Is there any way to build a package such that it
can check if an application is running and quit the installer if so (after
letting user know) without having to add scripts that would cause the installer
to display:
"This package contains a program that determines if
the software can be installed......"
The only related options I saw were to "Get
Application" and "Quit Application" but they do not stop the installer. For
example if the app has modified document and asks
the user to save before quitting, and the user does NOT quit, the installer
still continues as if everything is ok.
to do a wrapper is not an option (has to be an
installer package)
Or, is there a way to do an
pre-install/upgrade script that can display a message that says an app is
running and HAS to exit or quit otherwise?
(the error result at that point seems to display an
ugly "Install Failed, the following install faild: run preinstall script
for......" with no way of telling the user why or that they should quit
the app and try again)
I would think that this is too common of an issue
to not be addressed, but so far I cant seem to find any descent solution to
this.
Thank You
