How to read parameter from rul-file

Suppose I run an installer like the following:

setup.exe /v"PARAMETER=Value"

How to read the value of PARAMETER from rul-file?

I understand that I need to use GetProfString and GetProfInt functions but maybe there is a complete example.

I run the installer with the following command

setup.exe /v"SHOWDBGMSGBOX=1"

Then I look into CMDLINE. It is equal to /v"SHOWDBGMSGBOX=1". But how to parse it?

Hi,

The PARAMETER is called as public property in MSI. We can access this property in (rul) file by using MsiGetProperty  function.

Please refer the below url

Thanks,
