Selecting Releases to Build
AdminStudio 2023 | 25.0 | Citrix Assistant
You select the releases that you want to build a Citrix profile for on the Releases tree of the Build Settings page.
Important:You cannot create or edit a release in the Citrix Assistant. If no releases exist, you can simply click the Build toolbar button to create a new release or open the Releases view of the InstallShield Installation Designer. You must create at least one release before you will be able to build a Citrix profile. For more information, see Creating and Building Releases.
If you are editing a Windows Installer package (Direct Edit Mode) or transform file (Direct MST Mode), the Releases tree on the Build Settings page is not displayed.
To select releases to build:
| 1. | Open the Build Settings page. |
| 2. | Select the releases in the Releases tree that you want to build a Citrix profile for. |
Important:When you select a release on the Build Settings page, you are specifying that whenever you build that particular release, you want to also build a Citrix profile for that release. However, the releases that are selected on the Build Settings page have no bearing upon which release is built when you click the Build button on the toolbar. When you initiate a build by clicking the Build button, a build is initiated for the active release—the release that was most recently selected on the Installation Designer Releases view. The output of that build would depend upon what releases were selected on the Build Settings page:
| • | Active release selected—A Windows Installer package and a Citrix profile would be built. |
| • | Active release not selected—Only a Windows Installer package would be built. |
Note:To build more than one release at a time, perform a batch build. See Performing Batch Builds.
