IzPack 3.1.0 pre5 (Unstable)

Sections: Mac OS X, Unix

Added: Fri, Oct 12th 2001 14:42 UTC (6 years, 10 months ago)

Updated: Fri, May 11th 2007 14:30 UTC (1 year, 3 months ago)

About:
IzPack is a powerful Java installer builder. It is able to create lightweight and modular installers. You have the choice of the installer panels you want to use (some can do the same job, so that you can select the one you prefer), and you even have the choice of the kind of installer that you want to use. IzPack doesn't use any portion of native code, it is designed to be fully independent from the operating system that runs it. It is very easy for the end user with a properly installed JVM to use an installer made with IzPack, since a single "java -jar installer.jar" will launch it.

Release focus: Major feature enhancements

Changes:
Elmar's new UserInputPanel documentation is now included. A panel can now be added several times in an installation. This is mostly useful for the new UserInputPanel. The installer generation was separated from the 'dist' target in the Ant building process. The new target is 'generate.installer'. The com.izforge.izpack.util.EtchedBorder class was moved to com.izforge.izpack.gui. The class was also rewritten because the original code was introduced with a proprietary license notice.
