JVM Question
I have a question about JVMs and InstallSheild.
For our installer, we bundle a JVM on each platform. When we run via the launchers created, the JVMs are found ok.
However, we need to be able to do a silent install for some automated testing. How do you access the bundled jvm during a silent install? It appears as though the launchers extract the bundled jvm, but for a silent install, the launchers aren't used.

What do you mean the launcher isn't used? If you have a luncher, setup.bin, you run the silent install 'setup.bin -silent'
The installer uses the bundled JVM's the same way for Silent, Console and GUI!
Depending on how your variables and default instal locations are handled, you may want to add an options file, look it up in the help but basically, you have entries in it like:
-P installLocation="location"
-V variable="value"
and run: setup.bin -options options.txt -silent
