v7.2 [May 22, 2011]
InstallBuilder 7 makes it easier than ever to build crossplatform installers for your software. The 7.0 release focuses on improving ease of use of InstallBuilder and includes expanded documentation, the ability to view and edit XML snippets directly via the GUI development environment and features that simplify the process of packaging Java-based applications. They have nearly doubled the size of the InstallBuilder User Guide to provide a complete resource for all of the properties, actions, rules, variables and other features of InstallBuilder. Built in variable and action browsers make locating the right functionality easier than ever.
A significant portion of InstallBuilder customers ship Java applications, so new features were added to simplify the process. InstallBuilder 7 now automates the process of bundling a JRE and creating native launchers for Java applications. InstallBuilder also includes built-in functionality for auto-detecting a Java runtime.
The 7.0 release adds a search function that allows you to search for rules and actions within the InstallBuilder GUI development environment, saving you from having to check the documentation. It also adds the ability to view and edit project file XML snippets directly from the GUI.
