How to define Setup File Name at build time in InstallShield

Question

We are launching our installer build using IsCmdBld.exe and would like to define at buildtime the name of the Setup File Name .exe

I have tried doing this by passing a command similar to this:

IsCmdBld.exe -p c:\project_path\installer_project.ism -c "My Custom Configuration" -z "SetupFileName=My App 1.0"

Unfortunately, it seems SetupFileName is ignored.

Anybody got ideas?

This may not be the exact answer you are looking for, but if you want to change the name within the project for each build, go to the Media / Releases menu. Click on the project name under "Releases", and in the General information is the Setup File Name. Enter your desired name here without the '.exe' extension.
