Best way to create a list of Components and the Source/Destination paths??

[vinodn1]

Is there any way of creating the list of Components and their Source/Destination paths in an InstallScript project? I have a very long list of Components, so the manual process takes too long.

When are you trying to create this list? At build time, or run time, or ...?

At any time is ok. This is for reporting/documentation and other similar purposes.

You can use InstallShield Automation on the .ism project file, for example:

' change ProgID for your InstallShield version
set ism = CreateObject("ISWiAuto15.ISWiProject")

ism.OpenProject "InstallScript2009.ism"

for each comp in ism.ISWiComponents
    WScript.Echo comp.name & " going to " & comp.Destination
next ' comp

ism.CloseProject: set ism = Nothing

P.S. This being VBScript code to run using cscript /nologo thisfile.vbs in a command prompt...

Thanks Robert, I will try that out.
