WiseScript Editor Reference
Always
The new file always replaces the old file.
Never
The file never overwrites an existing file. Select this for files that should be
installed if they are not present, but that might be customized by the end user
and should therefore not be replaced on re-installation (example: configuration
files).
Check File
The existing file is replaced only if the requirements you set in File Version and
File Date/Time are true.
Doesn't Matter
Select this option if only one of the requirements, File Version or File
Date/Time, must be fulfilled to replace the existing file.
Same or Older
For File Version, this replaces the existing file if it has a version resource
that is the same as or older than the new file. If the existing file lacks a
version resource, it is not replaced.
For File Date/Time, this replaces the existing file if its modification date
and time are the same as or older than the new file.
Older
For File Version, this replaces the existing file if it has a version resource
that is older than the new file. If the existing file lacks a version resource, it
is not replaced.
For File Date/Time, this replaces the existing file if its modification date
and time are older than the new file.
Retain Duplicates in Path
By default, version checking removes existing copies of .DLLs that are found in the
path list. To suppress this feature, mark this check box.
The sample script FTPCopy.wse uses this action. For details on sample scripts, see
ScriptHelp.htm in the Samples subdirectory of this product's installation directory.
Directories are created when files are installed to them. Use this action only to create an
empty directory on the destination computer.
When a WiseScript is called by a Windows Installer installation, you also can create a
directory on the Features or Components tabs of Setup Editor in Windows Installer
Editor.
Note
When a WiseScript is called by a Windows Installer installation, the Windows Installer
installation does not recognize changes that the WiseScript makes to the destination
computer and will not uninstall them. Therefore, you must provide a way to uninstall or
repair such changes. See Uninstalling Changes Made by a WiseScript in the Windows
Installer Editor Help.
