Method Detail

initialise

void initialise()

Initializes the listener.

Throws:

IzPackException - for any error

isFileListener

boolean isFileListener()

Determines if the listener should be notified of every file and directory installation / deletion.

For InstallerListeners: If true, the #beforeFile and #afterFile methods will be invoked for every installed file, and #beforeDir, and #afterDir invoked for each directory creation. For UnnstallerListeners: If true, the #beforeDelete(File) and #afterDelete(File) methods will be invoked for each file.

Listeners that return true should ensure they don't do any long running operations, to avoid performance issues.

Returns:

true if the listener should be notified, otherwise false
