Possible bug?

Postby [MS]Mark » Wed Dec 08, 2004 6:56 am

I've noticed that all the projects I'm creating the target folder and shortcut folder paths are not being populated correctly - they seem to take the Manufacturer string and then append the Product name...

So if I have a Product called A and a Manufacturer Z it would have the paths as $PROGRAMFILES$\\Z A - surely this should acutally be $PROGRAMFILES$\\Z\\A? It's not too much work to change it manually but it is a bit odd that it's not following the convention of Manufacturer\\Product...

Yes, this is by design. We noticed that all Microsoft applications follow the convention Program Files\\Microsoft XXX, instead of Program Files\\Microsoft\\XXX. So we decided to follow their practice, not their advice :lol:

Just search for and edit the TARGETDIR variable in your script, it gets assigned this value once and should be pretty easy to customize.

Thanks - thought I had something setup wrong as all the others do it with the \\ in between...
