Selecting The Executable File To Wrap; About Output Folders - Novell ADMINSTUDIO 9.5 User Manual

Note • The evaluation license file (eval.lic) is for evaluation purposes only; you are not permitted to use it in a
production environment. Also, the evaluation license file can only be used for a limited amount of time before
expiring.
Production License Files
You purchase production license files from AdminStudio Support. To install a production license file, you first
purchase license file credentials from AdminStudio Support, and then create the license file by entering the license
file credentials on the Certificate tab of the FLEXwrap Server Configuration Tool. See
FLEXwrap License

Selecting the Executable File to Wrap

On the Select Files page of the FLEXwrap Assistant, you are prompted to select a Windows Installer (
package, and then to select the executable (
license inject.
A Windows Installer package often has multiple executable files associated with it, so it may be unclear as to which
of those files you should license inject. By default, the Only show executable files with associated
components with shortcuts option is selected, which filters the list to show only those executables which can
be launched separately using a Shortcut.
For example, if you were license-injecting a Windows Installer package that installs a suite of applications such as:
wordprocessing.exe, spreadsheet.exe, presentation.exe
you would need to license-inject all three of those executable files in order to enforce license management.
But if only one of a Windows Installer package's executable files launches separately (and all the others are called
by the main executable to run behind the scenes to perform specific functions), you would only have to license-
inject the main, launchable executable file.
You also have the option of clearing the selection of any executable. For example, if an executable is a command
line utility that you do not want to enforce licensing on, you can just clear the check box for that executable.

About Output Folders

The Output folder on the
Options Dialog
When the selected package is wrapped, FLEXwrap Assistant creates a subfolder in the default output folder and
gives it the same name as the Windows Installer file. Then FLEXwrap Assistant copies the Windows Installer file
and all of its associated files and subfolders to this new subfolder before starting the wrapping process.
For example, if you were license enabling a Windows Installer package named
