The Installer module provides the necessary functionality to manage file configuration setings, Font updates as well as Boot and System updates. The !Configure Application utilises the Installer module to handle updates to Fonts, and merging of files to the !System and !Font folders. In addition it also manages the !Boot folder.
This will ensure, for example, that proper backups and logs are kept of all changes, that modules are always correctly compared, that font messages files are updated, and that !System’s version directories are correctly maintained, and it will make it much simpler to update the PreDesktop and Desktop files.
Installer recognises each of the following objects:
| Type | Name | Further Info |
|---|---|---|
| - | Font | a compound object, consisting of all the files (of any filetype) in the same directory, provided one of which must have a name beginning with “IntMet”. The font is referenced by the directory containing the files, for example Resources:$.Fonts.Homerton.Medium |
| &FFA | Module | |
| &FEB | Obey | |
| &FD7 | TaskObey | |
| &FEA | Desktop | |
| - | DataFile | any other typed or untyped file |
