Client Development Tutorial

Now that you have built your Client you are ready to deploy it.

You may wish to use InstallShield, ClickOnce Deployment, or a comparable product when packaging your application for deployment. Ultimately, you will need the following:

Interop.NetFwTypeLib.dll
Opc.Ua.Client.dll
Opc.Ua.ClientControls.dll
Opc.Ua.Configuration.dll
Opc.Ua.Core.dll

Opc.Ua.QuickstartsLibrary.dll
Opc.Ua.Server.dll
Opc.Ua.ServerControls.dll
QuickStarts.MyClient.Config.xml
Quickstarts.MyClient.exe

Installation of Application

Applications built with the UA .NET API inherit an infrastructure to assist with the installation of the product by simply passing command-line arguments:

/install: installs the software by creating an application certificate and registering itself with a certificate store and will create a certificate store if one does not exist.
/silent: prevents the application user interface from loading.

Removing an Application

The following parameters are the inverse of those previously mentioned:

/uninstall: removes the application certificate and configuration - but does not remove the files from the hard-drive because that is the responsibility of your installer software.
