To specify a path to write the installer.properties file to, use the command Maple13WindowsInstaller.exe -r <PATH>, where <PATH> is the path to your specified directory.

An installer.properties file created automatically, would look like the following sample:

#Choose Install Folder
#---------------------
USER_INSTALL_DIR=C:\\Program Files\\Maple 13

#Install Desktop Shortcuts
#-------------------------
DESKTOP_SHORTCUTS=\"Yes\",\"\"
DESKTOP_SHORTCUTS_1=Yes
DESKTOP_SHORTCUTS_2=
DESKTOP_SHORTCUTS_BOOLEAN_1=1
DESKTOP_SHORTCUTS_BOOLEAN_2=0

#Choose Watcom Install Folder
#----------------------------
WATCOM_INSTALL_FOLDER=C:\\watcom-1.3

#Choose the Type of Licensing
#----------------------------
LICENSE=\"Single User License\",\"\"
LICENSE_1=Single User License
LICENSE_2=
LICENSE_BOOLEAN_1=1
LICENSE_BOOLEAN_2=0

#Maplesoft Activation
#--------------------
RUN_ACTIVATION=\"Activate now\",\"\"
RUN_ACTIVATION_1=Activate now
RUN_ACTIVATION_2=
RUN_ACTIVATION_BOOLEAN_1=1
RUN_ACTIVATION_BOOLEAN_2=0

Note: The following needs to be manually added to the file:

INSTALLER_UI=SILENT
WKS_ASSOC_RESULT=Yes
USER_PURCHASE_CODE=
USER_PROXY_YES=1
USER_PROXY_SERVER=
USER_PROXY_PORT=
USER_PROXY_NAME=
USER_PROXY_PASSWORD=
USER_REQUESTED_RESTART=No

You can now use this as your resource for future installs.

  where:
INSTALLER_UI SILENT needs to be included for silent installation.
USER_INSTALL_DIR The install location. Backslashes, spaces, and end of line characters MUST be escaped; the value CANNOT be contained within quotations.
DESKTOP_SHORTCUTS "No" if you do not want shortcuts on your desktop, "Yes" if you do.
USER_REQUESTED_RESTART "No" if you do not want to restart your computer after installation, "Yes" if you do.
RUN_ACTIVATION_BOOLEAN_2 "0" for running the activation step, "1" for skipping the activation step.
For silent single-user installations, this should be set to 1. Activation can be performed when you start Maple.
USER_PURCHASE_CODE Your purchase code. This value only needs to be set if you are activating during installation.
WKS_ASSOC_RESULT "Yes" associates .mw, .mws, .mwz files with Maple 13, "No" does not.
USER_PROXY_YES "0" if you are not activating behind a proxy server, "1" if you are. Only needs to be set if you are activating. If you set this variable to 1, additional settings need to be made (see below).

  1. The OpenWatcom C compiler is used for the Maple compiler feature, which allows you to compile some types of user-written Maple routines to speed up the performance of your code. To install the OpenWatcom C compiler, add these lines to the resource file:

    INSTALL_WATCOM=Yes
    WATCOM_INSTALL_FOLDER=c:\\watcom

     Note: WATCOM_INSTALL_FOLDER must not contain spaces. If the directory name is invalid, Watcom installation will be skipped.

  2. If you set USER_PROXY_YES to 1, you must include your proxy server settings in the resource file:

    USER_PROXY_SERVER=your proxy server's name
    USER_PROXY_PORT=your proxy server's port number
    If your proxy server requires a username and password, specify them with:

    USER_PROXY_NAME=your user name
    USER_PROXY_PASSWORD=your password
    If no username and password are required, you do not need to set these.

  3. Open a command shell.
  4. Launch the installer with the command Maple13WindowsInstaller.exe -f c:\tmp\mapleinstaller.txt (or installer.properties) .

Note: You are not provided with any feedback when you run the installer in this mode.
