Not sure is this correct place for my question (i am not a programmer):
I have some sofware packed into installer, file version: 2.11.15.0, in
file properties shown "SFX CAB archive", name "stub32i.ex e". I can
extract files from this archive with WinZip without launching
application.
I have an big application that consist from various setup files
extracted from similar installer archive. For more convenience, I want
pack it into installer like mentioned. How to make the installer from
separate program files? Have the extracted setup (as folder with
separate program files) any advantages against standalone installer
pack?
Generally, I need this for more handy distribution application on CD,
but I dont want that installer do any other tasks, other than
extracting files and launching 'setup.exe' file - i.e. I want that
installer do not check registry, do not write to registry, do not
modify anything, do not show any prompts. The task is only extract
files and run 'Setup.exe' file. What software I need?

Perhaps you can do that with Winzip, don't know if it can launch
setup.exe when it's done extracting but you should be able to create a
SFX archive with it.

Yes, problems. Off-topic queries clog up this (high-volume) newsgroup with
irrelevant cruft which I, for one, do not want to have to wade through. And
of course you are much more likely to get your questions answered in an
appropriate forum.

Hi,
I'm trying to write a small installer for a server. But this program
should be able to run in the future under heterogenous environments and
os (at least linux/windows). I mean, the install will be done either in
text mode or curses or gtk or tk, either in debian or windows 2000 and
so on...
The idea, at the moment, is as follows :

When I apply the installer to create a setup.exe for clients, I get
"default company name" in the suggested file location. How do I change
"default company name" into a more appropriate setting? (I don't want
clients to have to do that. So I am talking about a setting change in
the Visual C#.NET IDE when setting up the installer.) I would be very
obliged to have a response to this query.

Hi guys,
I've got a quick question about installers in .NET. Any advice would be
gratefully received!
I'm writing a .NET Windows application that needs an installer. I'd
really like the set up files to comprise of a SetUp.exe file, an MSI
and a CAB file containing all the files (exes, dlls, etc...) for my
application. Then, when the SetUp (or MSI) is launched, the installer
unpacks what is in the CAB file and deploys it to the install...

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
