Hi

I'm creating an installer for some software that requires either Snow Leopard or Intel Leopard, but will only run on a Snow Leopard system that has a Core 2 Duo processor, (its fine on Core Duo systems running Leopard). I'm trying to work out a way that I can specify this in the requirements section of PackageMaker.app but I can't find a way to build up this requirement.

Is something like this possible with PackageMaker? If so how? If not any ideas how I can achieve this another way?

This is possible but you need to write a custom JavaScript function.

I'm not sure a requirement based on a CPU sub family is a good idea. So I switched it to 2 cores or more.

I mean on Snow Leopard it'll not run on a Core Duo, i.e. on Snow Leopard it requires a 64 bit capable machine, but on Intel Leopard it'll run on a 32bit or 64bit capable machine. The number of cores is irrelevant.

That being said, it could look like this:

function complexRequirement() {        if ((system.compareVersions(system.version.ProductVersion, '10.6') >= 0)        {                // Snow Leopard

               if (system.sysctl('hw.ncpu')>=2)                {                        return true;                }        }        else if ((system.compareVersions(system.version.ProductVersion, '10.5') >= 0)        {                // Leopard

               // Leopard can run on PowerPC so we need to exclude them

               if (system.sysctl('hw.cputype')==7)                {                        if (system.sysctl('hw.ncpu')>=2)                        {                                return true;                        }                }

       }

       return false; }

How do I go about using such a custom function? Cheers Adam _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
