Inno Setup is a free installer for Windows programs. First introduced in 1997, Inno Setup today rivals and even surpasses many commercial installers in feature set and stability.
Installations are created by means of scripts, which are ASCII text files with a format somewhat similar to .INI files. (No, it's not as complicated as you might be thinking!)
Scripts have an ".iss" (meaning Inno Setup Script) extension. The script controls every aspect of the installation. It specifies which files are to be installed and where, what shortcuts are to be created and what they are to be named, and so on.
Script files are usually edited from inside the Setup Compiler program. After you have finishing writing the script, the next and final step is select "Compile" in the Setup Compiler. What this does is create a complete, ready-to-run Setup program based on your script. By default, this is created in a directory named "Output" under the directory containing the script.
To give you an idea of how this all works, start the Setup Compiler, click File | Open, and select one of the script files in the Samples subdirectory located under the Inno Setup directory. (It may be helpful to use the sample scripts as a template for your own scripts.)
Features of Inno Setup :
· Support for all 32-bit Windows versions in use today -- Windows 95, 98, 2000, XP, Me, NT 4.0.
· Supports creation of a single EXE to install your program for easy online distribution. Disk spanning is also supported.
· Standard wizard interface, including support for the latest Windows 2000/XP wizard style.
· Customizable setup types, e.g. Full, Minimal, Custom.
· Complete uninstall capabilities.
· Installation of files:
· Includes integrated "deflate" file compression (the same compression .zip files use) and also supports bzip2 compression. The installer has the ability to compare file version info, replace in-use files, use shared file counting, register DLL/OCX's and type libraries, and install fonts.
· Creation of shortcuts anywhere, including in the Start Menu and on the desktop.
· Creation of registry and .INI entries.
· Silent install and uninstall.
· Full source code is available (Borland Delphi 2.0-5.0).
Inno Setup it may be used completely free of charge, even when deploying commercial applications !
What's New in This Release:
· IDE changes:
· Added support for setting breakpoints (Run | Toggle Breakpoint).
· The dots in the editor's gutter now shift properly when you insert/remove lines while debugging. (Note, however, that any changes you make while debugging won't take effect until you re-compile.)
· Uninstaller: When a DLL/OCX was installed multiple times by separate installations of the same application, the uninstaller would unregister the DLL/OCX once for each install. As an optimization, it will now unregister the DLL/OCX only once.
· Compiler: Using outdated .isl files that are missing some messages no longer results in a fatal compiler error. Now, warnings will be printed, and the missing messages will be pulled from Default.isl.
· Various improvements/fixes to the parsing of pathnames. For example, ExtractFilePath('servershare') now returns servershare rather than server, and ExtractFileDir('path') now returns path rather than path.
· When recursively deleting directories (for example, from an [InstallDelete] entry or a call to DelTree), it no longer recurses into reparse points.
· The value of the NoProgramGroupCheck2 message is now always used as the caption of the "no icons" check box on the Select Start Menu Folder page of the wizard. Previously, it used either NoIconsCheck or NoProgramGroupCheck2 depending on whether an installation had [Icons] entries with Tasks parameters.
· exclusive [Tasks] items that have no visible siblings are no longer automatically converted into check boxes. (If you really want check boxes, then you shouldn't use the exclusive flag.)
· Based on RemObjects Pascal Script SVN code revision 1022.
· Minor tweaks.
