I don't want to write configuration .xml files manually even writing .qs files really exhausting procedure specially I didn't find any documentation talk bout this kind of scripting.

Hi mbnoimi.
Unfortunately not. But it would be great to have such plugin to a Creator. -

+1 Indeed.
By the way, it seems that script to IFW isn't documented yet. does it? -
Here is some "info":http://doc-snapshot.qt-project.org/qtifw-1.3/scripting.html

I know it, it contains many ambiguous things ex. script space of most important variables installer & component. There is no auto completion or reference to their sub-routine.
Did you try to use IFW by yourself? Personally I tried and I found it very ambiguous.

No i didn't, usualy i use InstallJammer or VS setup project.

Yes but is works ok :) -
bq. Yes but is works ok :)
Actually it doesn't work perfectly just like other installers (ex. NSIS) specially in case of dealing with OS privileges (I face huge problem with Windows 7 where it was working smoothly in Linux) for that I left it and I found IFW a promising solution specially it's Qt based so I can integrate it into my usual Qt projects... Voila
By the way, where IFW users it seems no one use it!!!!

I found "this wiki page":https://qt-project.org/wiki/BuildingQtInstallers which talks about installer choices for Qt.
