San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) December 13, 2010
BitRock Inc, the leading provider of cross platform deployment tools and services for software companies and enterprise IT departments, today announced the release of InstallBuilder 7. The new release of InstallBuilder is focused on ease of use and speed of development and includes enhanced functionality for packaging Java-based applications, expanded documentation, and improved compression that reduces the size of generated installers, among other improvements.
InstallBuilder is a multiplatform tool for developing software installers, native packages and crossplatform DVDs. It enables developers to quickly package their software for distribution to customers or end users within their organization. The 7.0 release makes this process faster and easier than ever. New Java-specific functionality allows developers to bundle Java Runtime Environments and create native Java launchers. A new built-in XML editor enables developers to switch seamlessly between using the GUI development environment and editing installer project files by hand. Updated, more comprehensive documentation makes InstallBuilder easier to learn and use and improved compression reduces the size of generated installers by removing duplicated files within installer package.
“Our goal with InstallBuilder is to make the process of building crossplatform software installers as painless as possible,” said Daniel Lopez Ridruejo, BitRock’s founder and Chief Technology Officer. “We’re excited to release InstallBuilder 7.0, which includes a number of new features, such as a new function for searching actions and rules, which will further simplify and speed the installer building process for developers.”
