I have a pretty simple scenario that I was hoping somebody could help me with. I'm using InstallShield 11.5 multiplatform.
Basically, I have two features available for selection within the Feature Dialog window. By default, InstallShield will allow users to select one, both or none of the features.
I would like to be able to stop users from being able to deselect both features, i.e. force them to select one or both features. As I don't care which feature is chosen by the user, I can't set a feature as being "Required".
I have to assume that there is a way of doing this, but for the life of me I can't figure it out. Can I check when a feature has been selected/deselected from within the Feature dialog window and based upon the result disable the 'Next' button? If so, how do I do that? If not, how else would I get this to work?
Add the following to the Standard Feature Panel Swing code public void queryExitFeature(com.installshield.event.ui.ISDialogQueryContext context) { String F1act = context.getServices().resolveString("$P(feature1.active)"); String F2act = context.getServices().resolveString("$P(feature2.active)"); if (F1act.equals("false") && F2act.equals("false")){ context.getWizardUI().displayUserMessage( context.getServices().resolveString( context.getISFrame().getTitle()), context.getServices().resolveString( "Atleast one Feature must be selected"), UserInputRequest.MESSAGE); //context.logEvent(this, Log.ERROR, "Feature Test"); context.setReturnValue(false); } }
