Does the release wizard generate a new Package Code each time it is invoked
from the GUI or the command-line?

Or does this have to be done manually?

By default, the Release wizard doesn't change the package code, but you can
generate a new code each time by selecting a product configuration icon in
the Releases view and setting Generate Package Code to Yes.

An important note:
If you build from the command line, a new package code will NOT be generated
by default, even if you set the Generate Package Code property in the
release wizard to Yes.

If you want a new package code to be generated when you build from the
command line, you have to set the Generate Package Code property to Yes, and
you have to pass the release configuration name on the command line,

assuming in your Releases view, you have a product configuration named
"myproductconfiguration" and under it you have a release named
"myreleasename", an example command line would be:

IsCmdBld.exe -p "c:\myprojects\myproject.ism" -r "myreleasename" -a
"myproductconfiguration"

Thanks folks.

We will be building both from the ISWI GUI _AND_ from our automated build
environment.

So I think you've both answered the question.
