@Lindon But we do :) hence my original question. Can we make the uninstaller remove those files? I can do this easy peasy on GNU with a bash uninstaller.

@Lindon Thanks, I'll read through that.

Does INNO have the ability to let end users select what they'd like to install? Like a check box for vst, vst3 or aax?
edit:
found this thread that may helphttps://stackoverflow.com/questions/25657175/inno-setup-with-three-destination-folders
-
Yes of course. The Inno script file that is created from HISE does give the user the option to select individual components.
-
Open a terminal and type %hise_path% --help for all available commands:(%hise_path% stands for the path to your HISE executable(standalone).)my standalone app exists in:
C:\Program Files\HISE-scriptnode\projects\standalone\Builds\VisualStudio2017\x64\Release\Appso I open cmd and type in ?
C:\Program Files\HISE-scriptnode\projects\standalone\Builds\VisualStudio2017\x64\Release\App --help -
My mediocre batch processing skills would suggest
"C:\Program Files\HISE-scriptnode\projects\standalone\Builds\VisualStudio2017\x64\Release\App\HISE.exe" --helpBecause you've got a space between Program and Files.

@Christoph-Hart With Packages, do I need to make a "package" for each version of the plugin? and then import each of those into a project?
I just clicked around, but it looks like I'll actually have to read some documentation
-
Check out David's package files:
https://github.com/davidhealey/sofiawoodwinds/tree/master/Packaging/OSX
I am not doing it much differently.
-
@Christoph-Hart Any tricks on how to create the package for aax?
Packages shows my Application Support folder as Empty
-
@dustbro I don't have my computer in front of me, but you need to create each subfolder of the path (right click on Application Support)
-
Packages shows a "Vanilla" system, that you have to populate with folders and files that it will populate during the installation, so it's like Greg said, you need to add all folders and files at the location you want them to be.
Be aware that the AAX plugins have to be at the global
/Library/Application Support/Avid/Audio/Plug-Insfolder and not the user~/Library/...path. This is a problem if you are using the current user's home domain by ticking the last checkbox in the advanced settings:

I'm having a slightly different problem
I can't seem to access the user ~/Library (which is where the VST3 folder is located.
I've triedchflags unhidden ./Library/from Terminal, but get access denied. Yay!!
-
I was able to create a shortcut for the user library and access thru there
My next issue involves confusion over the source and destination. When you add a folder to your list, what is that actually selecting?? I went thru and added my plug, and it automatically selects the Source and Destination. In Inno Setup, I could script the source file, and it's destination. This just makes me scratch my head.
-
I think I got it sorted. Add folders and sub folders (case sensitive) to your destination, then right click and "add files".

Or in this case, just use "Absolute Reference"...

@dustbro These examples are very useful, you can easily modify them. there are templates for Whitebox Packages and Inno setup ;)
