ISM to XML in CMD
Hello there,
I have a project to implement an "auto update" off my Perl scripts to automate "Product Code" version and "GUID" off all my Install Shield 2008 ISM projects.
I understood that you need to convert ".ism" files into ".xml" files to access the tables. I wasn't able to find any information with respect to this task. Is there a way to convert an ISM project to an XML file and vice-versa in Command Line?
I look forward to any suggestions...
Chris

Actually, you can use the InstallShield Automation interface with Perl to modify project properties without converting between project formats. Searching these forums for "perl automation" will give some examples.
