Override [OUTPUTDIR]

[bagofgloom]

I am trying to override the [OUTPUTDIR] using a constant. It works correctly when I am copying files but it will not put my installer or htm in the correct folder. Just puts it in the default directory.

My Default [OUTPUTDIR] is Z:\

My override is Z:\[PROJECTNAME]

I am copying one file PROJECTNAME.ini using [OUTPUTDIR]\PROJECTNAME.ini and it works correctly but my exe and htm are never in this folder. Both are in the default Z:\

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Hello,

The attached screenshot from the online manual should help.

This limits our ability to use one SetupBuilder project to do all our QA builds. We have five QA builds. The only difference between the five SetupBuilder projects that I have not been able to workout is the output directory. I am maintaining/using five SetupBuilder projects when I could be using one.

If the output directory cannot be overriden then I am forced to use multiple SB projects even if the project is identical except the output directory. Is it possible to move the *.exe after it has been created?

You have several different options here. The "Releases" feature is one of them. But I would use "#copy file(s)" after script compilation.

Yes, you can use the #copy file(s) directive to move the .exe, .htm, .etc.

Don't forget to mark the "Process after script compilation" checkbox.
