InstallBuilder 6.0.3

InstallBuilder 6.0.3 provides a diversified and effective way to turn application packaging and deployment into a fast, easy and cost-effective process for developers. The development tool allows you to quickly create easy to use, multiplatform installers that have a native look and feel across Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, HP-UX, AIX, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, Solaris, and Windows from a single build environment. GUI, text, and unattended modes allow installers to be run in servers, workstations, and desktops.

InstallBuilder offers several advanced features, including RPM integration and quickbuild functionality. It also includes convenient built-in actions for commonly required installation functions, such as: autodetecting a Java(tm) Runtime, changing file permissions and ownership, substituting text in a file, adding environment variables, adding directories to the path, creating symbolic links, changing the Windows registry, and launching external scripts.

An easy to use GUI allows new users to quickly learn to use InstallBuilder. For advanced users, a friendly XML project format supports source control integration, collaborative development and customizing projects both by hand and using external scripts. A command line interface allows you to automate and integrate the building process.

Because BitRock installers are single file, self-contained, native executables, they do not require bundling a Java runtime or a self-extraction step. This reduces installer size and overhead while increasing the speed of installations.
