ASA Programming Guide
Deploying Databases and Applications
When you have completed a database application, you must deploy the application to your end users. Depending on the way in which your application uses Adaptive Server Anywhere (as an embedded database, in a client/server fashion, and so on) you may have to deploy components of the Adaptive Server Anywhere software along with your application. You may also have to deploy configuration information, such as data source names, that enable your application to communicate with Adaptive Server Anywhere.
Check your license agreementRedistribution of files is subject to your license agreement with Sybase. No statements in this document override anything in your license agreement. Please check your license agreement before considering deployment. |
The following deployment steps are examined in this chapter:
Determining required files based on the choice of application platform and architecture.
Configuring client applications.
Much of the chapter deals with individual files and where they need to be placed. However, the recommended way of deploying Adaptive Server Anywhere components is to use the Installshield objects or to use a silent installation. For information, see Using InstallShield objects and templates for deployment, and Using a silent installation for deployment.
