[TYPO3-dev] Executing code when extension is installed

[Michael Knoll]

I found a solution now: User code that should be executed after 
installation can be added to ext_conf_template.txt via

   # cat=basic; 
type=user[EXT:rbac/Classes/Install/PostInstallHook.php:Tx_Rbac_Install_PostInstallHook->setupRbac]; 
label=Importing TypoScript settings into Database
updateMessage=0


That works fine for me!
