We are trying to install a Java program to run as a windows service. Of the various available options(JSW, YAJSW, Launch4J, procrun, WinRun4J etc etc), we would like to use srvany.exe and install it using InstallShield. The Windows documentation says ...


Using RegEdit : create a 'Parameters' key for your service (e.g. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesMyServiceParamaters )
Using RegEdit : within the newly created 'Parameters' key , create a string value called Application and enter the full path to the application you are wanting to run as a service.


Is there a way to achieve this using InstallShield without using InstallShield's registry editor? Is there an InstallScript call that can take care of adding and removing 'Parameters' to the srvany entry in the registry? The solution should to work for Windows 2008R2 & 2003R2.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
