Changing When Custom Actions Are Launched
InstallShield 2012 Spring Express Edition
The items in the Custom Actions view are organized by chronological order, according to when they are launched during installation, maintenance, or uninstallation. When you add a custom action to your project, you specify when the custom action should be launched by adding the action to the appropriate installation, maintenance, or uninstallation item.
To change when a custom action is launched, do one of the following:
|
•
|
Drag the custom action from its current location to the new location. |
|
•
|
Right-click the custom action and click Move Up or Move Down. |
|
•
|
Click the custom action and then press CTRL+SHIFT+UP ARROW or CTRL+SHIFT+DOWN ARROW. |
The Custom Actions view is divided into the following main run-time categories:
|
•
|
Custom Actions During Installation—Actions that are scheduled during this run-time category are launched during a first-time installation of the product. |
|
•
|
Custom Actions During Maintenance—Actions that are scheduled during this run-time category are launched during modify mode and repair mode; they are also launched when the product is silently uninstalled. |
|
•
|
Custom Actions During Uninstallation—Actions that are scheduled during this run-time category are launched when the product is being uninstalled. |
