A ApplicationLink
Autilitythatlinksdependentapplicationstoabaseapplicationatruntimeandstartsalltheapplications
togetherwhenyoustartthebaseapplication.Youcanusetheutilitytodeployandupdatecomponent
packagesseparatelyratherthancaptureallcomponentsinthesamepackage.
ApplicationSync
Autilitythat
updatesanapplicationbydetectinganewpackagedversiononaserverornetworkshare.
Youcanconfigureupdatesettings,suchasthecheckingofanupdateserveratcertainintervals.ThinApp
detectsthemostrecentapplicationexecutablefileanddownloadsthedifferences.
attributes.ini
Thefilethatappliesconfigurationsettingsatthe
directorylevelofthepackageratherthantheentire
package.The##Attributes.inisettingsoverridetheoverallPackage.inisettings.
B build
ToconvertaThinAppprojectintoapackage.YoucanbuildapackagewiththeSetupCapturewizardor
withthebuild.batutility.
C capture
Topackageanapplicationintoavirtualenvironmentandsetinitialapplicationparameters.ThinApp
providestheSetupCapturewizardorthesnapshot.exeutilitytocreateaportableapplicationpackage
thatisindependentoftheoperatingsystemitrunson.
cleanmachine
Thecomputerorvirtualmachine,installedwithonlythebasic
Windowsoperatingsystem,onwhichyou
capturetheapplication.TheWindowsoperatingsystemversionmustbetheearliestversionofWindows
thatyouexpecttheapplicationtorunon.
E entrypoint
Anexecutablefilethatstartsthecapturedapplication.Anapplicationmighthavemultipleentrypoints.
Forexample,theFirefox.exefilemightserveasanentrypointforaMozillaFirefoxapplication.The
primarydatacontainerfilecanexistwithinanentrypointorasa.datfile.
I inventoryname
AnamethatThinAppusesforinternaltrackingoftheapplication.Theinventorynamesetsthedefault
projectdirectorynameandappearsintheAddorRemoveProgramsdialogboxforWindows.
isolationmode
Apackagesettingthatdeterminesthereadandwriteaccesstothephysicalenvironment.ThinApphas
WriteCopy,Merged,andFullisolationmodes.
