Build: 5/19/99 SeaMonkey build 1. Use jar at http://jimbob/jars/a_winreg_createkey.jar 2. Using form, var winreg = Install.GetWinRegistry(); winreg.createKey("Software\\WinReg Test Key\\subkey1\\subkey2", ""); 3. Trigger jar RESULT: Checking the Windows Registry reveals that no key was created. The Install.log shows: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Acceptance: a_winreg_createkey --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Starting Installation at 05/19/1999 16:35:51 Create Registry Key \#0\ Finished Installation 05/19/1999 16:35:51 EXPECTED RESULT: The key, "Software\\WinReg Test Key\\subkey1\\subkey2", is created using the root, HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT. If setRootKey is used, then this key appears to be created as expected. Therefore, it seems that this problem only applies when a default root is expected. I'm not sure how to interpret the Install.log file as shown above. The perception I have is that the triggered jar was successful. Let me know what you think. Thanks.
