New Command Line Parameter Supporting for License Check Time-Out
When using a concurrent license server, there could be a time when all licenses are in use and you want your build to wait for some time for the previous build to finish and checkout license. The newly added command line parameter “-licCheckTimeOut <secs>” helps to set the time period to check the availability of the license from the license server. Example command line is “IsCmdBld.exe -p "C:\InstallShield 2020 Projects\TestProj.ism" -licCheckTimeOut 40”.
