RES.Last Manifest
Get the Path and Data from the last extracted Manifest
Intention
This command is used to get the Data from the last extracted Manifest.
The command will get the Path to the Manifest-File into a Variable, and the Data of the File on the Top Of Stack $tos$.
To see the effect of the Program, its necessary to first "extract" an Manifest.
The command can also be used after an "RES.Extract All".
Here is a Sample-Script.
' This is the path to the Source-File to be extracted
VAR.$$FIA=?path\EXEs\Hello.exe
' The second Parameter is the Path to the root of all "Target Folders".
RES.Extract Manifest|$$FIA|?path\
MBX.$tos$
' To analyze the Manifest in the Script, you can use
RES.Last Manifest|$$TXT
VAR.$$TXA=$tos$
' The Manifest is now in $$TXA
MBX.$$TXA
ENR.
This Script will display fist this Messagebox with the path to the ".Xml"-File.:
Secondly it will display a Messagebox with the Content of the ".Xml"-file.
The following picture shows only a part.
This Script will create these folder with the name of the LanguageID of the Manifest-Resource in ?path\.
Inside that Folder you will find the extracted Manifest as a ".XML"-File.
You can Load XML-Files with SPRE, just change the Filter to "XML-Files":
This may look somehow like here:
