Searching for INI Values
¾
WiseScript Package Editor only
On the System Search page, you can set up a search for a value in an .INI file on the
destination computer. Use this only to get an .INI value that you know to be a valid path
on the destination computer.
.INI File Terminology
z
An .INI file consists of sections with the following syntax:
[DirectoriesAndFiles]
SrcDir=E:\Application\
SrcFiles=E:\Application\Application.exe, E:\Sample\sample.dll
z
In the section above, DirectoriesAndFiles is an INI Section Name and SrcDir is an
INI Item Name.
z
Item Field refers to the number of the item in a comma-delimited list. Example:
The Item Field for E:\Sample\sample.dll in the section above is 2 because it is the
second item in the list.
To add an .INI file to the search list
1. Select Installation Expert > System Search page.
2. Click Add at the right of the page and select Read INI Value.
The Read INI Value dialog box appears.
3. Complete the dialog box:
Select the directory that contains the .INI file from the directory tree. If the
directory is not displayed, select its parent directory and click New Folder to add
it.
INI File Name, INI Section Name, INI Item Name
Enter the file name of the .INI file to be read, the section that contains the entry
to be read (without the square brackets), and the item name of the entry.
