\"\"There is now an update of SamLogic Visual Installer 2015<\/a> available. The version number is 10.5.16<\/em>, and some of the news and improvements in this version are:<\/p>\n

\u2022 The code signing<\/strong> function in Visual Installer now supports SHA-2<\/strong> and dual code signing<\/strong> (SHA-1 + SHA-2). Windows 7 and later requires SHA-2 for setup packages that are code signed from January 1, 2016 and later. Read more<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u2022 Improved support for Microsoft .NET Framework<\/strong>. Now are also sub versions of .NET Framework supported (for example version 4.5.1, 4.5.2 etc.). And you can let Visual Installer download and install a specific version of .NET Framework, if it is missing in the end-user’s computer. We have added a mini wizard that handles this.

\u2022 Easier to register a type library for a .NET assembly. Read more<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u2022 A new setup dialog box has been added to Visual Installer’s setup wizard: User Options<\/strong>. It’s a general option dialog box where the user can select and unselect options that you have created and added to the installation project. These options co-operates with condition statements in Visual Installer\u2019s scripting language and Visual Installer\u2019s Registry<\/strong> tab. Read more<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u2022 It is now possible to import a VB.NET project that compiles a DLL rather than an EXE file.<\/p>\n

\u2022 Visual Installer’s scripting language now supports ELSE<\/strong>. Read more<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u2022 Visual Installer now supports environment variables. An environment variable can be expanded<\/a> during an installation (for example in the Registry<\/strong> tab), and with a new script command, SETENV<\/strong>, that we have added to the script language you can set an environment variable to a specified value.<\/p>\n

\u2022 The local (right-click) menu in the File list<\/strong> tab has been extended with a new menu item: Add more files from same source folder<\/strong>. This menu command is very useful if you want to add more files to the file list from a previously used folder in the file list. Read more<\/a>.<\/p>\n
