Looking for token pasting.

In C I would use ##

Like:

int var1 = 6;
int num = 1;

// prints 6
printf( "%d", var##num );

// The ## takes the value and pastes it to the name
// so var##num essentially becomes var1


Can this be done in installscript?


Bascially I have a string ("VAR=5")

and I want to parse and get

"VAR" and "5"

And then somehow set the variable named VAR to be 5

VAR=5

how?

No, I don't think that's possible, unlesss you resort to an array, something like:

var[1] = 6;
num = 1;
Sprintf(svString, "%d", var[num]);
