Hello,
I have a problem when trying to use FileInfo or DirectoryInfo classes in a
managed C# CA.
Project Layout:
1. BootstrapperApplication
- Install VCR8, VCR9, NetFX3.5, Apache, PHP, MySQL Server
- Install our software (the wix project for our software is referenced
by the BA, see point 2)
2. Software MSI
- Call MySQLInstanceConfig.exe (after InstallInitialize)
- Copy all files
- Create some registry keys
- Call CA (before InstallFinalize)
Well, I have a strange behavior with the last mentioned CA:
In my product node I declare a property:
<Property Id="PROP_MYSQL_PATH"
Value="[ProgramFilesFolder]$(var.MYSQL_NAME)\" />
Then, in my CA I do the following:
String givenPath = session["PROP_MYSQL_PATH"];
When I log that string variable, it looks completely fine:
Ø LOG: "got string givenPath as param: C:\Programme\MySQL Server 5\"
BUT, when I create a FileInfo or DirectoryInfo with that string:
DirectoryInfo d = new DirectoryInfo(givenPath);
Ø DirectoryInfo object created from 'C:\Programme\MySQL Server 5\'
Ø d.FullName => C:\WINDOWS\Installer\MSI19.tmp-\C:\Programme\MySQL Server 5\
Of course, now when checking if the directory or file exists, it returns false
and an exception is thrown. So, anyone has an idea, on how to get rid of that
'C:\WINDOWS\Installer\MSI19.tmp-\'-part of the DirectoryInfo/FileInfo objects ?
Any suggestion is highly appreciated!
Herzliche Grüße / Kind regards
Hendryk Irmischer
