Essentially my question now is how do i get meaningful return values
using "ignore" or "check" and put them in a Property without the
installer ending due to the return value?
I've managed to change the command argument with other customactions
that change the QtExecCmdLine property
I've triggered it from the dialog using DoAction:
1
1
I still haven't taclked putting the return value in a property, but i
notice that you don't tell CAQuietExec to use QtExecCmdLine, so when i
came to adding a second command line call I hit a wall, is there a way
Ok I have it running ping using CAQuietExec, I think this maybe a step
in the right direction. I just need to deal with triggering it from a
dialog button click and capturing the return value to inspect, so I can
display an appropriate message.
