InstallShield 2015 » InstallScript Project Tutorial
In your InstallScript code, the event handler functions that contain the dialog functions displayed at run time are:
| • | OnFirstUIBefore, which contains the dialogs to be displayed before data transfer for a first-time installation. |
| • | OnFirstUIAfter, which contains the dialogs to be displayed after data transfer for a first-time installation. |
| • | OnMaintUIBefore, which contains the dialogs to be displayed before data transfer for a maintenance-mode installation. |
| • | OnMaintUIAfter, which contains the dialogs to be displayed after data transfer for a maintenance-mode installation. |
Note: The OnMaintUIBefore and OnMaintUIAfter event handler functions are not called if the project’s Maintenance Experience property is set to "No uninstall or maintenance".
A default InstallScript project created with the Project Assistant defines the OnFirstUIBefore event handler function, which defines the user interface for a first-time installation. OnFirstUIBefore calls dialog functions to display the dialogs that you specified in the Project Assistant’s Installation Interview page. For example, the following code displays a dialog that prompts the end user to enter a user name and company name:
szMsg = "";
szTitle = "";
nResult = SdRegisterUser( szTitle, szMsg, szName, szCompany );
The end user’s user name and company name are returned in the last two variables, which you can then use in any way you want, for example, to create a registry key or check against information you have stored in a file.
