Bugreport: issuite-automation, Release.PostBuildEvent sets PreBuildEvent instead

[RalfJaenike]

because i don't have/want a maintenance plan i'm posting this issue here:

i'm using ISWiAutoSuite24.ISWiSuiteRelease automation object in vbs to build issuite on CI
trying to set the "PostBuildEvent"Property lead to the result that "PreBuildEvent" was set instead
(PreBuildEvent also sets PreBuildEvent)
i did not test it with ISWiAuto24.ISWiRelease object but it should be worth a look


ciao Ralf

save this as .vbs file and run with csxript.exe(342bit)

Set oISM = WScript.CreateObject("ISWiAutoSuite24.ISWiProject")	'instantiate suite-object
oISM.OpenProject ".\projectFile.issuite", True			'open issuite-file with readonly=true
set oRelease = oISM.ISWiSuiteReleases("Release")		'instantiate suite-release object

oRelease.ProductVersionOverride = "1.0.0"
oRelease.ProductNameOverride="my cool productname"
oRelease.SetupFileName = "my-cool-setup"	'resulting file has no .exe extension, allthough documentation states ".exe" is concatted automtatically
oRelease.PostBuildEvent = "cmd /c xcopy /dcy ""\\\Diskimages\Disk1\*.*"" ""c:\outpath\"""	'this will set PreBuildEvent, not PostbuildEvent

oISM.SaveProject	'save file works allthough readonly argument on OpenProject is set

oRelease.Build		 'build throws ISDEV : fatal error -5047 as long as project is opened with non fully qualified path

oISM.CloseProject
