Was file installed?

[oclassen]

I need to add an install file that goes with a piece of equipment my program controls, and then run the program if it is a new installation. I will only add the file if it is newer that one currently installed. Is there a way to tell if in fact the file was actually installed or if it was skipped because it was not a new file?

Thanks,
Frank

Frank,

This is a *very* good question. If a file is skipped then the installer does not set the %ERRORCODE% variable. And it also does not set the %ERRORCODE% variable if a file is installed or overwritten.

This is on the drawing board now. Very good point!

Thanks,

Thanks Friedrich. It never fails, no matter how much you put into a program, the users will find a totally different way of looking at things.

Frank,

Absolutely

I think this functionality will be available in the next build (SetupBuilder 5.5).
