Re: [Wrapper-user] Wrapper Run/Install Scripts

[Christian M. <chr...@ta...>]

Hello Geoff,

I'm not sure, I understood 100%, so could you please explain a bit more
what you are trying to do?

You can specify an absolute path to the conf file in the windows batch
files using the _WRAPPER_CONF or _WRAPPER_CONF_DEFAULT variables at the
head of the batch files, e.g.:
_WRAPPER_CONF_DEFAULT=C:\MyApp\conf\myapp.conf

In the windows batch The batch file and the wrapper.exe file have to be in
the same directory, so are you referring that you want to keep the batch
files and the wrapper.exe files in different locations?
If so, with the current batch files, I think you have to change the area
below the "do not modify" section :)

Simply move the line "set _REALPATH=%~dp0" up above the "do not modify"
section and change it to the following:

set _REALPATH=C:\MyApp\bin\

Hope this information helps you out.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Thank you,

Christian Mueller
