PSInstaller Class
Definition
PSInstaller is a class for facilitating installation of monad engine and monad PSSnapin's.
This class implements installer api from CLR. At install
time, installation utilities (like InstallUtil.exe) will
call api implementation functions in this class automatically.
This includes functions like Install, Uninstall, Rollback
and Commit.
This class is an abstract class for handling installation needs
that are common for all monad components, which include,
1. accessing system registry
2. support of additional command line parameters.
3. writing registry files
4. automatically extract informaton like vender, version, etc.
Different monad component will derive from this class. Two common
components that need install include,
1. PSSnapin. Installation of PSSnapin will require information
about PSSnapin assembly, version, vendor, etc to be
written to registry.
2. Engine. Installation of monad engine will require information
about engine assembly, version, CLR information to be
written to registry.
