Adding appbroker to the setup

[NewsArchive]

Hi Friedrich,

You are the best!!
This is exactly what I need, thank you so much!
I will test this script soon and will let you know when I'm done.

Is it also possible that I include some files of my own, which also have
to be installed?

Best regards,
Jeffrey

Absolutely no problem. At the moment, the "SV_Deploy_AppBroker.sbi" script
includes the deployment logic that is required to install the Clarion
Application Broker.

I would suggest to add your own files (and other items) to the main .sbp
project. But of course, you can also modify "SV_Deploy_AppBroker.sbi"
directly and add files of your own, registry items, etc. Ideas for future
enhancements: some code to update an existing app broker installation (stop
broker, update files, restart broker). All this can be done automatically
with SetupBuilder quietly behind the scenes.

Thanks very much!!!!

Two questions:

1) The login username and password. Can I get this info from the current
user that is installing my setup?

2) Do you know if I add the include VC2013 runtime is the same that I
run ClaRunExtsetup.exe? (If I don´t run this setup, the global
communication extension does not work and I can´t send emails).

Yes, you can display a dialog and let the current user enter his login name
and password. If you need help with this, please let me know.

If "ClaRunExtsetup.exe" also installs a VC++2013 redistributable then it's
the same one.

Just use the Redistributable Manager...

Hi Friedrich,

At this moment, I have to make a complete full proof Setup for my H5
App, including the installation of the SV AppBroker.
So I'm very happy that you have made the "SV_Deploy_AppBroker.sbi"
script, thank you again!

Can you also please help me with this:
"update an existing app broker installation (stop broker, update files,
restart broker)."
I need this when my customer is already running the AppBroker, for
example, when I come with a new update of our H5 App, or when there is a
new update of the SV AppBroker.

I don't want to use the SV Setup file of the AppBroker, because SV
installs the AppBroker service under SYSTEM, which gives a problem with
printing etc. I want to use your script for new installs, but also for
update installs.

Thank you very much!

Best regards,
Jeffrey

I'll have to play with this and get back to you...
