SdStartCopy2 Example

InstallShield 2018 » InstallScript Language Reference

Project • This information applies to the following project types:

/*--------------------------------------------------------------*\

*

* InstallShield Example Script

*

* Demonstrates the functions SdProductName, SdWelcome,

* SdStartCopy2, and SdFinish.

*

* First, SdProductName is called to set the product name to

* substitute for the %P place holder, which is embedded in the

* message strings passed to SdWelcome and SdFinish.

*

* Next, SdWelcome is called to display a welcome message and

* then SdStartCopy2 is called.  Finally, a call to SdFinish

* completes the setup process by giving the user final options.

*

* Note: Before running this script, set the preprocessor

*       constants so that they reference the fully-qualified

*       names of the Windows Notepad executable and a valid

*       text file on the target system.
