B1DE Advanced setup and creating UDO object during installation

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am developping addons on B1 2007B and use the B1DE advanced setup package.

Is there a way in the CustomInstallerClass to connect to the B1 Application to create UDO tables ?

Hi Gregory,

Tables and UDOs creation in DI API should not be done during installation. You should do that in your addon after connecting to the DI API.

You need some code in your addon checking whether the UDT, UDF, UDOs,... already exist, if they don't exist then you create them. You can manage that with a user table were you can keep the current version of your installed addon, this way you can know whether you need to create/update something in your Db every time you start your addon or not.
