InstallShield2009 Unicode Support

Our installer is written using InstallShield2009, and as part of the certification requirements, we have to support Unicode everywhere.

The application itself is .NET so it supports Unicode natively, however when testing our installation with Chinese character set we can see problems caused by InstallShield dialog boxes.

After doing a quick google, I found one related post where someone thought there was no Unicode support in IS2008.

I also emailed Acresso directly, but being a caring developer I thought I'd post the question here for future reference in case anyone else has a problem.

If anyone has encountered this issue in the past, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank.

It turns out that IS2009 does NOT support Unicode, since it cannot handle paths containing (among others) Japanese characters.
