NOT PART OF BUILD. More updates to get a working CAB file packaging and signing working for control for hosting plugins

embedding/browser/activex/src/pluginhostctrl/cab/README.txt

@@ -2,20 +2,42 @@ Want to generate a CAB file for the plugin host control?
 
 First off you need the Cabinet SDK:
 
-http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dncabsdk/html/cabdl.asp
+  http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dncabsdk/html/cabdl.asp
 
-Install that and edit makecab.bat and specify the path to your cabarc.exe program in the CABARCEXE variable.
+And if you want to sign the CAB file you need the signing tool:
+
+  http://msdn.microsoft.com/MSDN-FILES/027/000/219/codesign.exe
+
+More blurb about signing is here:
+
+  http://www.verisign.com/support/tlc/codesign/install.html
+
+Please don't email me questions about signing since I'm just following the
+instructions in the above link.
+
+Install the tools somewhere and edit the line setting the PATH in makecab.bat
+to specify the correct path(s) to these programs.
 
 Next build the pluginhostctrl.dll (e.g. the ReleaseMinSize target) and type
 
   makecab ..\ReleaseMinSize\pluginhostctrl.dll
 
-This produces pluginhostctrl.cab which you can place on a webserver somewhere so IE can download it
-when it's specified in the <OBJECT> tag.
+This produces pluginhostctrl.cab which you can place on a webserver somewhere
+so IE can download it when it's specified in the <OBJECT> tag, e.g.

+    codebase="http://www.blahblah.com/pluginhostctrl.cab#Version=1,0,0,0">
+  </OBJECT>
+
+If you want to sign the CAB file with a certificate, type
+
+  makecab ..\ReleaseMinSize\pluginhostctrl.dll xx.cer xx.key xx.spc
+
+Where xx.* files are your certificate, key and your software publisher
+certificate.
 
 STILL TO DO
 
-  o  Installation from CAB file has not been tested
-  o  Signing the CAB file. I'm still looking for the signing tool. It's
-     in a crypto SDK I think.
-
+  o  Installation from CABs will probably fails until these scripts have been
+     sorted out
