path with \\..\\ inside

Postby maurosturaro » Thu May 10, 2007 8:51 am

I have a setup that in my manual test works but in my integration with TFS Builds where the path come from variables (I've used a compiler variables #buildpath# in file names) have some problem when is like:
{...}\\BuildType\\..\\Sources\\..\\Binaries\\Debug\\{...}


I've seen that this happens only for services and not for files.
In the uncompressed setup I see folder like this:
{...}\\data\\OFFLINE\\3C33A47B\\723DB1A3\\Myfile.exe
foreach Install Files in the setup.
but with the services the names is:
{...}data\\OFFLINE\\c_\\documents and settings\\mauro\\documenti\\visual studio 2005\\projects\\myproduct\\debug\\myservices.exe

foreach Install Service in the setup.
And when the original path contains ".." the folder si empty.
