I'm using the 3502 build (shame on me, should have tried 3509) to make an
installer for my app. It was a success with WiX2, but I decided to move to
WiX3 for the new featureset.
A chunk of my installation looks like this:
<RemoveFolder Id="ProgramMenuDir" Directory="ProgramMenuDir"
On="uninstall" />
<File Id="BinFile0" Vital="yes" Name="AccessDatabase.exe"
Source="C:\KILLERAPP5tst\Beta6\DIST\Bin\AccessDatabase.exe">
<Shortcut Id="AccessDatabase.lnk" Directory="ProgramMenuDir"
Name="KILLERAPP5-Outputter Database" Advertise="yes" />
</File>
<File Id="BinFile18" Vital="yes" Name="KILLERAPP5.exe"
Source="C:\KILLERAPP5tst\Beta6\DIST\Bin\KILLERAPP5.exe">
<Shortcut Id="KILLERAPP5.lnk" Directory="ProgramMenuDir"
Name="Killer 5 For Windows" Advertise="yes" />
<Shortcut Id="KILLERAPP5HASH.lnk" Directory="ProgramMenuDir"
Name="Input Hash Generator" Arguments="HASH" Advertise="yes" />
<Shortcut Id="BatchPrep.lnk" Directory="ProgramMenuDir"
Name="Batch Mode File Generator" Arguments="BATCH" Advertise="yes" />
<Shortcut Id="CRSHCLN.lnk" Directory="ProgramMenuDir"
Name="KILLERAPP5 Crash Cleanup" Arguments="CLEAN" Advertise="yes" />
<netfx:NativeImage Id="MyNGenKILLERAPP5" />
</File>
<File Id="BinFile24" Vital="yes" Name="KillerPlot.exe"
Source="C:\KILLERAPP5tst\Beta6\DIST\Bin\KillerPlot.exe">
<Shortcut Id="KillerPlot.lnk" Directory="ProgramMenuDir"
Name="KILLERAPP5-Outputter Output" Advertise="yes" />
</File>
<Directory Id="ProgramMenuFolder" Name="PMenu">
<Directory Id="ProgramMenuDir" Name="Killer 5.0.0 Beta Nov-2007">
<Directory Id="ProgramMenuDirM5Doc" Name="KILLERAPP5 Documents" />
<Directory Id="ProgramMenuDirKillPltDoc" Name="Killer-Plot Documents"
/>
</Directory>
</Directory>
( Names of individual files have been changed to protect their identity :) )
Here's the problem - when I actually install it, all the shortcuts point to
AccessDatabase.exe. At least all the ones inside ProgramMenuDir.
Here's another problem - the (start menu) shortcuts don't have any icons. At
least they don't until you click on the given shortcut for the first time.
Ideas?
