insert macro doubt

devdas_kamath · 2nd February 2008, 04:32

Dear sir,

!macro MYFILES
File "c:\Miscdb\userlist.mdb"
!macroend

!insertmacro MYFILES
!insertmacro MYFILES

with above code my doubt is that whether file userlist.mdb will be compressed twice as it is called by insertmacro twice. thanks in advance.

regards

Macro or not, the datablock optimizer will make sure the file is only compressed once.
