[izpack-users] Requesting reboot at end of uninstallation.

[Miraodb]

Hi scott,

do you really want to go through the pain of a listener for such a small
thing.... that's the question.
The way i see it, it's very tiny change and a very specific need.
Why don't you just add the label and text into UninstallerFrame.java on your
side ?
So easy and quick.

Something like that:

RebootLabel = new JLabel(langpack.getString("uninstaller.reboot"),
icons.getImageIcon("warning"), JLabel.TRAILING);
buildConstraints(gbConstraints, 0, 0, 2, 1, 1.0, 0.0);
gbConstraints.anchor = GridBagConstraints.WEST;
gbConstraints.fill = GridBagConstraints.NONE;
layout.addLayoutComponent(RebootLabel , gbConstraints);
contentPane.add(RebootLabel );

Obviously, gbConstraint can and should be changed depending on the layout
you wish for.

This way you can even keep the internationalization just by adding the
string for uninstaller.reboot in the locale
so you could add

in eng.xml:

<str id="uninstaller.reboot" txt="Some features need a reboot to be
uninstalled successfully. Please restart once finished uninstalling."/>

and there goes for the others......

Recompile the sources and rebuild your installer.

Hope that helps,
fabrice
