Application builder

[Esben]

Hey
I'm using LV5.1.1 and its applaication builder.
In the application builders Installer -> Advanced menu it's possible to Run
a executable after installtion.
But it dosen't work.
I use following settings:

Executeble : Test.bat
Command line argument: "c:\"

How do i use the %xxx arguments?


Has anyone a suggestion.

hi, Esben
instead of using c:\test.bat use the following c:\test.exe the Application
Builder creates a EXE not a batch file....? hope this works.

Hi i think you misunderstod me.
It's not the exe file that i build, that is the problem.
It's the installer, under installer settings there is an advanced button,
under these advanced settings it's possible to run another executeble file
after the installation of the labview program. And that is here í can't
figure out what i'm doing wrong.

Regards Esben

The easiest way to run your executable is to add it as a support file. If you add test.exe as a support file, all you have to do to run it afterward is go to Run Executable After Installation and for the Executable input, type: test.exe
