Scripted installation --------------------- In addition to the normal installation procedure, you can also create a script for unattended installation. To do this, you need to modify the setup.ini file. This file has a [AutoSetup] group with several values to control the installation process. You can define the following values: * Silent Indicates if the setup process runs invisible and automatically, can be true or false (default). When silent is false, the values below act as defaults in the setup application. * LicenseAgreement Indicates if the license agreement will be shown, can be true (default) or false * Language The language that will be used (enter the filename, like dutch.lang) * Path The installation directory (default "Program Files"\PLSQL Developer) * OverwriteFiles Indicates if there should be a message when overwriting files. True overwrites, false keeps existing files, and empty shows a dialog. * CreateGroup Indicates if a PL/SQL Developer group with shortcuts should be created, can be true (default) or false. * CreateGroupIn The group where the PL/SQL Developer shortcuts will be created. * CreateShortcut Indicates if a shortcut on the desktop should be created, can be true (default) or false. * TemplateFiles Indicates if the template files should be installed, can be true (default) or false * KeywordFiles Indicates if the keyword files should be installed, can be true (default) or false * ExternalExecute Allows you to run an external application after setup has finished successfully. * AutoStart Indicates if PL/SQL Developer should be started after installation, can be true or false (default) To create a completely silent install that will automatically start PL/SQL Developer after installation you can define the section like this: [AutoSetup] Silent=true LicenseAgreement=false Language= Path= CreateGroup=true CreateGroupIn= CreateShortcut=true TemplateFiles=true KeywordFiles=true ExternalExecute= AutoStart=true NOTE: Before you can modify the installation process you need to get the installation files. You can do this by using winzip to extract all files from the exe file.
