Execute external exe with parameters using InstallShield.
hi,
I have to execute a java code for which created exe. Tried to launch this exe using LaunchAppAndWait,
something like this:
LaunchAppAndWait(szProgram,szCmdLine, LAAW_OPTION_WAIT);
where szProgram="sampleJavaCode.exe"
and szCmdLine="param1 param2>log.txt".
With this code, command prompt is launched and then nothing happens.
Need help.

[thread=193982]This thread[/thread] might help. The Windows functions that LaunchAppAndWait uses don't support output redirection with > (the command processor does that), so you might need to launch a batch file or launch cmd.exe directly, assuming the command works without the > part.
