nice package!!

And I suggest:
1, maybe, you can add portable c::b, see :http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,10360.msg93976.html#msg93976
2, maybe, you can host the package in Google project host site, or other site, the current site need to wait for at least 30 seconds is not so good as I see.

thanks.

BTW:
I just find in the log:(I install this package under E:\CodeBlocks)

Also, to let it use portable way, I think the path here:
File:ConfigureSpellChecker.png

can be configured by:
something like:
$(XXXX)\share\CodeBlocks\SpellChecker\th_en_US.idx

note the XXXX can be a C::B's script variable. :D

Thank you for the encouragement! :)

I'll open a project page in Google Code, and upload my inno setup script there, along with the setup file. Maybe you could make use of the script for your nightly builds?

I'll look into the possibility of an option for a portable installation too.

I ommited *.idx files to reduce installer size. If you consider them essential to the spellchecker, I can include them, or even more languages, in a future release.

We had just switched away from InnoSetup towards NSIS for the ease of creating a flexible installer. I doubt that we will switch back again.

Question of mine: Why didn't you choose NSIS in the first place by adopting the existing installer for the releases?

See: http://svn.berlios.de/wsvn/codeblocks/setup, namely the file setup.nsi.

I didn't know you had moved to NSIS. I chose Inno Setup from a habit of making simple installers for my backups a while ago, and remember seeing the inno script in the svn a while ago, so I considered it logical to stick with Inno at the time.

I'll need to learn nsis scripting, but if like you say, it is better for setting setup options, then it will be worth the extra effort.
UPDATE: Indeed it is. I can understand NSIS scripting, and am in the process of adapting the official installer. :)

EDIT: Files are now hosted in Google Code. The download link was updated accordingly.
