如何从 Inno Setup Pascal Script 设置版本号

Question

I have a script that reads the version number from an application file. Now I need to find a way to place this number in the AppVersion directive of Inno Setup.

How can I place the return value of my function in the AppVersion directive?

Answer 1

Use a scripted constant :

[Setup]
AppVersion={code:GetAppVersion}

[Code]

function GetAppVersion(Param: string): string;
begin
  Result := MyFunction;
end;

If the function call is costly, you should cache its value to a global variable and use the cached value in the scripted constant.
