Definition

Namespace:

System.Configuration.Install

Assembly:

System.Configuration.Install.dll

Initializes a new instance of the AssemblyInstaller class.

Overloads

AssemblyInstaller()	Initializes a new instance of the AssemblyInstaller class.
AssemblyInstaller(Assembly, String[])	Initializes a new instance of the AssemblyInstaller class, and specifies both the assembly to install and the command line to use when creating a new InstallContext object.
AssemblyInstaller(String, String[])	Initializes a new instance of the AssemblyInstaller class, and specifies both the file name of the assembly to install and the command line to use when creating a new InstallContext object for the assembly's installation.

AssemblyInstaller()

Initializes a new instance of the AssemblyInstaller class.

public:
 AssemblyInstaller();

public AssemblyInstaller ();

Public Sub New ()

Examples

The following example demonstrates the AssemblyInstaller constructor and the Install and Commit methods of the AssemblyInstaller class.

An AssemblyInstaller is created by invoking the AssemblyInstaller constructor. The properties of this object are set and the Install and Commit methods are called to install the MyAssembly_Install.exe assembly.

#using <System.dll>
#using <System.Configuration.Install.dll>

using namespace System;
using namespace System::Configuration::Install;
using namespace System::Collections;
using namespace System::Collections::Specialized;

      // Set the commandline argument array for 'logfile'.
      array<String^>^myString = {"/logFile=example.log"};
      
      // Create an Object* of the 'AssemblyInstaller' class.
      AssemblyInstaller^ myAssemblyInstaller = gcnew AssemblyInstaller;

      // Set the properties to install the required assembly.

      myAssemblyInstaller->Install( mySavedState );
      
      // Commit the 'MyAssembly_Install' assembly.
      myAssemblyInstaller->Commit( mySavedState );
   }

      Console::WriteLine( e );
   }

AssemblyInstaller(Assembly, String[])

Initializes a new instance of the AssemblyInstaller class, and specifies both the assembly to install and the command line to use when creating a new InstallContext object.

public:
 AssemblyInstaller(System::Reflection::Assembly ^ assembly, cli::array <System::String ^> ^ commandLine);

public AssemblyInstaller (System.Reflection.Assembly assembly, string[] commandLine);

new System.Configuration.Install.AssemblyInstaller : System.Reflection.Assembly * string[] -> System.Configuration.Install.AssemblyInstaller

Public Sub New (assembly As Assembly, commandLine As String())

Parameters

assembly

Assembly

The Assembly to install.

commandLine

String[]

The command line to use when creating a new InstallContext object for the assembly's installation. Can be a null value.

AssemblyInstaller(String, String[])

Initializes a new instance of the AssemblyInstaller class, and specifies both the file name of the assembly to install and the command line to use when creating a new InstallContext object for the assembly's installation.

public:
 AssemblyInstaller(System::String ^ fileName, cli::array <System::String ^> ^ commandLine);

public AssemblyInstaller (string fileName, string[] commandLine);

new System.Configuration.Install.AssemblyInstaller : string * string[] -> System.Configuration.Install.AssemblyInstaller

Public Sub New (fileName As String, commandLine As String())

Parameters

fileName

String

The file name of the assembly to install.

commandLine

String[]

The command line to use when creating a new InstallContext object for the assembly's installation. Can be a null value.

Examples

In the following example, an AssemblyInstaller is created by invoking the AssemblyInstaller constructor with the assembly to install and the command line argument array as parameters.

array<String^>^myStringArray = {"/logFile=example.log"};
String^ myString = "MyAssembly_Uninstall.exe";

// Create an object of the 'AssemblyInstaller' class.
AssemblyInstaller^ myAssemblyInstaller =
   gcnew AssemblyInstaller( myString,myStringArray );

string[] myStringArray = new string[ 1 ];
string myString;

// Set the commandline argument array for 'logfile'.
myStringArray[ 0 ] = "/logFile=example.log";

// Set the name of the assembly to install.
myString = "MyAssembly_Uninstall.exe";

// Create an object of the 'AssemblyInstaller' class.
AssemblyInstaller myAssemblyInstaller = new
         AssemblyInstaller( myString , myStringArray );

Dim myStringArray(0) As String
Dim myString As String


' Set the commandline argument array for 'logfile'.
myStringArray(0) = "/logFile=example.log"

' Set the name of the assembly to install.
myString = "MyAssembly_Uninstall.exe"

' Create an object of the 'AssemblyInstaller' class.
Dim myAssemblyInstaller As New AssemblyInstaller(myString, myStringArray)
