I can:

Quote
BACKUP "IEModA\backup"
SUPPORT "IEModA"
VERSION "1.1.0"

BEGIN "MainComponent" LABEL "IEModA-MainComponent" DESIGNATED 1000
    OUTER_SET IEModA-MainComponent = ID_OF_LABEL "IEModA" "IEModA-MainComponent"
    PRINT "%IEModA-MainComponent%"

BEGIN "ExtraComponent" LABEL "IEModA-ExtraComponent" DESIGNATED 2000
    REQUIRE_PREDICATE (MOD_IS_INSTALLED "IEModA.tp2" (ID_OF_LABEL "IEModA" "IEModA-MainComponent" )) "Require IEModA-MainComponent"
    OUTER_SET IEModA-ExtraComponent = ID_OF_LABEL "IEModA" "IEModA-ExtraComponent"
    PRINT "%IEModA-ExtraComponent%"

I guess you can't do anything in terms of simplifying the syntax. One thing I notice that 'MOD_IS_INSTALLED' needs '.tp2', does it have to?

Can you use REQUIRE_PREDICATE? Allowing REQUIRE_COMPONENT to evaluate stuff essentially turns it into a slightly different REQUIRE_PREDICATE.

Hi,

Wouldn't it be too much trouble to extend functionality of REQUIRE_COMPONENT in order to allow evaluation of the modComponent number, just as MOD_IS_INSTALLED action?

This example currently fails:

Quote
BACKUP "IEModA\backup"
SUPPORT "IEModA"
VERSION "1.1.0"


BEGIN "MainComponent" LABEL "IEModA-MainComponent" DESIGNATED 1000


    OUTER_SET ID = ID_OF_LABEL "IEModA.tp2" "IEModA-MainComponent"
    PRINT "%ID%"


BEGIN "ExtraComponent" LABEL "IEModA-ExtraComponent" DESIGNATED 2000
REQUIRE_COMPONENT "IEModA.tp2" (ID_OF_LABEL "IEModA.tp2" "IEModA-MainComponent") "Require IEModA-MainComponent"


    OUTER_SET ID = ID_OF_LABEL "IEModA.tp2" "IEModA-ExtraComponent"    PRINT "%ID%"


This is workaround but with the drawbacks:

Quote
BEGIN "MainComponent" LABEL "IEModA-MainComponent" DESIGNATED 1000


    OUTER_SET ID = ID_OF_LABEL "IEModA.tp2" "IEModA-MainComponent"
    PRINT "%ID%"


BEGIN "ExtraComponent" LABEL "IEModA-ExtraComponent" DESIGNATED 2000
    ACTION_IF MOD_IS_INSTALLED "IEModA.tp2" (ID_OF_LABEL "IEModA.tp2" "IEModA-MainComponent") BEGIN
    OUTER_SET ID = ID_OF_LABEL "IEModA.tp2" "IEModA-ExtraComponent"
    PRINT "%ID%"
    END ELSE BEGIN
        ABORT "Require IEModA-MainComponent"
    END
