SQL CE 4 Support

Postby shanep » Tue Feb 08, 2011 2:34 pm

Hi there,
With SQL CE 4 been released last month does the current version of installaware support it? I am looking packaging an application that requires this and want to be sure installaware can add it before shelling out on a purchase that doesnt do what I need.

Thanks

Hi,

We currently do not support SQL CE 4. However, this can be easily support by editing one of our scripts. I will ask support to follow you up on this.

Thank you.

Thank you that works nicely. However it has led me to my next problem.
Inside Application Runtimes I have selected both x64 & x86 versions of the SQLCE4, I don't know what version of the os the user is using so I need this to install whatever version of the os the person is using.

How do I modify the script to only require installing the relevant version of sql ce4?

Thanks
SHane

In the MSIcode there is a Get System Settings statement. That might be of use as you can get system settings returned to a variable and you could place the include script statements the runtime selections produce for you inside "if" statements.

Get System Settings has a capability listed in the pulldown called "Windows in 64 bit mode".

Is that what you want to do?
