When developping applications for mobile devices that run Windows CE/Mobile, it is usual to build a .CAB file to deploy your application. Sometimes, the features proposed by the Microsoft .CAB file format are not enough but you can embed a custom dll to perform what is needed on the device by the automatic install process of the .CAB. Here and here are examples of such a custom dll (source code for Visual C++).

Whith such a dll, you can program some actions that may occur whenever you want at prefdefined steps of the install: pre-install, post-install, and so on. For more details about this featur, please check the following URL : http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa924308.aspx .
