1. Build the
installation package with the command line.
• Open the command window with the Run as Administrator option.
• Depending on the version of the InstallShield that you are using, type one
of the following commands in the command line:
IsSaBld.exe -p "C:\OEMAppProfiles\OEMAppProfiles.ism" -a "CD" -r "compressed"
-c COMP –e N -b "C:\build\OEMAppProfile\Output"
Or
"ISCmdBld.exe" -p "C:\OEMAppProfiles\OEMAppProfiles.ism" -a "CD" -r
"compressed" –c COMP –e N -b "C:\build\OEMAppProfile\Output"
Note: DO NOT copy the command lines from this document, type them
in manually.
• The
installation package for deploying the OEM application profile blob
file will be generated in C:\build\OEMAppProfile\Output\CD\compressed
\DiskImages\DISK1.
Note: All of the files generated at this location constitute the installation
package, and should be shipped together.
2. Build the installation package with InstallShield IDE:
•
Replace the existing C:\OEMAppProfiles\Bin\atiapoem.blb file with the one
generated from Generating an OEM Application Profile Blob File.
•
Open the InstallShield template project file, C:\OEMAppProfiles
\OEMAppProfiles.ism in InstallShield IDE.
• Build the installation package:
∘
In the toolbar, click Build.
∘
Or in the main menu, click Build, and select Build Compressed.
∘
Or in the Project Panel, under Media Release, right-click
Compressed, and select Build.
• The
installation package for deploying the OEM application profile blob
file will be generated in C:\OEMAppProfiles\CD\compressed\DiskImages
\DISK1.
Note: All of the files generated at this location constitute the
installation
package, and should be shipped together.
2.2.3.4 Localizing the Installation Package with Orca.exe
Prerequisites:
•
Orca.exe is a tool for editing the Windows® installer package. The Orca installer,
Orca.msi, is available in C:\Program Files\ Microsoft SDKs\Windows\V7.0\Bin\ after
the installation of Microsoft® Windows SDK is completed.
Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows® 7 can be downloaded from the Microsoft
