Composer-Setup 3.0
2013-11-22
- Major version pushed to v3, reflecting changes below and the requirement to uninstall any existing installation (notified by the installer).
- Added optional Shell Menus context-menu handler, to allow Composer usage from Windows Explorer/File Manager. Not available pre-Vista.
- Added dialog requiring user to shutdown programs that are locking context-menu dll.
- Added Change feature to installer, to allow Composer reinstall and to add/remove context-menus.
- Changed installation directories to split files into application (shell, installer, uninstaller etc) and bin (composer.phar, shims) categories. For admin installs these are
<ProgramFiles>\ComposerSetup
and%ProgramData%\ComposerSetup\bin
. For user installs these are%LOCALAPPDATA%\ComposerSetup
and%LOCALAPPDATA%\ComposerSetup\bin
. The base folder name has been changed to ComposerSetup to avoid any conflicts in the Program Files directory. - Previous-data added: shell menus installed (key : ShellExt).
- Previous-data added: application directory (key : AppDir).
- Previous-data added: bin directory (key : BinDir).
- Code signing added to all dlls for release versions.
- Thanks to cmenning for suggesting the context-menu handler.
