Passing a string value when I run a silent installation
I have an InstallShield Install script project.
I created my .iss file for a silent installation. When I run it from the command line it works as expected. Now I am wondering, is there a way to pass a string value to my setup.exe file when I run it in silent install mode? I have tried the following but it is not working. I tried using the "/v" switch but that does not work"
C:>TestDir>Setup.exe /s /f1"C:\TestDir\setup.iss" /v"MyTestParameter=HelloWorld"
Where MyTestParameter is defined as a global string in my setup.rul file.
ex: string MyTestParameter;
For InstallScript projects use the variable CMDLINE to get the command line.
see the online help for details.
