FILEADDLOCAL property
The value of the FILEADDLOCAL property denotes a list of file keys delimited by commas that are to be installed to run from the local source media. For each file key in the list, the installer determines the component that controls that file, then examines all features linked to that component by the FeatureComponents table and installs the feature that requires the least amount of disk space. The file keys in the list must be present in the File column of the File table.
Remarks
Note that the file key names are case-sensitive. Also note that if the LocalOnly bit flag is set in the Attributes column of the Component table for a component, then the component is installed to run locally.
The installer always evaluates the following properties in the following order.
- ADDLOCAL
- REMOVE
- ADDSOURCE
- ADDDEFAULT
- REINSTALL
- ADVERTISE
- COMPADDLOCAL
- COMPADDSOURCE
- COMPADDDEFAULT
- FILEADDLOCAL
- FILEADDSOURCE
- FILEADDDEFAULT
For example, if the command line specifies: ADDLOCAL=ALL, ADDSOURCE = MyFeature, all the features are first set to run-local and then MyFeature is set to run-from-source. If the command line is: ADDSOURCE=ALL, ADDLOCAL=MyFeature, first MyFeature is set to run-local, and then when ADDSOURCE=ALL is evaluated, all features (including MyFeature) are reset to run-from-source.
The installer sets the Preselected property to a value of "1" during the resumption of a suspended installation or when any of the above properties are specified on the command line.
