Build install with different path (-L still broken)
We have found that the -L switch for path variables still does not work properly in Ishield2011.
If you set a variable like 'VARIABLE=x:\foo' then 'VARIABLE' gets set to x:\foo but other paths like '\bin' do not get set.
OTHER than using an environment variable, how can we use ishield to build the same code on different systems with different paths?

This is an issue of interest to me, as well. There are a couple of other threads that might shed some light on it for you. One is mine, "Has anyone successfully used the "prqpath" parameter for ISCmdBld.exe?" (http://community.flexerasoftware.com/showthread.php?t=196166), and another is "Relative paths in Prerequisites dont work" (http://community.flexerasoftware.com/showthread.php?t=196343) by Magnus. Christopher Painter says he's been using paths successfully for some time, so I'm trying out some of his suggestions. Good luck.
