having issues with the 7zsd_All.sfx module everytime it extracts it extracts to a temp folder not the folder i specify and then it tries running setup.exe which i dont have as im using the archive to run a batch file to help with an uninstaller im making that uses a mix of batch vbs and hta to allow option selection then run based on options chosen any idea's on how to do this?

Post your config.txt and make sure not to use a SFX that you split using 7zsplit because it will retain the previous config.txt

[red death68]

this is my config file its pretty simple

Quote

;!@Install@!UTF-8!
GUIMode="1"
Skip="yes"
path="sounds"
;!@InstallEnd@!

im using the 7zsd_All.sfx modual from the 1.5 beta iv also tried with like 5 other modules and getting to my wits end

all i want it to do is so the extraction then run a vbs or batch file(depending on if i use the hide option from the module)

(note i forgot the run command in the config file because i was testing without it)

Where did you find these parameters?
These parameters does not exist!

Can not be tested without the run command!

[red death68]

the skip and path parameters were from a differnt site on google i was originally using the ones from 7zsfx.info but then switched around heres a altered version

Quote

;!@Install@!UTF-8!
GUIMode="1"
InstallPath="s"
RunProgram="test.bat"
;!@InstallEnd@!

note that test.bat may be replaced with a differnt one altogether or removed if i decide to use a start with wait from the cmd in my uninstaller

if i do the cmd batch will simnply say to start /wait "sounds.exe" "%path%\sounds.exe"

%path% will be defined earlier in the batch or defined as a differnt variable like %var%

Hi,

The modified .sfx modules are great: they're the basis for all of my tools. In fact, my most important tool is an sfx-based tool that makes other sfx-based tools by providing a customized command line interface to build the config.txt file, specify the files to be zipped and included, and to copy everything to the .exe file.

(That tool, makeexe.exe can be found here Download MakeExe.exe. Unzip it and then type MakeExe.exe /? and/or use 7z to unpack it and see the internal parts and readme files. I've also attached MakeExe.exe here.)

At any rate, I have a great need to know the directory from which a tool is called, because many of my tools have relative file and/or directory names as parameters, for example:

myuncompress.exe dir1 dir2 ...

I need something like:

myuncompress.exe -SetEnvironment="MY_CD=%CD%" dir1 dir2 ...

only where the

-SetEnvironment="MY_CD=%CD%"

is instead done either in config.txt and/or is supplied by a new intrinsic variable akin to %%T or %%S,
because I don't won't my users to have to specify irrelevant information as a tool parameter.

I've tried several things and none work.

For instance, including

SetEnvironment="MY_CD=%%CD%%" into config.txt merely yields:

MY_CD=%CD%

when the archive program accesses MY_CD.

The situation is hopeless if a system temp directory is used for the extraction, so when I need a program that uses
relative file/directory names, I have the archive extracted into a directory relative to the invoking directory with
a config.txt file similar to the following:

;!@Install@!UTF-8!
SetEnvironment="USE_TEMP_DIR=NO"
InstallPath=".\\TempExtractDiretory"
SetEnvironment="EXTRACT_DIR=%%T"
GUIMode="1"
ExtractTitle="Extracting myuncompress.bat"
RunProgram="myuncompress.bat"
Delete="%%T"
;!@InstallEnd@!

Inside myuncompress.bat, I have code like

Set SavedExtractDir=%CD%

IF DEFINED EXTRACT_DIR (
IF /I "%USE_TEMP_DIR%" NEQ "YES" (CD ..)
)

to decide if the extraction directory is relative to the calling directory, and then by doing

CD ..

I can obtain the directory from which the archived program was invoked.


It would be so much simpler, so much more useful, and so much more elegant if a new variable like %%C
was made available to indicate the invoking directory. (Note that %%S does not work because that is the
location of the archive program and not the directory from which it was invoked.)

(Another possibility would be to add another well-defined environmental variable %InvocationDirectory% that contains the directory path of the invoking directory, similar to %CommonDesktop%, %CommonDocuments%, etc.)

Thanks, Asok.



PostScript:

Well, at least I now know why

SetEnvironment="MY_CD=%%CD%%"

does not work.

The source code uses the "ExpandEnvironmentStrings" string function to expand environmental variables, but a community comment on the MS msdn.microsoft.com web page that documents this functions notes:

"The 'CD' and 'ERRORLEVEL' values are not expanded
Note that this function really doesn't work the same way as the CMD shell at all -- like the documementation notes, it doesn't do the fancy expansion. But it also doesn't expand the CD or ERRORLEVEL "variables" either."

I really need for the source code to make a call to GetCurrentDirectory and put the results in an evironmental value, because that looks like that is the only way this information will be available to the user program.

haiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
I need to copy some files to c:\
i used this code but not working :
--------------------------------------------
;!@Install@!UTF-8!
GUIMode="2"
RunProgram="cmd /c xcopy *.* \"%SystemDrive%" /y /h"
;!@InstallEnd@!
---------------------------------------------
What the true code i used to copy????????????

[ricktendo]

;!@Install@!UTF-8!
GUIMode="2"
RunProgram="cmd /c xcopy *.* \"%SystemDrive%\" /y /h"
;!@InstallEnd@!

Probably because you were missing a backslash from one of your quotes

Edit: try this slightly improved version (hides console window and added %%T=full extraction path)

;!@Install@!UTF-8!
GUIMode="2"
RunProgram="hidcon:xcopy \"%%T\\*.*\" \"%SystemDrive%\" /y /h"
;!@InstallEnd@!

This is too much ...
possible way:

RunProgram="xcopy *.* %SystemDrive% /y /h"
