Silverpoint MultiInstaller

Silverpoint MultiInstaller is a multi component package installer for Embarcadero Delphi and C++Builder. It was created to ease the components installation on the IDE.

Silverpoint MultiInstaller can help you install multiple component packs in a few clicks. Just download the zips and select the destination folder, all the components will be uninstalled from the IDE if they were previously installed, unziped, patched, compiled and installed. It can also install multiple packages directly from GIT repositories.

Changes in this version

By default the installer uses the setup.ini file from the same folder as the installer executable.

This fork features some useful additions:

• The setup .ini file can be dragged and dropped onto the installer form.
• The setup .ini file can be passed via the -I:Setup.ini command line switch.
• Autostarting the installer can be turned off via the -A:off|false|0 command line switch.
  Default: on.
• The default installation folder DefaultInstallFolder can be relative to the setup .ini file.

Getting Started

To install a component pack with MultiInstaller you have to follow these steps:

1. Read the licenses of the component packs you want to install.
2. Get the zip files of component packs.
3. Get the Silverpoint MultiInstaller.
4. Get the Setup.ini file for that component pack installation or create one.

For example, if you want to install TB2K + SpTBXLib:

1. Create a new folder for the installation.
2. Download all the component zips to the created folder: SpTBXLib + TB2K + TB2K Patch
3. Download the MultiInstaller
4. Download the Setup.Ini file, unzip it in the folder.

The installation folder will end up with this files:

C:\MyInstall  
       |-  SpTBXLib.zip  
       |-  tb2k-2.2.2.zip  
       |-  TB2Kpatch-1.1.zip  
       |-  MultiInstaller.exe  
       |-  Setup.ini  

You are ready to install the component packages, just run the MultiInstaller, select the destination folder, and all the components will be unziped, patched, compiled and installed on the Delphi IDE.
