Hi folks,
I'm using the new heat dir crawler with following options:
heat.exe dir <checkdir> -ag -ke ...
this will add Guid="*" for empty directories. (see below)
<Directory Id="dirCD72679E1B889C76ED32AD249638C5AE" Name="checkdir">
<Component Id="cmpC75F771B8B95C273CF288245AAB8D6BF" Guid="*" KeyPath="yes">
<CreateFolder />
</Component>
</Directory>
But this is not valid for autogenerated Guids.
My solution is currently to remove the asterisk and use an empty GUID.
<Component Id="cmpC75F771B8B95C273CF288245AAB8D6BF" Guid="" KeyPath="yes">
I also use Guid="" for Components which contains only <RemoveFolder>
<Component Id="C__RemoveShortcutHelp" Guid="">
<RemoveFolder Id="RemoveShortcutHelp" On="uninstall" />
</Component>
First I'm wondering if this is a proper solution or if this is forbidden by any
rule (e.g. components rule).
Second, if this is valid I want to ask if this could be added as default
bahavior for -ag -ke heat parameter combination.
Many thanks in advance
Dominik
