Configuring Advanced Settings for InstallShield
For example, to add a new platform, add a new child element with the appropriate
attributes and child elements. To change the configuration settings that are associated with one of
the already defined platforms, modify that platform’s elements and attributes as needed.
7. Save the Settings.xml file.
8. Ensure that your XML code is well formed; if it is not well formed, you may have problems using
InstallShield. In most cases, you can identify improperly formed XML code by opening the
Settings.xml file in Internet Explorer. You should be able to expand and contract the major
elements of the file; if you cannot, check the code for errors.
Important: Once you have modified mobile device settings in the Settings.xml file, thoroughly test your installation on
multiple platforms to ensure that your mobile device application installs as expected.
The next time that you use InstallShield, the changes that you made are available in InstallShield.
Following are some sample lines in the Settings.xml file. The sample lines include
