Location: Annapolis, Maryland                Windows is one of our targeted 
platforms and we just discovered that Advanced Installer now imports Real 
Studio projects.  This saves time and minimizes the chances of missing any 
changes from the previous project version.  For instance, after updating our 
apps to take advantage of the new Crypto module in Real Studio 2012 Release 2, 
Advanced Installer automatically included the new Crypto.dll in the 
installation packages.  Very nice!

For those of you that haven't tried Advanced Installer, they do have a free 
version.  The free version continues to meet all of our needs.  Hopefully it 
will meet yours too.

Happy coding!

Also, take a look at Inno Setup, it is free and open source and has crypto 
module.

Thanks for your suggestion.  Inno Setup is certainly another good installer for 
Windows but it lacks the ability to import Real Studio projects.  Advanced 
Installer can also build an encrypted installer but it's the Crypto module in 
Real Studio 2012 Release 2 that I was referring to.  You can read about it at:

Location: San Francisco, CA, USA                What exactly do you mean by 
"importing Real Studio projects"? It can import the RBP file?

The short answer is yes.  The longer answer is that Advanced Installer parses 
key information from a Real Studio project and uses it to determine the app 
name, app version, library files, etc. so that we don't have to worry about 
those aspects of the installer configuration.  There's still manual work to do 
on our part but not quite as much as there used to be which saves time and 
reduces errors on our part.  We're just users of their product and are excited 
about this new feature that might benefit other Real Studio developers.  It's 
free so give it a try if you're interested.  If not, there are other choices 
for Windows like Inno Setup that was recommended by SpaceBuddy.
