I'm using AfterInstall on a [Files] entry with a wildcard Source parameter. Calling CurrentSourceFilename simply gives me the source pattern -- not the actual file that is being processed. Is there any way to get the actual filename?

The following example would log {code:DirName}\*.ext once for each file, not {code:DirName}\file1.ext, {code:DirName}\file2.ext etc.

[Files]
Source: "{code:DirName}\*.ext"; Flags: external; AfterInstall: LogName

[Code]
procedure LogName;
begin
  Log(CurrentSourceFilename);
end;

function DirName(Param: String): String;
begin
  Result := 'dir';
end;

There's indeed no way to retrieve that information, when external flag is used - seems like a bug to me.

Without external flag, you can find out a file name using CurrentFilename.

Instead, you can code the file copy (including the logging) in Pascal script.

See Inno Setup: copy folder, subfolders and files recursively in Code section.
