如何使用WiX在
Windows开始菜单中创建子文件夹(多个级别)？
目前,我可以把我的快捷方式放在开始菜单中,但只能在程序(开始/程序/ MyFolder)下的一个文件夹中,但是我想更深入地嵌入我的快捷方式(开始/程序/ MyPlatform / MyProduct /等等).我尝试了不同的组合,但唉.
<DirectoryRef Id="startmenuMyProduct">
<Component Id="ApplicationShortcut" Guid="{PUT-SOME-GUID-HERE}">
<Shortcut Id="ApplicationstartmenuShortcut"
Name="Configure My Product"
Description="Add or remove this and that"
Target="[MYPRODUCTDIR]ConfigureMyProduct.exe"
WorkingDirectory="MYPRODUCTDIR"/>
<RemoveFolder Id="startmenuMyProduct"
On="uninstall"/>
<RemoveFolder Id="startmenuMyPlatform"
On="uninstall"/>
<RegistryValue Root="HKCU"
Key="SOFTWARE\MyCompany\MyPlatform\My Product"
Name="Installed"
Type="integer"
Value="1"
KeyPath="yes"/>
</Component>
</DirectoryRef>
<!-- Shortcut to the configuration utility in the Windows Start menu -->
<Directory Id="ProgramMenuFolder">
<!--<Directory Id="startmenuMyPlatform" Name="MyPlatform">-->
<Directory Id="startmenuMyProduct" Name="My Product" />
<!--</Directory>-->
</Directory>
令人感兴趣的是,MSI需要创建一个注册表值来检测组件是否已经安装.如果我们希望为所有快捷方式创建一个这样的注册表值,那么我们必须将所有的快捷方式都放在一个组件中.
幸运的是,可以通过使用Shortcut element上的Directory属性创建跨多个目标目录的组件.
<!-- shortcuts to applications in the start menu -->
<DirectoryRef Id="ProgramMenuProductFolder">
<Component Id="ProgramMenuShortcutsComponent" Guid="PUT-GUID-HERE">
<!-- create folders -->
<CreateFolder Directory="ProgramMenuvendorFolder" />
<CreateFolder Directory="ProgramMenuProductFolder" />
<CreateFolder Directory="ProgramMenuSubFolder" />
<!-- remove folder -->
<RemoveFolder Id="RemoveProgramMenuvendorFolder"
Directory="ProgramMenuvendorFolder"
On="uninstall" />
<RemoveFolder Id="RemoveProgramMenuProductFolder"
Directory="ProgramMenuProductFolder"
On="uninstall" />
<RemoveFolder Id="RemoveProgramMenuProductSubFolder"
Directory="ProgramMenuProductSubFolder"
On="uninstall" />
<!-- main shortcut -->
<Shortcut
Id="MainShortcut"
Name="My Product"
Target="[SomeInstalledFolder]app1.exe" />
<!-- shortcut in subfolder -->
<Shortcut
Id="SubFolderShortcut"
Name="mySubFolderShortcut"
Target="[SomeInstalledFolder]app2.exe"
Directory="ProgramMenuProductSubFolder" />
<!--
RegistryValue whichs serves as KeyPath
-->
<RegistryValue
Root="HKCU"
Key="Software\Myvendor\MyProduct"
Name="InstalledstartmenuShortcuts"
Type="integer"
Value="1" />
</Component>
</DirectoryRef>
<!-- shortcut directories -->
<Directory Id="ProgramMenuFolder">
<Directory Id="ProgramMenuvendorFolder" Name="Myvendor">
<Directory Id="ProgramMenuProductFolder" Name="MyProduct">
<Directory Id="ProgramMenuProductSubFolder" Name="MySubFolder" />
</Directory>
</Directory>
</Directory>
