, Google Code and so on.
One important thing concerning your code: Your work will be made public available via GPL license, and we hold the proprietary license rights of it. If you don't want, that your code become public available, don't bid! Every GPL licensed software must be public available according to the license terms. There is no discuss about that.
On the other hand, it's allowed for you and any other to use this code in any project following the license terms of GPL for free. Other projects, not under GPL can buy a (cheap) license from us.
After we started to work on this project, you have to register on the open source community we are hosting this project (for free). Then you get access to the code repository via SVN and can check out a working copy of the project.
I've uploaded some class declarations that you can see where to integrate this new functions in.

The bigger view of bootstrapping a MSI installation: The aim of this bootstrapper is not to install the .NET Framework. It installs an application which uses the .NET Framework. And as a prerequisite for the application it is eventually necessary to update the .NET Framework or install an SQL Server
Installation of .NET Framework and SQL Server Express is a (possible but non necessary) part of the Installation (bootstrapping) of a regular application. The real application installer will be a MSI (windows installer) package. The bootstrapper checks the prerequisites of the application installer, installs and updates the missing components and starts the application installer. This process is called bootstrapping.
Why is this done? To keep the real application installer maintainable and small. And because MSI packages can't install some prerequisites itself.
