NEWS AND RUMORS

InstallShield DevStudio 9 available

The new InstallShield DevStudio 9 is a Windows installation-authoring solution that enables software developers to create Windows Installer (MSI), InstallScript, and smart device installations – all while using a single, easy-to-use development environment.

DevStudio 9 is a suite that gives you the capabilities of both InstallShield Developer and InstallShield Professional, plus integration with Visual Studio .NET – together in one seamlessly integrated product.

New features include:

InstallShield guarantees that your InstallShield Developer, InstallShield Professional 6 or 7, InstallShield Express, or InstallShield Windows Installer project will migrate to InstallShield DevStudio 9. And if it doesn't, they'll fix it at no cost.

As an introdutory offer, a $200/€200 mail-in rebate is available until November 30, 2003.

Localized Update Service

New version 2.2 of InstallShield 's Update Service brings support for localized messages in 14 languages. The default strings are pre-translated, and you can also specify the language for the update notices you post. End users will then see the update in the language that was registered during the first time install of your software.

InstallShield Update Service enables you to automatically deliver software updates to your customers, similar to Windows Update.

InstallShield AdminStudio Course in Sweden

InstallShield will be holding the public training class "Repackaging and Migration using InstallShield AdminStudio" in Linköping, Sweden. The course will take place from October 21 through October 24, 2003. For more information and to register see
http://www.installsite.biz/en/products/isas_training_en.htm

On-Demand online training about Patches

InstallShield's training department introduced a new course format: On-demand, self-paced, online seminar. You can access this seminar, which was recorded previously, from the convenience of your desk at a time that suits you. This has several benefits:

Participants can download a seminar manual as PDF file.

The first seminar in this format is "Designing and Deploying MSI Updates and Patches". After repeating some important basic facts about Windows Installer (like component key paths) it describes update types, patch generation and validation, explains troubleshooting and logging methods, and discusses automatic update distribution. Tools used in the seminar are the Microsoft Windows Installer SDK, InstallShield Developer and InstallShield Express.

The seminar is held by Robert Dickau, Bob Baker, and Chris Woerner.

Windows Installer Chats in October and November

In this October's MSI chat, the Windows Installer team at Microsoft will be bringing in some guest experts to discuss the Windows Installer user interface functionality. If you've ever wanted to ask questions about how MSI works with Dialogs, Controls, Fonts, Logging, MSI message records, or External UI then this chat is a great opportunity.

Date: Tuesday, October 14, 2003
Time: 18:00 GMT = 11:00 AM Pacific = 2:00 PM Eastern = 19:00 UK time = 20:00 CET (DST)

In the November Windows Installer chat, experts from the MSI team at Microsoft will sit down at their keyboards and answer any questions you ask about MSI - no specific focus area is scheduled for this month. Fire up your browser and join this chat to learn about merge modules, rollback, custom actions, advertisement, external UI, patches and upgrades, validation, assemblies and more.

Date: Tuesday, October 14, 2003
Time: 19:00 GMT = 11:00 AM Pacific = 2:00 PM Eastern = 20:00 CET

These chats will focus on released versions of the Windows Installer and will not cover any Beta or pre-release information.
