Specifying Build Distribution Options

InstallAnywhere 2017

Edition • Build distribution options vary, depending on which edition of InstallAnywhere you are using:

The Premier edition of InstallAnywhere lets you choose between two build output types: a CD-ROM installer (an uncompressed installer that you can burn onto CDs, DVDs, or other removable media, or that you can copy to a network) or a Web installer (a single executable file, along with an HTML page and embedded Java applet to make downloading the installer easy). The Professional edition provides support for Web installers only.
The Premier edition of InstallAnywhere enables you to create merge modules. The Professional edition does not have support for merge modules.

For each build configuration, you need to specify the types of installers that you want to create: Web installer, CD-ROM/DVD installer, or merge module. The Build Configurations tab in the Build Installers view on the Build page is where you specify the appropriate distribution options.
