Hi Nick, thanks for your updates, have installed them and the delete from file explorer problems have gone away!

However I've found a bug when building for multi-platform installation - the inf generator is not creating the [CopyFiles.ARM] / [CopyFiles.MIPS] etc platform specific sections. The platform specific source disk sections are working OK, but it seems that even though in the file explorer I've got the files correctly set up for each target it creates 1 single CopyFiles section for all files going into the same dir, rather than a section for each platform. This results in a build cab error.

I manually added a [CopyFiles.XXX] section for each platform and updated the [DestinationDirs] and [DefaultInstall.XXX] sections with the ones I added and my installation builds and works fine.

Yes it's a bug

The new beta can create multi-target cabs:
www.aperitto.com/media/downloads/ppcic_2.1_beta.exe

PS: Does the dynamic relative paths suits your needs?
When the project is saved, the relative paths are reconstructed to reflect the new project's position. So, you can rebuild it from the new position, without editing the files.
Also the problem with the default language file is solved?

Hi Nick, can you re-upload the files, when I downloaded it and tried to run the installation got a corrupted setup files error. Tried downloading twice just to be sure, same thing.

Thanks for the fix, figured it was something minor...

Re dynamic path updates on save, works fine! Just one thing I noticed though, there is no option to make the EULA/Readme file have a relative path?

Default language file problem is also fixed. Not sure what caused that - I also completely uninstalled PPCIC before installing the update as I have a feeling something may have got corrupted due to the number of times I've updated the program!

Hi,
Re upload the beta again, didn't notice the timeout error while uploading it last time.

You can add relative EULA/Readme files, simple add them by hand in the languages dialog in the edit box. Simple i don't update all the code to ask the user if wants relative/absolute paths when selects files by open dialog. The same can be done and in CAB Collections and PalmOS Modules.

Regards,
Nick Protopapas

All sorted and working now, thanks.

Also tested EULA relative path feature, works perfectly! Probably should have thought of trying that myself before asking...
