Clone Derlphi Wizard Lite 2.2
A new version of Clone Delphi Wizard is now available. In this new version, you'll find some visible change in GUI and a very little change in functions: the option to change backup destination folder is not longer available. Furthermore, Delphi installations check boxes are now radio buttons, so it isn't longer possible to proceed to backup several Delphi installations (i.e., Delphi 6 and Delphi 2007) at the same time. Effectively, this has been a difficult choice, because having to perform many backup operations as Delphi installations you have can be annoying and redundant (at the moment, for any Delphi installation CDW creates an archive copntaining all bpl files stored in your System directory). Nevertheless, I decided this was a little sacrifice to obtain consitent backups, stored in well-defined and separate archives.
In return, Delphi 2009 support has been added, so CDW now supports all Delphi versions from Delphi 4 up to Delphi 2009.
Hope you enjoy it.
History
Last patch realesed: see here
29/10/2008: version 2.1 released. This new version lists following updates:
- Packages (*.bpl) files stored in Projects/Bpl folder in Delphi directory weren't included in Log file: now they are.
- Log file now is stored with other backup files in the final archive.
21/10/2008: fixed a bug concerning the bpl files stored in Projects/Bpl folder backup. Now, these files are saved in their own archive. Fixed a bug for choice of destination folder also.
1/08/2008: fixed another bug for compatibility with Delphi 4. Furthermore, Windows Registry saving sectionhas been improved, adding HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE key to brwoseble and saving keys. This maybe interfere with Vista protection system, so Vista users are asked to submit via email their experience using CDW on their systems.
7/10/2007: fixed a bug for compatibility with Delphi 4.
Its function is to allow to Delphi programmers to easily backup their Delphi installations with all settings and package sinstalled in order to move them into a new computer or to restore after a disaster.
You can choose what Delphi installation backup if you have more than one, and you can add so many folder as you wish (third party components folder, your own project folder and so on).
Clone Delphi Wizard Lite is totally free but allows only to create a backup zip file you can use then with your favourite zip/unzip program.
Tested on Windows XP and Windows Vista.
