InstallAnywhere 2018
Important • Installers deployed to non-Latin systems require an international Java Virtual Machine.
This list identifies and describes many of the built-in localizable elements in an InstallAnywhere installer. As you build your installer, the localizable elements in your language files changes to match the panels, actions, and custom code you employ.
Element keys typically use the following format:
<component>.<referenceID>.<element>
The referenceID is automatically generated by InstallAnywhere and unique for each project.
Example: InstallerInfoData.68a9edb1a601.installerTitle.
