I am trying to configure a downloadable component in Install4j by associating a specific URL to it. The goal is to allow the installer to fetch the required file dynamically from the internet during installation. However, I am encountering difficulties in locating the exact option or field in Install4j where I can define or assign a URL for a downloadable component.
- I have already created the components in the Installation Components section, and I have successfully defined their options such as files, description, and dependencies.
- In the documentation, there is mention of associating URLs with downloadable components, but I am unable to find a clear Download URL field in the UI.
- I am looking for guidance on:
- The exact steps or settings in Install4j where I can assign a URL to a component.
- Whether I need to use a variable or script to dynamically assign the URL, or if there is a dedicated field in the UI for this purpose.
My goal is to enable the installer to download files directly from the given URLs during the installation process without bundling the files in the installer itself.
