Where does Installation live in the IronQR API?

Installation is a static class in the IronQr namespace, shipped in IronQr.dll. Its DeploymentPath property is static, so set it directly without constructing an instance.

How do you fix IronQR native deployment errors in a container?

Set Installation.DeploymentPath at startup to a folder the process can write to, ideally on a persistent volume. The native QR components stage there on first use; an unwritable path causes the failures seen as IronQrNativeException.

Class Installation

A directory with write-access where setup and temporary files and will be deployed when necessary.

Inheritance

System.Object

Installation

Namespace: IronQr

Assembly: IronQr.dll

Syntax

public static class Installation : Object

The writable directory where IronQR stages its setup and temporary files is set through Installation.DeploymentPath. IronQR ships native components for QR detection, and on first use it deploys them to a working folder. When the default location is not writable, which is common in containers, locked-down servers, and some hosting environments, point DeploymentPath at a folder the process can write to.

Set it once at application startup, before the first read or write, since the files are staged lazily on first use. A path on a persistent volume avoids re-deploying the native files on every cold start. A wrong or unwritable path is a frequent cause of native-layer failures, which surface as an IronQrNativeException. On a developer machine the default location usually works, so this property is mainly a deployment concern rather than something set during local development.

Installation.DeploymentPath = "/app/ironqr";

The get started guide covers first-run setup, and the AWS guide shows deployment on a restricted host.
