- Solves the need to optionally install and uninstall parts of an application.
- Provides the ability to package up multiple artefacts into a single executable, including 3rd party installations.
Enables an EPC or even a LANSA major release to be deployed as a patch. This speeds up the deployment to very large installations where a Major Upgrade is effectively not a suitable mechanism to deploy any application changes as it just takes too long.
Note Note: There are technical restrictions, described later, which break patching and force a Version to be used. - Allows the release cycles of customised customized parts of an application and add-ons to an application to be independent of the core or base product. As LANSA application objects are backward compatible there is no need to enforce a re-release of those objects when the core runtime changes.
- Supports optional features or Feature Sets. That is, installing multiple LANSA MSI into the one LANSA directory structure.
