近日，跨平台安装打包工具InstallAnywhere 2012发布了SP1补丁包。
SP1更新主要包括以下三个内容：
New Platform Support
InstallAnywhere 2012 SP1 supports the latest and most updated platforms including Mac OS X 10.8(Mountain Lion), SUSE Linux 12.2, Ubuntu 12.10, IBM i 7.1, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.3, and Fedora 17.
Ability to Code Sign Mac OS X Installers for Mountain Lion Gatekeeper Support
InstallAnywhere now has support for signing Mac OS X installers with a Developer ID installer certificate at build time. Signing an installer with this type of certificate enables you to distribute it outside the Mac App Store. When an end user downloads and runs your installer, Gatekeeper allows the installer to run.
If an end user tries to launch an unsigned, downloaded installer on a Mac OS X Mountain Lion system on which Gatekeeper is turned on, the system displays an alert and blocks the installer from running.
To configure code signing for your Mac OS X installers, use the new Code Signing area on the Mac OS X tab of the Project > Platforms subtask. This area lets you specify whether you want to code sign the installer that InstallAnywhere generates at build time. It also lets you specify the certificate file and password.
Ability to Deploy VMware Virtual Appliances to a Designated Server
InstallAnywhere now lets you specify the deployment server that you want to use for your VMware virtual appliances. If you have a specific server designated as your deployment server and you have your appliance configured to deploy automatically, InstallAnywhere deploys the virtual appliance to the specified machine at build time.
To specify a designated deployment server, open the Build Appliances tab, click the Application Configuration tab, and then configure the settings in the new Deployment Machine Credentials area.
