DestinationDirs (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

The [DestinationDirs] section is required and describes the names and paths of the destination directories for your application on the target device.

[DestinationDirs]
file_list_section = 0,subdir
[file_list_section = 0,subdir]
[DefaultDestDir=0,subdir]
[shortcut_list_section=0,subdir]

Parameters

  • file_list_section
    Section name used in "[DefaultInstall] CopyFiles". For more information, see DefaultInstall.

    Note

    If a value for DefaultDestDir is not specified, you must also list in this section the file_list_sections that the CopyFiles key specifies in the [DefaultInstall] section. Conversely, if a value for DefaultDestDir is specified, and you do not specify the destination directory for any file_list_sections, the destination directory for that section will be set to the value specified by DefaultDestDir.

  • subdir
    Destination directory, which uses the format of an absolute target device path, a directory macro, or the install directory %InstallDir%.
  • shortcut_list_section
    Optional directory that you can use to specify where the shortcut file is located after it is created. For more information, see CEShortcuts.

    Note

    If a value for DefaultDestDir is not specified, you must also list in this section the shortcut_list_sections that the CopyFiles key specifies in the [DefaultInstall] section. Conversely, if a value for DefaultDestDir is specified, and you do not specify the destination directory for any shortcut_list_sections, the destination directory for that shortcut will be set to the value specified by DefaultDestDir.

The following [DestinationDirs] code example uses the string %CE2%, which corresponds to the Windows directory, and the string %CE1%, which corresponds to the Program Files directory:

[DestinationDirs]
Files.Common   = 0,%CE1%\My Subdir
Files.Shared   = 0,%CE2%
