Using Merge Modules

The OPC Foundation merge modules simplify the deployment of applications built with the UA .NET API, and also for deploying the UA Discovery Server. Simply including a merge-module within your installer is typically all that is required to redistribute OPC Foundation deliverables.

Visual Studio .NET Installer

  1. In your [existing] installer project simply right-click on the project (within the solution explorer) and choose Add > Merge Module from the menu.

  2. Select any applicable merge-modules from the dialog, and then click OK.

  3. Build the installer and test it.

Other Installer Products

Please refer to the product documentation if using another application to build your installer.
