Files listed in external text-file instead of listing in an section
Hello,
from an old InstallShield installer I have got a text-file, which gives information, how files should be installed, renamed, etc. under certain conditions.
We want to use this technique with nsis. So it's neccesary to load a configfile as txt or xml.
The configfile looks something like this:
myfile.exe *instdir n o
filename.dll *instdir y k
[...]
The first String is the filename, the second String is the destinationpath, the next Strings are the conditions.
Normally the fileentries are hardcoded in a section of the nsis-script. We want these entries to be dynamic. Therefor we need to know, if it is possible to create the filelist for a section dynamically out of an external file?
We want to use this technique to minimize the time for configuration.
Is there any documentation or examplecode available, which demonstrates this?
Bye, Tobias :)
