Relative Path InstallAnyWhere Automation
Hey all,
I would like to automate the process of building the InstallAnyWhere installer of my project. I have built the ANT tasks to deploy everything and create the IAW installer using its IAP_XML file, however, I couldn't find a way to include relative paths to files and folders that needs to be installed. for example, I need to use "../../tmp" in file locations without explicitly having clear paths defined. These dots needs to be relevant to the location of the IAP_XML file.
I tried editing the IAP_XML file myself with these relative dot locations ../.. but the build failed.
Please post in your comments on that.. I REALLY NEED YOUR HELP AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
THANK YOU SO MUCH

Hello
I suggest you read the Source Paths chapter in the IA manual, this is what you're looking for. However, these source paths are per project and per user, so you set them once, and everything becomes relative to the set source paths.
