Acad Install is an application to help with the installation of AutoCAD
applications. It is designed for use with
Inno Setup or InstallShield Express or any other installer which can
run an executable and pass it the path the user installs to.
Acad Install features -
- All initialization happens from your setup executable before AutoCAD is
launched.
- Setup your AutoLISP/Visual Lisp, ObjectARX/ADSARX, and VBA/VB applications.
- Set up any or all of the following -
- Menus
- Toolbars
- Demand loading for ObjectARX applications.
- Add setup files to AutoCAD's Startup Suite with full path.
- Add or modify AutoCAD profile settings.
- Add install path to AutoCAD search paths with redundancy check so duplicates
are not created.
- All registry keys created (ie. that didn't exist prior to installation) can be
deleted upon uninstall.
- Only two files need to be added to the installation, a copy of AcadInst.ini
with your app's settings and AcadInst.exe
- Easy to use INI file based install parameters
- User specifies what AutoCAD profiles to which they wish to install your
application. Alternately, a 'silent' install is available to registered users.
- A version with your product's name in the caption bar (instead of CADwerx).
