    This is in the middle of a single script command to copy *.WMF files to install. We...

    Re: Issues with long path names

    Hi!

    The just released 5710 update didn't seem to fix this - I just want to be sure this is still outstanding?

    Thanks!

    Re: Issues with long path names

    Hi,

    We had to release with the existing code.

    If the next official SB build is coming reasonably soon, we can wait.

    Thanks,
    Tom H.

    P.S. I hope you had a great vacation!

    If it doesn't mess you up, that would be great.

    Please let me know if there is anything else to watch for since this wouldn't be an official release...

    Re: Issues with long path names

    Hi Friedrich,

    Any news on this? We're getting ready to do a release, so I'm being asked whether we'll have an updated SB to build the installs.

    Thanks!

    Any indication when 'soon' might be?

    I know, I know... later than 'now', but before 'later'.:p

    Links in RTF viewer

    Hi!

    Is there a way for the SB10 RTF file viewer to handle http links? The links are valid in WordPad, and worked in the older WISE installers, but display in SB10 as '<mylink>' and aren't...

    Friedrich,

    Thanks for looking into it! I understand the overall 260 limit, the kicker was having a segment of the path be so long even if the total was valid. My testers report that somewhere...

    Issues with long path names

    We recently had a request to accommodate very long path names in our programs. In testing, we have run into a couple of issues with SB10 when trying to install into those folders with long...

    Re: warning GEN1116

    Hi Friedrich,

    I got this message as well, although in my case the validation said it detected and fixed 11 issues.

    Just curious -- what is it really doing?

    Thanks,

    A little more on this.

    I've added some scripting to ensure that the required folder is appended to the path, but there doesn't seem to be any way to get the dialog to reinitialize or display the...

    Install target IP address

    Friedrich,

    I searched the forum and found a response from you that SB didn't have a built-in method to get the IP address of the machine where an install is running, but that was back in 2010.

    Thanks - I'll try using the 2nd option to see if I can detect the mapped drive issue.

    Re: Mapped drives, drive type and UNC in SB7

    That's a real catch-22 there -- I can't detect the mapped drive to get the UNC and only the UNC will work, eh? Thanks for the explanation, though.
