[Express 2019] Automating to Create QuickPatch Projects and build them

Jump to solution

I'd like to automate the creation of Quick Patch Projects with Batch Scripts or any other Scripting Language and let them build afterwards to include this process into our Continous Integration.

How can i achieve this?

You can build your installers from the command line using ISCmdBld.exe, more details can be found here:

If you find that this doesn't have the options you require to modify the project before you build you may want to take a look at the Installshield Automation Interface - however this is only available in the Professional and Premier Editions.

I hope this helps.
