komitaltrade Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 Is it some way to get desired order of apps installation? I tried to start categories with - 01Updates - 02Drivers, etc but without success (child dialog dont care about it, order have some strange logic). Why I ask it? To install some apps, I need to install before (e.g.) Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package. So, idea is - if I check some apps, they should to maintain some order as I want (not how Ketarin want). P.S. I'm surprised how Ketarin don't have item ID (I'm not remember any other serious apps without it - and Ketarin is without any doubt serious apps).

Omniferum Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 This is a feature that was requested quite some time ago, floele will get around to it when he has time i'm fairly sure. As it stands though you can just script around the issue. I know it is a big inelegant but hey, scripts are fun. I mean like for your first app echo wee>1.txt install code here del 1.txt and for the 'next' app that depends on the first app go :loop if exist 1.txt goto :loop The ketarin engine shell doesn't allow for loops n' stuff but if you just use the ketarin to call an external batch install it will work. Just a way to get you what you want until that feature is implemented. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I agree, but it can work just for some fully automated task (e.g. install OS updates), most probably also in silent mode. I'm just wondering, is it really hard (I'm not developer) to implement one column more in main dialog and one field more in Edit dialog??? Four digits, will solve all issue (first two for something like categories order and second two for apps order). P.S. I doubt how anybody work with more apps (to get six digits).

shawn Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 Komali - you can do this already by creating a custom variable and populating them to whatever format you think will suit you best. Before "installing", just sort by that column and you're done. You might also need to limit threads to 1 in settings, connection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

komitaltrade Posted February 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Can you post example how it should to look? If groups should to be from 00-99 and items from 00-99 (so, format is 0000-9999). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
