Install Multiple instances of same application

[zonique]

Hi again

How do I allow the user to install more than one instance of the same application?

According to the following thread it is'nt possible...
http://www.installaware.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=50

But as far as I understand from this article from Microsoft, it should be possible do it with Windows Installer, using instance transforms...

Is it somehow posible to do that with InstallAware?

Not yet. But we'll be adding a native scripting command that automatically derives a new instance - no need to mess with instance transforms. This will be available in the next update.

Cool, thats just what we need I guess

Do you have any idea when this update will be released?
It's essential for our users to be able to install more than one instance...

Very soon
Unfortunately, I do not have an official ETA at this time.
