Replacing a file whose file name changes every release with Inno Setup

I am creating an installer using Inno Setup and I have a file whose name changes every release (because the file name has the version number embedded in it):

#define MY_FILE_NAME "file_1.0.0.jar"

[Files]
Source: {#MY_FILE_NAME}; DestDir: {app}; Flags: ignoreversion

How would I make my installer remove file_1.0.0.jar from the install location when installing file_2.0.0.jar?

I added an [InstallDelete] section which seems to do the trick:

[InstallDelete]
Type: files; Name: "{app}\file_*.jar"
