Editor installation script

 

Clicking on the menu Tools/Editor installation script, opens the editor that will edit the installation script or any other current script CyberInstaller through several tools which facilitate the treatment.


This tool is activated at any time with the simple press of <F8>.

Note: This tool is particularly aimed at experienced users, since the change in the installation script was left over in a completely automatic, CyberInstaller Studio. The change could lead to manual errors, despite correct syntax-checking tool, may impair the proper conduct of the installation package. This is useful only when changes to the script for, in the case where, for example, want to change it to surpass certain limits imposed by CyberInstaller Studio or change the behavior of the installation process in a way not foreseen by CyberInstaller Studio (but always standards-compliant CyberInstaller).

 

 

 CyberInstaller Studio - 34.1. Use

 

Once you click on the appropriate menu item will open the editor. The interface looks like a normal text editor, with a large area in which to view/edit the script, a menu bar and toolbar (which still serves as only as a shortcut to the menu items more useful). In addition, left the main area, there is a navigation pane with a list of all sections of the script: selecting one you will go directly to the corresponding section.

 

The voices on the left are: Interface installer, Requirements, Installing a read-only, silent installation, Setup interaction minimum, install update, activation system rollback, View details, title application to install, Author application package Loans, Logo on background, license, readme files that display first destination folder, create additional folders, applications to run first, components and libraries, Fonts, keys and registry values to create extensions to associate attributes to set, user selection by default, Links to create, display Readme later applications to run later, the system restarts.

 

When you open the editor, it immediately displays the installation script on the current package. If you want to create a script from scratch or open an existing one, you must use the menu items or the corresponding buttons on the toolbar.

 

Changing the script is as edit any text file by using Notepad or any text editor you go to the section on request via the navigation panel on the left, you place the cursor at the text you want to change (possibly using the horizontal and vertical scroll bars), after you edit the text in the usual way, whilst respecting the syntax imposed by scripts CyberInstaller. The syntax is ensured through the comments posted in the same script, or through the help line (activated by keystrokes <CTRL+F1>) on the current section of the script.


Once you've made your changes, you can (suggested in this order):

 check syntax

 upgrade project

Note: Updated project CyberInstaller Studio with the changes made to the script installation, you should check that all other aspects of the package match the desired behavior.  Precisely for this reason it is advisable to make changes to the script as soon as possible, preferably in the initial stage of creating the installation package. If, for example, want to make changes to the "External Applications", insert the appropriate data in step 8, after which it will enter the editor and making changes to the script installation. Finally, we will update the package with the script changed and only now you can complete the package creation (all other steps). Doing so will limit the possibility of making mistakes and being with an installation package does not correspond to their expectations.
Remember to use the special "Analyze package" to automatically detect inconsistencies in the package.
