How can I create an auto-executing, WinRar SFX file from a batch file?
I have a 3rd-party installer program that I would like for my users to be able to download and run as a pre-requisite to an application that I have written. The installer can take parameters that allows for a passive installation, where the user can watch the progress of the process but doesn't have to interact with the installation.
Previously, I've accomplished this behavior by creating an SFX file in WinRar. From within the options of the WinRAR GUI, you can specify a file to launch after the archive has been decompressed, as well as parameters to the application.
Is there a way to create an SFX file and set these auto-execution properties using the console? I am trying to create a batch file that takes care of all of this.
Below is my batch file content so far:
C:\Progra~1\WinRAR\rar a -m0 installer_archive.rar install_me.exe
C:\Progra~1\WinRAR\rar s开发者_JS百科 installer_archive.rar installer_auto_extractor.exe
After the final step, what should I do hear to update the SFX?
the easy way is like this:
rar a -r -sfx -z"f:\xfs.conf" auto_install install_me.exe
It will automatically create auto_install.exe in windows.And you need to create a xfs.conf file for sfx configuration; My example is:
; The path to the setup executable
Setup=install_me.exe
; Extract the files to a temporary directory
TempMode
; Use semi-silent mode
Silent=1
; Overwrite any existing files
Overwrite=1
; The title of the SFX archive
Title=Running
; The text to show initially when the user clicks on the SFX archive (will only matter if using Silent=0)
Text
{
The book is preparing to start.
}
Tell me if you still have problem.
