File Exists at compile time
I found a thread here

http://forums.winamp.com/showthread....ht=file+exists

but didn't quite understand it.

I'm trying to do the following.

The installer is set up for several clients. Most of the files are in a general directory. A few, if they are necessary are in a client specific directory. Some clients may need these specific files, others not. A !define tells the compiler which client the installer is being written for.

What I would like to do is, at compile time, if a file exists in a client specific directory, use it, otherwise get the file from a general directory.

Thanks.

There is no need to start a new topic.

As has been said before, you have to create an application that writes a header file depending on the status of your files.
