Hi,
I want to do some custom work on the Windows Set-up for my application. The
things include making some connection string changes in config file, creating a
dsn etc based upon user input from the Set-up wizard User Interface.
For this purpose i have created a Textbox user interface having 4 textboxes
which takes in user name, password, database name, server etc. So far so good.
Now to access these User Inputs i've wriiten a class (customary Installer
class), from where the usual process of creating and validating connection
string and making of DSN would take place.
HOWEVER, i am unable to retrieve these user inputs. Below is the code from
Installer.CS
public override void Install ( System.Collections.IDictionary stateSaver )
{
try{
if(this.Context!=null)
{
StringDictionary parameters = Context.Parameters;
string[] keys =new string[parameters.Count];
parameters.Keys.CopyTo(keys,0);
#region "Region 1: Set the StateServer collection values"
for(int intKeys=0;intKeys<keys.Length;intKeys++)
{
if(keys[intKeys].Equals("DATABASE"))
{
stateSaver.Add("database",parameters[keys[intKeys]].ToString());
}
else if(keys[intKeys].Equals("SERVER") )
{
stateSaver.Add("server",parameters[keys[intKeys]].ToString());
}
else if(keys[intKeys].Equals("USERNAME"))
{
stateSaver.Add("username",parameters[keys[intKeys]].ToString());
}
else if(keys[intKeys].Equals("PASSWORD"))
{
stateSaver.Add("password",parameters[keys[intKeys]].ToString());
}
parameters collection has 4 values and the keys include
assemblypath, logfile, Installtype, action
Any suggestions there.
Cheers!!!
