My exit code has a meaning. That's why I wanted to write my own "return code processor." If I ignore the return code, I'll be okay in situations where the exe returns a success code 1, but what if it returns 3, 4, 5, ... other error codes. I wouldn't be able to process these error codes.
If the exit code returned by the program has no meaning, can you just make the custom action ignore the return code?
