发明名称 ENABLING DYNAMIC SOFTWARE INSTALLER REQUIREMENT DEPENDENCY CHECKS
摘要 An installer for installing a software program on a computing device can be executed. The installer can perform a set of dependency checks before installing the software program. The set of dependency checks can include the validation of a pre-requisites associated with the proper execution of the software program. The pre-requisites can be a portion of a dependency content. The content can be a checklist. Before the software program is installed on the device and responsive to executing the installer, the installer can update dependency content using a custom dependency checklist. The updating of the dependency content can be performed without updating code of the software program to be installed on the device. The execution of the installer can continue using the updated dependency content for performing the set of dependency checks responsive to automatically updating the dependency content.

主权项 1. A method for a dynamic installer comprising: one or more processors executing an installer for installing a software program on a computing device, wherein said one or more processors executing the installer perform a set of dependency checks before installing the software program, wherein the set of dependency checks comprises of the validation of a pre-requisites associated with the proper execution of the software program, wherein the pre-requisites is at least a portion of a dependency content, wherein the content is a checklist; before or while the software program is installed on the device and responsive to executing the installer, the installer, executed by the one or more processors, automatically updating dependency content using a dependency checklist that has one or more default dependency checks modified from a baseline installation to a customized installation specific for installing the software program on the computing device, wherein the updating of the dependency content is performed without updating code of the software program to be installed on the device; and responsive to the one or more processors automatically updating the dependency content, the one or more processors continuing to execution of the installer using the updated dependency content for performing the set of dependency checks.
