Oh, and in case it matters, I forgot to say that I'm using Apple's PackageMaker 3.0.3 and my targets are all Leopard. What do "Start xyz" options for "On Failure" of a choice requirement for a Package Install Choice do? If you try to add Requirements to a Package Install Choice, the "On Failure" pane has 3 configurable actions in it on the left side: "Selected", "Enabled", and "Hidden". Each of these has three options: "Unchanged", "Yes" and "No". I think I understand what these do. If the the test fails, these actions change the corresponding "Initial State" selection on the "Configuration" pane for that Package Install Choice. On the right side of the same "On Failure" pane, there are also 3 configurable actions in it on the right side: "Start Selected", "Start Enabled" and "Start Hidden". Each of these also has three options: "Unchanged", "Yes" and "No". I can't seem to figure out exactly what these do. I think part of the problem may be the name. For example, the "Start" in "Start Selected" suggests to me that it has something to do with the initial state of "Selected". But that would seem to be in conflict with the "Initial State" selections that I made back in the "Configuration" pane. Further, they are part of the "On Failure" pane, so that suggests that they are only applied if the test fails. That would seem to make them useless as the actions on the left would immediately over ride them. The January 09 version of the "PackageMaker User Guide" has a brief description of choice requirements on page 23. But it doesn't say what these are about. It refers to the "Software Delivery Guide", but I can't find anything helpful there either. I've tried running a few tests, but haven't seen any results that make sense. Admittedly, part of the problem may be that I may be looking for the wrong thing. This email sent to cook.p.d@comcast.net This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
