Cab Making
Is it possible to make a cab install files and also delete one file on the phone? I have WinCE cab but I don't know how or if it is easy to make the cab delete a file.
I have to delete an old database file for a new program to work properly. |

Re: Cab Making
you can do it with a provxml, add this to "pre XML" or "post XML" section, depending on needs, on the "cab information" page in wincecab manager
Code:
<characteristic type="FileOperation"> |

Re: Cab Making
It didn't work. What should I try now?

Re: Cab Making
from what i know that isn't possible...you have to create a SETUP.DLL in WinCE manager to delete files, and creating these DLLs isn't exactly easy either since you have to write the functions in C++

Re: Cab Making
yes it is possible, check out my cab from the new sprint navigation thread. it does exactly this. it deletes the old preferences file before installing the new stuff. the file may be in use hence is why you cannot delete or override it. try turning off manila then installing your cab.

Re: Cab Making
you're right it is possible, just tested it..wonder it it's possible to move stuff this way? a lot easier than dealing with dlls that's for sure!
