I've run into a problem that sounds fairly simple to resolve, however,
I've been spinning my wheels on it for a while.
I've created a CustomAction that requires the install path parameter.
However, the string does not come across correctly in my arguments of
the exe because of the "\". I need to set it to "/", but my wxs will
not recognize the path.
I've tried all of the following:
C:\Program Files\MyPath\ -- produces incorrect string in exe (C:\Program
Files\MyPath")
C:\\Program Files\\MyPath\\ -- produces incorrect string in exe
(C:\Program Files\MyPath")
C:/Program Files/MyPath/ -- produces error when running MyInstall.msi
(Could not access network location C:/Program Files/MyPath.)
[C:\Program Files\MyPath\] -- produces error when running MyInstall.msi
(Could not access network location [C:\Program Files\MyPath\].)
<Property Id="INSTALLDIR">C:\Program Files\MyPath\</Property>
<Binary Id="configupdater"
SourceFile="c:\temp\my_csharp_executable.exe" />
<CustomAction
Id="MyAction"
ExeCommand="[mybinary] "[INSTALLDIR]""
BinaryKey="mybinary" Return="check" Execute="immediate"
/>
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
~mark
