I have a frustrating little issue. I have a program that needs to
register a plugin after it is installed. Very easy to do: DtMaxSdk.exe
/register.
My problem is, it has a little popup saying successful. I can't find any
silent switches, and waiting to hear back from the developer if there is
or could be one. The popup comes after it is installed, but if I
include it in WPKG it hangs waiting for someone to acknowledge. Is
there a way to put a timeout on this in the package.xml and have it just
ignore and continue?
Thanks,
Mike
Commands can have a timeout specified, see http://wpkg.org/Timeouts
If there is no need to wait for the program to finish it's job (or if a delay
does it) then using "start" might be an option:
@echo off
start dtmaxsdk.exe /register
:: optional, wait 10 seconds, then continue
ping -n 10 localhost
This will leave the process running and just continue.
You might even juggle with "taskkill" after some wait timeout to terminate the
hanging process, but in many cases this is not really an issue, just leave it
running until next reboot.
br,
Rainer
