Adding an Installation for a Palm OS Device to Your Project

InstallShield 2012 Spring Express Edition

You can use InstallShield to create an installation package for Palm OS devices.

To add an installation for a Palm OS device:

1. Prepare your application by compiling your code in a development tool that supports Palm OS.
2. Create the desktop installation that includes the Palm OS files that are to be installed on Palm OS devices.
3. Add a Palm OS installation to your project:
a. In the View List under Specify Application Data, click Mobile Devices.
b. Right-click the Mobile Device Installations explorer and click New Palm OS. The Palm OS Wizard opens.
c. Follow the wizard panels to customize the installation.

When you add an installation for a Palm OS device to your project, InstallShield automatically adds it to all of the features that you selected to associate with the Palm OS application.

When you build a release for the installation, InstallShield creates an installation that installs your application files to the Palm OS device via a storage card, or they can be downloaded directly to the device over a network or the Internet. For more information, see Building an Installation for a Mobile Device.
