An Event Mapping links a control to an installer event and allows it to update itself in response. Installer events are generated internally by Windows Installer and include such things as periodic progress messages, changes in installation folder or state, etc.
Tarma Installer has no direct equivalent for event mappings. The Tarma Installer
runtime engine uses normal product
variables to report its progress and state changes and controls can be
linked to these variables. See the ProgressBar
and StaticText control documentation
for some examples.
This pane contains the following attributes and options.
| Attribute | Description |
|---|---|
| Event name | Enter the name of the event to which the control must be linked, or click ... (browse) to open the Select Event Mapping dialog box to select one of the available events. |
| Attribute | Enter the attribute for the event, if any. Some events, for example SetProgress, require an additional argument; you can enter that here. |
