Handheld installation support

Post by BobSchaefer »

My question is (I think) relatively simple, does InstallAware support installing applications to handhelds through ActiveSync/Windows Mobility Center? Currently, I"m using InstallAware version 9, if support was added in later versions I would need to know that as well, assuming its not supported in version 9. If it does, where can I find information about how to put together an installer for handhelds? Thanks.

Dear User,

InstallAware tool it is expecially designed to Windows OS Desktop installations. Because of this, you can only delivery setup to Windows Desktop OS.

Of course you can detect during setup execution, if a particular device it is connected or not, but to handle this you should use embedded "call Dll command" to have access to specific Windows API that you may need.

Hope this helps you.
