This custom action retrieves a string from the specified section in an initialization file. Some applications may still work with .ini files although Win32-based applications should store initialization information in the registry. Format of an INI file:
[AppName]
Key=Value Property Name | Data Type | Description |
|---|
| AppName | String | Specifies the section containing the key name. This section name is typically the name of the calling application. Do not add the enclosing brackets [ ] yourself. | Default | String | Pointer to a default string. If the key cannot be found in the initialization file, the action copies the default string to the variable. It should not be blank. | | IniFile | String | Points to a string that names the initialization file. Do not forget the .ini extension and its path. Example:
%WIN%\Myappli.ini | | Key | String | Contains the name of the key to be associated with a string. | Variable | VarName | This is the variable that will store the result read from the .ini file. For example %MyIniValue%.
%MyIniValue% can be any value, such as a path to a file or a number. |
