Runtime Installer:

The Latest Runtime/BDE only installer can be found on our website :

http://www.dbase.com/support/updates/

 

These are the Runtime Installer command line options…

/S                                                                     

- Silent Mode

/X “<Runtimepath>”                                       

-  Installation path of the Runtime

/V COMMONBDEDIR “<BDEPath>”             

-  Installation path of BDE Admin

/E                                                                     

-  Enable event logging and create a c:\sbevents.txt log file

/E1                                                                   

-  Enable event logging and create an unique event logging file in form of sbevents_GUID.txt

/E2 [“<folder>\]<filename>”                           

-  Enable event logging and use filename to create a c:\filename log file

/E3 [“<folder>\]<filename>”                           

- Lets you set the folder (optional) and name of the event logging file (/E3 "[folder\]filename"). This creates an unique event logging file. If the filename is not unique, then a number in round braces will be added to the filename before the extension, and will continue adding numbers until the filename is unique.

If using /S and NOT /X or /V COMMONBDEDIR  the system defaults for these paths are used.

“<runtimepath>\]PlusRuntime-bxxxx.exe” /S /X “C:\Program Files\dBASE\Plus\Runtime” /V COMMONBDEDIR “C:\Program Files\Common Files\Borland\BDE” /E3 “C:\PlusRuntime-bxxxx\InstallerLog\Install_bxxxx.log”

 - This will install in Silent mode to the directories stated and create a unique log called Install_bxxxx.log or Install_bxxxx.log (x)

dBASE Plus Installer:

The command line options for the full dBASE Plus installer are as follows:

/S                                                                     

- Silent Mode

/X “<dBASEpath>”                                       

-  Installation path of the the dBASE Plus files.

/V COMMONBDEDIR “<BDEPath>”             

-  Installation path of BDE Admin

/V <languageOption> 0 or 1

- 0 is OFF and 1 is ON.
The default for a all language support files in dBASE is 1. So, unless you want to turn off an option for a language ... leave this command out. The language files are very small so, it should not be necessary to use this option. However, you can, if you wish, turn on or off any of these languages by using this option.

The languages that are available currently are:

ENGLISH, GERMAN, ITALIAN, SPANISH AND JAPANESE

if you wanted to leave out the language files for Italian for example you would do ...

/V ITALIAN 0
