Oops, all OK there.

2009/5/22 Malkolm <the.m...@gmail.com>

Im not a specialist but this line looks questionably

            target="$INSTALL_PATH\prog\prog_windows.bat"

Maybe INSTALL_PATH should have trailing "$" symbol?

Hi,

Thanks for your answer but I’m not english and I don’t understand what you’re saying about “trailing “$” symbol”.

Can you give an exemple of what you’re talking about?

 

I tried

target="$INSTALL_PATH\prog\prog_windows.bat"

 

target="$INSTALL_PATH$\prog\prog_windows.bat"

target="$$INSTALL_PATH\prog\prog_windows.bat"

 

target="%INSTALL_PATH\prog\prog_windows.bat"

target="%INSTALL_PATH%\prog\prog_windows.bat"

 

target="@INSTALL_PATH\prog\prog_windows.bat"

target="@INSTALL_PATH@\prog\prog_windows.bat"

 

But my panel isn’t shown either.

 

Cheers

Bastien

Hi,

I think the problem is the <createForPack name="foo" /> really requiring
the name of the pack, not the id (ie. the content of the pack's name
attribute).
The other problem is related to installer being unable to find the
ShellLink.dll, I think. Not sure why, however.

-Kjell

[DURAND Bastien]

Thanks for your answer,
The problem don't come from the "<createForPack/>" because if I comment it doesn't change anything.
So the problem seems to be the shellLink.dll

Do someone no how to resolve this issue?

Cheers,
Bastien

Apparently, my problem comes from

<native type="izpack" name="ShellLink.dll">

            <os family="windows"/>

      </native>

which doesn’t load ShellLink.dll.

 

What did I miss when I created my project? Is there a specific way to start an IzPack project in Eclipse to integrate this option works?

 

Any clue? Because it’s one of my two last problems to close my installer L

Bastien,

you got me wrong here. You said, if you comment the createForPack tag,
you get a different problem. So, you have two problems:

1. ShortcutPanel not showing (related to the createForPack)
2. failing to create the shortcuts (related to ShellLink.dll not loading)

I told you the solution for 1.: either fix your createForPack tag, or
remove it.

For 2.: do you try to install it on a x64 machine in a 64-bit jvm? Does
the bin/native/izpack directory in your local IzPack installation
contain a ShellLink.dll *and* a ShellLink_x64.dll? Optionally, check the
created .jar file with your favorite unpacker (7-zip, for example) and
see whether it contains a native/ShellLink.dll and/or
native/ShellLink_x64.dll

-kjell

[DURAND Bastien]

I apologize, i see later that what you said was also true and it is now fix.

 

In my jar, I have the following folders and files :

 

/res/

/res/allMyRessources

/packs/

/packs/MyPacks

/org/apache/regexp/lotsOfFiles

/native/ShellLink.dll

/META-INF/MANIFEST.MF

/langpacks/fra.xml

/langpacks/eng.xml

/img/lotsOfImages

/com/izforge/…

/com/incors/…

/vars

/rules

/panelsOrder

/packs.info

/langpacks.info

/installerrequirements

/info

/GUIPrefs

/dynvariables

/customData

 

And I’m not using x64 jvm so ShellLink_x64.dll isn’t necessary?

 

Thanks a lot to search and give me clues J

 

Cheers

Bastien
