Hi All,
I have the requirement of creating an installer that on executing will
install to the location "C:\Energy Solutions
International\PipelineOptimizer 6.0.0" the following 5 directories:
db,data,engine,security, gui. These five directories are being harvested
from a location using Heat. Below is the structure of the Wix source
file i have:
<Property Id="CopyDestination"
Value="$(var.copyRoot)\$(var.rootFolder)\$(var.installFolder)"/>
<Directory Id='TARGETDIR' Name='SourceDir'>
<Directory Id='EnergySolutions' Name="Energy Solutions
International">
<Directory Id='TORT' Name='PipelineOptimizer 6.0.0'>
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
<SetDirectory Id="EnergySolutions" Value="[WindowsVolume]Energy
Solutions International"/>
<Feature Id='Complete' Title='Tort Installer' Description='Tort
Installer' Level='1'>
<ComponentGroupRef Id='db'/>
<ComponentGroupRef Id='data'/>
<ComponentGroupRef Id='engine'/>
<ComponentGroupRef Id='security'/>
<ComponentGroupRef Id='gui'/>
<ComponentRef Id="PreferencesFile" />
</Feature>
</Product>
I want to copy a file called preferences.xml that will be found under
C:\Energy Solutions International\PipelineOptimizer 6.0.0\gui\screens on
installation to the c:\programdata\Energy Solutions
International\PipelineOptimizer 6.0.0 as this file will be used by an
exe that would be present in the location of the installation at
C:\Energy Solutions International\PipelineOptimizer 6.0.0\gui
I am aware that the CopyFile would be used to do so but am not able to
use it properly. Please suggest some solution around the same.
I have tried something like the below:
<DirectoryRef Id="TORT">
<Component Id="PreferencesFile"
Guid="{A4E1FFCE-1534-43BF-AA2B-CDFD39381720}">
<File Id="FilePref" Source="gui\screens\preferencel.xml"
KeyPath="yes">
<CopyFile Id="Copy" DestinationProperty="CopyDestination"/>
</File>
</Component>
</DirectoryRef>
But this does not work. Please provide some help on this as i am stuck
on this.
Regards,
Suvra Jyoti
