When you install Reflection X Advantage on Windows, some features are installed using associated installers that run automatically as needed.
NOTE:If you install from a command line using setup.exe, prerequisite packages are installed automatically. If you install using msiexec.exe, prerequisite packages are not installed automatically. For details, see Install from the Command Line.
All features require Java, and the feature is selected by default. When this feature is selected, the associated installer installs a JRE that is correctly configured to fully support all Reflection X Advantage features. Micro Focus will supply updated Java installation packages as needed to provide customers with Java security updates. These packages can be downloaded and applied independently of any updates you apply to the main installer package. The JRE installed with Reflection X Advantage is uninstalled automatically when you uninstall Reflection X Advantage.
It is also possible to configure Reflection X Advantage to use a different JRE. For details about how to configure a non-default JRE, see Changing the JRE.
NOTE:The Micro Focus Java installer adds a separate entry in the Windows Control Panel. Uninstalling the Reflection program automatically uninstalls the Micro Focus Java entry if it is no longer being used by any application. If you uninstall using an msiexec command line, you need to uninstall the Java program as a separate step.
All features require Microsoft .NET 4.5.1 to be installed on your system. If it is not on your system and you install Reflection X Desktop or Reflection Pro Desktop using the defaults (or include any Reflection Workspace features), Microsoft .NET Framework Setup program is installed and started after the Reflection X Advantage installation completes. You must accept the Microsoft license agreement to complete this installation.
Microsoft .NET is a shared component and is not uninstalled when you uninstall Reflection. To uninstall Microsoft .NET, use the Windows Programs and Features Control Panel and uninstall each of the Microsoft .NET Framework 4 items.
If you are an administrator, you can use Installation Customization Tool to configure a silent install that includes the Microsoft .NET installation without displaying the Microsoft .NET Setup user interface. If you create a transform that sets the user interface level to , the Microsoft .NET Setup user interface is not displayed. If the user interface level is either or , the Microsoft .NET setup user interface is displayed.
The feature is available with the emulators. Installations that include this feature install Microsoft VBA 7.1. Visual Basic for Applications is a shared component and is not uninstalled when you uninstall Reflection X Advantage.
