[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBDS-3446) Add support for IzPack INSTALL_PATH property to predefine installation path

[Denis Golovin (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-3446?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13076267#comment-13076267 ] 

Denis Golovin commented on JBDS-3446:
-------------------------------------

This feature would compliment automated installer. It would be much easier to use than automated installer in case when everything should be done by default. There would be no need to have .xml file just "java -jar installer.jar -console". We should also add flag to accept license by default or it would stop and wait for input.

> In a recent discussion around JBIDE-19852 , it was pointed out that IzPack supports supplying properties to the installer, so that some values are predefined.
> Details are here:
> http://docs.codehaus.org/display/IZPACK/Unattended+Installations
> The idea is that you could run this:
> java -DINSTALL_PATH=/default/path -jar installer.jar
> And this would pre-fill the installation path to the path given in the command.
