http://bugzilla.wpkg.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42 --- Comment #14 from Tomasz Chmielewski <mangoo at wpkg.org> 2008-02-04 21:26:17 --- Just to add to the discussion - see thread "wpkg via Group Policies" here - and an idea of using mailslots: http://lists.wpkg.org/pipermail/wpkg-users/2008-February/thread.html#2627 Basically, the idea is to have a program which would tell WPKG service what to display, i.e., consider you have the following install instructions for a package: <install cmd='unzip_everything.exe' /> <install cmd='instal_fonts.exe' /> <install cmd='install_plugins.exe' /> <install cmd='install_main_program.exe' /> We could start a program which tells WPKG Client to display what we want, for example: <install cmd='%WPKGPATH%\wpkgMessage.exe /message "Installing Big Package..."' /> <install cmd='unzip_everything.exe' /> <install cmd='unzip_everything.exe' /> <install cmd='%WPKGPATH%\wpkgMessage.exe /message "Installing fonts for Big Package..."' /> <install cmd='instal_fonts.exe' /> <install cmd='%WPKGPATH%\wpkgMessage.exe /message "Installing plugins for Big Package..."' /> <install cmd='install_plugins.exe' /> <install cmd='%WPKGPATH%\wpkgMessage.exe /message "Installing remaining files for Big Package..."' /> <install cmd='install_main_program.exe' /> <install cmd='%WPKGPATH%\wpkgMessage.exe /clear' /> It looks like a clean and a very elastic solution.
