RequiredAppLinks
The RequiredAppLinks parameter specifies a list of required packages to import to the base package at
runtime. You can configure this parameter in the Package.ini file of the base package.
If the import operation for any dependent package fails, an error message appears and the base executable file
exits. You can use the OptionalAppLinks parameter instead to continue even when load errors occur. If you
use a wildcard pattern to specify a package and files do not match the wildcard pattern, ThinApp does not
generate an error message.
Importing packages involves the following operations:

Running VBScripts from imported packages

Starting autostart services from imported packages

Registering fonts from imported packages

Relocating SxS DLL files from Windows XP to Windows Vista
You must create a link to the primary data container of a package. You cannot link to other shortcut packages.
Path names are on the deployment machine because the linking takes effect at runtime on the client machine.
Use semicolons to separate the linked packages. For information about pathname formats, see “Application
Link Pathname Formats” on page 91.
Examples
If you package the .NET framework in the dotnet.exe package and you have a .NET application, you can
specify that the application needs to link to the dotnet.exe file before it can start.
RequiredAppLinks=C:\abs\path\dotnet.exe
You can specify a relative path.
RequiredAppLinks=<relative_path>\dotnet.exe
You can specify a UNC path.
RequiredAppLinks=\\server\share\dotnet.exe
You can use ThinApp folder macros in the path value.
RequiredAppLinks=%SystemSystem%\Package.dat
You can use environment variables in the path value. The risk of using environment variables is that a user
might change the values before starting the application and create an Application Link dependency other than
the one that the administrator set up.
RequiredAppLinks=%MyEnvironmentVariable%\Package.dat
You can import a single package located in the same directory as the base executable file.
RequiredAppLinks=Plugin.exe
You can import a single package located in a subdirectory of the base executable file.
RequiredAppLinks=plugins\Plugin.exe
You can import all executable files located in the directory for plug ‐ in files. If ThinApp cannot import any
executable file because the file is not a valid Thinapp package or because a security problem exists, the base
executable file fails to load.
RequiredAppLinks=plugins\*.exe
You can import all executable files located at the n:\plugins absolute path.
RequiredAppLinks=n:\plugins\*.exe
