This will not cover how to run the QuickTime installer because I could see people wanting to run this at different point during the install.
Here is a function that will detect the version of QuickTime. Place this in the Global Functions section of the software:
Now to actually use this code you will have to call the function. In most cases you will want to do a version comparison on this. Here is some code to get you started:Code:function ir_GetQuicktimeVersion() local bOK = true; --We're checking for Quicktime at this point . . . bOK = Registry.DoesKeyExist(HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT,"CLSID\\{02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B}\\InprocServer32"); if (bOK) then strFileName = Registry.GetValue(HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT,"CLSID\\{02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B}\\InprocServer32","NoName",true); if (Application.GetLastError() ~= 0) then bOK = false; end end --If a version was found, we now get the version information if (bOK) then verInfo = File.GetVersionInfo(strFileName); if(Application.GetLastError() ~= 0)then strVersion = "0.0.0.0"; else -- OK, we have the file version strVersion = verInfo.FileVersion; end end --If there was no version found, bOK = false, and verison is set to "0.0.0.0" if (bOK ~= true) then strVersion = "0.0.0.0"; end return strVersion; end
Code:strQTver = ir_GetQuicktimeVersion(); strTargetver = 5.0.0.0 if String.CompareFileVersions(strQTver,strTargetver) == -1 then -- The installed version is less than 5.0.0.0 -- Here is where you would run the installer for QT. end
