The CD autorun screen automatically appears when a user inserts a customized Mozilla CD into a CD-ROM drive. The standard CD autorun screen lets your users easily install Mozilla or read installation instructions before they begin installation. You can customize some aspects of this screen, such as the title bar text and background, using the CCK tool.

If you're planning to distribute a Mozilla installer on a CD, you might want to make more customizations to the standard CD autorun screen than the CCK tool can implement. This chapter describes the manual customizations to the CD autorun screen that you can make, if you wish, to the installation files generated by the CCK tool.

Include additional files or software on the CD. You can add new screens and buttons to the CD autorun screen that give users easy access to the directories on the CD that contain these files, so that users don't have to browse through the directories on the CD to find them. You can also include a button in the CD autorun screen that opens a <code>readme.txt </code>file, so users have easy access to information about these additional files. (For information about adding up to two additional installers with the CCK tool, see <a href="installer_cck.htm#13833" >Chapter 9 "Preparing to Create the Installer</a>."

Before manually customizing the standard CD autorun screen, use the CCK tool to create a Mozilla installer that includes the CD autorun screen. Make sure you select the checkbox labeled "Include CD autorun screen" on the Gathering Information screen. Checking this box causes CCK to include the files associated with the CD autorun screen when it creates your customized Mozilla installer. After the CCK tool builds the installer, verify that the CD autorun customizations are correct.

The CD autorun screen is a standard Windows executable program that automatically launches when users insert the CD in a CD-ROM drive.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class="text">
|
|
<a name="14344"> </a>
|
|
When you create your customized Mozilla installer, the CCK tool places the CD Autorun files in this location:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
<a name="14346"></a>
|
|
<em>installation_directory</em>\CCKTool\Configs\<em>my_config</em>\Output
|
|
|
|
</code>
|
|
</p><p class="text">
|
|
<a name="14348"> </a>
|
|
When you are finished editing the CD autorun screen files, you use the contents of the <code>Output</code> directory to create your CD layout.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class="text">
|
|
<a name="14350"> </a>
|
|
These files and directories are associated with the CD autorun screen:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
The <code>Nsetup32.exe</code> program (the Autorun program) and the <code>rshell.ini</code> file are both located in the directory <code>Output\Shell\Nsetup32\</code>. The <code>rshell.ini</code> file contains all of the custom settings and flags that control the appearance and function of the CD autorun screen.
|
|
<a name="14351"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
<code>setup.exe</code>, <code>launch.ini</code>, and <code>autorun.inf</code> are located in the <code>Output</code> directory, which is the root of the CD layout. They control the automatic launch of the Autorun program and the CD autorun screen. The <code>launch.ini</code> file points to the location of the <code>Nsetup32.exe</code> autorun program and its associated file, <code>rshell.ini</code>. If the Autorun screen doesn't automatically launch, users can double-click the setup.exe file.
|
|
<a name="15244"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p class="text">
|
|
<a name="14362"> </a>
|
|
In addition to controlling the appearance of the CD autorun screen, the <code>rshell.ini</code> file also links any number of CD autorun screens together using buttons. The buttons can also point to any installers or files included on your CD that you want users to be able to access.

To customize the standard autorun screen or add new screens, you'll need:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Aa standard text editor for editing the <code>rshell.ini</code> file.

<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|

</li><br>
|
|
|

<li>
|
|
A graphics editing program, for creating any custom bitmap images that you want to include as background or button images in the Autorun screens.
|
|
<a name="14376"> </a>
|

|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p class="text">
|
|
<a name="14377"> </a>
|
|
You can include one or more directories inside the shell directory to store the custom bitmap images used by the autorun screens. Depending on the CD layout you want to create, you can also include directories for additional items such as applications that you want users to be able to install by clicking buttons in the CD autorun screen.

Before you start editing the <code>rshell.ini</code> file, you'll need to determine the directory structure on the CD so that you know how to specify the pathnames of files that you want to be accessible through the Autorun screens. You do this by creating a staging area on your hard disk that exactly represents the final CD layout you intend to use.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p class="text">

To create a CD staging area:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ol type="1">
|

Inside the <code>Staging\Shell</code> directory, you'll find a directory called <code>bmps</code> in which you'll store the custom background bitmap images for any new CD autorun screens you create.

To understand the structure of the <code>rshell.ini</code> file, use a standard text editor such as NotePad to open <code>Shell\Nsetup32\rshell.ini</code>, and examine the descriptions contained in the file.

The <code>rshell.ini</code> file consists of two sections:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
The [General] section is where you specify the attributes of the control buttons (Browse CD, Back, and Exit) that appear at the bottom of the Autorun screens.

|
|
</li><br>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
The [Dialog] sections specify the attributes and behavior of each Autorun screen. Each [Dialog] section defines one Autorun screen, and you name the [Dialog] sections sequentially as [Dialog1], [Dialog2], [Dialog3], and so on, one for each Autorun screen.

You can use either of these settings to specify the position of the button's descriptive text. Use <code>col1_text_offset</code> if you want to specify the text's position by defining an offset between the button and the button text. Use <code>col1_text_posx</code> instead if you want to specify the absolute <em>x</em> position of the button's descriptive text.

The supplied <code>rshell.ini</code> file includes a second dialog, Dialog2, that is not visible by default. To enable it, locate the button3 settings that are commented out with semicolons (located within the section in the <code>rshell.ini</code> file called "Buttons 2 - 6 for Dialog 1"). Remove the semicolons in front of all the button3 settings, save your changes, and then launch the Autorun screen by double-clicking the file <code>Shell\nsetup32\Nsetup32.exe</code> file. Click the third button in the first screen (labeled Bonus Applications and Plug-ins) and you'll be able to see the second dialog.

