Sorry to reply to my own post, but I felt
as though I should share some other thoughts on this… you could just create
transform files with the changes that you want to make to the install. There could be additional element(s), within
the main msi/msm task, to specify each transform to apply to the msi/msm
file. Or possibly add another task
to NAntContrib that only applies installer transforms… Jim From:

[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jim Geurts It is possible add localization support to
one install database, I’m just not sure if that’s what we should
do. I would personally like to see
different databases and error templates for each language. That way dialogs/errors/action text
would not look weird if the display of a certain language exceeds the display
of another, since you could define specific width/height properties for each
control in the localized database.
The downside to this is that updates to each install database would
become repetitive and tedious. I
would like to leave this open to debate though… Also, relevant MSDN links are below: Steps for how to localize: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=""> A localization example: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=""> Jim From:

[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David I will need to create a German setup program at some point
in the future. So I will have to translate everything anyways and would like to
somehow contribute that back to the public… Can’t promise when
though ;) But we could start thinking on how to do that now already,
right? I guess I could just create a new msi template file, so that there will
be different templates for different languages. But that doesn’t look
really great to me… Ideally I would like to have one msi file in the end
that can display its UI in different languages, depending on the platform it is
executed on. Is that something for a transform?!? If anybody could point
me in the right direction how to do it in a way that I can integrate it into
NAntContrib, it would be very cool. Thanks David |
