How to know when a build is finished without GUI?

[mcognik2]

Hi lads,

I'm currently working on an installer that is automatically built using Advanced Intaller by kicking off the build using the command line arguments through C#. However, since it is being built through the command line, the usual GUI is not generated so there is no easy way (that I can think of) to know when the package has been built and that it is okay for my program to proceed.

Is there a way of having Advanced Installer signal back to my C# program that the build has been completed or something similar?

Thanks

Hello and welcome to our forums,

Our predefined support for building using Advanced Installer through command line (AdvancedInstaller.com) always returns an exit code uppon finishing the process. For a list containing the return codes, you can check our "Command line return codes" article.

Hope this helps!
