Description
When building mapguide from source, the resulting build output is not immediately usable. The server you can run straight away, but the web extensions require a whole lot of manual setup as the web extension config files are templated with lot of placeholder tokens (which the installer would substitute in).
What we really need is an instant-config utility that auto-configures your web extensions based on the current output directory of the web extensions.
This would greatly speed up the code-test-debug cycle as we no longer need to build/run the installer as a means of getting a functional web extensions component for your freshly built binaries.
As a side-benefit, such a tool would allow for non-standard installation that can be easily set up.
