    I remember seeing somewhere docs about adding custom installation steps to sis, but now I can't find it.

    Basically I would like to display an EULA or similar during installation time. It is a Qt app that is using Smart Installer.
    Can this be achieved from Qt Creator, or is some customization of the pkg file required?

    Could some kind soul point to the documentation?

    Thanks,

      Hi,

      One of my colleagues pointed me to this link:

      http://library.forum.nokia.com/index.jsp?topic=/S60_5th_Edition_Cpp_Developers_Library/GUID-35228542-8C95-4849-A73F-2B4F082F0C44/sdk/doc_source/ToolsAndUtilities94/Installing-ref/PKG_format/index.html

      There may be a simpler way via QtCreator, but if there is I'm personally not aware of it (but I haven't done much Symbian development, so I could very well be wrong).

      Cheers,
      Chris.

        Thanks a lot, indeed it seems that it can be done via the package file, the secret sauce seems to be a section like this:

        ;Some text files to display in dialogs during the installation. These files are not installed.
        ;'TC' continues with the installation after displaying the dialog.
        ;'TA' presents the user with an option to abort the installation.
        "text\textfilec.txt"-"", FT, TC
        "text\textfilea.txt"-"", FT, TA
