Hi,

we are currently evaluating InstallAware capabilities in automated build processes.
the following was observed with X12:

Using

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files (x86)\InstallAware X12\miabuild.exe" "D:\_Projects\TheProject\TheProject.mpr" /b=1

the result is located at the usual "D:\_Projects\TheProject\Release\Single" folder BUT consists of a TheProject.exe and a data folder

Using

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files (x86)\InstallAware X12\miabuild.exe" "D:\_Projects\TheProject\TheProject.mpr" /b=1 /o="d:\single"

the result is located at "D:\single\Release\Single" and contains a single TheProjecxt.exe

Watching the output in the cmd window, I can see the compression taking place while executing the second version - not during the first. Is this an expected behaviour? The need to specify an output folder to activate compression?

Is there a way to get a single file result without specifying the output root folder?


kind regards
Anja

Both parameters, "/b" and "/o", are optional and override default settings as defined with the project..

So just specify your settings with the project, and without passing those parameters from command line.

Hello Francesco,

I uninstalled and reinstalled X12 today and can no longer reproduce this behaviour. So maybe all was just due to some system quirk. No idea. Have a fine weekend.

kind regards
Anja
