I am new to WiX and I am having trouble creating directories. The following
Directory definition works, that is, the directory is created and the single
file in the install is written to it.
<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
<Directory Id="ProgramFilesFolder">
<Directory Id="ATest1" Name="ATest1">
<Directory Id="ATest2" Name="ATest2">
<Directory Id="CONTROL_PANEL"
Name="ControlPanel" />
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
But if I leave ProgramFilesFolder out then no directory is created.
<Directory Id="TARGETDIR" Name="SourceDir">
<Directory Id="ATest1" Name="ATest1">
<Directory Id="ATest2" Name="ATest2">
<Directory Id="CONTROL_PANEL" Name="ControlPanel" />
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
The project builds without errors and installs without error, but no
directory is created and the single file in the install is not present on
the drive. Is this the way to create a directory? The directories look
like they map in Orca.
Thank you,
cgrue
