Product Details Page - Windows Mobile Project
In this page you can specify the application name, the company name, as well as the default installation directory.
Product Name
The complete name of your application.
The application name is restricted to a length of 40 characters. This is because applications are registered on the device with a specific name for uninstallation purposes, which is created by concatenating the company name and the application name. The format used is: <PROVIDER> <APPNAME>
You can use the %AppName% macro in your project in order to refer to the application name. The substitution is performed at build time.
Company Name
The full name of your company.
The company name is restricted to a length of 32 characters, for the same reason mentioned above.
You can use the %Provider% macro in your project in order to refer to the company name. The substitution is performed at build time.
Application Folder
Do not allow user to select installation directory.
The user will not be prompted to select an installation volume (device dependent). Every file will be installed in the directory specified in the Files and Folders page.
Allow user to select installation directory and provide the following default.
The user will be prompted to select an installation volume (device dependent) or to keep the default location.
Note that not all devices support the “Do not allow user to select installation directory” option, so it is recommended that you use the second option. In this case, the user is prompted to select the installation volume only if the device has more than one storage volume available.
The default installation directory specification can include references to the company name and application name, by using the %Provider% and %AppName% macros. These will be resolved at build time to the values you have entered in this page.
