Question
Is it possible to have a silent installation for JViews?
Answer
It is possible to "silently" install the JViews products. First, you will have to create a response file by installing the product once using the GUI. Then you can use this response file in subsequent silent mode installations.
You can create a response file by running the installer in GUI mode and using the '-r ' option.
For example, on the command console:
> cd C:\RogueWave\
> jviewsdiagrammer87.exe -r C:I\RogueWave\installer87.properties
This will start the installer and you can specify the default behaviors and install the product.
Then, on other machines (or when installing patches on the same machine), you can run the installers in silent mode (-i silent) and refer to the absolute or relative response files with the 'f' option.
For example, on the command console:
> cd C:\RogueWave
> jviewsdiagrammer87.exe -i silent -f C:\RogueWave\installer87.properties
Or, for a patch installation:
> java -jar jviewsdiagrammer87_10.jar -i silent -f C:\RogueWave\installer87.properties
