#8 command line option -compile

[Kåre Sloth Jensen]

When opening the attached simple project in the ISTool IDE, and select compile everything works as it should.

When trying to use the command line option, it fails (it does not produce anything):
"c:\Program Files\ISTool\ISTool" -compile makesetup.iss

Seems to work fine if complete absolute path to the script file is specified

I confirm this problem.
I am able to get the script to run the preconditions but won't continue on with the rest of the process.
I would really appreciate this being fixed asap as I am in the process of creating an automated build process.

Yes it does work with fully qualified path to the script. Should've tried that!!!

A work-around is to specify a relative path to the current directory, e.g.:
instead of command:

"..\..\..\Inno Setup 5\istool\istool.exe" -compile Setup.iss

use:

"..\..\..\Inno Setup 5\istool\istool.exe" -compile .\Setup.iss

The .\ prefix does the trick. If not used, ISTool attempts to include the project file name to the output path as a directory, e.g.:

C:\MyProject\Setup.iss\Output\

and this - of course - must fail.

instead
"c:\Program Files\ISTool\ISTool" -compile makesetup.iss

write
"c:\Program Files\ISTool\ISTool" -compile "makesetup.iss" (double quote ISS file)
