xInstall (Create your own Setup) - Opensource

Post by Winduff »

Good evening,

after I released this program in german- quite successfully - I have now made it multilangul ;-)

The program is a setup-designer tool, with the following main features:
  • 1-File-Installation Files for the Web
    Only 60KB Overhead
    Shortcuts
    Automatic deinstallation
    Complete folderinclude
    License and Readme options
    Save / load projects
Screenshot of the installer (german):

Image

The language files can be edited, in the installfolder xInstall\lang_ext\
I would be pleased, if someone could translate the file into french (or other languages ;-) )

I hope this version is bugfree! If you should find a bug, please use the "report bug" function in the menu "help".

Thanks and have fun!

My windows XP SP2 Danish is on drive F.

I found the bug! And its SERIOUS. It tries to install at c:\programme. First of all; the programme dir doesnt exist. This is not the normal "programs" dir. And it varies for different windows languages.

Even though its not supposed to install it there, it should actually create the path.

But you better select the NORMAL programs dir (I know you can. You found the right startmenu directory!)


Another little thing; in the startmenu the link is named "xInstall.exe" wich it shouldnt be named.


For the use of the installer;
%%PROGRAMFILES%%\Orangeworks\tracie
This is in the installation path (wich is in 2 words!), and in the end installer it comes out as C:\Programme\\Orangeworks\tracie T

where it SHOULD come out as: F:\Programmer\Orangeworks\tracie T

This is probably a language releated issue, but it should REALLY be fixed!

Ok the uninstaller for my proggie that i installed was in german! and the uninstall.exe didnt get deleted.
The uninstaller also flashed a dos console, and this could easily get avoided too. And a last thing; the shortcut didnt get deleted either!


If you could fix this stuff, its a quite decent installer!
(And if you could do something fancy, like adding skin support; it would be REALLY decent :d)

Thank you, I will try to learn from it.
If it has the things I was looking for.
I like logic, hence I dislike humans but love computers.
