This is a list of the functions available in ITD.




ITD_AddFile


This function adds a file that is to be downloaded when a download screen is reached. Usernames, passwords and port numbers can be provided as part of the URL, eg: ftp://username:password@www.mywebsite.com:8080/myfile.exe


Prototype

procedure ITD_AddFile(const url, filename: string);


Parameters

url - The full address of the file to be downloaded. Eg. 'http://www.mywebsite.com/file.jpg'

filename - The filename of the saved file. Give a complete path, eg. expandconstant('{tmp}\file.jpg')



ITD_AddFileSize


This function adds a file to be downloaded when a download screen is reached, but specifies the size of the file on the server. This avoids delays before the download begins because ITD doesn't have to check the file size on the server.


Prototype

procedure ITD_AddFileSize(const url, filename: string; size:integer);


Parameters

url - The full address of the file to be downloaded. Eg. 'http://www.mywebsite.com/file.jpg'

filename - The filename of the saved file. Give a complete path, eg. expandconstant('{tmp}\file.jpg')

size - The size, in bytes, of the file to be downloaded



ITD_AddMirror


This function adds another URL for a filename which has already been added by ITD_AddFile or ITD_AddFileSize. The new URL will be used as a mirror if downloading from the original URL fails. You can add as many mirrors as you like for a given filename (The mirrors will be checked in order of addition when downloading the file).


Prototype

procedure ITD_AddMirror(const url, filename: string);


Parameters

url - The full address of the file to be downloaded. Eg. 'http://www.mywebsite.com/file.jpg'

filename - The filename of the saved file. Give a complete path, eg. expandconstant('{tmp}\file.jpg')



ITD_Cancel


Calling this function cancels a download that is in progress


Prototype

procedure ITD_Cancel;



ITD_ClearFiles


Clear the list of files that have been added with ITD_AddFile(). Files are automatically removed from the queue once they are downloaded, so you don't normally need to call this function.


Prototype

procedure ITD_ClearFiles;



ITD_DownloadAfter


This function tells ITD that a download screen should be shown after the given page id. You would typically call this once during IntializeWizard().


Prototype

procedure ITD_DownloadAfter(afterID: integer);


Parameters

afterID - The PageID of the wizard page to add after, eg wpReady.
