Get Component State

This command determines if a component defined using the Define Component command is selected for installation.

Component Name

Type the name of the component here, including its full path as originally used in the Define Component command.

Selection State Variable

Type the name of the variable that will receive TRUE if the component is selected and FALSE if it is not.

 Notes

• In wizard generated installs, the SELECTED variable is used to test selection of each component.
• InstallAware calculates disk space requirements for each component in connection with the Get Component State command. Each installation action following a Get Component State command is added to the disk cost of the component that the command checks the selection of. You must use Get Component State commands for each of your components for accurate disk space requirements reporting.
