Note: The ADO and ADO.NET clients are currently available only in OpenAccess SDK 8.1. However, they are compatible with the OpenAccess SDK 9.0 server.
The ADO Client installer provides a command-line option for silent installations on Windows. For example, if you want to install a licensed copy of the ADO Client in an installation directory named \Program Files\DataDirect\oaado81 on a 32-bit machine, you would use the following command:
oaado32_win_*version*_setup.exe /s /v"INSTALLDIR=\"C:\Program Files\DataDirect\oaado81\" /qn /l*v \"c:\oaado32.txt\""
Silent installations are useful for system administrators who want to create a batch file to execute the initial installation of multiple identical ADO Clients.
