Similar to how variable support was added for post\pre-(un)install
Please add these variables to custom command line as well
For example, we have several apps and would like more control over the install location. Especially for supporting multiple versions of the app installed. The installer will write registry keys, to the path, and make icons and source folders. We can't reliably move these after install. Yet we can use /dir or /d to move this path yet can't add the version to this as this changes per release and will allow for only one version of app installed at a atime.
I tried using a script to get content of the package.xml and edit the line containing the install command to swap out with version number
Yet the pre script runs from the xml so would have needed to essentially run the installer twice for desired effect
Was given recommendation by a support member to have a post-install uninstall the app, then reinstall using desired paths. Going to do this for now, yet having the app install itself twice feel excessive.
Thank you
