Installer.Install Method

public virtual void Install (
	IDictionary stateSaver
)

public void Install (
	IDictionary stateSaver
)

public function Install (
	stateSaver : IDictionary
)

Parameters

stateSaver

An IDictionary used to save information needed to perform a commit, rollback, or uninstall operation.

Notes to Inheritors If you override the Install method in a derived class, be sure to call the base class's Install method first in your derived method. The Install method calls the Install method of each installer contained in the Installers property of this instance. After the contained installers run, this method updates the IDictionary object (specified through the stateSaver parameter) to reflect the status of the installation. The IDictionary should be empty when passed to the Install method. If all the Install methods succeed, the Commit method is called. Otherwise, the Rollback method is called.

The following example demonstrates the Install method of the Installer class. A class is derived from the Installer base class and the Install method is overridden.

// Override the 'Install' method of the Installer class.
public override void Install( IDictionary mySavedState )
{
   base.Install( mySavedState );
   // Code maybe written for installation of an application.
   Console.WriteLine( "The Install method of 'MyInstallerSample' has been called" );

// Override the 'Install' method of the Installer class.
public void Install(IDictionary mySavedState)
{
    super.Install(mySavedState);

    // Code maybe written for installation of an application.
    Console.WriteLine("The Install method of"
        +" 'MyInstallerSample' has been called");
 //Install
