Install file with new name

[tonisa]

Hi,
sometimes it would be usefull to install a file with another name in regard to the original. Actually to perform this task I've to check if the file is just present and has an older date (or version), if so I've to delete it, install the new one and rename it; a lot of scripts that could be avoided if you would provide an "Name destination as"-field in your "file linking properties".
best regards

Toni,

This will be supported in SetupBuilder 8 Developer Edition (see attached screenshot).

Fine. Will this also work with wildcards (example source filename set to "*.xxx", destination filename set to "*.yyy")?
Do you have an approx.release date for v.8?

Hi Toni,

No, wildcard characters, such as "*", are not permitted.

SB8 is scheduled to be released in November. It's nearly code-complete.
