I'm using Advanced Installer to wrap up my executable into a nice friendly package. I would normally launch the executable from the command line via something like this:
> myExecutable.exe firstArg secondArg
Now I'm trying to add these arguments into the Advanced Installer package somehow but it is unclear how to do this. Some posts have suggested I need to add a private or public property, but they don't explain how to do this well. I feel like there should be some straightforward way how to do this within the AI GUI. Any help is much appreciated, thanks!!
In the Finish Actions
panel of the ExitDialog
is a Launch Application
section. It allows you to specify your application path and arguments.
As for using a property, use the Install Parameters
screen to add your public (all caps) or private property and simply reference it as [MY_PUBLIC_PROPERTY]
in the Arguments:
text box.
