The release Directory
The release directory in the Deploy Directory is where you control the Arbortext Editor features that are included in a compact installation. This directory has the same name as the current release. The directory contains the manifest.txt configuration file and the CAB files for the Arbortext Editor features. For more information on the contents of this directory, see Deployment Kit Contents.
To configure the features included in a compact installation, edit the manifest.txt file and uncomment the CAB files for the features you want to include in the installation. Following is the default manifest.txt file:
# -----------------------------------------------------------------------

# the Arbortext Editor installers associated with this Deploy Directory.

as follows:

The manifest.txt file is divided into the following feature areas:
Java support

PTC Server connection support
Technical Information Application support
Java Support
The following part of the manifest.txt file includes the required Arbortext Editor Java support in a compact installation:
# Required. Installs Java support.
#
# This file is downloaded and installed only if a compatible Java
# installation is not already available on the target system.
java.cab
You must include the java.cab file in your compact installation. Do not comment this line in the manifest.txt file. However, the Java support will not necessarily be included in a compact installation. Before adding Java support to a compact installation, the installation program first checks the system where Arbortext Editor is being installed to see if a compatible Java environment is already installed on that system. If such an environment is already present on the system, the installation program will not include the Java CAB file in the installation.

# Required. Installs Help Center.

helpcenter_ja.cab

You must include the Help Center in all languages in your compact installation. Do not comment the lines for helpcenter CAB files in the manifest.txt file.
