Installation process

To align with MS best practice and to protect our IP the following applies to the release process.

Depending on the installation history follow one of these guides to install the new release.

Installation without existing installed product

  1. Apply the deployable package to your environment.
  2. If you have requested any model for extension or debugging purposes. Install the model source code. a. Note, once the model source code is compiled it will overwrite the binaries installed when the deployable package was applied.

Installation with existing installed product

If you’re installing the new release in an installation that already has a previous version of the product installed and you’re not using it for debugging or extension. We recommend that you;

  1. Remove the release product model source code from your source control, if source control is used.
  2. Apply the deployable package, installing the latest version of the product models as binaries.
  3. Check in the binaries for the models to source control, if source control is used.

If you’re using our model source code for extension or debugging and would like to continue using it, please do the following to apply the new release with the source code.

  1. Remove product license model from your source control that is applicable to the release. You’ll find the license model in the deployable package. It will either be called DXCLicense or Sable37License.
  2. Apply the deployable package to your environment to install the latest binaries. Check in the binaries for the license model that was removed in step 1 to source control. Note, that this step will also install the binaries for all the models in the new release.
  3. Install the product release model source code and check into source control.

If you don’t follow these instructions and continue building your installation deployable package using the license model source code, the installation will continue using the same license model as before applying the release.
