    Existing Packages That Have A User Control Custom Installer?

    In the Package Actions intro document it says "if you need to perform more advanced installation routines, you will have to build a custom installer (.ascx based) or will have to build your own package action using the IPackageAction Interface..." Can anyone point me to an existing package that uses either one of these approaches so that I can see them in action, to better understand the process.

    Thanks
    Will

    Blog4umbraco has an installer and you can get the source on codeplex. http://blog4umbraco.codeplex.com/

    You can also just search codeplex for umbraco and many packages, especially any very complex will have an installer.

    Thanks for the info!  I'm new to building packages so that example is helpful.

    HI,

    If you want to learn more about  Package actions, I suggest you checkout the Package Action Contrib project on codeplex. Loads of extra actions are added and you can download the source to learn how to build your own actions.

    Cheers,

    Richard

    Tribal Yet Another Media Picker 4 also uses a custom installer to update an appSetting in the web.config.
