<Icon Id="ProductIcon.ico" SourceFile="$(sys.SOURCEFILEDIR)logo.ico" />
<Shortcut Id="ProductShortcut" Name="$(var.displayName)" Description="The $(var.displayName) application." IconIndex="0" Icon="ProductIcon.ico" Target="[#Main.exe]" /> The Shortcut/@Directory attribute says which Start menu folder the shortcut will be created in. If you prefer, you can omit it and place the component containing the shortcut under a [directory or] directoryref to the Start menu folder where you want it to appear. Shortcut/@WorkingDirectory is a directory Id. When the shortcut is run, the current directory for the new process will be set to that location. As you can see in the sample, Shortcut/@Icon is the Id of an icon element. Iconindex is 0 for an ico file. If you specify an exe or dll instead of an ico file, IconIndex is the index of an icon resource in that file. -----Original Message----- From: Subhasree Ramesh [mailto:subhasree.ram...@live.in] Sent: 06 April 2011 12:22 To: WIX Toolkit Subject: [WiX-users] Shortcut creation using WIX Hi All, I found the WIX structure for shortcut entry in MSI. I need some clarity on the attributes, Directory, WorkingDirectory, Icon and IconIndex. What needs to be the value for Directory and WorkingDirectory, if the shortcut for App1.msi need to be under ProgramFilesMenu/StartMenu/Applications? There is an Icon table which holds the Name and Data of icons. What exactly need to be under this Data attribute? A sample code will be of great help. Thanks in advance.
