VS2005_SCHEMAS_DIR is a Property not a Directory. You can't create a
DirectoryRef to a Property. To set a Directory to the value of a Property use
the SetDirectory element. For example:
<SetDirectory Id="Dir_ParentOfMyProjectTemplatesVS2005"
Value="[VS2005_SCHEMAS_DIR]" Sequence="both" />

Subject: [WiX-users] How do you use VS2005_PROJECTTEMPLATES_DIR, etc... from
WixVSExtension
I'm trying to use
<PropertyRef Id='VS2005_SCHEMAS_DIR'/>
<PropertyRef Id='VS2005_PROJECTTEMPLATES_DIR'/>
<PropertyRef Id='VS2005_ITEMTEMPLATES_DIR'/>
<PropertyRef Id='VS90_SCHEMAS_DIR'/>
<PropertyRef Id='VS90_PROJECTTEMPLATES_DIR'/>
<PropertyRef Id='VS90_ITEMTEMPLATES_DIR'/>
For things like
<DirectoryRef Id="VS2005_PROJECTTEMPLATES_DIR">
<Directory Id="Dir_MyProjectTemplatesVS2005" Name="MyTemplates">
<Component Id="Comp_ProjectTemplatesVS2005" DiskId="1"
Guid="$(var.Comp_ProjectTemplatesVS2005_Guid)">
But I'm getting the following link errors
Unresolved reference to symbol 'Directory:VS2005_PROJECTTEMPLATES_DIR' in
section 'Fragment:'. Installer\Integration.wxs 302

Unresolved reference to symbol 'Directory:VS2005_ITEMTEMPLATES_DIR' in section

I'm pretty sure I've got the correct WixVSExtension referenced, since these
references
<PropertyRef Id='VS2005DEVENV'/>
<CustomActionRef Id="VS2005Setup"/>
seem to work (I don't get any reference errors about VS2005Setup or
VS2005DEVENV)
<Custom Action="VS2005Setup" Before="InstallFinalize"> VS2005DEVENV
</Custom>
<Extension Id="myext" ContentType="text/xml">
<Verb Id="Open" Command="&Open in Visual Studio 2005"
TargetProperty="VS2005DEVENV" Argument=""%1"" />
</Extension>
I'm using version 3.0.4123.0
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
-Ian