If you don't specify a background image for a new screen, the new screen uses the system background color. To add a background image to a new screen, follow these steps:

<li value="1">
|
|
Using a graphic editing program, create a background bitmap that's 640 x 480 pixels, and save it as a <code>.BMP</code> format file in the <code>shell\bmps\</code> directory.

|

<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Keep your bitmap file sizes as small as possible by reducing the number of colors the images use or by removing (flattening) the layers if you created the images in Adobe Photoshop. If your images are too large, you may not be able to see them in the Autorun screen. If you cannot see a background image when you test the Autorun screen, open the image in a paint program and try reducing the number of colors to reduce the image's file size.

To prevent palette-swapping when switching between Autorun screens, be sure to use a 256-color palette in each background image you create.

You can add a button to an autorun screen that performs any of these functions:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Launch an executable (<code>.exe</code>) program.
|
|
<a name="14758"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt> <a name="14759"> </a>
|
|
For example, if you want to include an installer for another application on the CD, you can add a button that users can click to launch the installer.
|
|
<br /> </dt> </dl>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Go to another screen
|
|
<a name="14761"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt> <a name="14762"> </a>
|
|
For example, if you're creating multiple CD autorun screens, you can add a button that users can click to go to a particular screen. (This is in addition to the standard Browse, Back, and Exit buttons that appear on each autorun screen.)
|
|
<br /> </dt> </dl>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Open a file
|
|
<a name="14764"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt> <a name="14765"> </a>
|
|
For example, you can add a button that opens a <code>readme.txt</code> file so that users can read installation instructions for another application you're providing on the CD.
|
|
<br /> </dt> </dl>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Print a text file
|
|
<a name="14767"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt> <a name="14768"> </a>
|
|
For example, you can add a button that prints the installation instructions.
|
|
<br /> </dt> </dl>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Explore a directory
|
|
<a name="14770"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt> <a name="14771"> </a>
|
|
For example, if you're including a directory of utilities on the CD, you can add a button that opens that directory so that user can view its contents.
|
|
<br /> </dt> </dl>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Open a file in the Mozilla Browser
|
|
<a name="14773"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt> <a name="14774"> </a>
|
|
For example, if you've provided an HTML or GIF format file on the CD that you want users to view in Navigator, you can add a button that opens the file using an already-installed version of Navigator.
|
|
<br /> </dt> </dl>
|
|
|
|
<li>
|
|
Create a shortcut on the user's desktop
|
|
<a name="14776"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt> <a name="14777"> </a>
|
|
For example, if there's a directory on the CD that you want users to have easy access to, you can create a desktop shortcut for that directory.
|
|
<br /> </dt> </dl>
|
|
</ul>

To add a new button to an Autorun dialog screen:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ol type="1">
|
|
|
|
<li value="1">
|
|
Open the <code>rshell.ini</code> file using a text editor.
|
|
<a name="14779"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
|
|
<li value="2">
|
|
Locate the dialog section where you want to add a new button.
|
|
<a name="14781"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
|
|
<li value="3">
|
|
Within the dialog section, locate the section where the buttons for the dialog are defined. Each button group begins with
|
|
<a name="14783"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt> <a name="17071"> </a>
|
|
<code>button1_bitmaps=</code>
|
|
<br /> </dt> </dl>
|
|
|
|
<li value="4">
|
|
Decide how many buttons you want to appear in the dialog.
|
|
<a name="14785"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
|
|
<li value="5">
|
|
If you need more buttons than are defined by default in the <code>rshell.ini</code> file, copy and paste new button groups and increment the button number for each new group you add.
|
|
<a name="14787"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
|
|
<li value="6">
|
|
To remove buttons, delete the button groups that are above the number you need, or simply leave their settings blank.
|
|
<a name="14789"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
|
|
<li value="7">
|
|
Assign an action to each button using the <code>buttonx_cmdline=</code> setting. You can define any one of seven different button actions. See the description of the <code>buttonx_cmdline=</code> setting earlier in this chapter, or by referring to the comments in the rshell.ini file.
|
|
<a name="14791"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
<dl>
|
|
<dt> <a name="14793"> </a>
|
|
For example, to have button1 go to the dialog2 screen, you would enter:
|
|
<br /> </dt><dl><dl><p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
<a name="14795"></a>
|
|
button1_cmdline=window,dialog2
|
|
|
|
</code>
|
|
</p></dl></dl> <dt> <a name="14796"> </a>
|
|
For example, to have button1 launch a program named Setup.exe, you would enter:
|
|
<br /> </dt><dl><dl><p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
<a name="14798"></a>
|
|
button1_cmdline=exe,..\..\Mozilla\Setup.exe
|
|
|
|
</code>
|
|
</p></dl></dl> </dl>
|
|
|
|
<li value="8">
|
|
When you have finished defining buttons and button actions, save your changes to the <code>rshell.ini</code> file.
|
|
<a name="14799"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>

After you finish editing the <code>rshell.ini</code> file, you should view your custom Autorun screens so you can verify your customizations. Follow these steps:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ol type="1">
|
|
|
|
<li value="1">
|
|
Locate this directory:
|
|
<a name="14974"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
<dl><dl><p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
<a name="14975"></a>
|
|
<em>intallation_directory</em>\CCKTool\Configs\<em>my_config</em>\Output\Shell\
|
|
|
|
</code>
|
|
</p></dl></dl>
|
|
<li value="2">
|
|
To test the CD autorun screens, launch the first screen by double-clicking the file <code>\Shell\Nsetup32\Nsetup32.exe</code>.
|
|
<a name="14976"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
|
|
</li><br>
|
|
|
|
<li value="3">
|
|
Verify the appearance of your CD autorun screen and test the action of each button.
|
|
<a name="14977"> </a>
|
|
<img src="pixel.gif" align="top" height="22" alt="" />
