Hi,
I am running some updates with Rapport and using the Creating Rapport 4 Packages guide found on this site.
I have noticed that a lot of existing scripts and samples have a “+” after calling an installer of executable, this is also sometimes followed by a value i.e. “+60”
This does not seem to be documented anywhere can anyone please illuminate me on what this is doing please?
❓December 15, 2006 at 7:42 am #8919Hi MV,
If you are using the packages I created I hope they work 🙂
The switch is documented in the Rapport Script CHM in the Rapport downloads section and not in the orriginal package guide (sorry). Basically the + means wait until the exe has finished before procceding to the next script command line. A +60 would mean to wait 60 seconds before procceding.
Thanks for using the site,
Cheers,

Yes your scripts work great! And I am now going to add plenty of +’s to mine.
😀I have downloaded the WA Daylight Savings update, this patch has some issues and if reinstalled will uninstall or cause some rather odd things to occur. MS has released an update to this and I have created a Script to deploy that is now working on my S90’s quite well.
If I can upload it anywhere please let me know.
Many thanks
December 17, 2006 at 11:08 pm #8925I sent you a PM but email me the updated package and I will post it.
Wow, other people sending me stuff – I love it!
Thanks for the support MV!
January 19, 2007 at 5:02 pm #8965What is the * for. I see in sample code
LU*I cant figure that one out.
Is there a way to use an If statement?
Has anyone used KIXtart? I was thinking of creating a rapport script that would copy the KIX files over and run them. You can create more complicated scripts if needed that way.
Not that you necasarily WOULD need to but if you wanted to.
January 19, 2007 at 10:31 pm #8966Thanks a good question, I have not found the * to do anything but it is in some scripts.
Yes, I use a Rapport script to copy and launch a cmd, vbs or whatever script you would like all the time. In this way using Rapport as a wrapper for my script. You would have to check for the existance of the Kix files and install then if they dont exist,
Cheers,
-TTJanuary 20, 2007 at 1:44 am #8971The * following a command tells the hagent to continue processing the script even if an error is returned.
When used with LU command “LU*” tells the hagent to unlock the device “EL” if and error is returned in the script before the EL command.
You might also see this used on delete file commands “DF*” where the file may not exist.
Does this help?
