Internet Explorer is required for the on-line help system; version 7 or 8 is recommended as version 9 does not currently work correctly.

AVEVA Hull and Outfitting 12.1 requires Microsoft’s .NET Framework 3.5, which is supplied on the DVD and installed if required. It should be noted that installation of version 3.5 brings with it several of the earlier versions, on which it depends.

The updated version of .NET used for AVEVA Hull and Outfitting 12.0.SP6 onwards may prevent .NET add-ins running if deployed on a network. This will not usually cause an issue as AVEVA recommends a local installation on each machine, but might cause problems for customers running their own add-ins.

.NET security can cause issues when running AVEVA Hull and Outfitting across the network where the add-in assemblies reside on a different machine to the .NET runtime. The default security level for the local intranet is not set to Full Trust, which means that programs may not be able to access resources on the local machine. To overcome this, the intranet security may be set to Full Trust, though this means that any .NET assembly may run. Alternatively, Full Trust may be given to a specified group of strongly named assemblies.

Trust levels may be set using the Microsoft Code Access Security Policy tool caspol. For details, please see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cb6t8dtz(v=VS.90).aspx.
