Method Browser Dialog Box

InstallShield 2016

The Method Browser dialog box is where you specify the class and method in your managed assembly that your custom action should invoke. The Custom Action Wizard displays this dialog box when you click the Browse button on the Managed Method Definition panel. In addition, this dialog box is also displayed if you click the Browse button on the Method Signature dialog box.

Note • Only public methods of public classes are available for selection. In addition, overloaded methods cannot be selected.

The browse functionality is available only if the .NET Framework is installed. In addition, it is available only if the location of the managed assembly is set to the Binary table or installed with the product—not if the assembly’s path references a property or a directory in the Directory table.

Also note that the browse functionality is available for only 32-bit assemblies and for Microsoft intermediate language (MSIL) files. It is not available for 64-bit assemblies.
