Information about the package, unshield, which is shipped with common Linux distributions. The unshield package is designed for, Install InstallShield applications on a Pocket PC.


Package Name:

unshield

Summary:

Install InstallShield applications on a Pocket PC

Description:

To install a Pocket PC application remotely, an installable Microsoft Cabinet File is copied to the /Windows/AppMgr/Install directory on the PDA and then the wceload.exe is executed to perform the actual install. That is a very simple procedure. Unfortunately, many applications for Pocket PC are distributed as InstallShield installers for Microsoft Windows, and not as individual Microsoft Cabinet Files. That is very impractical for users of other operating systems, such as Linux or FreeBSD.
