Hi to all,
I used to call setup.exe within a DOS batch file passing some parameters.
Inside setup I extracted them using:
  StrGetTokens (listParameter, CMDLINE, " ");
Well, I'd like to package that setup into a self-extracting executable but I discovered that way doesn't work!
If I choose to package the setup into a self-extracting executable file with the Media wizard help I notice there is a setup command line parameters line to fill, but at build time I don't know the parameters, that's because I choose to start setup by a DOS batch file...
Are there others way to pass parameters to a self-extracting executable?


Thanks to all,
ciao Giuseppe

To pass other parameters to the setup contained with a self-extracting excutable, use -a followed by your normal argument list.  The 'a' means additional.

Thanks, it was very simple but I can't reach it by myself!

I think you mean that you couldn't "figure it out" by yourself.

Aren't these two phrases the same?
If not, I apologize for my bad english...
