Hi, I found an old post (2012) about having an "If condition at compression time" or even a "skip error" for multi builder.

Is there any news about this?

I'm using v6.1.1 and I am not able to find this.

Thx

I explained "skip error" in the last post there.
For example, you want to create two setups from one project.
Specify two variables in Project - Preprocessor list like this
Variable Name: myfull
Setup[Default]: 1
Setup[2]: 0

Variable Name: mypath
Setup[Default]: c:\pathfull
Setup[2]: c:\pathlight
or
Variable Name: mypathext
Setup[Default]: c:\pathext\*.*
Setup[2]:

Now you can specify If Condition of commands (exclude Installation Files) as $full$ if you want to execute them in the full setup only.

For Installation Files command
Specify Source Files (wildcards) or Directory as
$mypath$\*.*
or
$mypathext$

In the case 'mypathext', Installation Files for Light version will be skipped without any warnings.
In the case 'mypath', Installation Files will compress c:\pathfull
or c:\pathlight for the full or light version.

I have a lot of files inside different folder and many setup creations, so I'm using cicmd.exe and it's not easy to manage all files to be skipped using preprocessor variables (I will have a very long command line)

Is there a way to skip error messages during cicmd.exe execution?

For the moment I just press "Yes to all" and everything works fine, but I create a lot of setup and I have to press button a lot of times...

Thx in advance.

There is such option.
Go to Project - Setup Builder and check on 'Ignore if no files for compression were found' checkbox.

Also, we have made a console version of cicmd.exe. You can download and try it
http://www.createinstall.com/downloads/cicmdcon.exe

Great! Perfect! Exactly what I need!

Thx a lot!

I've noticed that using cicmdcon.exe instead of cicmd.exe, when I start exe to install I get a "trial version" message.

Is it possible to have cicmdcon.exe "no trial"?

For the moment I re-use cicmd.exe

Thanks.
