Deleting file during an update

Post by Raubi »

Hi,

our executables are named like that: product_version.exe. So every version has it's own exe. During a patch session (e.g. from 1.0 to 1.2) want the patch to delete the previous exe file (product_10.exe in this case).

Is it possible or do I have to script it?

You will need to script it in, make sure you insert it inside the correct Compiler Variable If...Compiler Variable End block so it is included in the patch builds only.
