View Full Version : Some Questions

Just started with SB 6.9 and I have some questions:

- I can select files in "Files and folders" but how can I select/add a sub-folder?
- If I use two languages say English and German and English is default, I can select
the dialog for a License agreement text but that wil always be for the German language.
How can I switch between these languages? If I add another "License agreement" so that
I have two license agreements (each in another language) the second one will also be for German...
I would expect a sort of "master switch" to switch between languages.
- Suppose I want to code-sign more than one executable (in the same install) how can I do that?
- Suppose my executable for English is different than the executable for German, can I install the right
executable

Any help appreciated.
Regards
Nick

SB69 is not supported any longer, so I refer to SB7 here.

In the "Files and Folders" Visualizer, just press F1 to open the online
help ;-) And I would suggest to read the "Learning SetupBuilder Part 1"
manual. It comes with very HowTo information.

You have several different options. You can "drag and drop" from the upper
left list (files/folders on your machine) to the lower left list (target
machine list).

And there is even more. You can use wildcards (include and exclude) with a
"recurse subfolders" option enabled to add all files and folders
recursively.

Yes, this "master switch" is available. In the "General Information"
Properties, enable the "Show Language" dialog.

The text resources are there to handle this. Enable, say, the English and
German languages. Then go to the "Text and Messages" Visualizer, select
Dialog Text -> License Agreement and define your English and German license
agreements (see attached screenshot). The installer will do all the dirty
work for you.

Use multiple "#code-sign application..." compiler directive for the
individual executables. In SB7, you can use a single "#code-sign
application..." directive because wildcards are supported!

Yes. See "Languages" Condition in the Files Properties (attached
screenshot). But you have again several options. You can also do it from
the script.

Hope this helps.

I have attached a small .sb7 project to demonstrate how to display the
"License Agreement" in English or German.

Nick,

BTW, I checked this and you have a valid SB subscription. So you can
upgrade to SB7 free-of-charge. The access information can be found in your
Subscription Notifications.

I would strongly suggest to update to SB7!

Friedrich,

Can I download a new SB7 version?
I have no projects yet that I use so I can't loose anything
and I lost the Subscription Notifications.
I will follow your suggestion and start with the new version.
Please e-mail me a link.

Yes, you are entitled to download SB6 and SB7.

BTW, you receive a subscription notification (email subject: SetupBuilder
Subscription Program) whenever a new SB version becomes available (you have
received at least 11 notifications for SB7 during the last 12 months).
We'll resend it to you in a minute.

Anyway I found them now, thanks!
