New Features in InstallAnywhere 2011

• Expanded Platform Support - InstallAnywhere 2011 supports the latest and most updated platforms including Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard), SUSE Linux 11.3, Ubuntu 9.10, Solaris 11, HP-UX 11i, AIX 7.1, IBM i5/OS, Z/OS, RHEL 6 and Fedora 14.

• Enhanced Merge Modules Features – InstallAnywhere 2011 provides a single uninstaller that will work with your main project as well as any other merge modules. This new capability reduces potential uninstall errors and saves time for the set up author. A unified progress bar has been developed to show installation progress for all included components.

• Extended External Resource Bundle Support – External Resource Bundle support enables the localisation of installer strings. Merge modules can now leverage the external resource bundles from the parent as well.

• Enhanced Installation Logging – Merge modules now have installation logs in addition to the parent log files. Developers also have the ability to consolidate the parent and merge module log files. All logging related settings have been consolidated into a single log settings task.

• Enhanced Support for Third-Party Compression Algorithms – InstallAnywhere 2011 allows set up authors to expand 7-Zip (LZMA) and TAR compressed archives on their target system offering the ability to expand these archives in a fast and reliable manner.

• Complex Rule Expressions with Multiple Operators – InstallAnywhere 2011 provides the ability to write complex rule expressions (and/or/not) with the application logic. These complex rule expressions help set up authors to better mirror their complex business logic.
