== Fusion build tools ==

Fusion build tools is a zip file containing the build.xml and associated build tools required to "re-compile" fusionSF.js and fusionSF-compressed.js on a production fusion installation.

Use the Fusion build tools if you have made patches and/or modifications to your fusion installation, and you need to build a new fusionSF.js and/or fusionSF-compressed.js

In order to use the Fusion build tools, you need to have [http://ant.apache.org Apache Ant] installed.

 * TBA
   * Size: TBD bytes
   * md5: TBD

To use the Fusion build tools, extract the zip file contents into your fusion directory and navigate to this directory in the command prompt and execute the following command:

{{{
ant compress
}}}

This will re-build fusionSF.js and fusionSF-compressed.js under fusion\lib

Due to the default installation location (under Program Files), you may need to do this under a UAC-elevated command prompt or fix the directory permissions so that normal users can create/modify files.

== Windows Compatibility ==

'''IMPORTANT: ''' MapGuide Open Source 2.6 and newer is not supported on Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 in either IIS or Apache configurations. [http://trac.osgeo.org/mapguide/wiki/Release/2.5/Notes MapGuide Open Source 2.5] is the last release to support Windows XP and Windows Server 2003

||||32-bit||64-bit||
||Windows Vista||Maybe+||Maybe+||
||Windows 7||Yes||Yes||
||Windows Server 2008||Yes+||Yes+||
||Windows Server 2008 R2||N/A||Yes||
||Windows 8||Yes1||Yes1||
||Windows Server 2012||N/A||Yes1||
||Windows 8.1||Maybe1||Maybe1||

+ Not tested, but similar enough to Windows 7 to theoretically work

* IIS configuration will probably not work. Apache config should work due to its self-contained nature

1 IIS/.Net successfully tested on Windows 8 64-bit and Windows Server 2012. Windows 8 32-bit is similar enough to theoretically work. Apache config untested

Windows RT (ie. Windows 8 on ARM devices) is not a supported platform for installing MapGuide Open Source

== Installer Notes ==

 * You cannot use the windows installer to '''in-place''' upgrade an existing MapGuide Open Source 2.6 installation, you cannot have 2.6 and 2.6.1 installed side-by-side with the windows installer and you must uninstall 2.6 before installing 2.6.1. Use the InstantSetup bundle if side-by-side installs are required. Be sure to back up any data and applications before carrying out the new installation.
 * On linux, the install path is {{{/usr/local/mapguideopensource-2.6.1}}} and the FDO install path is {{{/usr/local/fdo-3.9.0}}}. You must uninstall 2.6 before installing 2.6.1. Be sure to back up any data and applications before carrying out the new installation.
