It assumes that you are familiar with the specific packaging software you are going to use, such as InstallShield or WiX. For information about how to create the installer, refer to the documentation of your packaging software.
The COBOL Server Deployment Toolkit gives you more flexibility when deciding how to deploy your COBOL-based applications that depend on COBOL Server. It contains a number of merge modules and install package files which enable you to integrate COBOL Server in a Windows installer package that you can then use to distribute your applications to your end users.
The files making up the Deployment Toolkit are contained in the file cs_40_deployment_sdk.zip which you can download from the Electronic Product Delivery email which you are sent when you purchased a license for COBOL Server.
The Deployment Tookit includes a number of merge modules (.msm files) and installer package (.msi) files for either 32-bit or 64-bit systems. You can include the .msm files in your application's installer if it is an .msi installer. You can use the .msi files in your application's installer if it is a wrapper or a bundle .msi-style installer.
License Manager is only provided as installer packages (.msi) and must be supplied separately where you are using the COBOL Server merge modules.
