Build Automation - Can the LanucherName be set programatically?

[mrudolph]

I want to be able to set a different LauncherName per Build. The UI makes it look like this should work but it does not so I am wondering if this can be done via the command line.

I am using 12.8.

Thanks

Hello,

I'm not sure I fully understand your scenario. Can you please give us more details regarding your scenario?

Best regards,

We have 5 Builds. CD/DVD Autorun page allows user to turn on/off Create Autorun Launcher per build but does not allow us to do the following:

Build 1 creates built into Build1.exe with Create Autorun Launcher and Launcher name Build1Setup.exe
Build 2 creates built into Build2.exe with no Create Autorun Launcher
Build 3 creates built into Build3.exe with Create Autorun Launcher and Launcher name Build3Setup.exe
Build 4 creates built into Build4.exe with no Create Autorun Launcher
Build 5 creates built into Build5.exe with Create Autorun Launcher and Launcher name Build5Setup.exe

This makes us have to edit the autorun.inf.

Hello,

Thank you for clarifying the scenario. I've tested and replicated it. This seems to be an Advanced Installer issue. A fix will be available in a future version of Advanced Installer, thank you for bringing it to our attention. We will notify you as soon as the fix will be out.

Until then, I'm afraid there is no workaround other than manually modifying the inf file (as you already saw).

All the best,
Daniel

Are you going to address this issue?

Hello,

I'm very sorry, but this issue still has a pending status. Also our development team is quite busy at the moment so I'm afraid I cannot give you any ETA for now.

Thank you for your understanding.

All the best,
Daniel
