wierd text inserted in files

I 'ported' my 1.x installer to 2b4 and now to 2RC2 and am seeing a very wired phenomenon.
I have a bunch of SQL files i have inserted into the installer to create a database at runtime, these files are put in using
!insertmacro MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_EXTRACT "file.sql"

and Reserved using
ReserveFile "file.sql"

and at runtime I read them from the plugins directory.

during runtime i find the sql's fail to execute, if i look through the temp dirs to see the file extracted live from the installer I see that the last 2 lines have this text inserted in them.
[Settings]
RTL=0

I'm seeing that out of all the text files i have in the installer (inserted in the same way), a few sql's, a few vbs's and also a bunch of ini's (for custom dialogs), only the ini's don't get this string in them, all other 'non installer specific files' seem to have those two lines.

what am I doing wrong? is there a bug?

thanks,
A

The same thing has happened to me - only one file (a text file) was affected and it has only happened once so far. I was beginning to think I'd imagined it.

As far as I remember the same two lines were added to the end of the file.

That's what MUI_INSTALLOPTIONS_EXTRACT do, it extracts INI files for InstallOptions into the plugin directory and adds that string.

This macro is, as the name says, designed for InstallOptions.

If you want to put something else in the plug-ins folder use InitPluginsDir and File with $PLUGINSDIR.

Perhaps this new feature could be mentioned in the MUI ReadMe ?

This macro has always been designed to extract InstallOptions INI files and was never intented for anything else.
