I have a lib file that contains a bunch of files and a desktop shortcut to one of the binaries. I then have my (product.wxs) main installation XML file. My project has a reference to the lib file. It all compiles and links perfectly. (My MSI is perfectly functional at this point)
BUT: If I remove the section that contains the info to create the desktop shortcut and move it to the Product.wxs, everything still compiles and links without errors, but the content of my lib file is completely ignored. My msi goes from 30MB to 900KB. Question: Should I be able to take the shortcut section out of my lib file and put it in my main wxs file? The reason I want to do this is the binary name installed will always be the same but the name to the desktop shortcut is set later through a variable in a WXI (The contents of the lib remain, but the shortcut name can change depending on who builds the package) file which is referenced in the product.wxs file. Hopefully this question is clear enough. Thanks for the Advice Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites. So do we.
