Actually it does extract the data to directory named "--help" as it should do. Really, I missed somehow... Anyway --something should be treated as argument not as parameter. --extract --javahome <java> doesn't extract anything to --javahome directory as I see. I`d rather say no, it should not. The supported launcher arguments are specified as well as their syntax. If I really wanna to extract to "--help" directory what should I do in the case you are proposing? :) --javahome arguments (with <java> parameter) is read first so the rest of the command results in data extracting to the current directory. Did you ever try to use ant task name with dash first? :) > --javahome ... is read first Very good, how about "--extract --verbose"? > If I really wanna to extract to "--help" directory... Currently I want to extract to "--verbose". Help me! :) what is the common between ant and nbi launcher? To extract to "--verbose" directory just try <installer> --verbose --extract --verbose Common way to treat parameters with special prefixes - or -- or / or something
else. There are some limitations, yes.
> <installer> --verbose --extract --verbose
I hope you agree this is bit sophisticated :)
Not really, given that the workaround is nicely described here. This issue is in fact an issue in the NBI engine, not the NetBeans installer. Fixed. |
