VisualSetup 4.0 uses an easy but powerful scripting-system called Click-Script. Click-script was developed to allow you create scripts without needing to know a new programming language. You just need to know what you want to do, and then insert the action you need in the event you want.

 

The actions must to be included in an event. Every interaction of end-user with setup program are considered events. Also, some important moments of the installation are events, like the moment before and after the installation process. To know more information about the available events, read the Events topic.

 

All project items, like dialogs, controls, files, shortcuts, have strings, number and conditions. These elements are considered expressions and have a special syntax. You can refer variables and arrays from these expressions. For more information, read the Expressions topic.

 

You can define your own actions, using the click-script language (Custom Actions) or using your own programming language (DLL Actions). Also you can download Actions Libraries and increase the sets of actions of your project.
