Wilbert - When it's a recompilation for Windows of Unix software, spaces can be a problem...
S.P. - I have the same problem (I compile a distribution of Perl for Microsoft Windows and create its installer using WiX.) For how to connect it in to an WixUI_InstallDir UI, look at lines 152-230 of the following file: (the B_ClearFolder key is on line 104 of that file.) http://fisheye2.atlassian.com/browse/cpan/trunk/Perl-Dist-WiX/share/Main.wxs.tt?r=11797 For the custom action you'll need, here's source you can use: http://fisheye2.atlassian.com/browse/cpan/trunk/Perl-Dist-WiX/src/ClearFolderCA/ClearFolderCA/CheckForSpaces.cpp?r=11626 --Curtis Jewell On Tue, 30 Mar 2010 10:11 +0200, "Wilbert van Dolleweerd" <wilb...@arentheym.com> wrote: > Should properly written Windows software not be able to work with a space > in > a path? > > I mean: installation usually occurs in 'Program Files'.
