I am updating our 4.X Smartupdate Jar file to run as a Netscape 6 XPInstall
file accessible by a link on a web page.
In the example files I have come across - install.js has routines at the
start called updateWinReg4Ren8dot3() and prepareRen8dot3(listLongFilePaths)
before the main user code routine starts. Are these DEFAULT code routines
used in all install.js file within the XPI install file that I do not need
to touch - what are they for?.
I want to ask this because I wish to create an XPI install file that will
install EXE, TMT,FON,DLL's files used in the
previous smartupdate JAR file into a windows/system32/webterm directory - as
before. There is no mention in these
routines about other directories such as installing to 'windows' directory.
Is it necessary to add anything to these files
or do I simply add a getFolder("Windows") in the main code area following
these default routines. Is this the correct
way to do this - to add a folder name which is recognised by Netscape as the
new destination of where the extracted
files go into?
