Predefined Validation Modules
Package Validation contains predefined validation modules that perform the tests
described below.
Windows 2000 Application Specification Logo
Runs logo.cub, which is provided by Microsoft as part of its Windows 2000 logo
verification program. The tests in logo.cub are a subset of the tests in darice.cub,
therefore, running both tests at the same time might result in duplicate errors.
Windows XP Application Specification Logo
Runs XPlogo.cub, which is provided by Microsoft as part of its Windows XP logo
verification program. The tests in XPlogo.cub are a subset of the tests in darice.cub,
therefore, running both tests at the same time might result in duplicate errors.
Windows Installer SDK Internal Consistency
Runs darice.cub, which is provided by Microsoft. It performs more than 50 checks to
ensure that the installation databases are internally consistent.
Merge Module Consistency Checks
Runs mergemod.cub, which is provided by Microsoft to test the internal consistency
of merge modules. This is the only predefined validation module that appears on the
Welcome page when you validate a merge module.
Windows Vista/Windows 7 Compatibility Checks
Runs WiseVistaIce.cub, which checks for adherence to Microsoft's package
validation requirements for the Vista and later operating systems.
Wise Package Studio Checks
The following checks are built in to Package Validation; they do not run .CUB files.
