It is expected that to build a new release, the maintainer now only needs to change the version number in one place on line 9 in the setup.iss file.

Note: The new version of the installer expects the COPYING file is in the build directory (see line 129 in the setup.iss). The changes to the build configuration files required for this are not included in this pull request.

Summary of significant changes in English:

  • New installer for Windows (if INSTEAD 3.5.1 or lower is installed on your system, it is recommended that you first uninstall it manually and then install INSTEAD using the new installer):
    • Installation on a system with an already installed application is correctly processed as an update (only starting from this version).
    • License acceptance dialog during installation.
    • Installation-configurable feature to associate application with INSTEAD data files (.idf).
    • Installation configurable feature to add the INSTEAD directory to the Path environment variable.
    • Installation configurable feature to create INSTEAD shortcut in Quick Launch toolbar.
    • More detailed information about the application in the properties of the executable file and in the Add/Remove Programs system applet.
    • Fix: All standard themes are now available in the installation version.

Summary of significant changes in Russian:

  • Новый установщик для Windows (если в системе установлен INSTEAD 3.5.1 и ниже, то рекомендуется сначала деинсталлировать его вручную, а потом устанавливать INSTEAD при помощи нового установщика):
    • Установка в систему с уже установленным приложением корректно обрабатывается как обновление (только начиная с этой версии).
    • Диалог принятия лицензии при установке.
    • Настраиваемая при установке функция ассоциации приложения с файлами данных INSTEAD (.idf).
    • Настраиваемая при установке функция добавления директории INSTEAD в переменную среды Path.
    • Настраиваемая при установке функция создания ярлыка INSTEAD на Панели быстрого запуска.
    • Более подробная информация о приложении в свойствах исполняемого файла и в системном апплете "Установка и удаление программ".
    • Исправление: Теперь все стандартные темы доступны в установочной версии.
