To Create/Evaluate custom rule follow these simple steps

Step1 : Open your InstallAnywhere project.
Step2 : Go to "Rules" -> "Code Rules".
Step3 : Click on "Add" to create a new code rule.
Step4 : Give your rule a name (e.g., "Check if current user is admin").
Step5 : Paste the following code into the code editor:

import com.zerog.ia.api.pub.CustomCodeRule;
import java.io.IOException;

public class AdminCheckRule implements CustomCodeRule {
@Override
public String getDefaultValue() {
return null;
}

@Override
public String execute() {
if (isAdmin()) {
return "User is admin";
} else {
return "User is not admin";
}
}

private boolean isAdmin() {
String osName = System.getProperty("os.name").toLowerCase();
if (osName.contains("windows")) {
try {
Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("cmd.exe /c net session");
int resultCode = process.waitFor();
return resultCode == 0;
} catch (IOException | InterruptedException e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
return false; // For non-Windows systems or if an exception occurs
}
}

Step6 : Click on "OK" to save the rule.
