Subject: How to set permissions on a directory
Hello, I am seeking help for the following scenario:
I have a shared WIX file describing the directory layout. This WIX file is
included in other WIX files:
<Directory Id="DesktopFolder" Name="Desktop"/>
<Directory Id="ProgramFiles64Folder" Name="Program Files">
<Directory Id="dir.MFxRoot" Name="Foo Manageability">
<Directory Id="dir.MFxBuildVersion" Name="$(var.BUILDVERSION)">
<Directory Id="dir.MFxBuildVersionEnUS" Name="en-us">
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
In a different WIX file I reference the directories via DirectoryRef.
I like to set permissions on the dir.MFxRoot folder. I looked at the Permission
element in WIX help and saw that it does not list the Directory or DirectoryRef
element as parent. I do understand that there is a CreateFolder element, which
allows setting permissions, but I am not seeing a reason using it, since my
directory hierarchy is already created by virtue of specifying the directory
layout.
How can I set permissions on the dir.MFxRoot directory, but keep sharing the
directory layout in a separate file?
Thank you
