Repository Manager

Centralize and share project resources using the repository. Multiple projects, i.e. team members, can share the same resources by setting a common location for the repository, for example a network shared drive.

Resources exported to the repository can be used in new projects very easy. For dialogs and prerequisites use the option "Add from Repository". Dictionaries are automatically loaded in the project if their correspondent language is selected. Project templates and repackager profiles are also automatically loaded from the repository and populated in our GUI, so you can choose to use the one you need when creating a new project or respectively repackaging an application.

Content

Change the repository location on your development machine. This value can also point to a network path.

The available operations are:

• Change repository path - changes the location without moving the resources inside.
• Move repository - changes the location and moves the containing resources replacing the identical ones.

We will gladly offer you a free license if you help us with missing translations. To contact us regarding this, just use the “Send to Advanced Installer team” item from the Dictionaries tab's context menu.
