install infs with inf

[sscoop]

is there a way to create an inf file that is used as a "shortcut" or "batch" to install other inf files. i am interested because i want to group an aplication that has several inf files using iexpress and install it.

thanks.

You may be able to achieve your goal by judicious use of Needs= and Include=.

The Include item enables you to specify INF files that setup must also load into memory when it loads your INF file.

The Needs item specifies the names of the sections you intend to run in the included INF file(s).

thanks very much for the info but could you give me a simple example so that i can work on that. i find that writing infs is pretty complicated

[DefaultInstall]
AddReg         = Add2RegItems
Needs          = SectionNameInOther, SectionNameInExtra
Include        = Other.inf, Extra.inf

[Add2RegItems]
HKLM,"Key Name",ValueName,,"Some Data"

thanks a lot

[Version]
signature = "$Windows NT$"

[DefaultInstall]
Needs		  = codecs10.DefaultInstall, DRM10.DefaultInstall, WMDM10.DefaultInstall, WMFSDK10.DefaultInstall
Include		= codecs10.inf, DRM10.inf, WMDM10.inf, WMFSDK10.inf

i have wrote this and i keep getting an error that says: the software i am installing has not passed windows logo verification and can not continue
