My question about "where to install samples" digressed to the following
question, for which I didn't get a clear answer. If anyone feels like
clarifying further on the proper way to do this, I'd appreciate it.
I have two components that each install a shortcut into a sub-folder of
ProgramMenuFolder. However, after coding that up in WiX, validating gave
me warning ICE064 about needing RemoveFile for that sub-folder. To solve
this I added a RemoveFolder element to each component that adds the
sub-folder.
I was wondering if this is the proper way to ensure that the folder gets
removed. It seems a little redundant and indirect, but I couldn't think
of anything better. Julie Campbell suggested that I could create a
component under the sub-folder itself containing a simple RemoveFolder
element. However, I'm unclear what the key for that component would be.
Consequently, adding the component with just the RemoveFolder element
gives me an ICE038 on validation.
I assume this is a common situation. What is the proper way to satisfy
ICE064 in this case? As I did it, with a RemoveFolder in every component
that installs a shortcut into that folder? Or something along the lines
of what Julie recommended? But if the latter, then how do I satisfy
ICE038?
Thanks for any insight you folks can provide.
