Install File(S) - Symantec WISESCRIPT EDITOR 7.0 SP2 - FOR NS V1.0 Manual

Install File(s)

WiseScript Editor Reference
Action to insert before the existing line so that subsequent installations find and
edit the active command, not the commented line.
Insert Action
Select the action to be taken when a line is found.
Match Criteria
Select how the line is matched with the text in Search for Text.
Ignore White Space
Mark this to ignore spaces and tab characters.
Case Sensitive
Mark this to make the match case-sensitive.
Make Backup File
Mark this to make a copy of the text file before editing it. A number is appended to
the end of the file name for the backup copies (example: text.001, text.002, and so
on).
The sample scripts Add Tnsnames entry.wse and TextFile.wse use this action. For details
on sample scripts, see ScriptHelp.htm in the Samples subdirectory of this product's
installation directory.
This action installs files on the destination computer. Each file or directory to be installed
must have a separate Install File(s) action.
When you're installing files permanently on the destination computer using the Install
File(s) script action, you might also want to make sure that the destination computer
has enough disk space available for these files. Do this using the Check Disk Space
script action.
See Check Disk Space on page 44.
The results from an Install File(s) action are put into a variable, INSTALL_RESULT.
See its description in Automatic Run-time Variables
To complete the dialog box
Source Pathname
Specify the path of the file on your computer. You can use wildcards in this field to
indicate that all the files in a directory that match a certain pattern should be
installed (example: C:\Dev\*.exe). You can also use compiler variables, but you
should not use run-time variables, because this field is used at compile time.
Destination Pathname
Specify the path the file will have on the destination computer. Use variables to start
the path (example: %MAINDIR%\Dev\File.txt). This field has a drop-down list with
common variables. Do not include wildcards in this field.
