Inno Setup is Flagged as Trojan?

aaronventure

checking it now.

Here's a Windows Build.bat file that you can add to the multipagecreator directory for one click build

@echo off
set "script_dir=%~dp0"
set "projucer_path=..\projucer\Projucer.exe"
set "msbuild=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\MSBuild\Current\Bin\MsBuild.exe"

REM Echo the paths to verify
echo HISE Source directory: %hise_source%
echo Projucer Path: %projucer_path%

REM Build
"%projucer_path%" --resave "multipagecreator.jucer"
"%msbuild%" "Builds\VisualStudio2022\multipagecreator.sln" /t:Rebuild /p:Configuration="Release" /verbosity:minimal

Your problem here is Samples.dat.

Most sample based applications are carrying many Gb of samples with them, so Samples.dat a renamed zip file) will be many Gb big - and as Dave and I have found out thru experience the HISE unzip process can often balk at anything past about 2Gb.... so you are limiting the utility of this right there.

To address this:

yes, unzip is 32 bit, and still the only native choice in the latest JUCE version.

My app actually makes a list of all the .dat files with Samples in their name, then extracts them one by one.

As ZIP does not support archive splitting, I wrote batch that you can include in the root of your project and it will automatically pack all your chx files into incrementally named zips and keep fitting them. If a new chx monolith would push the archive over 2 GB, it writes it to another archive instead.

would still recommend to go for the DMG option on macOS - you can hide the data files in the DMG folder view and it becomes a very lean user experience.

Well, technically it's the same for Windows ISO files and autorun on mount. NI used to roll like this for a long time if I remember correctly, before Native Access was a thing.

Yup, that's a flag in the UnzipAction that you can tick, then it will delete the Zip file after successful extraction (you can also choose to use a temporary file for the download target, then it will also delete it when done).

Actually thats useful - but its not what ours does...it (at a later date) allows the user to un-install the plugin and all its files....so it removes the vst3, au, aax plugins and all the samples in the samples folder(that belong to this product) and the contents of AppData....

@d-healey Here's the repo https://github.com/aaronventure/HISE-Plugin-Installer

TODO:

Unzip Samples
Unzip AppData

@Christoph-Hart As I'm playing around with the Multi Page Creator, is there or will there be an option to execute terminal/command line functions? I see LambdaTask but have no clue how it works.

Christoph Hart

@aaronventure yeah sure good idea, why not.

The lambda task is a placeholder action that you then can implement in C++ later (I‘ll be using this system for every custom dialog in HISE going forward).

Currently I‘m implementing a CSS parser/renderer that allows full styling of this dialog so don‘t wonder if you pull the latest changes and it looks completely different ;)

I‘m implementing a CSS parser/renderer

Is this for the entire UI or just the multi-dialog system?

Christoph Hart

@d-healey starting with the multipage, but I have plans to extend this to native HISE controls at some point to.

HISEnberg

@Christoph-Hart I was tinkering around with this today, very exciting and can't wait for it to be incorporated in HISE!

@aaronventure I'm also getting this issue.

Further, adding product name to the setup and creating a custom type [Types] in the script knocks that down to 3.

Would you mind expanding on this a little please? As in which bits of the script do you edit?

I've got:

#define MyAppName

and the other entries there - is that what you mean by adding the product name?

I don't use [Types] anywhere though...

aaronventure

@DanH It was just this


[Types]
Name: "custom"; Description: "Default"; Flags: iscustom

These are for "full installation" etc, I think. I wanted to skip that screen so I just created a custom one.

Yeah, that's what I meant by defining product name.

Btw, have you looked at the multipage creator?

DanH

@aaronventure amazing, thanks!

Btw, have you looked at the multipage creator?

Nope, it doesn't seem finished? I've already created a standalone installer for my audio content. It downloads and installs the zip file, creates the link file, deletes the zip etc. You can choose a custom location etc.

I'm sure I could get this to install the vst files but I'd prefer to get my Inno installers working as that seems the more normal route for customers.

Is the multipage creator any good?

Christoph Hart

Is the multipage creator any good?

Yes very good. Much software.

Jokes aside, it's not ready for client use. I have a vague roadmap for it, with phase 4 being stable enough to promote this as solution for HISE devs, but we're not there yet.

Phase 1: Use it for the internal HISE dialog windows. This is pretty much complete and the snippet browser is a glorious example of a new UX-friendly future of HISE.
Phase 2: Use it for the HISE installers. It kind of works but I'm still breaking those as I work on the multipage creator core architecture. I aim for the HISE 4.0.0 installers to be built with this system though.
Phase 3: Use it for my own projects as installer solution. This way I am responsible of fixing backwards compatibility stuff
Phase 4: Make docs & examples for other devs to use this
Phase 5: Integrate this entire system into HiseScript so you can use it to make modal dialogs, use standardized CSS for look and feel etc.

So we're at phase 1.5 at the moment but I decided to put it on hold and resume the work on the glitchfest that is called HISE for the next weeks.

One of my installers has been getting flagged for some people downloading through Chrome - despite being signed. I ran it through Virus Total and sure enough Google was flagging it.

I changed the compression algorithm in the iss file to bzip and that seems to have solved the issue.

aaronventure

@d-healey that's a super funny solution

Dan Korneff

@d-healey I came across the same thing. Still testing on this end, but changing the compression method seems to have solved it.
