  169.     ** The notation "\system[32]" is necessary because Windows 95 has only a

  171.         \windows\system32 directory as well.  Where BC installs the files, and
  172.         where they should be deployed, depends on the operating system and must
  173.         be determined by the SETUP program at run time.
  174.  
  175.     ** The deployment program InstallShield Express builds must determine 
  176.        at runtime whether it is installing under NT or Win95 and install the 
  177.        appropriate files.

  180.   32-bit Borland Database Engine (BDE) Redistributable Files
  181.   ----------------------------------------------------------
  182.     In accordance with the Additional License Terms of this product, you
  183.     can only distribute the Borland Database Engine files with your application
  184.     using a Borland Certified Redistributable Install program such as
  185.     the BDE Redistributable disk(s) (provided on the Borland C++ CD in the
  186.     \SETUP\IDAPI32 directory), Borland-provided InstallShield Express, or 
  187.     other Borland-certified install programs.  You can redistribute only those 
  188.     BDE files selected by the Borland certified install program.
  189.  
  190.     Borland products which include redistribution rights include a Borland 
  191.     certified install program, such as InstallShield Express, to ensure proper 
  192.     installation and de-installation of your applications so that they co-exist 
  193.     well with other applications that use the Borland Database Engine, 
  194.     including those created with dBASE, Paradox, Delphi, and Borland C++.
  195.  
  196.     InstallShield Express, for instance, makes it easy to properly distribute 
  197.     subsets of the Borland Database Engine.  This is useful, for example, if 
  198.     you want to distribute an application that will only use Paradox tables
  199.     and you don't want to include additional files for dBASE support.
  200.     Borland has also provided details to other install vendors such as
  201.     Sax Software, Great Lakes Business Systems (GLBS) makers of the WISE
  202.     install tool and Eschalon Development so that their products can also
  203.     be ensured to be fully compatible with the Borland Database Engine.
  204.  
  205.     From time to time, Borland may, at its discretion, certify additional
  206.     installation programs for use as the Borland Certified Install Program for
  207.     this product.  To obtain a current list of Borland Certified Install
  208.     programs, check Borland's Web site at http://www.borland.com, Borland's
  209.     CompuServe forum for this product, and Borland's Download BBS
  210.     (408-431-5096).
  211.  
  212.     Note that since we allow deployment of Borland Database Engine files
  213.     and subsets using a Borland Certified Install Program, we don't otherwise
  214.     allow deployment of the individual BDE files.  There are several important
  215.     reasons for this:
  216.  
  217.       o Improper installation of BDE or BDE subsets can cause other
  218.         applications using BDE to fail.  Such applications not only
  219.         include Borland products such as Paradox and dBASE, but many
  220.         other applications using BDE such as those built with Borland C++
  221.         and Delphi.
  222.  
  223.       o Windows 95 and Windows NT now have stringent un-install
  224.         requirements for MS logo certification.  Un-installation of BDE
  225.         components is especially complex, and if not done correctly will
  226.         violate logo requirements and can cause  applications to fail.
  227.  
  228.       o Windows 95 and Windows NT use the registry instead of .INI 
  229.         files, and making the correct entries and deletions for 
  230.         install and un-install is another complex task.
  231.  
  232.     By working closely with Borland Certified Install Program providers,
  233.     we can ensure that all the BDE installation, registry, and un-install
  234.     issues are handled correctly in all cases including subsets of the BDE.
  235.  
  236.  
  237. 3) INSTALLSHIELD EXPRESS
  238. ========================
  239.  
  240.   The InstallShield Express included with the Borland C++ Development 
  241.   Suite and Development Suite with Design Tools versions can be used to
  242.   package an application built with Borland C++ for distribution.
  243.   License information can be found in the help file for InstallShield 
  244.   Express.
