Creating a batch file

Is there a way to let setup builder create a batch file? I can create an ini file but I can't seem to create a batch file.

Thanks

Michel

Michel,

Yes, no problem. Just use the "Handle Text File Operations..." script function.

Does this help?

Well I was looking at this function when I posted. But I need to create a batch file with more then 50 lines. Do I need to call this function 50 times then? or is there a way to create the tekst from the batch file like the ini Contents: ?


And does this function append when calling the same file?

Line = 0 to append, this I found :)

Yes, in this case you have to call the function 50 times.

Do you really have to create the "batch" at runtime? What task does the batch perform?

I don't really need to add 50 lines. I guess I could create and include the batch file first and then replace some lines by runtime.

Example:

set DLC=%Variable%
set PROPATH=%Variable%
set TEMPDIR=%Variable%
set STARTUP_DIR=%Variable%
set PF_FILE=%STARTUP_DIR%\Default.pf
set INI_FILE=%STARTUP_DIR%\Progress.ini
set DB_DIR=%Variable%
set PDBNAME=%Variable%
set SDBNAME=%Variable%
set DBHOST=%Variable%

Michel,

Aha, I see. We'll check if it is possible to add a new text function to one of the next builds that can handle multiple-lines in one call.

Thanks,
Friedrich

Thank you for the quick reply!

Michel

You are very welcome!
