I have a product install scripted using installscript. Can you please tell me what dependencies the product will have wrt install shield engine?
Also, should the product carry installshield engine with it to be installed? What are the various problems if the product bundles installshield engine with it?

Yes, you should bundle the InstallScript engine. I believe this is done automatically.

Thanks for the reply.
What will be the problems if the product carries Installshield engine along with it?
What will happen if the installation of the engine fails? Will the product installation also fail?

I don't expect any special problems (other than those you may see with other runtime engines)

Yes, the engine is required.
