Hi,
I am just porting one of our setup projects from "Visual Studio Setup &
Deployment" to WiX. So far everything looks good, but I have one major problem.
There is an "example" subdirectory in the installation directory. I have to
install a shortcut to this directory in the start menu of Windows. I have
already installed a lot of shortcuts to files, but I do not know how to install
a shortcut to a directory.
I have already tried several approaches, but I am always getting error messages
when building the WiX project, e.g.:
<DirectoryRef Id="APPLICATIONROOTDIRECTORY">
<Directory Id="API_DirExamples" Name="examples">
...
</Directory>
<Component Id="Test" Guid="634c82e9-8adc-48cd-b054-ca2365a95b66">
<Shortcut Id="API_StartMenuExamples" Name="Examples"
Directory="Main_DirStartMenu" Advertise="yes" />
</Component>
</Directory>
I am getting this error:
error LGHT0204: ICE18: KeyPath for Component: 'Test' is Directory:
'API_DirExamples'. The Directory/Component pair must be listed in the
CreateFolders table.
Adding a <RegistryValue> to the component results into other error messages.
Best regards,
Marco
