InstallShield Suite Projects - Windows Features order of operations and reboot behavior
I have an InstallShield Suite project, which is structured in the following way:
Suite
- package A
- installs files which will enable the Windows Features that will be installed during package B
- package B
- installs Windows Features using Suite project's Windows Features functionality. These features require a reboot if they're installed
- package C
- requires Windows Features to be configured and working
After testing, I see in the debug logs that it's installing Windows Features first and then installs each package. I have a dependency which requires the Windows feature to be in the order specified above. I don't see options in InstallShield to modify this.
Also, if a Windows Feature requires a reboot, I see the logs state it's deferring the reboot. I actually need it to reboot and configure the features before moving on.
How can I configure the suite project to respect my order of operations and specify the reboot behavior for the Windows feature?
