[izpack-devel] RegistryDefaultHandler problem

[Bartz, Klaus]

Hi fxa,
do you speaking about performing uninstall under Eclipse with sources 
arranged before the jar file? There the situation is much different
from the one calling uninstall directly.  
If you would debug uninstall, see the hints about debugging in the docu.
You can determine the directory where the dlls are stored for install
and uninstall with the VM param
DLL_PATH e.g. set VM arguments in Eclipse debugging to

-DTRACE=TRUE -DLOG=true -DDLL_PATH=%IZHOME%\bin\native\DebugDir

Put the two dlls directly into the new dir (not in a subdir).

Alternate you can place the dll in the dir where the Java part of the
native class exist, e.g. 

%ECLIPSE_BIN_ROOT%\com\coi\tools\os\izpack

for COIOSHelper.dll (Registry.class is the Java part)
If you would know what's happen, debug 

com.izforge.izpack.util.Librarian.loadLibrary

Cheers 

Klaus
