Registering Objects in InstallScript Projects

InstallShield 2024

Project: This information applies to the InstallScript projects.

When you register an object from within an InstallScript project, InstallShield adds that object to the redistributables gallery, which makes it available for inclusion in other projects.

To register an object:

1. In the View List under Application Data, click Objects.
2. Right-click an item, point to Advanced, and click Register new object. The Project Settings dialog box opens.
3. On the Language-Independent Object Properties tab, specify a media file (Data1.hdr file).
4. Specify any other desired settings, and click OK.
