Hi,
I have a problem with a property, used in a CopyFile element, which either
should contain a complete subdirectory
path, or be empty. I guess my problem has a solution, but I don’t know how to
do it.
Description to follow.
If application XXX is installed, the environmental parameter XXX_HOME will be
defined to a root directory, e.g.
XXX_HOME = "C:\XXX\sub"
When installing my application, I want to copy some files to the directory
"C:\XXX\sub\lib\knowledge\", or
"[XXXHOME]\lib\knowledge\", provided application XXX is installed (symbol
XXX_HOME exists).
I've tried the following customer actions:
<InstallExecuteSequence>
<Custom Action='SETXXXHOME' After='AppSearch'/>
<Custom Action='SETXXXKNOWLEDGE' After='AppSearch'/>
</InstallExecuteSequence>
<CustomAction Id="SETXXXHOME" Property="XXXHOME" Value="[%XXX_HOME]"
Return="check" Execute="immediate" />
<CustomAction Id="SETXXXKNOWLEDGE" Property="XXXKnowledgeCat"
Value="[XXXHOME]\lib\knowledge\" Return="check" Execute="immediate" />
in order to use the subdirectory property XXXKnowledgeCat in a CopyFile element:
<File Id='ZZZ.KM' Name='ZZZ.KM' KeyPath="yes" DiskId='1'
Source='km_files\ZZZ.KM' >
<CopyFile Id="cfZZZ.KM" DestinationProperty="XXXKnowledgeCat" />
</File>
This works fine, if application XXX was installed, but if not, property XXXHOME
will be empty (or does not exist),
while property XXXKnowledgeCat will be defined as "\lib\knowledge\", and that
will, of course, not do in the CopyFile
element. I would like the property XXXKnowledgeCat to be empty, causing the
CopyFile element not to have any effect,
when application XXX was not installed to the target machine.
How could this be accomplished?
Med vänlig hälsning/Regards/さようなら
