[izpack-devel] RegistryDefaultHandler problem

[Bartz, Klaus]

Hi "fxa",
you should not call RegistryDefaultHandler.getInstance() in the
constructor
else in the method beforePacks (see RegistryInstallerListener) because
you
need the AutomatedInstallData object which you gets in beforePacks.
After
getInstance you have also to call verify(idata) with the idata object
(see
RegistryInstallerListener.initializeRegistryHandler.

Without verify(idata) the default handler do not work right, but he have
to exist. Therefore there is also an other problem in your installation.
Do you have add the dll into your jar file via 

	<native type="3rdparty" name="COIOSHelper.dll" stage="both">
		<os family="windows"/>
	</native>

?
call
java -DTRACE=TRUE -jar <Your Install>.jar
After language dialog there should be a line like 

Ctor OSClassHelper for com.coi.tools.os.izpack.Registry is good: true

If not good: true, most you have forgotten the dll.

Hope it helps

Klaus
