Setting the installation path with a command line option

[MarcoE]

I have created a .net dll which must be installed with a setup (named "first setup"). I created the setup and it works fine. I'm getting a few dialogs and one of the dialogs is for the "installation path". The default is the application path.
Now I'm calling the first setup from a second setup in which I have set an installation path, for instance "d:\appl".
The second setup installs my main application in this folder (d:\appl) and the then calls the first setup. I want the .dll to be installed in the folder I have set second setup (d:\appl), and I want the setup to go quit.
To go quit I can set /qb (no dialogs and a progress box), but the dll is placed in the application folder of the second setup.
My question: Is it possible to set the installation path with a command line param?
Somthing like setup.exe /qb /path="d:\appl".

Give the constructor of your installer application the ability to accept Arguments. Then when you call the the second installer by code, you can pass the application path as argument in the constructor.

Make sure you have Properties & methods to handle the passed argument.


Also, I believe its required to post in ducth on these forums.
