Will Dinyes updated JBDS-1268:
------------------------------

    Attachment: InstallConfigRecord.xml


Output InstallConfigRecord.xml from an interactive install.  Note that using this file results in a proper install location, but no shortcut, and no connection to a JBoss server or other features.

>          Issue Type: Feature Request
>          Components: installer
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.0.GA
>         Environment: Java 1.6 (Sun), RHEL 5.5

> Currently, the install process outputs an InstallConfigRecord.xml file, which for a general IzPack install, would contain all the information needed to repeat the install in exactly the same way, but without prompts.  
> However, the output file does not currently contain all the required info.  The only sections included are the install path, and JBDS short cut panel.  When using this file to perform an automated install via:
> java -jar jbdevstudio-3.0.0.GA.jar InstallConfigRecord.xml
> The install goes to the right directory, but the short cut does not appear to be created.
> It would be great if this file could be used to automate an installation.  In my particular case, the reason is that we will have instructors and students doing weekly installs of the software, and if we could streamline that process, it would free up more time for learning how to use the dev tools (which are great, by the way).
