Please provide answers to the following installshield qns:
a) Briefly explain the design/structure/architecture of a Installer package?
b) Explain how its decided (on what basis) whether to provide a single installer (which can manage both x86 and x64 systems) or to provide separate installer for each x86 & x64 installers.NOTE: U cant get any info from customer about his specific requirements or system requirements. You have to decide yourself.
c) Define Context in Custom actions
