Updating Cab file during runtime
hello all,
has anyone tried updating project cab file during runtime?. lets say on OnFirstUIBefore? I included ISCAB.EXE and other dependency files in my supporting directory. I'm getting c++ run time error when doing this during runtime, but when I modify the cab file before running the install via call the ISCAB.EXE from another application to modify the cab file there's no problem at all.
appreciate any feedback you can give.
Thanks!

What effect are you trying to achieve? I'm not sure iscab.exe is redistributable, so this might not be the best way to approach a solution at run time...
