How\where to use SaveStringToFile() in my inno setup file

I'm not that familiar with inno (or pascal scripting), but I am assuming what I want to do is pretty simple.

I want to edit a particular text file at the very beginning of the install. Is there a place in the [Code] section were I could just plug this in so that it does this first and then just continues as usual? I'm not really asking for a code example because I think I could figure that out, but I just wanted to know where to put the code.

Solution

  • The install is done between the CurStepChanged(ssInstall) and CurStepChanged(ssPostInstall) event function calls. ssInstall is the correct point to run code for the beginning of the install.
