Watchtower Library is a Bible study aid research tool
Nothing was special about this installation as it's a platinum rated app:
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=1485
I delete a .lnk file that is created on the users desktop after wine installs the program. Is this typical? (I'd hate to have a dead link on the desktop)

Also a question for those more experienced.  On line 37 of my script I ask the user for a file, (it should be a Setup.exe file) but I never verified that they select a Setup.exe file.  Is there a standard way that I should verify the user has selected the correct installer file (at least the correct name)?

Hi,

I delete a .lnk file that is created on the users desktop after wine installs the program. Is this typical? (I'd hate to have a dead link on the desktop)

Quote from wblake0000

I would have thought PoL's disabling of winemenubuilder would have prevented that, strange...

[code language=playonlinux]
   POL_SetupWindow_check_cdrom "Setup.exe"
[/code]
There's probably a "setup.exe" on half of the install CDROMs, so it's not a very effective test to make sure the right media is in the tray...

[code language=playonlinux]
   POL_SetupWindow_browse "$(eval_gettext 'Please select the $TITLE {Setup.exe} file')" "$TITLE"
[/code]
Better stick to standard message "Please select the setup file to run." to avoid extra translation work (http://www.playonmac.com/en/dev-documentation-10.html).

To answer your last question, since PlayOnLinux/PlayOnMac 4.1.4, POL_SetupWindow_browse supports more parameters:

    # Usage: POL_SetupWindow_browse [message] [title] [default value] [Supported file types]

Since older versions will disregard the extra parameters and still work, no version check should be necessary. And yes, it's undocumented :(

Thanks for the clarification I misunderstood the operation of that function.  I have corrected the script to use a more unique file as the check :)

I definitely would like to minimize any translation work, however I would like to specify that it is a Setup.exe that we are looking for, as there is a Start.exe, SetupMobile.exe, and autorun.exe all in the installation directory.  Could I use the phrase: "Please select the setup file to run {Setup.exe}" instead?

Thanks for that insight. I have added the additional filter to guarantee only exe files can be selected.  Could I also use the following code:

?

   DONE="FALSE"
   while [ "$DONE" = "FALSE" ]
   do
      POL_SetupWindow_browse "$(eval_gettext 'Please select the setup file to run {Setup.exe}')" "$TITLE" "" "exe"
      # Verify a the Setup.exe was selected and not another .exe on the CD
      if [ ${APP_ANSWER:(-9)} = "Setup.exe" ]
      then
         DONE="TRUE"
      else
         POL_SetupWindow_message "$(eval_gettext 'Setup.exe was not selected, Please select the setup file to run {Setup.exe}')" "$(eval_gettext 'File Selection Error')"
      fi
   done
   POL_Wine start /unix "$APP_ANSWER"


This verifies that a Setup.exe was selected (not perfect as it could be the wrong Setup.exe) but closer.

If this is acceptable then here is my corrected script:

Personally I would have gone for just
?
1
POL_SetupWindow_browse "$(eval_gettext 'Please select the setup file to run.')" "$TITLE" "" "Windows Executables (*.exe)|*.exe;*.EXE"

I don't know how other maintainers feel about it, but choice is yours, you can submit your script for validation as-is if you want.
Click on "Supported software" on the left, then "New installer".

Thanks petch, yeah especially since I have that extra check in there now, that makes a lot of sense.  And thanks for the more descriptive filter, I don't see "(Windows Executables (.exe)" on my mac but that would be better.  I have corrected that message so I'll plan on submitting the following script:

Just curious if I could get some guidance. I submitted this script about a month ago, and I haven't heard anything back, I'm curious if I missed some correspondence. How long does it normally take to get a script approved? Thanks!

I found a "watchtower" entry in the repository, but it's empty and has not been submitted for validation... (?)

Well, shucks. I must have messed it up. I'll read through the instructions and try again.

Well I really goofed it up, I submitted "watchtower" for validation and it was blank (not sure how I did that). So I created a new installer "watchtower library" that should have the script in there. I didn't see any place to put the icons, are they just grabbed from the post here?
