Installer with supplying parameter

[Frederic Luc]

Hi,

I have created an installer with InnoSetup but 3 values can be different on which machine i launch my installer. For exemple the name of the server, the name of the share (exactly 4 information can move).

I have try to do this with an include
include "MyInit_File.iss"

But the Installer will not read in this file every time i change and excute my exe file.

Do you have an idea how to do this ?

Thanks forward

Best regards

Include works at compile time, not run-time. If you need to do configuration at setup runtime, you will have to write some [Code] to do it.

If nobody uses it, there's a reason.

Ok, thanks for your reply.

you will have to write some [Code] to do it. --> what you think, i must create a file that contain the wished values (name of server, name of share), and for the [code] part, i must open the file and search this value ?

I can also read the value in my personal ini file, and from the procedure CurStepChanged my variable have been well informed, but how then can i use this variable for example in InitializeSetup, Run, Registry and Files sections ?

how i define Sourcedir with the value contain in my inifile ?

Thanks forward
