Hi Chaitanya, we have to create several empty folders, too. We simply create the directory structure in our .wxs files and add a Component inside each empty folder. The Component has the attributes KeyPath=no, NeverOverwrite=no, Permanent=no, Win64=yes (we have a 64bit-only installer) and Location=local.
In the Component, we define the CreateFolder element. Additionally, we define some permissions for certain users with the util:PermissionEx element. <Directory Id="Log" Name="Log" > <Component Id="LogFolder" Guid="DEADBEEF-BEEF-BEEF-BEEF-C0FFEEBABE00" KeyPath="no" NeverOverwrite="no" Permanent="no" Win64="yes" Location="local"> <CreateFolder> <util:PermissionEx CreateChild="yes" CreateFile="yes" Delete="yes" Read="yes" ReadAttributes="yes" ReadExtendedAttributes="yes" ReadPermission="yes" Traverse="yes" GenericRead="yes" GenericWrite="yes" User="[USERNAME]" /> </CreateFolder> </Component> </Directory> Kind regards, Dirk Räder On 2013-10-25 13:12, Chaitanya wrote: > Hi, > In my Source file I am having a lot of empty folders.But,it is not > creating the empty folders through "Heat or WixEdit".How to create an > empty folders through wix. > > -- > Thanks & Regards, > Chaitanya. > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > October Webinars: Code for Performance > Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance. > Explore tips for MPI, OpenMP, advanced profiling, and more.
