Locale Condition Settings

InstallShield 2015

Project: This information applies to the following project types:

Advanced UI
Suite/Advanced UI

Edition: The Advanced UI project type is available in the Professional edition of InstallShield. The Suite/Advanced UI project type is available in the Premier edition of InstallShield. For information about the differences between these two project types, see Advanced UI Projects vs. Suite/Advanced UI Projects.

When you are building a conditional statement for an exit, detection, eligibility, or feature condition in an Advanced UI or Suite/Advanced UI project, or for an action condition in a Suite/Advanced UI project, you can create a Locale condition.

The Locale setting shows the condition that is configured for matching one or more locale-related settings on target systems. To define this type of condition, configure one or more of the subsettings under the Locale setting as needed.

The following subsettings are available for this condition.
