[izpack-users] Passing arguments to executable

[Bartz, Klaus]

Hi Riaan,
I do not know whether your problems can be triggert by using an inlined
install.xml.
My be writte an external install.xml and refer it in your IzPack call in
the ant script.
 
Call the installation in a cmd like
java -DTRACE=TRUE -jar install.jar
and look to the output. The call command will be written on stdout (and
much more).
 
Cheers
 
Klaus

	Hi Klaus,
	
	I'm specifying it in my ant build script for my app:
	
	From Ant Script:
	
	....
	<taskdef name="izpack"
	
classpath="${installerBasedir}/libs/standalone-compiler.jar"
	        classname="com.izforge.izpack.ant.IzPackTask" />
	...
	</target>
	....
	      <izpack output="${installerOutputdir}/Installer.jar"
	            installerType="standard"
	            basedir="${installerBasedir}">
	            <config><![CDATA[
