Using .i3pub Files

A separate executable is shipped with CIC called EICPublisherU.exe that allows users to install the i3pub files without the need for Interaction Designer. EICPublisherU is a simple command-line utility that can read .i3pub files and finish publishing them to the current CIC server. In addition to publishing, EICPublisherU also activates the handler as selected by the Interaction Designer user who created the intermediate file. Users can simply double-click on an .i3pub file and EICPublisherU runs automatically to publish the .i3pub file to their server.

For example, a reseller can make changes to a handler, generate an .i3pub file, and then make an install program that includes the i3pub file. When their customer runs the install program, it executes EICPublisherU to publish the .i3pub file.
