Generating Software ID Tag Files During Repackaging
AdminStudio 2021 R2 SP1 | 22.01 | Repackager
AdminStudio includes ISO/IEC 19770-2 software tagging support. ISO/IEC 19770-2 is an international standard for the creation of software identification tags.
AdminStudio adds software ID tag files—which contain both ISO 19770-2 compliant tag information and AdminStudio’s extended tag information—to Windows Installer packages that it processes in two locations:
• | Packages built by Repackager—By default, whenever Repackager builds a Windows Installer package (even when building one silently), a software ID tag file is created for that package. |
• | Packages imported into the Application Catalog—By default, tag files are created for each package that is imported into the Application Catalog. When Application Catalogs from versions of AdminStudio prior to 11.0 are upgraded, AdminStudio will, upon your approval, create tag files for all packages during upgrade. For more information, see Generating Software ID Tag Files During Package Import in the AdminStudio Help Library. |
In both of these cases, AdminStudio stores the ISO tag file in an external transform file.
In this section, Repackager’s support for creating and editing software ID tag files is described in the following topics:
• | Enabling Software ID Tag Generation During Repackaging |
• | Viewing and Editing Software ID Tag Information in the Repackager Interface |
Note:For detailed information on AdminStudio’s support for software ID tag files, see About Software ID Tag File Generation in the AdminStudio Help Library.
