# JT2GO Installer Automated installer for Siemens JT2Go 2512 with prerequisite checking and silent installation support. ## Overview JT2Go is a free 3D CAD viewer for viewing JT, PDF, and other CAD formats. This installer automates the installation process by: 1. Checking for required prerequisites 2. Installing missing components automatically 3. Running the main JT2Go installer ## Prerequisites Checked | Component | Detection Method | Installer | |-----------|------------------|-----------| | Visual C++ 2015-2022 x86 | Registry check | `VC_redist.x86.exe` | | Visual C++ 2015-2022 x64 | Registry check | `VC_redist.x64.exe` | | .NET Framework 4.8 | Registry (Release >= 528040) | `NDP48-x86-x64-AllOS-ENU.exe` | ## Files Required ``` JT2GO/ ├── JT2GO.iss # Inno Setup script ├── JT2GoSetup.exe # Main JT2Go installer (not in git) ├── VC_redist.x86.exe # Visual C++ x86 (not in git) ├── VC_redist.x64.exe # Visual C++ x64 (not in git) ├── NDP48-x86-x64-AllOS-ENU.exe # .NET 4.8 (not in git) ├── CustomInstall.bat # Helper batch file ├── gea-logo.ico # Setup icon ├── patrick.bmp # Wizard banner (164x314) └── patrick-sm.bmp # Wizard small image (55x58) ``` ## Usage ### Interactive Installation 1. Compile `JT2GO.iss` with Inno Setup Compiler 2. Run the generated `JT2GOSetup.exe` 3. The installer will: - Display detected/missing prerequisites - Ask for confirmation to install missing components - Install prerequisites silently - Launch JT2Go installer ### Silent Installation ```batch JT2GOSetup.exe /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES ``` With logging: ```batch JT2GOSetup.exe /VERYSILENT /SUPPRESSMSGBOXES /LOG="C:\install.log" ``` ## How It Works ### Prerequisite Detection **Visual C++ Redistributables:** ``` HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\VC\Runtimes\x64 HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\VC\Runtimes\x86 ``` **.NET Framework 4.8:** ``` HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v4\Full Release value >= 528040 ``` ### Installation Flow 1. **InitializeSetup** - Verify admin privileges 2. **Prerequisite Check** - Scan registry for installed components 3. **Display Summary** - Show what will be installed 4. **Install Prerequisites** - Run installers silently (`/quiet /norestart`) 5. **Handle Reboot** - If .NET requires reboot, notify user 6. **Install JT2Go** - Run main installer (`/L1033 /S /v"/qn /norestart"`) ## Customization ### Adding More Prerequisites Edit the `[Code]` section in `JT2GO.iss`: ```pascal function IsMyComponentInstalled: Boolean; begin // Add your registry check here Result := RegKeyExists(HKLM, 'SOFTWARE\YourComponent'); end; ``` ### Changing JT2Go Version Update the installer filename and parameters in the script: ```pascal JT2GoInstaller := ExpandConstant('{src}\JT2GoSetup.exe'); JT2GoParams := '/L1033 /S /v"/qn /norestart"'; ``` ## Troubleshooting ### "Requires administrator privileges" Right-click the installer and select "Run as administrator" ### Prerequisites install but JT2Go fails Check if JT2Go requires additional components not covered by this installer ### Silent install shows dialogs The `/qn` flag ensures fully silent MSI installation. If dialogs appear, the MSI parameters may need adjustment. ## Building 1. Install [Inno Setup 6.x](https://jrsoftware.org/isdl.php) 2. Download required installers to the JT2GO folder 3. Open `JT2GO.iss` in Inno Setup Compiler 4. Click Build > Compile (or press F9) 5. Output: `Output/JT2GOSetup.exe` ## Author WJDT / GE Aerospace
