+
+ \title Module innosetup
+ \since 1.7
+ \brief Provides Inno Setup support.
+
+ The \c innosetup module contains properties and rules for building
+ EXE setup packages with \l{http://www.jrsoftware.org/isinfo.php}{Inno Setup}.
+ Inno Setup 5 and above are supported.
+
+ \note A typical Inno Setup Script includes an OutputBaseFilename command to set the filename
+ of the generated installer executable. However, \QBS overrides any OutputBaseFilename commands
+ found in the script by passing the /F option to the ISCC compiler, and therefore, you must use
+ the targetName property to set the filename. \QBS also overrides any Output commands by passing
+ the /O option to the ISCC compiler.
+
+ \section1 General Properties
+
+ \table
+ \header
+ \li Property
+ \li Type
+ \li Since
+ \li Default
+ \li Description
+ \row
+ \li defines
+ \li \c{stringList}
+ \li 1.7
+ \li \c{undefined}
+ \li List of preprocessor macros that get passed to the compiler.
+ To set macro values use the following syntax:
+ \c{innosetup.defines: ["USE_COLORS=1", 'COLOR_STR="blanched almond"']}
+ \row
+ \li includePaths
+ \li \c{pathList}
+ \li 1.7
+ \li \c{undefined}
+ \li List of include paths. Relative paths are considered to be relative to the .qbs product
+ file they are used in.
+ \row
+ \li verboseOutput
+ \li \c{bool}
+ \li 1.7
+ \li \c{false}
+ \li Whether to display verbose output from the Inno Setup compiler.
+ \row
+ \li compilerFlags
+ \li \c{stringList}
+ \li 1.7
+ \li \c{undefined}
+ \li Additional flags for the Inno Setup compiler.
+ \row
+ \li version
+ \li \c{string}
+ \li 1.7
+ \li \c{undefined}
+ \li The Inno Setup version.
+ Consists of three numbers separated by dots, for instance "5.5.9".
+ \row
+ \li versionMajor
+ \li \c{int}
+ \li 1.7
+ \li \c{versionParts[0]}
+ \li The Inno Setup major version.
+ \row
+ \li versionMinor
+ \li \c{int}
+ \li 1.7
+ \li \c{versionParts[1]}
+ \li The Inno Setup minor version.
+ \row
+ \li versionParts
+ \li \c{list}
+ \li 1.7
+ \li \c{empty}
+ \li The Inno Setup version as a list.
+ For instance, Inno Setup version 5.5.9 would correspond to a
+ value of \c[5, 5, 9].
+ \row
+ \li versionPatch
+ \li \c{int}
+ \li 1.7
+ \li \c{versionParts[2]}
+ \li The Inno Setup patch level.
+ \row
+ \li toolchainInstallPath
+ \li \c{path}
+ \li 1.7
+ \li determined automatically
+ \li Inno Setup installation directory.
+ Determined by searching the registry for the latest version.
+ This should not normally need to be changed.
+ \row
+ \li compilerName
+ \li \c{string}
+ \li 1.7
+ \li \c{"ISCC.exe"}
+ \li Name of the compiler binary.
+ This should not normally need to be changed.
+ \row
+ \li compilerPath
+ \li \c{string}
+ \li 1.7
+ \li \c{compilerName}
+ \li Full path of the compiler binary.
+ This should not normally need to be changed.
+ \endtable

+ \section1 Relevant File Tags
+
+ \table
+ \header
+ \li Tag
+ \li Auto-tagged File Names
+ \li Since
+ \li Description
+ \row
+ \li \c{"innosetup.iss"}
+ \li \c{"*.iss"}
+ \li 1.7
+ \li Source files with this tag identify Inno Setup Script files, which serve as inputs
+ to a rule invoking the Inno Setup Script Compiler.
+ \row
+ \li \c{"innosetup.exe"}
+ \li n/a
+ \li 1.7
+ \li The rule that creates Inno Setup executable files attaches this tag
+ (as well as the "application" tag) to its output artifact.
