How to control component package names?
site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: installer-dev@lists.apple.com Thread-index: AcjS8c97twd7otySQbWd9dyjw3ZW7w== Thread-topic: How to control component package names? User-agent: Microsoft-Entourage/12.10.0.080409 PackageMaker 3 automatically names component packages when I add a component to a project. I can't find a way to control these names, or in particular their capitalization. For example, my PFEventTaps.framework folder is given the automatic name "pfeventtaps.pkg," and my Event Taps Testbench application is automatically given the name "eventTapsTestbench.pkg." (I can't make out the logic that causes one of them to have all its capital letters converted to lowercase, while the other has only its first capital letter converted to lower case.) This is unfortunate, because Installer displays these names as is during installation. I would rather the user see that "PFEventTaps" or "PFEventTaps Framework" is currently being installed, than "pfeventtaps." Changing the package identifier in PackageMaker has no effect. Naming the install choices has no effect, either. The latter is especially surprising, because I would have expected the editable installer choice name to be used for this purpose as well as for the purpose of populating the customize dialog in Installer. I suppose I could change the component package names via script, but I fear that this might interfere with the functioning of the installer package. Can anybody steer me in a useful direction on this? -- Bill Cheeseman - bill@cheeseman.name Quechee Software, Quechee, Vermont, USA www.quecheesoftware.com PreFab Software - www.prefabsoftware.com _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
