Assembly Build Configuration

InstallShield 11 Universal

Available in InstallShield Universal Premier Only

An Assembly Build Configuration is added to your project in the Releases view. It builds the project into an assembly, which must be installed by a project that was built as a product or a Universal Dynamic Suite because an assembly does not contain install or uninstall engines. An assembly can, however, be referenced by multiple Universal Installer and Universal Dynamic Suite projects.

A built assembly is automatically named assembly.dat, and is saved with the following directory structure:

<UUID>/<Version>/assembly.dat

Tip

To also build this project as a product, add a Product Build Configuration and configure its Distributions for each targeted platform. Then build the project.
