how to compile multiple files into one exe

[kiman]

I'm uncertain how to include an executable file, such as ad-aware, AND the definition file, all to be compiled into one executable. I'll post the script that I'm using to install from the script directory. I have another script for spybot that includes the exe in the script executable, but I would also like to add the includes updater file to the script's exe. Any help is greatly appreciated! Here's what I'm using:

Adaware:

_CopyDirWithProgress(@ScriptDir & "\defs\", "C:\Program Files\Lavasoft\Ad-Aware SE Personal\")
Sleep(200)

Not exactly sure what your problem is - you have FileInstall in there already, so you know what it does. All you have to do is FileInstall everything you need to include.

If your having issues, trying using the full path name to the source file you want to install...

I'm still pretty new at this and most of the scripts that I use are ones already made, or ones that I've modified to do what I need them to do. It's been awhile since I worked with these, and I guess I must have figured out how to include the spybot includes file and forgot about it. The run silent part function wasn't what I was wanting it to do, and mistook that for a hangup somewhere in the code. Sorry about that. If I just use the file install method to include the def.ref file for adaware and combine the two scripts into one, should I be okay?

Sorry again about the confusion. I worked on this quite awhile ago and never was able to get things finished the way I wanted. Thanks for you help!

[greenmachine]

Look up FileInstall in the helpfile, that should help.

You can FileInstall as many files as you need into one main script - all you need is to have a definite file path to each one at the time of compiling, and you're all set.

I am having a slight problem with getting the defs.ref file to actually transfer to the directory. It shows the definitions as dec 24, 2005 instead of the new defs. I've tried both variable and static paths for the destination, and checked my defs.ref version, and my system clock, lol. Here's the code for adaware:

Files maintain their original creation/modification timestamps when installed

[kiman]

Sorry, I'm new to this...

Is the new definition file (2-14-06) overwriting the original definition file from the aawsepersonal.exe installation, but retaining the aawsepersonal.exe's defs.ref timestamp? The file size of the defs.ref in the program directory after my script has run is smaller than the defintion I'm copying over (2-14-06). I'm sure I'm not doing something right, but I've tried variations for a couple hours and am lost at this point. Do I need to set the flag to 1 to resolve the problem? I wasn't sure if there was an error elsewhere in my code or what exactly. I appreciate your help and advice you've given so far!

I tried setting the flag to 1 and allowed the new defs.ref file to be used. I saw the note about setting the flag in the help file when I started a few hours ago, but I guess I forgot about it and thought it was more of an issue with my noob coding than anything. Thanks everybody for your help! I can't believe how quickly everyone responds!

[SmOke_N]

the flag is an optional paramater, if your going to keep writing to this same computer in the same file directory under the same name, you'll want to set it to one always so you can over write any existing file with current data.

The creation date of the original file time stamp will not change ... this is when you originally installed it on the 'source file' pc. That's the same time stamp that the new computer(s) will have, unless you delete the old one in the source file, and recreate it so it has todays current time stamp date.

Hope I explained that right, they usually don't let me post after 1:00 am.
