Review Configurable Components of a UDI Wizard Page

As you create your custom wizard page, some of the configuration settings may be set in code and cannot be changed after you have compiled the page. However, for other configuration settings, you will need to allow those configuration settings to be changed using the UDI Wizard Designer.

Typically, the configuration settings that you want to configure using the UDI Wizard Designer are saved in the UDI Wizard configuration file (the Config.xml file in the example). However, you can also create your own separate configuration file, if necessary. One example of using a separate configuration file is the UDIWizard_Config.xml.app file, which the Application Discovery task and the ApplicationPage wizard page type use.

The following is a list of the typical configuration settings that you can manage using the UDI Wizard Designer:

· Field. Use fields allow users to provide input. Fields appear as Field elements in the UDI Wizard configuration file (UDIWizard_Config.xml), which contains the configuration settings for each field. The corresponding wizard page editor needs to provide a method for editing the field configuration settings for the field using the FieldElementControl.

· Properties. Setters help create properties for entities on the page, such as pages in the Page element, fields in the Field element, or data in the Data or DataItem elements. You configure properties in the Setter elements. Add a separate Setter element for each property you want to define. You edit the properties using the SetterControl and configure other Setter elements using other controls.

· Data. Data is used to store information for use by the wizard page and other components. You can define data for pages or fields using the Data or DataItem elements. The data can be defined in a flat or hierarchical structure through the proper use of the Data or DataItem elements. The Config.xml in the example in the SDK shows how to build flat data structures.

The custom wizard page editor that you create must be able to manage these configuration settings.
