Hi Troy,

Just some feedback: I have now implemented the "cancel module installation" feature in Ezra Project and it works nicely based on the InstallMgr::terminate() method!

Best regards,
Tobias

Hi Tobias,

Yes, you can let your users cancel an install by calling the

InstallMgr::terminate() method.  I have just now commented this method

better so its purpose is more clear.  My apologies, Jaak, for not having

this commented better for you.
