This installs BTDF Biztalk application MSI C:\mybtdfMsi.msi, into install directory C:\program files\mybtdfMsi.

In this example, the custom deploy options, VDIR_USERNAME, VDIR_USERPASS and ENV_SETTINGS are the only deployment options required to deploy the app.

Note how the value of one of the BTDF deploy options, "/p:ENV_SETTINGS", is double quoted twice """c:\program files\mybtdfMsi\Deployment\PortBindings.xml""". Please make sure values with spaces are double quoted twice in the deploy, undeploy and install options hastable
