Info Panel Text Customizable Per PlatformIs there a way to permit different text resources to be displayed in the
Info Panel? I ask because I would like to provide "quick-start" instructions for our application in that panel and these are different for each platform. On a hunch I tried this in the resources section, but it doesn't work. I'm including it here to give you a sense of what I'm trying to do. <res id="InfoPanel.info.unix" src="unix_readme.txt"/> <res id="InfoPanel.info.windows" src="windows_readme.txt"/> --- Bruce Garrett Systems Software Engineer The Space Telescope Science Institute Baltimore, Maryland.

Re: Info Panel Text Customizable Per Platform
Hi,
This seems not to be working. I get an error message in the Info Panel saying that it cannot load the resource: Error : could not load the info text ! Here's my resource section: <resources> <res id="Installer.image" src="hubble.png" /> <res id="Heading.image" src="stgms.png" /> <res id="CustomLangpack.xml_eng" src="CustomLangpack_eng.xml" /> <res id="InfoPanel.info.windows" src="windows_readme.txt" /> <res id="InfoPanel.info.linux" src="unix_readme.txt" /> <res id="InfoPanel.info.unix" src="unix_readme.txt" /> <res id="TargetPanel.dir.unix" src="admin_default_install_dir.txt" /> <res id="TargetPanel.dir.windows" src="admin_default_windows_install_dir.txt" /> <res id="shortcutSpec.xml" src="admin_default_shortcut_spec.xml" /> <res id="Win_shortcutSpec.xml" src="admin_windows_shortcut_specification.xml" /> </resources> My panels section: <panels> <panel classname="HelloPanel" /> <panel classname="TargetPanel" /> <panel classname="SummaryPanel" /> <panel classname="InstallPanel" /> <panel classname="ShortcutPanel" /> <panel classname="InfoPanel" condition="izpack.windowsinstall" id="info.windows" /> <panel classname="InfoPanel" condition="izpack.linuxinstall" id="info.linux" /> <panel classname="InfoPanel" condition="izpack.unixinstall" id="info.unix" /> <panel classname="SimpleFinishPanel" /> </panels> And the conditions section I added for unix support: <conditions> <condition type="java" id="izpack.unixinstall"> <java><class>com.izforge.izpack.util.OsVersion</class><field>IS_UNIX</field></java> <returnvalue type="boolean">true</returnvalue> </condition> </conditions> These should be, unless I made a spelling mistake I can't find, what you gave me to use. The compiler doesn't complain about any of this. The text files are there in the directory I am compiling from, and when I look inside the finished jar file I can see them and view them. However they're listed in the jar file as: InfoPanel.info.info.windows InfoPanel.info.info.linux InfoPanel.info.info.unix I've tried experimenting with naming the resources similarly and that does not help. Is there something else I am missing here? -Bruce Kjell Braden wrote: Bruce Garrett schrieb: |

Re: Info Panel Text Customizable Per PlatformHi,
I have it working now, but with the HTMLInfoPanel. That panel works with your suggested code for the InfoPanel just fine. I simply changed the references from InfoPanel to HTMLInfoPanel and it worked. So I have my solution. Thank you for your help. -Bruce > Kjell Braden wrote: >> Bruce Garrett schrieb: >> >>> Is there a way to permit different text resources to be displayed in the >>> Info Panel?
