Hello,

Is there a text file somewhere with a list of plugins for the Installer ? After all, the Installer remembers the plugins that were selected last time it was executed. Are these stored in a file somewhere ?

The idea is to put into that file the list of activated plugins I have, so they becomes instantly selected when a new Installer is made available.

Cheers.

Hi, well, assuming you are a bit of a hacker :)

C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\MeldaProduction\DefaultInstallerItems.xml

You should be able to work with that, it's just a text file ;).

Depends. Recently I wrote a small parallel multiget downloader in objet-orientation (C++) using libcurl for the main work. :)

Thanks again. Here I found it in:

../users/<user>/Application Data/MeldaProduction/DefaultInstallerItems.xml

The format for that file should probably stay the same for quite some time, isn't it ? I mean, I can put my own file in there for installers 12.06 ...12.11 ...12.34 maybe even 13.nn ?

Cheers.

Yes, the format should stay, so feel free add some more :D :D. But what if you add more plugins? Plus perhaps the future installers for major updates will load the stuff from previous installers ;)

I add manually to the list, to a copy of the xml file.

There's a catch in there, MXXXCore is listed as MXXX. :wink:

I don't have enough details about this loading and how it's done, so I can't say. But if the installer for a future major version expects the list of current owned plugins then it will be there.

Cheers.

MXXXCore IS MXXX, just a different licence ;)
