InstallShield 2016
Project • This information applies to the following project types:
• | Basic MSI |
• | InstallScript MSI |
For information on adding FlexNet Connect support to an InstallScript project, consult the Knowledge Base.
Caution • Enabling automatic update notifications in your project adds about 600 KB of files to your installation. These files must be distributed with your application in order for FlexNet Connect to work. If you cannot afford to include these files in your installation because of bandwidth limitations or other reasons, you can select No to disable automatic update notifications. However, FlexNet Connect cannot be used to deploy an update unless automatic notification is enabled in the original installation when you distribute it to your end users. Therefore, if you select No, you will not be able to later take advantage of the automatic update notification features.
To enable automatic update notification for your project:
1. | In the View List under Installation Information, click Update Notifications. |
2. | For the Enable FlexNet Connect setting, select one of the Yes options. |
3. | To register your product with FlexNet Connect, select the Is Product/Version Registered setting and follow the directions in the help pane. |
