About the Object Types

Object types allow the grouping of data objects in easy-to-understand relationships. For example, all Crystal Reports files are associated with the CrystalRPT object type.

Some object types require that a special system command be run after the file is downloaded to the client computer. For example, the only file type stored in the .NET Assembly (GAC) type are shared assemblies that are deployed to the Global Assembly Cache. After a file of this type is downloaded, Aptify runs the Gacutil.exe program to add the shared assembly to the .NET GAC.
