Advanced Installer Features - Import
When creating MSI setups it is of great help if you can get a
head start and don't have to start from scratch. Advanced Installer's
powerful import capabilities allow you to leverage your existing
installers and projects by importing or converting them
into Advanced Installer projects.

Visual Studio project import
Jump-start your product installer by importing your existing
Microsoft Visual Studio project. Advanced Installer will
auto-detect names, files and dependencies, instantly
designing a setup tailored to your application, which you can then
further customize.
Visual Studio
Setup project import
Leverage the time and resources you may have already spent on
your installer by quickly converting your existing
Visual Studio Setup projects to Advanced Installer and
within seconds take advantage of the countless additional features it offers.
WiX project
import
Simplify your installer development by upgrading to Advanced
Installer. Take your WiX projects and easily move them to a
GUI-driven, fully-featured IDE.

Eclipse project import
Simply point Advanced Installer to your Eclipse workspace. It
will automatically detect projects and their dependencies,
instantaneously creating native installers for your Java
applications, complete with native launchers.
MSI/MSM import
Import third party MSI installers and MSM merge modules into
your own existing or newly created Advanced Installer projects.
Complementing the Prerequisites
capability, this feature allows you to:
- Re-package external products and modules
- Customize the intimate details of their behavior
- Unify several installers into a single one
Repackage
Advanced Installer's fully-featured Repackager allows you to
capture any installation using any installer
technology and repackage them as Windows Installer-based
MSI setups.
